Social security was paid many years ago, can it be paid again now?

Legal analysis: Yes, individuals can only participate in pension, maternity and medical insurance, but not work-related injury and unemployment insurance. Because it has exceeded the three-month overdue period stipulated by law, it can only be reapplied.

Legal basis: People's Republic of China (PRC) Social Insurance Law.

Article 58 An employing unit shall, within 30 days from the date of employment, apply to the social insurance agency for social insurance registration for its employees. If the social insurance has not been registered, the social insurance agency shall verify the social insurance premium it should pay.

Article 63 If an employer fails to pay social insurance premiums in full and on time, the social insurance premium collection agency shall order it to pay or make up within a time limit.
