What is social security base declaration?

Declaration of social security base refers to the declaration of social security base by the insured unit in July every year to the social security agency in the place where the insured unit is registered to pay social security contributions to its employees for the next settlement year.

The contribution base is an important basis for the insured to enjoy the social security benefits, so the unit to declare the contribution base needs to be signed by the employee himself to confirm or use the method of publicity to confirm, if the unit does not declare according to the provisions of the social security agency will be temporarily in accordance with the previous year's monthly contribution base of 110% of the implementation of the social security agency.

The social security card, the Chinese People's **** and State social security card, refers to the integrated circuit (IC) card used in various business areas of human resources and social security, which is uniformly planned by the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security, and issued by human resources and social security departments of various places for the society.

Social security card holders can use the card for real-time settlement of medical insurance personal accounts, for pension insurance affairs, for job-seeking registration and unemployment registration procedures. The card adopts a unified national standard, and the social security number adopts a civil identity number in accordance with the relevant provisions of the Social Insurance Law.

From Jan. 1, 2020, Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan residents who are employed, reside and study in mainland China (the mainland) will have social security cards, and will have the same legitimate rights and interests as mainland (the mainland) residents in participating in social insurance and enjoying social insurance benefits according to the law.

To correctly understand the concept of social security card, it is also necessary to be clear about the relationship between the social security card and other industry IC cards, especially with bank cards.

Since the social security card for the cardholder in the hospital settlement of the "personal account", similar to the bank card "electronic wallet", some regions or manufacturers have adopted the bank card standards to design social security cards. The bank card standard is a specification formulated for the application of bank cards, and its file storage format, command operation, security management and other aspects are designed for various transaction behaviors related to finance. The IC card issued in the field of labor security is mainly used for administrative management, and its main function is to manage information records, which is very different from the function of bank cards.

Social security card in the "medical insurance personal account" with the bank card in the "electronic wallet" there is a fundamental difference, it is recorded in the personal account "account" of the situation, rather than the real "account". It is a record of the "account" in the individual account, not the actual "money". After the cardholder transfers the balance of the personal account to the card, the medical insurance organization is still responsible for the use of the account, even if the cardholder's card is lost or damaged, as long as the funds in the personal account before the loss have not been fraudulently used by other people, they are still owned by the cardholder, and they can still use this part of the account to make medical purchases.

The electronic wallet in a bank card has no relationship with the bank once the user deposits money into the card, and once the card is lost or damaged, the loss is borne entirely by the cardholder. Therefore, health insurance personal accounts should never be handled using the e-wallet model.

There are also places where social security applications and financial applications are put on a card, which is not advocated, because commercial applications and management applications are set on a card, which will cause a lot of drawbacks in the management, and will bring a lot of inconvenience to the cardholder and the management organization, and even cause losses to the cardholder.
