NASpI FAQs
NASpI is an unemployment benefit for many employees who lose their jobs through no fault of their own.
It gives you temporary financial support while you look for a new job.
NASpI is mainly available to employees who have lost their jobs through no fault of their own.
Generally, you need at least 13 weeks of contributions in the last 4 years.
You may need to meet additional contribution requirements if, for example, you voluntarily left a permanent job in the previous 12 months.
Etnopoint can check whether you qualify for NASpI before you apply.
Generally, you cannot receive NASpI if you resign voluntarily.
There are exceptions, including resignation for just cause and other circumstances provided for by law.
Before you apply, check why your employment ended.
Etnopoint can help you find out whether you can apply for NASpI.
How long you receive NASpI depends on the contributions paid over the past 4 years.
Generally, you can receive it for half the number of weeks you paid contributions during the relevant period.
The length of time you receive it can vary from person to person.
You must apply to INPS within 68 days of your employment ending.
Don't wait too long: applying in the first few days can help you avoid losing part of your benefit.
In some cases, the deadline may start from a different date.

Your NASpI payment depends on your average earnings before you lost your job.

The documents you need depend on your situation, but usually include:
- Identity document and tax code
- IBAN to receive your payments
- Documents relating to the end of your employment
- Details of your last employer
- Any other documents INPS requires for your case
