Sold laptop
theoretically I could want to buy someone else with the money
also have future expenses like 400 euro root canal treatment
Extend 400 or 800 euro home passport at the Syrian embassy etc.
As soon as i know this is a problem and can lead to an account suspension.
Which account?
I guess it's not because of the account. I'm at the Sparkasse or have a current account but you have to give your details as soon as I know and that with every account as the expenses etc. Are checked.
Then pay in cash. If you deposit the money into your account, it could be deducted from your next ALG2 payment and you then have to laboriously prove that it is only a conversion of assets.
Then why do they ask for bank statements?
You get money from them or you will be deducted bills of exchange and they need that for that.
But you don't know my account turnover, do you? Because you only ask for bank statements for 3 months when you apply for an extension
And asset conversion is not deducted?
Yes, I meant you only ask for excerpts for the last 3 months when applying for further authorization
Funny. Should you ask an expert or the job center think that they will then deduct money from you.
So how are you supposed to know that I've deposited?
Your account is usually blocked if too much has been deposited in one shot, why don't I know exactly myself.
Really? Funny
Usually not (this is what Ebay sales from private households were all about). But malicious clerks might well declare it as income.
Sometimes bank statements are also required for 6 months or none at all. But you don't know that beforehand.
You can add and withdraw as much money as you want to your account every day.
If the employee for benefits at the job center wants to see your bank statements and sees a deposit, a payout or a transfer that seems strange to him, he will ask you whether there's https://www.gesetze-im-internet.de/.../__11.html behind it, which could have an influence on the amount of your ALG II requirement.
Then you can explain the matter.
Example: "That was from my laptop, I sold it for cash and then deposited the money because I… (root treatment, passport, …) have to pay from my account."
Or in legal terms:
From my "not to be taken into account" I have the assets within the meaning of SGB II
https://www.gesetze-im-internet.de/.../__12.html Paragraph 3 No. 1 "reasonable household items" sold my laptop and paid the corresponding cash receipts to my account in order to settle future bills with it.
You can do the same with your old TV and any piece of furniture, even a turkey that you bought too much.
Problems can arise if you sell more household items than you have, or if you earn more money than you can deduct from your assets through your "basic allowance of 150 euro per year of life" according to paragraph 2 no. 1 § 12 , but see also No. 4.
To reduce problems, you can always enter a "subject" when making a cash deposit into your account - in your case for example: "Proceeds from the sale of HP 12345 laptop" - ideally if you have proof of purchase for this laptop Hand has ;-).
You can show both of these to the clerk at the job center if he suspects illegal work or gifts from grandma - i.e. The payer receipt with the subject receipt, and ideally the receipt for the laptop, at least if something like that happens more often.
It is well known that illegal workers and drug dealers have similar problems, only that it is even more difficult for them to prove where their cash comes from ;-)
If you already owned the laptop when you last submitted your application or did not conceal its acquisition from the job center, then the whole thing may need some explanation, but it should not be a problem.
The keyword "asset conversion" was already mentioned.
Your issues are your personal problem.
But you have to report every intake, especially with such a large amount.
