The Insurance Court modified the Social Security Board's decision regarding the priority of a Finnish work pension over a Swedish daily allowance. The applicant argued that the Swedish benefit should be primary, but the court found that the Finnish pension commences from the first month following the establishment of disability status. Consequently, the Swedish allowance was deemed secondary and could not be used to restrict the Finnish pension payment.
