How long does it take to pay the social security card before it has a balance?

After the social security card is activated, there will be a month and a half of money in it. The social security card just received cannot be used immediately, and needs to be activated. Only after the activation is successful can the social security card continue to be used. Personal account payment of medical insurance for this month and the previous period shall be paid at the end of that month or the beginning of next month. If the unit receives the social security card after the 20th of each month, it will take one and a half months for the medical personal account fund to arrive. The money in the personal medical insurance account (the medical insurance fee paid by the individual) is returned to the social security card, and it is recorded after the monthly payment, which can be used for you to buy medicine at the pharmacy or go to the hospital for outpatient service and examination. Therefore, the social security card balance will be delayed for a certain period of time, which is a normal phenomenon and can be queried again after a while.

Generally speaking, there will be a balance one and a half months after the social security card is activated. If the balance in the social security card is zero, there are several reasons:

1. Although social security is handled, only old-age insurance is paid, not medical insurance. Only pay endowment insurance, but also social security card. If medical insurance is not paid, there is naturally no money in the social security card.

2. Flexible employees who pay low-grade fees according to the local social security department will generally not refund their money. Every year, the social security department will announce the standard of medical insurance payment, one of which is low-grade. If you pay according to the low grade, there is only a pool fund, no personal account, and no money will be refunded, but the reimbursement ratio will not be affected when you are hospitalized. Only according to the second (high-grade) payment, will there be a personal account and get the money back to the medical insurance card every month.

In the era of Internet technology interconnection, everything is informational. When inquiring whether the social security wages have arrived, you can also take the form of electronic inquiry. That is, first open Alipay, click the card package function on the home page, then click the electronic social security card in the card package, then click the details page of the electronic social security card, and then click the social security inquiry. Finally, you can see whether the social security salary has arrived on the query page. You can also bind the social security card with the trade union mutual aid card for online transaction transfer. In this case, the payment of social security wages will be prompted by the bank, which saves the trouble of inquiry.

In practice, if one or two social security wages are not transferred on the specified date, it is recommended to wait patiently for 1-2 days before checking whether the social security wages are recorded. If you really can't get it, first, you can communicate with the financial staff of the employer, but you should consult the designated bank that pays the social security card. Third, you can find the local labor department to understand why the social security wages did not arrive on time and when.
