How do I complete the monthly income statement for Dutch WW benefit?
What would you like help with?
Detailed explanation, checklist and sources
Complete the Inkomstenopgave every month while receiving WW, including months without income. It is available in Mijn UWV and the UWV app from the first day of the following month. Check the requested income and payroll period; do not simply enter the net payment in your bank account.

1. Select the right month and benefit
This guidance applies to Dutch WW and the income statement for Ziektewet during or after WW. Open the form for the previous month when it becomes available. Having no work or income does not let you skip the monthly statement.
2. Check which income must be reported
Prepare your payslip and other relevant income records. UWV lists wages, holiday pay, certain other work and pensions, among others. Not every receipt is treated alike. A supplementary UWV allowance has additional rules; consult the official income list if unsure.
3. Check the payroll period
Check whether your employer reports wages by calendar month, week or four-week period. With four-week pay, use UWV's table to match the right period to the month. Self-employment has its own questions; do not automatically follow the employee wage method.
4. Submit and keep confirmation
Review the answers and submit through Mijn UWV or the app. Keep the confirmation email. UWV compares your statement with employer information. A difference can lead to review and later adjustment; quick payment does not prove every figure has been approved.
5. Correct mistakes through the right route
Before submission you can edit the fields. If submitted but not yet paid, contact UWV. After payment, use the income check in the next statement. If omitted income does not appear there either, send the correct amount through Mijn berichten.
6. Prepare a clear monthly record
List payroll periods, amounts, evidence and uncertain points below for each month. This local document is not an income statement and sends nothing. Ask for clarification about missing payslips or unclear checks; personal assistance can assess a disputed decision.
What if I discover a mistake after submitting?
Contact UWV before payment. If payment has already occurred, use the income check in the next statement. If omitted income is absent from that check, report the correction through Mijn berichten and keep your evidence.
