President William Ruto will on Tuesday morning assent to the Affordable Housing Bill at State House, Nairobi.
The event was scheduled for Monday at 8 am but it has now been pushed to Tuesday.
This comes after Parliament on Thursday last week passed the legislation that will anchor the affordable housing programme in law.
The controversial Bill was vehemently opposed by Azimio lawmakers.
Once it becomes law, Kenyans will from this month pay the mandatory housing levy.
The 1.5 per cent tax from both the employer and the employee will take effect at the end of the month.
The courts abolished the levy in January but the Kenya Kwanza administration quickly moved to have it back through legislation.
