However, the PFU's "verdict" regarding the denial can be altered without the need to immediately and fully pay off the debt.
"If a person was denied a subsidy for the following year due to outstanding utility debts, they can provide documents proving payment of the debts or a debt restructuring agreement," the official explained.
