Yep, but I remember to read somewhere that you can search for a job abroad (think they are quite happy here if you find something). I guess you ask and maybe you need some plan and actions to make that work.

That could be a good think, I remember that I've heard also something similar but I don't know any details though...

Certain Kela benefits are not payable abroad at all. These include:

labour market subsidies
basic unemployment allowances (except when looking for work in another EU/EEA country)

Yes since they calculate your income not what you do.

Be carefull to be happy :( This 'extra' payment might increase your quarantine days, the days that they do not pay you out (from the first day of unemployment till the day they think you have right for päiväraha). As I mentioned earlier, they think you have enough holiday :lol:

I currently have a part-time job and I also get the unemployment benefits. If I wouldn't work for 1,5 months from now are they going to be suspicious about why I don't work anymore?

What does it harm you when they are suspicious? You can work legally extra (till a certain limit) next to your unemployment benefits but if that is profitable has to be seen. Working black is ofcourse another mather and a big risk, especially as a foreigner.

No, you didn't get it :)
I wanted to say that If I won't work the part-time job after working now for couple of months will they get suspicious in any way or I will just continue to get the unemployment benefits.

Well if you get your money from KELA and not from a 'kassa', IMO you will keep on getting your benefits because that is the minimum you can get. IMO you get more from 'kassa' according to you last salary and limited to a certain period.
