Today, Wednesday, April 24, is paid by DOUBLE the one-time benefit of 300 euros to an additional 3,196 long-term unemployed people who do not receive unemployment benefits and have prepared a Digital Individual Action Plan (Digital ASD).
In total, so far the benefit has been paid to 100,186 beneficiaries. Payments appear on accounts within 1-2 business days after payment.
The “bonus” was established by the law “Jobs Again(law 4921/2022), with the aim of activating the long-term unemployed through the creation of an updated Digital ASD, based on which they will be able to direct themselves to actions to develop their employability and find work.

How to turn your Individual Action Plan (ASP) into a Digital one
Those unemployed who have already drawn up an Individual Action Plan (API) should convert it into a Digital API. In particular, they enter with TaxisNet codes the electronic services (eservices) of DYPA and confirm or update the data of the ASD, so that it turns into a Digital ASD.
Those unemployed who have not already completed an ASD should make an appointment with a job counselor at the Employment Promotion Center (KPA2) in their area, either via video conference (MyDYPAlive) or in person.
To make an appointment via video conference, the unemployed should visit the online address: https://www.gov.gr/ipiresies/polites-kai-kathemerinoteta/ex-apostaseos-exuperetese-politon/exuperetese-me-telediaskepse-apo -ton-organismo-apaskholeses-ergatikou-dunamikou-oaed
