Eligibility For Social Assistance

Summary

In Bulgaria, to qualify for social assistance, you must be registered as unemployed, have income below certain thresholds, and not own substantial assets. For unemployment benefits, a minimum of 9 months of insurance contributions in the last 15 months is required. If you have only worked for 3 days, you wont meet this criterion, but you can still register as unemployed at the employment office. For more information, contact your local social assistance office.
