Hej,
Der står ingen steder i lovgivningen, at man som ledig skal søge et bestemt antal stillinger. Der er således ikke hjemmel i loven til at kræve et bestemt antal ansøgninger fra ledige.
Reglerne om krav til jobsøgning er fastsat i “Bekendtgørelse om rådighed” § 14.
I vejledningen til denne bekendtgørelse, fremgår da også af vejledningen til § 14 under punktet “Krav til jobsøgning”:
“A-kassen må ikke generelt fastsætte et antal job, medlemmerne skal søge pr. uge eller måned. A-kassen kan konkret vælge at angive et antal job, som et medlem forventes at søge hver uge. Det skal i givet fald ske ud fra en konkret vurdering af medlemmets uddannelse, erhvervserfaring og øvrige kompetencer, sammenholdt med udbuddet af arbejde i det område, medlemmet skal stå til rådighed inden for. Der er således ikke noget krav om, at a-kassen skal vejlede om et konkret antal job pr. uge. A-kassen kan i stedet fx vejlede om, at medlemmet skal søge adskillige eller flere job hver uge.”
Men på den anden side skal en ledig jo stå til rådighed for arbejdsmarkedet – som ledig dagpengemodtager skal man derfor aktivt og kontinuerligt forsøge hurtigst muligt at få et job – og man skal søge, som A-kassen vejleder og som det i øvrigt fremgår af jobplanen.
Af Beskæftigelsesministeriets tilsynspraksis kan man fastslå at det ikke er nok hvis man kun søger 1 job om ugen. Jeg tror den smiley ordning du henviser til er afskaffet. Men da den fandtes var det korrekt at 1,5 jobsøgninger i gennemsnit gav en grøn smiley.
Det er langt fra alle A-kasser der oplyser konkrete krav til antal job der skal søges når man ser rundt på A-kassernes hjemmesider. Det er måske fordi der ikke er lovhjemmel til at kræve det… Men for dem der oplyser det fremgår f.eks.:
– at man skal have søgt mindst 6 job, når man ser 4 uger tilbage,
– at man skal have søgt mindst 2 fuldtidsjob i Danmark om ugen, hvoraf mindst et skal være opslået job,
– at man skal “søge flere job om ugen”.FTFa skriver dog direkte at man “skal søge mindst 2 fuldtidsjob hver uge”.
Du kan altid klage over din A-kasse. Jeg ved ikke om du allerede har prøvet det, men klager du til A-kassen har de pligt til at sende din klage videre til Styrelsen for Arbejdsmarked og Rekruttering (star.dk).
I en klagesag fra september 2023 accepterer Ankestyrelsens Beskæftigelsesudvalg at en A-kasse i “Krav til jobsøgning” skriver:
“Du skal søge mindst syv fuldtidsjobs om måneden. Ansøgningerne skal være spredt over måneden med mindst en ansøgning om ugen. Fire af de syv stillinger skal være opslåede stillinger, de sidste tre må gerne være uopfordrede ansøgninger.”Ankestyrelsen skriver i afgørelsen også i omtale af reglerne:
Medlemmet skal uploade det antal jobansøgninger, som a-kassen har bedt om, i joblog.I afgørelsen mistede klager retten til dagpenge på grund af manglende jobsøgning. I afgørelsen fremgik dog at jobsøgningen afveg væsentligt fra, hvad klager var pålagt af a-kassen
Så det korte af det lange er nok, at selvom der ikke er direkte krav i lovgivningen, så siger retspraksis (som jo også er en gældende retskilde) at en A-kasse godt kan fastsættes krav til antal ansøgninger. Men det skal formentlig være på månedsbasis og kravet skal formentlig administreres således at uvæsentlige afvigelser ikke skal have betydning.
Vi anbefaler at du forsøger at klage over din A-kasse, hvis du mener de stiller for strenge krav. Om du kan klage til andre steder end Star.dk ved jeg ikke.

