I'm from Fuzhou, Jiangxi, and I'd like to ask if I can stop paying social security after 15. But I haven't reached retirement age.

1. Statutory retirement age: 60 years for men and 50 years for women (55 years for female cadres and 55 years for flexible employment).

2. Minimum payment period of social security 15 years. After reaching the statutory retirement age, you can enjoy the monthly pension after going through the retirement formalities.

3. If a work unit is insured to pay social security, whether you have paid the minimum payment period 15 years or not, you can't stop paying for no reason. Payment must be made to the statutory retirement age, and payment can only be stopped if you are unemployed.

4. Social security means that the longer the payment period, the more contributions, and the more pensions you receive when you retire.
