How to Apply for a Mobility Allowance
- Apply through Nettikassa LINKKI. If you cannot use Nettikassa, send your application by post — you can download the application form at the bottom of this page. We do not accept applications or attachments by email.
- Submit your application no later than three months after the start of your employment or training.
- Include your employment contract or another written statement from the employer outlining the key terms of employment.
- If you are applying for a mobility allowance for training, also include details of the training.
If you are not receiving earnings-related unemployment allowance, first apply for it from Nettikassa LINKKI for the days you have been unemployed.
If you are working part-time: submit both the mobility allowance application and the earnings-related allowance application, which shows your working days.
The allowance is paid retroactively in periods of four weeks or one month.
