How to deal with two different social security cards?

There are two different ways to handle social security cards, as follows:

1. According to the Regulations on the Administration of Social Security Cards, each resident can only apply for one social security card. Therefore, holding two social security cards in different places generally means that one of them needs to be selected as the location of the main social security relationship, and the corresponding merger or cancellation operations are carried out.

2. If there are conditions for social security relationship transfer between the two social security cards, such as participating in the same insurance (such as comprehensive insurance or basic endowment insurance for urban workers) and there is no transfer between these insurances, then you can try to apply for social security relationship merger. After the merger, the personal information and payment records in the two social security cards can be integrated into one card, which is convenient for management and use. The specific merger process may vary from region to region, and it is generally necessary to apply to the social security agency of the original insured place and operate according to relevant procedures.

3. If there is no condition for the transfer of social security relationship between the regions where two social security cards are located, or an individual only needs to keep one of the social security relationships, then one social security card needs to be selected for cancellation. To cancel the social security card, you need to go to the social security agency of the original insured place, submit relevant identity certificates and social security cards and other materials, and complete the cancellation procedures according to the process.

The query method of social security card account balance is as follows:

1, medical insurance designated pharmacies and hospitals. The insured person can directly hold the social security card to the designated pharmacy or hospital for medical insurance. Generally, when using social security cards for consumption, you can see the balance of social security cards on the small tickets issued by designated pharmacies or hospitals;

2. Service hotline inquiry. Call the service hotline 12333, and then follow the voice prompts to check the balance of the social security card account;

3, social security website query. Nowadays, social security bureaus in many cities have their own websites. The insured person needs to log in to the local social security network, and then can check the account balance on the social security details page.

To sum up, for the case of having two social security cards in different places, individuals need to choose the appropriate handling method according to their actual situation and needs. Whether the social security card is merged or cancelled, it needs to follow the relevant regulations and procedures to ensure the legality and effectiveness of the operation.
