Here is basic information about the residence-related benefit restrictions issue along with questions and answers to various issues and requests that the Organisation of Disabled in Iceland has received. We would like to point out that this issue has been referred to the Social Insurance Administration (Tryggingastofnun ríkisins, TR), but we want to help everyone with obtaining information and to claim their right. We will also keep adding answers as soon as we receive questions or new issues arise in regard to this case.
