USEFUL! Cheaper train tickets are available to people requesting asylum !

Moving about can be difficult while applying for asylum. But the Bretagne Region trains offer to asylum applicants a 75% discount on train tickets, available through the « Actüel » Card. Civic godmothers and godfathers can help their godsons fill out the card's application form. :-)

The Actüel card offers a 75% discount on all trips taken in a TER Bretagne train or bus, as well as on trains to and from Pays de la Loire. To be eligible to the card, one must fill at least ONE of the following conditions :

• be registered at Pôle Emploi Bretagne as a jobseeker for more then 4 months (categories 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 8), without allocation or with an allocation below  80% of the French Minimum Wage « SMIC » (915,20€ net/month) ; 
• be an « allocation de solidarité Spécifique (ASS) » beneficiary ; 
• be a social minimum beneficiary : either of « RSA socle » (activity allowance excluded), or of the Elderly people allocation « Allocation de solidarité aux personnes âgées (ASPA ) », or of the Asylum applicants allocation : « Allocation de Demandeurs d'Asile (ADA) » ; 
• be in a specific reinsertion work contract : « Contrat d’accompagnement vers l’emploi (CAE) », « Contrat d’avenir, CIVIS » ; 
• be a beneficiary of Handicapped Adult Allocation, « Allocation adulte handicapé (AAH) », or of the temporary allocation « Allocation temporaire d'attente (ATA) » ;
