Kela would like to remind its customers to check the income ceiling of their 2025 tax card and, if necessary, to request a new tax card from the Tax Administration. By doing so, you can make sure your Kela benefits are taxed correctly at the right withholding rate.

Check the income ceiling of your tax card – are your Kela benefits taxed correctly?

Next year will see several changes to Kela benefits, affecting both benefit rates and eligibility criteria. Many of the government proposals concerning the amendments are even now being reviewed by Parliament.

Large number of changes planned for social security in 2026
