Which kinds of income are incorrect?
We obtain information about monthly incomes from the Norwegian Tax Administration’s records. If the monthly incomes are wrong, you must contact the people who reported the incomes. Once the information has been corrected, your housing allowance will automatically be recalculated if it is affected by the change. You shouldn’t appeal.
You can check the income reported by employers, NAV and other sources by logging into My income and employment (skatteetaten.no).
Work assessment allowance (AAP), unemployment benefit and some other benefits are paid out three times in some months. What matters is when you received the income, not when you earned it. You may therefore receive less or no housing allowance in months with 3 payments. If you appeal because of this, your appeal will be rejected.
