Can I still pay social security after receiving unemployment benefits?

Payment of social security during the period of receiving unemployment insurance benefits:

1. Individuals don't have to pay medical insurance premiums for employees, but they are borne by unemployment insurance funds, and other types of unemployment insurance funds are not responsible for paying them;

2. Old-age insurance can choose not to pay or continue to pay as a flexible employee;

3. Unemployment, maternity and work-related injury insurance cannot be paid during the period of receiving unemployment benefits.

Article 48 of the Social Insurance Law stipulates that the unemployed shall participate in the basic medical insurance for employees and enjoy the basic medical insurance benefits during the period of receiving unemployment insurance benefits.

The basic medical insurance premiums payable by the unemployed are paid from the unemployment insurance fund, and individuals do not pay the basic medical insurance premiums.

Article 49 stipulates that if an unemployed person dies while receiving unemployment insurance benefits, he shall pay a one-time funeral subsidy and pension to his survivors with reference to the provisions on the death of local employees. The required funds are paid from the unemployment insurance fund.

If an individual dies and meets the conditions for receiving basic old-age insurance, industrial injury insurance and unemployment insurance funeral subsidies, his survivors can only choose to receive one of them.
