The EAR (retirement allowance equivalent) could be partially restored in the fall of 2011. It was abolished in January 2011, although the former recipients continued to receive their allowance.

The EAR is an allowance for job seekers in the following situation: they justify the number of terms sufficient to receive a full pension but have not yet reached the legal age to retire .

The AER was abolished in January 2011 for new job seekers. However, the government would prepare a decree restoring the device partially. It would now be open only to job seekers over 60 years. The calculation of the number of qualifying quarters allowance would take more account of periods of unemployment or maternity.

The amount of the EAR is 33.18 euros in 2011 for the unemployed registered at employment center before January 1, 2011. The monthly amount is equal to the daily amount multiplied by the number of days that month.

To take advantage of the EAR to replace or supplement, you must:
be included on the list of job seekers;
justify the number of quarters needed to qualify for full pension without
the minimum age to retire;
meet certain resources.

Replacement for the EAR you must also:
or be the beneficiary of the specific solidarity allowance (ASS) or income solidarité active (RSA);
either does not see any other allowance. Your rights to unemployment benefits must be exhausted. And if you do not meet the conditions for receiving unemployment benefits, you should not have left your job voluntarily.
To complement the EAR, you must also be receiving a grant to assist return to work (ARE).

If you touch the EAR you may request to be excused from seeking employment. This involves sending a letter to the employment center.
