About visits to the website and My pages of the Insurance Administration, e.g. computer identifiers (IP addresses) and web metrics.

As mentioned, various data are examined when the place of residence is being examined, including an IP address that can give an indication of where the person in question lives.

IP addresses are examined in the light of other data available in each individual case and are therefore not the only benefit of a case.

If the person's explanation is considered reasonable, the matter is over and nothing further is done.

The Insurance Adminisration get this information from:

• the individuals themselves,

• private parties,

• public institutions,

• Commissioner of Taxation,

• Labor Office,

• Immigration Office,

• educational institutions,

• municipalities,

• Iceland's health insurance,

• customs authorities,

• Icelandic National Registry and more.

All payments to TR must be applied for and payments are based on the applicant meeting certain conditions. In the application, the necessary information must be provided in order to determine whether the right to payment exists.

The applicant or payee is obliged to participate in the handling of a case for supervision by providing the requested and necessary information.

The payee is obliged to notify TR of changes in income and if there are changes in circumstances, for example:

• when cohabitation begins,

• upon separation,

• marriage,

• divorce

• and transfer of legal residence.
  

TR can call the applicant or payee for an interview in order to obtain more detailed information. If TR cannot handle a case due to lack of necessary information, no payments will be made until it is corrected.

If there is a reasoned suspicion that payments are being made on the basis of false or misleading information, TR can temporarily suspend payments while the matter is investigated. When investigating cases, the organization is authorized to obtain information from third parties such as, for example, a kindergarten or an employer.

When payment is made in excess of entitlements, the overpayment is generally deducted from payments to which the person may later become entitled or the person may demand repayment in another way.

Underpayments are paid to the person concerned.

After 12 months, interest is generally charged on claims and credits are paid with 5.5% annual interest, compare Art. 55. Act on Social Security no. 100/2007.

If the recipient of the payments proves to be a fraud, the payments are stopped and TR is authorized to demand repayment of the overpayment with a 15% surcharge, cf. Article 45 Act on Social Security no. 100/2007.
