How long will social security not be paid?

Three months. Insured personnel should be insured within 3 months after being included in the scope of insurance, and enjoy the next month after paying medical insurance premiums for employees. Failing to go through the insurance formalities within the specified time, or interrupting the payment for three months in a row, it is regarded as interrupting the insurance. After the interruption, you can go through the insurance procedures and pay for 6 months in a row before you can enjoy medical insurance benefits. If it is paid within three months, it will enjoy medical insurance benefits from the next month.

There are five types of insurance in the social security card, and each type of insurance has different regulations on the time of stopping insurance. The termination of endowment insurance does not affect endowment insurance, and it can be paid later or continuously. You need to pay 15 years, and you can get insurance money when you reach retirement age. Medical insurance, suspended for more than three months, no longer enjoy medical insurance reimbursement. Industrial injury insurance, maternity insurance, unemployment insurance, etc. will not be invalid because of suspension, and will not affect individuals.

Therefore, it is best not to stop paying social security for more than three months. Although the law does not clearly stipulate the payment period of social security, it is necessary to recalculate the accumulated years of medical insurance after more than three months, and continue to enjoy medical insurance benefits for half a year later.
