Withdrawal of an application for basic income support
Erklärung der Antragsrücknahme (Grundsicherungsgeld)
If you applied for basic income support (formerly Bürgergeld) and no longer need it – for example because you found a job – this form officially withdraws your application.
Who needs it?
Anyone who applied for basic income support and wants to withdraw the application before the Jobcenter decides.
Where to submit?
To your Jobcenter – via the online mailbox at jobcenter.digital, by post or in person.
Tips
• A withdrawal cannot be undone. If you need help again later, you must apply again. • From then on the Jobcenter no longer pays your health insurance – contact your health insurer. • The form is valid without a signature.
