Unemployment assistance Austria

indiannie · 2009-10-12 11:15:51

I am moving to Austria in a few weeks. I am Irish & have been employed on a fulltime basis in Ireland since 1997. Am I entitled to any welfare assistance in Austria while I source? Any advice or direction on this is greatly appreciated - thanks!

Well, I don't know their system now, cause I left Austria all must 7 years ago, but as far as I know as an EU citizen you should be intitle to unemployed benefit. You just take all your document and straight go to the Arbizamt office. For those who never worked before or out of work for a long period of time they need to go to the local social office. Make sure you are registered with their Police, before go to the Unemployment office. Where are you about to go in Austria? I lived in Vienna, beautiful city.
