Service Procedure Costs and deadlines

Procedure

The following applies in principle:

You receive the annual statements automatically. You therefore do not need to submit an application.
You will receive the annual statement in February.
If a correction is necessary, you will receive the new annual statement with the current data in September.

If you no longer have an annual statement and need a copy, you can request it online, by post or by telephone from the Künstlersozialkasse.

Online request:

Call up the online form on the federal portal verwaltung.bund.de. This will guide you step by step through the necessary information, which you can enter electronically.
Note: You will need a valid ELSTER certificate to log in to the online form. Alternatively, you can use your electronic ID document.
It will take you about 10 minutes to complete the online application.
First enter your personal details, including your insurance number. You will find this on the letter from the Künstlersozialkasse in the top right-hand corner.
On the next page, you can specify the year for which you require a copy of the annual statement.

Request by post:

Let the Künstlersozialkasse know for which year you require a copy of the annual statement.
Please also state your insurance number. You will find this on the letter from the Künstlersozialkasse in the top right-hand corner.

Request by telephone:

Have your insurance number ready. You will find it in the top right-hand corner of the letter from the Künstlersozialkasse.
Call the Künstlersozialkasse.
