Those receiving unemployment benefits must:
confirm job search every month,
report all income, part-time and contract work,
report if circumstances change.
This will help to avoid having to repay excessive compensation or payments being delayed.
It is necessary to confirm the job search even if the application is still being processed and also even if payments are postponed due to violations of the rules.
Report work and income
Extra income and other payments may affect the amount of unemployment benefits.
If a person does not report income, they will be overpaid and will have to refund the amount. Work should be reported on Directorate of labour´s My pages.
Other income to be reported:
Payments from the pension fund
Capital income, own or shared with a spouse
Revenue from the Social Insurance Administration
Circumstances change
Various changes can affect the right to unemployment benefits and therefore they need to be reported. If this is not done, payments may be delayed or stopped permanently.
This obligation to report changes also applies when payments have been postponed due to violation of the rules.
Consequences for breaking the rules
When payments are suspended, it applies from the date of the ruling.
