You must tell us if anyone in your household has a change in their income from self-employment, income from capital, foreign income or wealth. We call these types of income reportable income. You don’t need to document the information.
You don’t need to tell us about monthly income such as wages/salary, benefits and grants. We get them automatically from the Norwegian Tax Administration each month.
Your reportable income is checked when your tax assessment for the current year is ready. If there is a discrepancy between the income we have used to calculate your housing allowance and the tax assessment, we perform a reassessment. If you have received too little housing allowance you will get a top-up payment, and if you have received too much you will have to repay some of it.
