Can social security be refunded in a few years?

You can't surrender. After the promulgation and implementation of the Social Insurance Law, the old-age insurance can not be surrendered unless it reaches the retirement age, such as death on the job, settlement abroad, repeated payment, etc. If the payment is less than 15 years when you retire, you can voluntarily withdraw from your personal account. Although it cannot be returned, it can be renewed or transferred according to personal circumstances. According to the relevant regulations of our country, if an individual who participates in the basic old-age insurance for employees reaches the statutory retirement age, and the accumulated payment is less than fifteen years (including the extension of payment according to the provisions of Article 2), and has not been transferred to the new rural social endowment insurance or urban residents' social endowment insurance, the individual may apply in writing to terminate the basic old-age insurance relationship for employees. After receiving the application, the social insurance agency shall inform it in writing of its right to transfer to the new rural social endowment insurance or urban residents' social endowment insurance and the consequences of terminating the basic endowment insurance relationship for employees. After my written confirmation, I will terminate the employee's basic old-age insurance relationship and pay me the amount stored in my personal account in one lump sum.

Legal basis:

"Implementation of certain provisions"

Article 2 When an individual who participates in the basic old-age insurance for employees reaches the statutory retirement age, if the accumulated payment is less than fifteen years, the payment may be extended to fifteen years. After the implementation of the Social Insurance Law, if the payment is extended for five years but still less than fifteen years, it can be paid in one lump sum for fifteen years.

Article 3 Individuals who participate in the basic old-age insurance for employees who have paid less than 15 years after reaching the statutory retirement age (including extending the payment in accordance with Article 2) may apply for transfer to the new rural social endowment insurance or urban residents' social endowment insurance where their household registration is located, and enjoy the corresponding old-age insurance benefits.
