Time limit for social security transfer

Insurance Bian Xiao helps you answer, and more questions can be answered online.

Is there a time limit for social security transfer?

If you have not determined your future residence after leaving your job, you can temporarily not transfer social security, and there is no time limit for social security transfer before retirement. If the insured fails to return to the place where the household registration is located for employment, the social security agency of the newly insured place shall handle the transfer and connection procedures in time. However, for men over 50 years of age and women over 40 years of age, the basic old-age insurance relationship should be maintained in the original insured place, and a temporary basic old-age insurance payment account should be established in the new insured place to record all the contributions of units and individuals. Before finding a new job, you can't transfer without a new work unit. If you are worried about the interruption of the payment period, you can continue to entrust a friend to pay in the original insurance area, but it is not cost-effective. You have to bear the personal part (8%) and the part that should have been paid by the employer (20%).

Of course, if the insured person returns to his domicile (province, autonomous region or municipality directly under the Central Government, the same below) for employment, the relevant social security agency at the domicile shall handle the transfer and connection procedures in time. You can follow "How to transfer social security from different places to local areas". Although there is no time limit for social security transfer, Bian Xiao suggested that everyone transfer as soon as possible.

Of course, if you don't transfer back to the local area, you can choose to temporarily suspend social security, as long as the interruption time is not long, it won't have much impact. If you find a new work unit, you can renew your insurance. When you have time, you can transfer the original insurance and merge it into one account, which is allowed by the policy.
