If you were denied participation in privatization on the basis that the right to it was already used by you earlier, try to challenge this conclusion by submitting documents received from the state registration authorities.
Instructions
Step 1
If at the time of the privatization of housing you were not yet 18 years old, ask your parents to show you the title deeds. Check the documents to find out if you took part in the privatization. However, even if you have been one of the homeowners since then, you still have the right to re-privatize.
Step 2
If for some reason you do not have access to documents confirming that you took (or did not take) part in the privatization, contact the Federal Registration Service for your area. Get an extract from the Unified State Register, where all the owners of the privatized housing should be indicated. To get the information you are interested in regarding the period before February 1, 1998, fill out the appropriate application at the BTI.
Step 3
If you are refused information on a matter of interest to you, use the services of one of the law firms that can help you for an appropriate fee.
Step 4
Contact the passport office (in the EIRTs - for residents of Moscow and some other cities) and take an extract from the house book, which should indicate who was registered in the apartment (house) at the time of privatization and had the right to it.
Step 5
Contact the tax office at the place of privatization and ask if you are included in the list of homeowners who are required to pay property tax. In the event that you did not participate in the privatization, the data concerning you in the tax office will not be available. Take a certificate confirming the lack of data about you as a homeowner.
Step 6
If you come from another city and are going to take part in the privatization of housing, be sure to receive similar certificates at the previous registration addresses.
