Employment Agency (Arbeitsagentur) & Jobcenter

AVGS status, appointments and 12 letter templates in one place, including continuation application, education voucher (Bildungsgutschein) and objection (Widerspruch).

How BA & Jobcenter Support works

This tool bundles together three things that are frequently needed when dealing with the Agentur für Arbeit (Employment Agency) and Jobcenter: a template for objecting to a decision (Bescheid), an overview of the status of your AVGS, and a generator for further letters to the responsible office. All three areas are combined on this one page, so you do not have to switch between different forms and templates when several matters come up at once during the application process. The tool also manages your BA and Jobcenter appointments in one place, with a preparation checklist per appointment type, for example a counselling session, an application-folder review, or a quarterly review, so you know which documents to bring before you go.

The objection generator helps you draft a timely objection (Widerspruch) under § 84 SGG, taking into account the one-month deadline from the date the decision was received. It does not replace legal advice, but provides a structured starting text that you can adapt to your specific case and, if needed, discuss with a counseling service before submitting it. The template specifically asks for the date of the decision, the reference number (Aktenzeichen), and up to three concrete points of objection, for example when relevant work experience was not taken into account in the decision, so the text is tailored to your case from the start instead of staying generic. The AVGS status overview shows which phase your Aktivierungs- und Vermittlungsgutschein (activation and placement voucher) is currently in, from submitted through under review to approved, rejected, or expired, so you can see when a measure, for example at a training provider, needs to be started or an extension needs to be requested in time, instead of letting the voucher expire unused.

The letter generator covers other common occasions: an application for a Bildungsgutschein (education voucher), an application for AVGS for coaching, the monthly proof of your own job-search efforts, a note to an employer about the Eingliederungszuschuss (integration subsidy), a sick note, a reply to a request for cooperation, and an application for career counselling. For each of these occasions the generator provides a structured starting text in the correct format, with the same traceable fields such as reference number, date, and recipient, so you can use it directly or adapt it as needed. This way you keep track even with several parallel matters at the Agentur für Arbeit and Jobcenter, without having to draft every letter from scratch.

You can save any letter you have created as a draft, to reload or adjust it later, and your BA appointments can be added directly to your personal calendar. Because your AVGS data, appointments, and letter drafts are stored exclusively locally in your browser and are not transmitted to our server, use of the tool stays data-minimal, without requiring you to create an account or share personal data with third parties.
