How do I apply for partial disability pension?

There is no separate application for partial disability pension. You apply for disability pension, and disability is assessed based on an integrated expert assessment. The result of this assessment will then determine the benefit entitlement. If the ability to participate in the labor market is assessed at 0-25%, eligibility for disability pension is established. However, if the ability to participate in the labor market is assessed at 26-50%, eligibility for partial disability pension is established.
