Austrians who receive a further education allowance should be careful. Because young mothers, through no fault of their own, not only have to pay back the amount approved by the AMS and already paid out, but the social security is also simply stopped afterwards – without that, medical bills are also due during this period!
Unbelievable, but true: A “casual case from Lower Austria”, as the AMS calls it, is now spreading widely and shaking the trust of those affected in the local “social system”. An inspection by the Viennese continuing education institute Sitya found that the courses did not meet the legal requirements. Since the AMS must strictly adhere to the unemployment insurance law, it has no choice but to demand the money paid out from those affected. At the same time, the insurance status is then removed!
