Guide på engelska: Application for income support – online service guide

• You can find the Income support – Application and re-application online service here.
  
  
• When you log in to the online service using e-ID, your personal data will be downloaded from the Swedish Tax Agency, Skatteverket.
  
  
• If this is the first time you are applying for income support, you will need to provide details about the previous three months. For example, if you want to apply for income support for September, you will need to register your details for August, July and June.
  
  
• To apply for continued income support, you must register your details for the current month. You must always enter a number in each field. If you do not have any information, enter “0”. 

• Most details in the online service are mandatory and must be filled in. If you fail to fill in a field, you will receive a message and the box will turn red.
  
• If you are unsure about anything, click on the small question mark above each question.
  
  
• If you need to exit the application, you can save it and continue at a later time. The application will be marked as “ongoing” (Påbörjad) in My Pages (Mina Sidor). Click on it to continue the application. 

• If you have entered an amount, you must write the due date of the invoice.

• Before submitting your application, you must tick to confirm that you have read and understood the information.

• Once you have signed the application, you will receive confirmation that it has been submitted.

• If you are one of two people applying, the other person must also log in and sign before you can submit the application to us. 

The first time you apply, you must contact Mottagningsenheten för försörjningsstöd/ The Reception Unit for Income Support within two business days of submitting your application.
