Dear Jobseeker in Sweden:

Skatteverket is providing a deduction for job seekers as an exception if there is a requirement to actively search for work:

This means if you are receiving Bidrag from Arbetsförmedlingen (via Försäkringskassan) and are required to actively search for a job, you are allowed a deduction for costs above 5000 Kr.

Please read the complete rule on Skatteverket: https://www4.skatteverket.se/rattsligvagledning/edition

Please share this information or post so that many job seekers in Sweden can make use of it.
