Is it true to extend the social security payment period?

It is not true to extend the social security payment period, and there is no relevant policy to extend the social security payment period at present.

China's social security contribution is at least 15 years, and you can receive a pension after retirement, which means that 15 years is the minimum threshold. It is stipulated that the minimum payment period is 15 years, which does not mean that it is not necessary to pay 15 years. For employees, payment is a mandatory obligation stipulated by law. As long as you are employed in an employer, you should pay in accordance with state regulations. At the same time, the individual's enjoyment of the basic pension is directly related to the individual's payment period. The longer the payment period, the larger the payment base, and the more pensions you receive after retirement.

Social insurance funds include basic endowment insurance fund, basic medical insurance fund, industrial injury insurance fund, unemployment insurance fund and maternity insurance fund. In addition to the basic medical insurance fund and maternity insurance fund combined accounting, other social insurance funds are accounted for separately according to social insurance types.
