After sick leave, a holiday or another interruption, the AMS should know that you are available again.
Many people are unsure whether they are automatically re-registered or need to do something themselves. Check your situation as early as possible so there are no problems with messages, appointments or payments.
What should I check now?
Take a moment to check:
- Am I re-registered with the AMS?
- Do I have new messages or open tasks in MeinAMS?
- Are there any open appointments?
- Do I need to submit documents?
- Are my personal details and bank account correct?
This way you can see more quickly if anything still needs to be done.
Frequently asked questions
Why is re-registration important?
During an interruption your status with the AMS can change.
Re-registering tells the AMS that you are reachable again and available to the job market.
Without this information your case may still be treated as interrupted.
When should I re-register?
It is best to re-register on the first day after your sick leave, holiday or other absence.
Do not wait several days, even if you have not received a new message from the AMS yet.
How can I re-register?
First use MeinAMS and check your messages and open tasks there.
If you are unsure or do not have access, contact your local AMS office.
What happens if I re-register too late?
A late notification can have consequences.
There may be follow-up questions or payments may come later.
If you forgot to re-register, act as quickly as possible and explain the situation directly to the AMS.
Will I keep receiving my AMS payments?
That depends on your personal situation.
If your notifications are done and there are no other open issues, processing normally continues.
If a payment is missing, first check your messages, open tasks and your bank account details.
Do I need to send a certificate after sick leave?
That depends on the individual case.
If the AMS needs a certificate or further documents, you will usually find this information in your messages.
Only upload documents through official AMS channels.
