Discontinuance of social security payment in Beijing during the period of studying for a doctorate

1. If you are studying for a doctorate full-time and have no other social needs, you can suspend your social security and health insurance payments so that you can reduce your financial burden and better focus on your studies and research. However, it should be noted that once you stop paying social security and health insurance, it will affect your future job search and other rights and interests.

2. If you still have medical needs or other social security benefits in Beijing, it is necessary to keep paying social security and Medicare.
