I have applied for the unemployment benefit and the answer is:
Työttömyysetuuden maksamiselle ei ole työvoimapoliittista estettä 05/05/2009
What does that mean? I can't get benefit?

Re: Need translate!
If you use Google Translate it explains it very well:
Unemployment benefit payment is not labor political obstacles 05/05/2009
Now you know!
Unemployment benefit payment is not labor political obstacles 05/05/2009
Now you know!

With sufficient thrust, pigs fly just fine.

It translates roughly as
"there are no labour policy -related obstacles for paying the unemployment benefit"
They could just have written "yes"
"there are no labour policy -related obstacles for paying the unemployment benefit"
They could just have written "yes"

Re: Need translate!
Its also confusing they always include the 2nd page with huge instructions on how to complain of the decision... like you'd complain of getting the benefit...
