Procedure descriptions
Apply for free funding SGB II
With the support services of the Social Code Book III (SGB III) and Social Code Book II (SGB II), there are good opportunities for your job centre to support you in your integration into work. In cases where these funding options are not sufficient, the so-called Free Assistance SGB II can provide additional support.
Your responsible integration specialist will decide whether support from the Free Assistance SGB II is necessary and possible in your specific situation and, if so, how it can be organised. In principle, both financial benefits and participation in measures are possible. You have no legal entitlement to support.
