Hi there,
I have a question about pausing A-kasse payments.
What I mean by that is if I have paid A-kasse membership for two years and I would like to have a few months break from paying the membership will I lose the one year minimum waiting time period or not?(if I am going to pay again after few months will I still have to wait another year to get the benefits or not?)
Also it is not clear about if I will study something new (change career) when I lose my job. Will I still get the benefits?Thanks
Hi,
it’s not possible to pause payment of membership-fee (“kontingent”) to the A-kasse.
If you do so, you will have to start over again with 1 year membership when you start paying again/become member of A-kasse again.
What career/job you have has nothing to do with your right to Unemployment benefits, as long as you can meet the requirements for being eligible for Unemployment benefits (“Dagpenge”). Therefore you can also change career/job without problems.
However depending on what A-kasse you are member of, a career change can mean that you need to change A-kasse. This is because some A-kasser only covers one/few professional fields, while others are interdisciplinary and accept any as member regardless of job or education.
You can read about changing A-kasse in this article.

the starting point is that its not possible to study and at the same time receive dagpenge. It’s because when you receive dagpenge you must be available for the labor market – and you do not if you are studying.
However its possible to participate in some educations and at the same time receive dagpenge. There are some conditions you must meet, for example you must be over 30 years old and you must be unskilled or have an outdated/old education.
This option is called “Uddannelsesløft”.
We have some articles about this on our website – unfortunately only in danish:

Hope it helps you.
