Federal State Institution “Federal Administration of the Savings and Mortgage System of Housing for Military Personnel” (“Rosvoenipoteka”) is an organization that provides assistance to military personnel participating in the “Military Mortgage” housing program. It is in charge of not only keeping track of savings, but also facilitating the process of purchasing real estate, from informing participants to processing and issuing targeted loans for the purchase of housing. Program participants can receive some of the services online using their Rosvoenipotek personal account.
Personal account features
The Rosvoenipotek personal account allows registered users to use the full functionality of the site and perform the following actions:
- Receive an answer from a specialist to a personal question regarding the operation of the mortgage savings system.
- View information about the status of your personal savings or mortgage account.

How can you use your military mortgage savings?
The funds available in a serviceman’s account can be accessed only after he has completed more than 20 years of service in the Army. After the death of an NIS participant who dies while performing his official duties, the right to use the accumulated funds passes to the heirs.
Funds can be used to pay off civilian real estate loans for the following categories of military personnel:
- dismissed due to health;
- dismissed due to retirement age;
- dismissed for family reasons or as a result of layoffs.
If the length of service is more than 10 years, then the mortgage payment contribution stops, and all obligations to repay the home mortgage are transferred to the owner. If a serviceman leaves before reaching ten years of service, his account is canceled and the funds are returned to the federal budget.
You can use your right to accumulated funds to purchase real estate with collateral, purchase housing through equity participation, as well as to pay the down payment for mortgage lending and monthly payments. Although the acquired housing space becomes the property of the soldier, it continues to be pledged to the bank and the state until the last payment for the home mortgage is paid off.
I would like to note that after reaching 20 years of military service in preferential terms, a participant in the mortgage system can use the accumulated funds at his own discretion and spend them not only on the purchase of real estate.
The number of requests for payment of their savings is also not limited by law, if the soldier continues to serve and has already used funds from an individual account once. Military personnel who have served 10 years but were dismissed on preferential terms also have a similar right.
If a soldier resigned from service in the Army on non-preferential grounds, but already used the money for the purchase of an apartment for its intended purpose, then it will need to be returned to the state within ten subsequent years from the date of dismissal, and the mortgage loan must be paid on its own, including interest, which will already be equal to refinancing rate of the Central Bank of Russia.
According to a request to the FSSP of Russia, funds that are in special NIS accounts are not the participant’s income and cannot be withheld to pay alimony to minor children and persons equated to the category to which alimony is due.

Military personnel's personal savings
A citizen who decides to connect his life with service in the armed forces of the Russian Federation automatically becomes a participant in the savings-mortgage system (NIS). The program provides for the opening of a personal account in the name of a military personnel. Funds are credited from the budget to the personal account to ensure the housing obligations of the Ministry of Defense to the contractor.
Personal savings are formed annually. The opportunity to purchase housing with a military mortgage appears before retirement, but not earlier than 3 years after registration in the NIS register. During this period, the amount of personal savings of the serviceman will be enough to provide a down payment on the mortgage.
At the beginning of 2020, the rules are relevant, but the government is developing amendments to the Federal Law on military mortgages. There are proposals to increase the time period allowing a citizen to take advantage of the benefit:
- Under current conditions, a contract soldier can use the savings after 3 years of service.
- According to the new rules, such an opportunity will arise only after 10 years of service.
Under the terms of a military mortgage, a citizen must be in service for at least 20 years, with the exception of a number of circumstances. During the entire period, savings are credited to the personal account in the amount provided for by the federal budget.
Registration
The registration procedure is quite simple and does not require additional confirmation. Absolutely anyone can register it; you just need to indicate your individual registration number, as well as the date of entry into the NIS register. Only after registering the client in this register will he have access to government support in the form of a preferential mortgage.
To complete the procedure, you should enter the address rosvoenipoteka.ru, then click the “Registration” link. When all the data is filled in along with the login and password, the site will confirm the success of the operation.

Accrual conditions
The size of the state subsidy for the military does not depend on rank, length of service, salary, or region. The amount is the same for all participants in the military mortgage.
If the contract is terminated before 10 years of service, the state stops payments. If a serviceman managed to use the mortgage funds and left service, he is obliged to reimburse everything with personal funds.
Changing the rules for creating savings
- Until 2020, personal savings were transferred to the account monthly. The total annual amount provided for by the federal budget was divided into 12 equal parts. A decision was made to make a one-time transfer of savings at the beginning of the year. The date for crediting funds was determined to be the period until March 20 of the current year.
- Since 2020, the amount of savings has been constantly changing, due to inflation. In 2020, the one-time benefit for military mortgages amounted to RUB 268,465.6. In 2020, the amount increased and is equal to 280,009.7 rubles.
- The bonus of innovations is the interest that goes to the military’s personal account from the income on the deposit. The greater the amount of savings, the better the financial situation of the account owner.
- The savings limit for military mortgages increases annually. You can count on this amount when purchasing a home. In 2020, the state assumed the obligation to pay mortgage payments in the amount of up to 2.2 million rubles. In 2020, the limit increased to 2.4 million rubles. This condition does not limit the serviceman’s choice of housing. But if its value exceeds the established limit for a military mortgage, the citizen will have to pay off the difference from his personal income.
