Do children's social security cards need to be activated

School children's social security cards need to be activated.

At present, the new social security card received by student children only has the social security function, and the card can be used to visit, see and settle payment at the designated medical institutions of the medical insurance, and the social security function of the new version of the social security card can be used normally after the card is issued.

The new social security card also has financial functions. It needs to be activated before it can be used.

The cardholder should go through the activation procedure for the account as soon as possible after receiving the card, and need to go to any branch of his card-issuing bank with his original ID card and social security card to apply for the card, and need to set up two passwords for the account when applying for the card.

After the activation process and password setting, the social security card can be used, and the cardholder can use the card's medical and financial accounts to pay for the corresponding social security benefits as well as to carry out related financial.

Participants can activate the social security application after receiving the card at the human resources and social security department. Within 300 days from the date of receipt of the card, the participant should go to the corresponding cooperative bank branch with the card to activate the financial application by presenting his/her valid ID, otherwise the social security application of the card will be lost.

If a participant has something that he/she can't do in person, he/she can entrust someone else to do it. When delegating to another person, the delegatee needs to hold his/her own ID card and the participant's ID card, as well as a power of attorney. If the card's social security application is lost because the financial application has not been activated, the cardholder needs to go to the designated place of the social welfare department to unlock the card's social security application after activating the card's financial application.