Anders Weber, A-kasser.dkHi,
when you are member of an A-kasse and have got paid out Unemployment benefits (“dagpenge”) you also have earned right to get “feriedagpenge” you can get paid, when you have holiday.
For each month, you earn the right to 2.08 days of holiday pay (“feriedagpenge”) if, as a full-time insured, you have been paid benefits for 160.33 hours.
You have the right to get the feriedagpenge paid regardless of whether you are unemployed or in job, when you take the holiday.
The “feriedagpenge” can be used also after you have deregistered from the Jobcenter. However you can only get feriedagpenge paid if you are member of an A-kasse and have the right to unemployment benefit in the event of unemployment at the time you want to have holiday. This means that you must meet the requirements for being eligible for Unemployment benefits (“dagpenge”) when you want to take holiday.
You must also be aware, that if you have accrued holiday days from an employer, you must take these holiday days before you can get feriedagpenge from the A-kasse.
And if you are entitled to holiday with salary or holiday allowance from your employer, you can not at the same time get feriedagpenge from the A-kasse.As the A-kasse has told you, it is correct that you must use the feriedagpenge in the period from September 1 to December 31.
You can off course only get feriedagpenge paid at earlist at the time you have the holiday, and off course only if you really take holiday (not working).
Hope it helps.
Best regards,
Anders Weber, A-kasser.dkHi,
I am not sure I fully understand your question.
But I assume that:
– you now are registered with “dimittend”-status in your A-kasse.
– you have been working after you have finished your educationIf thats correct you have the option (only for graduates) to have your Unemployment benefits (“dagpengesats”) recalculated based
on your work after the education.You must be aware that graduates only get dagpenge for 1 year. The period you have already used with normal dimittend-sats (DKK 12.645) will be deducted, so You can only get dagpenge for the rest of the 1 year period.
Let me know if you have further questions.
Best regards,
Anders Weber, A-kasser.dkHi,
according to the this page:
https://su.dk/su/om-su-til-videregaaende-uddannelser/godkendte-videregaaende-uddannelserErasmus Mundus degree (Global Forestry) is NOT an education program approved by SU.
Also I can see on another page (https://www.ug.dk/uddannelser/bachelorogkandidatuddannelser/kandidatuddannelser/naturvidenskabeligekandidatuddannelser/oevrigenaturvidenskab/global-forestry)
that the education has a participation fee, but that you can apply for SU.According to these sources I will assess that you can NOT get graduate rights in the A-kasse.
However, I will strongly recommend you to also ask an A-kasse.
About the requirement of stay in Denmark. You only have to have stayed in Denmark before the education startet and again at latest 2 weeks after the education is finished. During the education you can stay outside Denmark.
The CPR is not relevant when we talk rules about Unemployment benefits (“dagpenge”) – so it dosen’t matter that you have been de-registered from the CPR-register.
The income must be reported to the income register within 12 months during the last 24 months.
The work does not need to have been carried out for 12 consecutive months, but wage hours must be reported in each of the 12 months.Hope it helps.
Best regards,
Anders Weber, A-kasser.dkHi,
As an unemployed unemployment benefit recipient, you have the right to take a holiday like everyone else. As you say your self you can off course not get unemployment benefits in the holiday period.
However you must remember to report the holiday to both the Jobcenter (Jobnet.dk) and your A-kasse.
The job center must be notified of your holiday no later than 14 days before the holiday starts. The A-kasse must be informed at latest on the first day of your holiday.
You must use your 2 year period with Unemployment benefits (“dagpenge”) within a 3-year reference period.
Best regards,
Anders Weber, A-kasser.dkHi,
You cannot participate in a SU eligible full-time education (be registered as student) and at the same time receive Unemployment benefits (“dagpenge”).
This is due to the fact that a person who receives unemployment benefits (“dagpenge”) must be fully available for the labor market.If a member studies without being registered at an educational institution, e.g. by writing a thesis, the A-kasse must carry out a specific availability assessment.
