People on unpaid leave

  • If you receive income support and went out on unpaid leave at your employers wish or on your own initiative in wartime - you will continue to be entitled to income support, and during the time you are not working, your work income will not be accounted for. You must send us a employer certificate regarding your exit on unpaid leave.
    You can send this certificate directly to the handling branch using the document delivery service of the website.
  • If you are not entitled to unemployment benefits or if your income from unemployment is low - it is advised to check you eligibility for income support benefit. To see the conditions of entitlement, click here.
