Compensation for loss of earnings COVID: extended entitlement

The legal bases for the “coronavirus IPG” will be valid until 31 December 2021, instead of 30 June, and the deadline for submission extended to 31 March 2022

The legal bases for entitlement to loss of earnings compensation for coronavirus will be valid until 31 December 2021, instead of 30 June.
The deadline for submitting claims for benefits has been set at 31 March 2022.
In addition, as of July 1, 2021, future coronavirus loss-of-earnings allowance amounts may be calculated based on income reported in the 2019 tax decision.

A decision taken by the Federal Council on 18 June 2021

The Federal Council decided on these ordinance amendments at its meeting on 18 June 2021.
The Federal Council has extended the period of validity of the ordinance provisions on compensation for loss of earnings due to the coronavirus from 30 June to 31 December 2021.
This goes hand in hand with the extension of the legal bases of the COVID-19 Act decided by Parliament.
As entitlement to compensation for loss of earnings due to the coronavirus can only be claimed retroactively for certain categories, claims for benefits can be made until 31 March 2022.

Calculations on the basis of the basic income indicated in the 2019 tax ruling

In addition, from 1 July 2021 future coronavirus loss-of-earnings allowances may be calculated on the basis of the income shown in the taxation decision for 2019, if this is more advantageous to the insured person.
This ordinance change comes at a time when an increasing number of affected persons have received the final tax decision for 2019.
Up to now, compensation for loss of earnings has in principle been calculated on the basis of the income from gainful employment subject to OASI earned in 2019 and taken into account when setting the advance contributions for the same year.
