Can I pay social security for two provinces?

Theoretically, it is impossible to pay two social insurances in different cities at the same time, but it is actually feasible:

1 If the company pays social security at work, it can be paid in two places. According to China's existing social security law, everyone can only pay one social security at the same time. However, due to the implementation of social security in China, local payment and no internet connection, this actually caused the same person to pay social security in two places at the same time.

2. If you are still paying, I suggest you stop the social security in one of the places, and it is best to stop the one you paid. Don't stop being paid by the unit. This can avoid great losses. There is no way to refund the paid part for the time being.

3. We can only wait until the two social security systems are transferred together in the future. When the social security system is merged, we will find overlapping parts. The social security bureau will ask for a refund of one of them, and only the individual contribution can be refunded.

How to merge social security paid by different cities?

The social security consolidation methods paid by different cities are as follows:

1, social security card merger, first of all, you need to bring your valid ID card and social security card to the local social security bureau to issue a pension medical payment certificate, and the original unit will issue a resignation certificate;

2. After being insured in the current residence, you need to apply to the local social security bureau for social security transfer in different places, and go through the transfer formalities with the social security bureau where the original unit is located with the transfer certificate, so that the social security information of the two places can be merged.

To sum up, social security can be paid in two different provinces at the same time, but the state will only recognize the social security of one city, and it is best to choose only one of them to enjoy it.
