€2,000 geographic mobility allowance applicable for 2020 and 2021 if unemployed and registered before passing civil service exams

An individual who registered as a jobseeker after their contract ended and subsequently passed civil service exams has asked whether they can claim the geographic mobility expense allowance when taking up their post in another city. The Directorate General of Taxes (DGT) has ruled that they can, as the registration with the employment office took place before the publication of the final list of successful candidates.
