How to use the work assessment allowance calculator

  1. Enter your income for the last calendar year (or the average of the last 3 years) before your work capacity was reduced.
  2. Choose whether you're 25 or older, or under 25.
  3. The calculator shows 66 % of the base, capped at 6G — or the minimum rate, if that's higher.

How the allowance is calculated

Allowance = max(66 % × base, minimum rate)
Base = the higher of (last year's income) or (average income, last 3 years), capped at 6G

Work assessment allowance is calculated as 66 % of your base, which is the higher of your income in the year before your work capacity was reduced, or the average of the last three years. The base is capped at 6 times the base amount (6G). If you have low or no prior income, you still receive a minimum rate, which is lower if you're under 25.

Limitation: This is a simplified calculation at 100 % reduced work capacity. Child supplements and graded AAP for partial work capacity affect the actual payout. Check nav.no for a complete estimate. This calculator applies to Norway's National Insurance scheme only.

How long can I receive AAP?

Yes, graded AAP is possible if you have partial work capacity. This calculator shows AAP at a full loss of work capacity (100 %) with no other income alongside it.