But since you have been able to work full-time during your Master Study until now, I believe the A-kasse need to accept that you can be available for the labor market while doing your Master thesis.I dont know if it is possible, but if you have an option to be registered for the final exam (Master thesis defense) as a so-called “private person”, i.e. without having participated in the previous education, it could help your chances to get Unemployment benefits. In that case the member is considered to be participating in education from the time the member has registered for the exam.
We strongly recommend you to talk with your A-kasse about your options.
Best regards,
Anders Weber, A-kasser.dkHi,
I assume that the person was receiving Unemployment benefits (“dagpenge”) from A-kasse before beginning to receive maternity benefits (“barselsdagpenge”).
In that case the person can continue in the “dagpenge”-period after the maternity leave is completed, and receive dagpenge for the rest of the 2-year period which is left.The period of which the person received dagpenge before maternity leave is deducted in the total 2 year period of which a person can receive dagpenge.
The normal 3 year period in which a dagpenge-period has to be used is extended with the maternity leave period.
Off course the person must be available for the labor market, search for jobs, attend to meetings in A-kasse and Jobcenter etc.
Hope this answers your questions.
Best regards,
Anders Weber, A-kasser.dkHi,
I will only recommend part-time membership (“deltidsforsikret”) if you have difficulties with meeting the normal (“full-time”) income requirement and/or if you really only want to work maximum 30 hours per week.
For part-time insured the income requirement is 175,488 kr. However you will also get lower amount in Unemployment benefits.
If you only want to work part-time/search for part-time jobs, off course a part-time membership could be an option.
You can still have full-time membership even you do not work full-time. However in case of unemployment you have to apply for full-time jobs.
The A-kasse can see if you work more than the 30 hours per week, and will in that case change your membership from part-time to full-time.
Best,
Anders Weber, A-kasser.dkHi,
1. Only salary during maternity leave (paid by your employer) can be used to meet the income requirement. Hence, “Barselsdagpenge” paid by “Udbetaling Danmark” can not be used to meet the income requirement.
2. You have to meet the income requirement for the year where you apply for unemployment benefits. So if you apply now you must meet the 2024 requirement (kr. 263,232).
3. As it is only income during membership periods that is taken into account to calculate the income requirement, the earliest the earning period can start is the day you joined A-kasse.
4. All Danish employers, companies and paying authorities are obliged to report taxable income for the individual citizen to a central register – the so-called Income Register. However only income registrered in the income register of which there has to be paid AM-bidrag can be used to meet the income requirement for being eligible for Unemployment benefits.
5. It must be income that, according to the tax regulations, is income related to work income. This means that only income from which labor market contributions (AM-bidrag) must be paid can be included in the calculation. Unemployment benefits/Maternity benefits and other transfer income of which no labor market contribution is paid, cannot be included in the income requirement.Let me know if you have further questions.
Best regards,
Anders Weber, A-kasser.dkHi,
we only guide about A-kasse and dagpenge. I can not see that your question is about A-kasse and/or dagpenge?
Please ask more precise about A-kasse/dagpenge, if you have a question about that.
best regards,
Anders Weber, A-kasser.dkHi,
whether you can receive unemployment benefits or not, depend (as a non-EU citizen) on, among other things the type of work/residence permit you have.
We do not guide about work permit, but recommend you instead to contact SIRI about that part of your question.
However to be able to get unemployment benefits (“dagpenge”) you will need a work permit that:
– allows you to take any job with one day notice, and
– the work/residence permit must no be conditional on that you do not receive Unemployment benefits (“dagpenge”).If you can meet these requirements (you probably can’t) an PhD will normally be meet the requirements for graduate rights regarding unemployment benefits. You can see all requirements here:
https://www.a-kasser.dk/graduates/As a PhD student it could also be an option (again only if you have the right work/residence permit) to get dagpenge based on the salary you get as a PhD student. Read more here (only in danish):
https://www.a-kasser.dk/phd-studerende/Hope it helps you.
