How many months can social security cover?

Social security can be paid for up to two years.

Social security is calculated forward from the month of payment (calculated according to the payment period, not according to the cumulative month). For example, this month is any time period from April of 10 to April of 2009, which is counted as one year. For example, any time period from 10 April to March 2009 to April 2008 is counted as two years, and only September 2008 is paid separately. Within 2 years, if you need to pay social security, you can pay it according to the social security pension insurance payment formula.

Social security payment process:

1. If the payment is made as an employee of the unit, the unit shall submit a written application and go through the payment formalities at the social insurance agency where the unit is insured;

2. If the payment is made in an individual capacity, the social insurance agency where the household registration is located shall handle the payment formalities according to the principle of territoriality.

3, the municipal human resources and social security departments should review this for the record.

To sum up, it is an important legal obligation to pay back social security, which helps to protect individual social security rights and interests. Therefore, it is suggested that when paying social security, we should abide by relevant laws and regulations, ensure that social security fees are paid in full and on time, and safeguard our own rights and interests. Pay attention to the following items when paying social security. First of all, we must know the specific requirements and time limit of payment in time to avoid missing the opportunity of payment. Secondly, prepare relevant materials and supporting documents, such as personal identification, work contract, salary certificate, etc. In addition, we should also pay attention to verifying the amount and method of payment to ensure accuracy.
