In the past, the company paid social security, but now it has to be paid by itself. How should I go through the formalities?

Legal analysis: social security used to be paid by units, but now it is paid by individuals, so they can continue to pay social security as flexible employees. Go to the local social security center with the company's resignation certificate to change the nature of the social security relationship, and then change the social security relationship paid by the company to the social security relationship paid by the individual.

Legal basis: Article 58 of the Social Insurance Law of People's Republic of China (PRC) stipulates that the employer shall apply to the social insurance agency for social insurance registration for employees within 30 days from the date of employment. If the social insurance has not been registered, the social insurance agency shall verify the social insurance premium it should pay. Employees-free individual industrial and commercial households who voluntarily participate in social insurance, part-time employees who do not participate in social insurance in the employing unit and other flexible employees shall apply to the social insurance agency for social insurance registration. The state establishes a national unified personal social security number. Personal social security number is a citizen's identity number.
