unemployment benefit
Hi,
So 11 months ago I resign from my researcher position (on paper non time limited employment, but I only had a 3 year research grant and if I was not getting more research fund I would have to quite anyway). After the 2 years, I decided to transfer the grant to another university to have better collaboration and re-gain some motivation. So I got 11 month employment there, which just ended. Do I have right to benefit?

Since you have worked for 11 months you fulfil the work requirement. I hope that you also are e member with Akademikernas a-kassa -12 months is required.
In order to get benefit you also must have finished your thesis and be registred at arbetsförmedlingen.

I am unemployed and looking for a job. It's been 4 years since I moved to Sweden. Do I have any right of benefit as unemployed. I'm registered with the employment service for job help but still looking to find one.
Besy regards,

You have to meet three basic conditions to eligable for unemployment benefits.
- The membership condition - been a member of an a-kassa for 12 months.
- The working requirement - during a period of 12 months worked for at least 6 months, at least 80 hours per calendar month. We usually look at the last year. The time may be extended, for example, to parental leave, completed full-time studies or sickness benefit.
- Registered at arbetsförmedlingen - you have to look for and take work in Sweden.
If you have not been a memeber in an a-kassa for 12 months, you can still receive compensation based on your working hours. The basic benefit is maximun SEK 365 per day.Log in to Mina sidor and fill in the application Ansökan om ersättning and upload a *Arbetsgivarintyg - employer's certificate. When we have received your application we will review it. If something is missing or incomplete we will contact you. As soon as we have the information we need, we will make a decision and post it in Mina sidor.
*Your employer is required to issue a certificate for 12 months of work. In order to meet the conditions and to be eligible for benefits, you must have worked for at least six months, 80 hours per month. The benefits is always an average of the income for the 12 most recent months. We always divide your income by 12 and. If you for example have worked for eight months we divide the total income by twelve.
Usually the payroll administrator completes the certificate for you. Contact your previous employer and ask them to fill in it at www.arbetsgivarintyg.nu.
