Parental benefit planner
Estimate Swedish Försäkringskassan parental benefit (föräldrapenning) based on SGI, leave percentage and how many days you plan to take out.
Understand your SGI and the parental benefit cap
Föräldrapenning at sickness benefit level equals 80% of your sickness benefit qualifying income (SGI) divided by 365, capped at 10 price base amounts. The calculator applies the current price base amount for the year you select so you can see the effect of the SGI ceiling.
Plan how many days to withdraw
Out of the 480 parental benefit days per child, 390 days are paid at sickness benefit level and 90 days at the flat SEK 180 base level. Enter how many days that you and your co-parent plan to use on each level to see the total compensation.
Adjust the leave percentage
You can take parental benefit in whole, half, quarter or one-eighth days. Lowering the leave percentage gives smaller payments per day but stretches the days over a longer calendar period. The calculator shows both the daily amount and an estimate of how many calendar months your days will last.
