Application deadline
It is understood that the government will refer to the experience of distributing 6,000 yuan in 2011. Since it was announced in March that year, it can be officially accepted for registration in about half a year (August). This time, we hope to speed up the introduction of measures by August.
The tentative date for registration of 10,000 yuan is December 31 next year.
Registration / Payment Method
It is reported that the method of sending money is based on the principle of simplicity and convenience. At present, two types of registration are considered. In addition to providing physical forms to be distributed at district civil affairs offices, post offices and banks, they will cooperate with banks to encourage citizens to register through the online financial management system. You can choose to pay directly to your bank account or receive a check.
Release time / process
It is understood that details such as the actual distribution schedule, how to distribute the distribution, and how long it will take to get it after registration, etc., have not yet been specifically scheduled.
However, the news revealed that giving seniors priority by age is one of the considerations. The authorities will decide as soon as possible after consulting the bank within two days, including consulting the Department of Justice, and the bank will directly confirm the customer's information and the Immigration Department will verify the identity. Process, whether there are legal risks and privacy issues. It is understood that the authorities will discuss with the HKMA and do not rule out the inclusion of virtual banks in the issuance platform.
For those who cannot provide bank accounts and addresses, the authorities consider arranging postal services, which can be registered at post offices and used as self-checks.
Administrative fee
The source revealed that the proportion of the administrative fee for the distribution of money is expected to not exceed 1%. The source said that with reference to the 6,000 yuan sent by the whole people in 2011, the bank charged a government fee of 15 yuan per application form. As there is no service fee for online services, according to the data, the number of users using electronic services in banks has increased by 70% in recent years compared to 2011. It is expected that this time the derived administrative fee budget will be 1% of the total amount of money distributed.
Will it be confusing like last time?
Sources said that the distribution of 10,000 yuan this time is definitely higher than the last distribution of 4,000 yuan, because the eligibility requirements are simple and do not need to be screened by a large number of people. At the same time, the government will set up a special team to follow up the money distribution measures, which involves the Treasury Department responsible for implementation, and the Immigration Department for identity verification.