Best regards,
Anders Weber, A-kasser.dkHi,
we do not guide about work permit, so concerning that part of your question, we recommend you to ask SIRI.
However we can say that your work permit must:
– give right to take any job with one day notice
– must not be conditional on that you must not receive unemployment benefits.But if we assume that you have the proper work permit, I can not see why you should not be able to get Unemployment benefits.
According to your information you meet the requirements for graduate rights as we describe on this page:
https://www.a-kasser.dk/graduates/Concerning the affiliate-requirement (in your case instead of meeting the language-requirement), its important that you have got income reported to the income-register for 12 months during the last 24 months prior to unemployment. And the total number of hours must be at least 600. According to your information you will meet this requirement.
For you it doesn’t matter if you join the A-kasse before graduation or at latest 14 days after. Your rights to unemployment benefits (“dagpenge”) will be the same. You will have 1 month waiting period.
You can easily join now if you want, but you will have to pay member fee to the A-kasse. If you do so, you just have to remember to change status to newly graduated at latest 14 days after graduation.
When you have the graduate rights registered in the A-kasse, you can wait to start receving “dagpenge”, if you plan to have holiday after graduation. When you are granted unemployment benefits as a newly graduate you will have one year with dagpenge which must be used within a “reference”-period of two years.
As long as you dont receive dagpenge, you are free to do what you want to do.
Let me know if you have further questions.

Anders Weber, A-kasser.dkHi,
no its not possible.

Anders Weber, A-kasser.dkHej Peter,
vi er ikke eksperter indenfor efterløn. Men jeg har fundet følgende oplysninger:
Du skal betale efterlønsbidrag frem til din efterlønsalder. Personer født i perioden 01.01.59 – 31.12.75 skal indbetale i mindst 25 år.
Er du født før 1. juli 1964, og har du betalt efterlønsbidrag fra 1. april 1999, er det dog tilstrækkeligt, at du har betalt efterlønsbidrag i 20 år inden for de sidste 25 år.Personer der er født i perioden 2. juli 1960 til 31. december 1975, har mulighed for at holde en bidragsfri periode.
En bidragsfri periode vil ikke få betydning for din ret til efterløn.
Du skulle gerne have modtaget et brev fra din a-kasse om, at du i en periode kan undlade at betale efterlønsbidrag.
Du har ret til at holde en bidragsfri periode, hvis du er:
- født i perioden 2. juli 1960 til 31. december 1975
- begyndt at betale efterlønsbidrag før du fyldte 35. år og før 1. januar 2008 eller
- hvis du har betalt efterlønsbidrag i 2007, og på det tidspunkt var over 35 år
- kan nå at betale efterlønsbidrag i mindst 25 år inden din efterlønsalder og ikke har fået det tilbagebetalt
Du skal være opmærksom på at du når du vil på efterløn, skal du opfylde alle betingelser for ret til efterløn. For personer født mellem 01.01.59 – 31.12.75 betyder det bl.a. at:
- Du skal have været uafbrudt medlem af en a-kasse og have indbetalt efterlønsbidrag fra 1. januar 2008, og indtil du når efterlønsalderen, dog mindst 25 år.
- Kunne opfylde betingelserne for ret til dagpenge ved ledighed
- Have bopæl i Danmark eller i et andet EØS-land.
Vi anbefaler selvfølgelig at du også spørger din egen A-kasse.
Med venlig hilsen
Anders Weber, A-kasser.dkHi,
for non-EU citizens its only possible to get Unemployment benefits, if they have a permanent residence permit in Denmark, or they have EU residence as a family member to an EU citizen.
And off course only if they otherwise meet the requirements for being eligbile for Unemployment benefits (“dagpenge”).
Hope it helps.
