In June 2025, the Swedish Data Protection Authority (IMY) began inspecting the Swedish Social Insurance Agency (SSIA). The inspection aimed to examine how the SSIA processes personal data when using risk-based selection for targeted checks on individuals receiving temporary parental benefits. IMY specifically investigated the use of any AI or machine learning systems in these selection checks. In response, SSIA stated that it had previously used a machine learning-based risk profile but had discontinued it over a month prior. SSIA also indicated that it had no plans to reinstate the risk profile in the processing. IMY concluded that since the machine learning-based processing had ceased and there were no plans to reinstate it, there were no grounds for further investigation. The case was therefore closed.
