What we do for you

Less back-and-forth — higher chance of approval.

Supporting documents

I check whether it’s worth it: entitlement, deadlines and the responsible body (employer, Ausgleichskasse, etc.).
Checklistof what’s missing: certificates, contracts, proof of residence/school, decisions, etc.
Well-written request, with the correct references and attachments (avoiding rejections over formal errors).
Back payments: where applicable, I request back payment and justify the dates.
Follow-up: replies, additional requests and communication until the case is closed.

Tip:the “secret” is the timeline: aligned dates, changes and evidence. That speeds things up and reduces back-and-forth.

Timeline

Well-organised dates and facts.

Attachments

Only what’s needed, clearly labelled.

Follow-up

Support until a decision is made.

FAQ

Can I claim back payments?

It depends on the type of allowance, the authority and the deadlines. We assess it and tell you whether it’s worth pursuing before moving ahead.

Is it with the employer or the Ausgleichskasse?

It varies by case and canton. We identify the right body and prepare the request accordingly.

If a document is missing, is the request rejected?

It can cause delays or follow-up questions. That’s why we build a checklist and submit it well-structured, with the right attachments.

How much does it cost?

It depends on the complexity (simple vs. back payments/disputes). The request is used to assess the case; we then send you an offer/quote before proceeding.
