hej,
hvis du har fået registreret dig med dimittend-status i din A-kasse senest 14 dage efter afslutning af din første kandidatgrad, det vil sige du har dimittend-rettigheder i din A-kasse, kan du vente i op til 2 år med at anmode om dimittend-dagpenge i din A-kasse.
På den måde kan man senere gøre brug af sine dimittend-rettigheder i A-kasse, hvis man f.eks. springer fra den nye kandidatuddannelse, eller går på orlov.
At der som nævnt er en tidsgrænse på 2 år, skyldes at når en person anmoder om dagpenge i sin A-kasse, går A-kassen 3 år tilbage i tiden og ser om personen opfylder det såkaldte “indkomstkrav”. Indkomstkravet kan opfyldes ved indkomst fra arbejde, eller med en gennemført uddannelse af minimum 18 måneders varighed. For at opfylde indkomstkravet udelukkende via uddannelse, skal man mindst have studeret 1 år i den seneste 3 års periode.
Det er derfor man maksimalt kan vente 2 år med at anmode om dimittend-dagpenge i sin A-kasse.
Reglerne fremgår af Bekendtgørelse om indkomst- og beskæftigelseskravet for ret til dagpenge §4, stk. 5.Har du af en eller anden grund ikke husket at få registreret din dimittend-status i A-kassen efter afslutning af din første kandidatgrad, kan du ikke få dimittend-dagpenge hvis du stopper på din nye uddannelse/kandidat uden at have gennemført den.
Med venlig hilsen
Anders, A-kasser.dkHej,
det lyder til at din datter kun er blevet tilmeldt fagforening og desværre ikke A-kasse.
Det er dog ikke den store skade der er sket, men fordi din datter ikke har været gratis studiemedlem i mindst 1 år den dag hun afslutter sin uddannelse (14.6, når eksamen er bestået), så mu hun acceptere en venteperiode med dagpenge den første måned, det vil sige at hun ikke kan begynde at få dagpenge før ca. 15.7.Og dette kræver også at hun melder sig ind i en A-kasse, senest 14 dage efter afslutning af uddannelsen/bestået eksamen.
Imidlertid kan hun allerede nu melde sig ind med dimittendstatus, fordi vi er så tæt på den afsluttende eksamen. Medlemskab vil være gratis i den korte periode indtil den 14.6.
Det er op til jer/hende om hun melder sig ind nu eller venter til efter den 14.6…i begge tilfælde vil hun desværre få 1 måneds venteperiode med dagpenge.
At hun ikke har været medlem af en A-kasse under studiet har ikke andre konsekvenser (udover den 1 måneds venteperiode). Hun vil således modtage den normale dimittendsats som alle andre dimittender.
Håber det giver svar på dit spørgsmål, ellers vend tilbage.

Hej,
Først lidt generelt om dimittend-rettigheder
en kandidatuddannelse betragtes som en selvstændig uddannelse, og opfylder kravet om at uddannelsen skal have en varighed af mindst 18 måneder/3 semestre, og være offentligt anerkendt (det er den når du har fået SU).Du vil dermed kunne få dimittendsatsen i dagpenge. Hvor meget afhænger af om du er forsørger eller ej. Se mere i vores artikel om dimittend-reglen.
Da du har været medlem af A-kassen under dit studie undgår du 1 måneds venteperiode, så du kan få dagpenge fra dagen efter du har færdiggjort din kandidatuddannelse og indtil din orlov udløber (01.10.2021).
Du vil dog formentlig blive pålagt en karantæne på tre uger (111 timer), da du kan siges at være selvforskyldt ledig (orlov).Det forudsætter naturligvis at du ikke modtager løn, orlovsydelser eller andet. Ligesom det forudsætter at du står fuldt til rådighed for arbejdsmarkedet, det vil sige søger job, kommer til møder i A-kasse og Jobcenter m.m.
HUSK at du skal anmode din A-kasse om at ændre din status fra studerende til dimittend senest 14 dage efter du afslutter din uddannelse. Gør du det har du sikret dig ret til dimittend-dagpenge.

Hej,
hvis du ophører med at være selvstændig som din hovedbeskæftigelse, er der en “venteperiode”, hvor du ikke kan få dagpenge. Perioden er som udgangspunkt 3 uger, men hvis man ophører p.g.a. konkurs er perioden kun 1 uge.
Venteperioden løber fra dagen efter, virksomheden er dokumenteret ophørt.
Reglerne er beskrevet i Bekendtgørelse om selvstændig virksomhed i dagpengesystemet. §22 omhandler venteperiode.
Det er ikke den samme “karantæne” som en lønmodtager får som selvforskyldt ledighed. Men altså en venteperiode.
Håber det giver klarhed.

