Remigration - The remigration benefit and other benefits/pension

If you receive a remigration benefit as well as another Dutch benefit or pension in your new country, that benefit or pension will be deducted from your remigration benefit. The one-off remigration grant will not be affected by any other benefit or pension you may be receiving.
