Minister Kurum stated in a post on his social media account, "Applications for the 'Century Housing Project' start today. Do you know how to apply?" According to the post, to reduce potential system congestion in e-Government applications, applications will only be accepted based on the last digit of the Turkish ID number during the first week of the campaign.
Applications for the project can be made through Ziraat Bank, Halk Bank, and Emlak Katılım Bank branches or via e-Government.

The video provided the following information regarding the application process:
"After logging into e-Government, click on the 'TOKİ Housing Workplace Application' screen. Select the 500,000 social housing project. Click the 'Confirm' button. After this preliminary application, the request that falls into the TOKİ system will be evaluated. After the review, banks will open an account in the name of the applicant. Then, the account number will be sent to the applicant via SMS. A 5,000 lira application fee must be deposited into this account via EFT, transfer, or ATM. If you do not deposit money into the account within the specified time, your application will be canceled. You can also track your application status on e-Government in the application list screen under the TOKİ tab."
