The deduction is too high

If we’ve started enforcement proceedings and you think the deduction is too high, you can apply to get it changed or suspended.

When you’ve sent us the completed application form, we’ll re-evaluate the deduction amount. If we find that the deduction is too high, we’ll notify your employer or NAV about a new and lower deduction. They cannot change the deduction until we’ve notified them.

Important information

Please note that if your application for lower deductions is granted, your payment period will be longer.

You should have money left to cover the necessary cost of living expenses

If our calculation shows that you do not have enough money left to cover the necessary cost of living expenses, we’ll not make deductions from your income. When your financial situation improves, we’ll start making deductions again.

You generally cannot receive a refund

If we’ve started making deductions and you submit documentation of higher expenses, we do not, as a rule, refund money that has already been deducted.
