Frequently asked questions

We update the application processing status every weekday morning.

The processing time indicates the average time in which the application is accepted for processing, counting from its arrival.

The Arrival date of the applications being processed tells you which day we will process the applications received as soon as possible.

Please note that not all applications can be processed at the same pace. Processing times may vary due to the investigation of different applications.

The number of applications waiting to be processed indicates the number of applications in the queue.

Please note that all applications can not be processed at the same pace. Processing times may differ due to the investigation work needed for different kind of applications. We process these applications as quickly as possible, but due to their nature they can take more time. However, the majority of applications proceed according to the processing status showed above.

Follow-up applications for four calendar weeks with only unemployed time and those that are a direct continuation of a previous application are paid out every four weeks. The payment schedule is staggered in accordance with the receipt of the application. If a salary payment day falls on the application it moves to the section “Follow-up application with working days, salary or compensation” in the table above, i.e. to the follow-up applications queue.

The daily allowances of follow-up applications will be paid within 1-2 days after the receipt day.

Possible exceptions may apply during weeks that include midweek holidays.

During bank holidays, it is good to be prepared for a different payment day than usual. 

eService is open every day around the clock, but we process applications on weekdays.

We process applications in order of arrival. You will receive the earnings-related allowance into your account a few days after processing at the earliest. If we need more information on the application, we will contact you. You can check the arrival date of your application in eService.