Hi,
in my answer I assume that you are going to complete a bachelor or master (kandidatuddannelse), not a PhD.
you are correct about that in regard to many situations/legislation Unemployment Benefits (“dagpenge”) is not seen as public assistance.
It is more seen like an private insurance you pay for and may or may not use.
However, specifically in relation to “Establishment card” the legislation (Udlændingeloven, §9a, stk. 2, nr. 10 og stk. 4) state that its a condition for getting an Establishment Card, that the person:
- do not receive assistance after “lov om aktiv socialpolitik” (this is “kontanthjælp”/public assistance), and
- the person must be able to support themselves through their own funds in the first year
- do not receive “Unemployment benefits” after the graduate rule.
So this requirement is specific for Establishment Card. And even though “Unemployment benefits” is not seen as public assistance, its still in some extend financed by the danish state.
Conclusion: You will not be able to get Unemployment benefits as graduate.
Earn rights as wage-earner:
The rules about Establishment Card dosen’t state that you can not receive Unemployment benefits for wage-earners (not after the graduate rule). So it can be relevant to join A-kasse in the sense that you may be able to earn rights as wage-earner. You can see the “normal” requirements for being eligible for Unemployment benefits here: https://www.a-kasser.dk/benefits/.
As non-EU citizen it is important that you can accept any job with one day notice, i.e. have the right residence permit, in case you want to apppy for Unemployment benefits. In the 2-year period with Establishment Card you can take any job with one-day notice. How your situation is after the Establishment Card expires, depends on whether can get a residence permit that gives you right to accept any job (not limited to specific job, employer etc).
Please post any comments here in the forum. Thanks

Hi,
no it will not affect the amount. You will only lose the 3 weeks.

Hi,
I assume that the “praktik” has been approved by the Jobcenter/A-kasse, and that you can receive dagpenge in the “praktik”-period.
So if you have met the requirements of being available for the labor-market, which you say you have – then you are eligible for dagpenge as normal.
In this case you will off course get you dagpenge for May paid out. It is AKA who should pay your dagpenge, because you have been member in AKA since 1 st May.
You must try to call AKA and ask them to contact Min A-kasse about the transfer.

Hi Lidia,
it is possible to get supplementary benefits (“supplerende dagpenge”) in case you have a part-time work together with receiving Unemployment benefits (“dagpenge”). However you must be available for FULL-time job while receiving supplementary benefits, meaning that you must apply for full-time jobs.
Its also a requirement that you can quit your current part-time without notice-period, i.e. you must be able to stop from day to day in your current part-time job. This is because you must be fully available for the labor-market, for being eligible for dagpenge.
Furthermore there is a limit of maximum 30 weeks where you can receive supplementary benefits. After that you must decide whether you want to keep your part-time job (and stop receiving dagpenge) OR you want to stop your part-time job (and go on full dagpenge).
If you think supplementary benefits is an option for you, then you must be approved for this in you A-kasse.
Graduates as well as wage-earners can apply for and get supplementary benefits. However for graduates the benefits amount (dagpengesats) is lower.

Hej,
gymnasiale uddannelser som f.eks. HF giver ikke ret til dagpenge, så du kan desværre ikke få dagpenge på dimittendvilkår.
Dagpengeret på dimittendvilkår kræver at man gennemfører en erhvervsrettet uddannelse af min. 18 måneders varighed. Se her hvilke uddannelser der giver ret til dagpenge.
Så i forhold til dagpenge vil din eneste mulighed være først og fremmest at melde dig ind i en A-kasse. Du skal være medlem i mindst 1 år før du kan få dagpenge på “normale vilkår” (ikke dimittend).
Endvidere kræves det at du har haft indkomst fra arbejde på mindst 243.996 kr. (2021) totalt i de sidste 3 år før du kan få ret til dagpenge.
I dagpengesystemet er der ikke nogle “smuthuller” eller andet man kan gøre for at få dagpenge. Det er kun via de to skitserede muligheder (uddannelse eller arbejde) at man kan optjene ret til dagpenge.
Jeg vil heller ikke tro at du kan få kontanthjælp, da du jo fortsat skal studere.
Så jeg kan desværre ikke se nogle muligheder. Jeg skal dog sige at vi, A-kasser.dk, primært har kendskab til dagpengereglerne, og ikke andre former for økonomisk hjælp.

