The initiative is expected to provide services for access to the labour market by the National Employment Agency, one-time aid for moving house, and a settlement supplement for a period of up to 12 months. The admissible one-time aid for moving house within the bounds of the EU amounts to 5,000 Leva, and outside the EU – up to 10,000 Leva. The initiative includes other financial incentives as well. The participants in the project who are foreign citizens, or members of their families may be eligible for Bulgarian language training for their faster integration into the labour market in this country.
