Can social security stop by itself?

Individuals can apply to their units, or go to the local social security agencies to stop paying social security, and then stop paying social security.

First, apply to the employer to stop paying social security.

Individuals who work in the unit may apply to the personnel or financial department of the unit where they work to stop paying social security. The unit will handle the social security payment suspension procedures for employees in accordance with relevant regulations. When applying, individuals need to explain the reasons for stopping payment, and may need to provide relevant supporting materials. According to the actual situation, the unit will inform individuals of the specific steps and precautions for stopping payment.

Two, to the local social security agencies to stop payment procedures.

Individuals who do not have a work unit or have left their jobs can go through the formalities of stopping payment at the local social security agency. Before handling, individuals need to prepare relevant identification materials and social security payment certificates. In social security institutions, individuals need to fill in the application form for stopping payment of social security and submit relevant supporting materials. The social security agency will conduct an audit according to the individual situation, and inform the specific stop payment time and follow-up matters.

It should be noted that the suspension of social security payment may have an impact on the social security rights and interests of individuals. For example, social security benefits, such as medical insurance and endowment insurance, will no longer be enjoyed during the period of suspension of payment. In addition, if the payment is stopped for a long time, the social security account may be cancelled, which will affect the enjoyment of social security benefits in the future. Therefore, before deciding to stop paying social security, individuals should fully understand the relevant policies and impacts and carefully consider them.

At the same time, for the unit, it also has the responsibility and obligation to pay social security for employees. If the unit stops paying social security without the employee's consent, it may face legal responsibility. Therefore, when individuals apply to stop paying social security, they should fully communicate with the unit to ensure that both parties reach an agreement.

To sum up:

Individuals can apply to their units, or go to the local social security agencies to stop paying social security, and then stop paying social security. However, before deciding to stop paying, we should fully understand the relevant policies and impacts and consider them carefully. At the same time, the unit also has the responsibility and obligation to pay social security for employees, and individuals should fully communicate with the unit to ensure that both parties reach an agreement.
