When did you receive your decision?

Employer certificate

When assessing whether you meet the income requirement, we obtain your income details directly from Skatteverket. In many cases, you can provide the additional information we need about your employment yourself. However, we may sometimes require further details from your employer, usually regarding your most recent position. If more information is needed, we will contact either you or your employer directly.

Certificate from the employer

When we assess whether someone meets the income requirement, we collect income details directly from Skatteverket.

We also need information showing that the person no longer has their job and why the employment ended. These details must be confirmed by documents from the employer, for example, an employment certificate or notice of termination. Most often, this is about proving that the most recent employment has ended, when it ended, and why it ended.

When you apply for compensation, you must report the jobs and employments you have had during the qualifying period and explain why you became unemployed. Here are some examples:

  • If you had a fixed-term employment: upload a copy of the employment contract

  • If you were dismissed: upload a copy of the notice of termination

  • If you agreed on severance pay: upload a copy of the agreement

  • If you resigned: state the reasons for resigning and report the last day of employment

  • If we need more details, we will contact either you or the employer directly.

Sometimes the easiest way is to provide all details in one form. Ask your employer to fill in this form. Please note that the form should be completed by your immediate manager, HR, or a payroll administrator.
