Submitting a follow-up application is now faster

Filling in an earnings-related unemployment allowance application can now be done faster in our eService using the new express application function. An express application can be filled in,
  • if you have applied for earnings-related unemployment allowance in periods of one month or four calendar weeks,
  • there is no gap between applications,
  • the previous application period has been processed,
  • you are completely unemployed or laid off, and
  • there have been no other changes in your situation.
If all prerequisites are met, the system will offer the option automatically. Express applications, like other applications for daily allowance, are processed on a first-come, first-serve basis according to the type of application. With an express application, you can send us the application faster, but all follow-up applications are processed in the order in which they are received. You can find out which date’s applications we are processing at any given time on the website’s main page.
