Unemployed in Denmark

Dear a-kasser,
I started working in Denmark as a PhD student the 1st of september 2014. Also I am a member of IDA. But I would like to know what is going to happen when I finish my PhD (August 2017). I would like to know if being member of IDA imply to be registered at a-kasser.

Since you already are member of IDA I suppose you are some kind of engineer.
Asa student (I assume that PHD is still regarded as study? not work?)
If PHD is study you can apply for FREE study-membership of an a-kasse.
It will give you some benefits to apply as soon as possible.
Please see our guide: http://www.a-kasser.dk/students.
For have free membership you must not have income over DKK 211,900/year,
and if you are older than 30 years there are som further restrictions.
In this case please contact the a-kasse of you choice.

If you are not egilible for FREE membership is is important that you
follow the rules for new graduates, please see
http://www.a-kasser.dk/graduates.

Your membership of IDA has nothing to do with membership of a-kasse.
Membership of a-kasse give your financial safety if you get unemployed,
membership of IDA does not.

Hope it helps