Hi,
the rules about dagpenge are strict, so you can not do anything about it.
You should have signed up at latest 14 days after graduation from bachelor.
The A-kasse can not make exceptions to this rule.
Another thing: Be aware that Union membership is a different thing than A-kasse membership. You (only) need to be member of A-kasse if you want to gain right to dagpenge. However, because you can not earn right as graduate, you need to earn right as wage-earner.
You can find the generel requirements here: https://www.a-kasser.dk/benefits/

Hi,
it’s correct that its possible to get free memberhsip if you are under 30 years. However some requirements apply:
- Your education must be of a duration of at least 18 months/3 semestres
- You must have stayed in Denmark right before starting the education. And you must have the right to stay in Denmark after your education.
- You yearly income from work and SU must no exceed DKK 231,864
- You may not get any other kind of public support, other than SU.
So, without knowing your case, it can be that you do not meet all of the above mentioned requirements.
If you can not get free memberhsip, there is no reason to sign up for A-kasse before you have graduated.
Any kind of A-kasse membership is only relevant if you have the right to stay and work full-time in Denmark (when/if you become unemployed).
Best regards,

Hi,
work must alway be deducted in the month in which it is performed, regardless of when you get paid.
if your honorar is paid to you as “B-indkomst”, then the the calculation of your working hours and your deduction in unemployment benefits must be made after conversion of your income.
The conversion takes place according to a conversion rate which in 2021 is DKK 251.99.
So if you have agreed a fixed amount which is paid to you after 3 months, you must divide the amount per month with DKK 251.99.
And the result is the hours you must declare on your monthly “dagpengekort/ydelseskort”. You do this in the A-kasse’s online platform.
However, I will recommend you to also contact your A-kasse, to be sure this is the right way to do it. And you should always inform your A-kasse about job.
Any kind of job/earning during a 2-year dagpenge-period will result in a extension of the 2-year period in the end. The extension will be in the ratio 1:2, which means that 1 hour of work gives two hours more dagpenge in the last end.
By this way you can extend your dagpengeperiode with maximum 1 year (1,924 hours), so your total dagpenge-period will be 3 years.
Let me know if you have comments.
Best regards,
Anders Weber, A-kasser.dk
Hi,
from 1. july 2017 there came new rules into force.
if your (first) unemployment period in CA A-kasse expired before July 1, 2017 then you have to meet the income-requirement if you want to earn a new period with dagpenge.
if your (first) unemployment period in CA A-kasse expired after July 1, 2017, then you will be covered by the new rules, and this means that you can use the employement requirement (beskæftigelseskravet) to earn a new right to dagpenge, but ONLY if you:
- have a current right to dagpenge OR
- have working hours registered on your “beskæftigelseskonto”. You can see if you have registered hours at Jobnet.dk
The employment requirement is only possible if you DO NOT have interrupted A-kasse membership periods. So if you had a period between membership of CA A-kasse and AKA without membership, Then You must meet the normal requirements for “first time” unemployed. This means that you must have been member for 1 year and meet the income-requirement.
But be aware that the income-requirement tell you must have earned DKK 243,996 over the last 3 years in total. But only periods where you have been member of A-kasse can be included in the income-requirement.
Let me know if you have some comments.

Hi,
1) As an EU-citizen its possible to have up to maximum 3 months Unemployment benefits (“dagpenge”) from your danish A-kasse, while searching for job in another EU-country. Be aware that its a job-search option. This means that you must register as unemployed when arriving in france with the French Unemployment service, and meet the requirements for unemployed in France. However the benefit is paid from your danish A-kasse.
2) I am not fully sure about this. I will recommend you to ask your own A-kasse about this. But because the purpose of the 3-months rule is to find job, i will assume that the period will be terminated before time if you find job, no matter where..
If its still an option to return to Denmark, then it is important that you register (again) as unemployed at Jobnet.dk at latest on the last day of the 3 month period. Otherwise you will only be able to get dagpenge in Denmark again after having worked for 296 hours within 12 weeks.
Best regards,
Anders Weber, A-kasser.dk
Hi,
the requirement is that you must have been unemployed for 4 weeks. This means that you must be registered as unemployed in Jobcenter (at Jobnet.dk) for 4 weeks. Only periods where you are entitled to unemployment benefits (but not necessarily have got them paid out) can be included.
This means that quarantine periods counts towards the 4 weeks.
