A self-employed out of work must register online on the Employment Service website, and submit a Claim for income support benefit to the National Insurance Institute.
Your eligibility for benefit will be examined by assessing your compliance with the conditions of entitlement, as well as your income as declared to the Collection Department.
If you experience a decrease in your income, you can submit to the Collection Department a request to update advance payments (even temporarily) – and we will refer to the updated advances.
Please note that the right to the income support is examined for a family unit and, therefore, you and your wife must fulfill its conditions of entitlement.
