Old age allowance is a social security measure with the nature of social assistance and social welfare.
Second, the state subsidy policy for the elderly.
At present, the country has a relatively perfect welfare policy for the elderly, and pension subsidies, pension insurance subsidies and rural pension funds all belong to subsidy policies.
Third, the specific subsidy policy.
(1) Old Age Allowance
Several provinces grant old age allowance of more than RMB 100 per month to the elderly over 0/00. In addition to Tianjin, Ningxia stipulates that the standard of old age allowance for urban and rural elderly over 90 years old is 450 yuan per person per month; Followed by Hebei, Shanxi, Inner Mongolia, Jilin, Shanghai, Shandong, Hainan and Shaanxi, it is stipulated that the elderly over 65,438+0,000 years old will be given a monthly allowance or nutrition fee according to 300 yuan. The provinces with the lowest threshold for granting old age allowance are Qinghai and Shaanxi, both of which stipulate that all elderly people over 70 can enjoy old age allowance. Qinghai stipulates that all elderly people who have registered in Qinghai Province and have reached the age of 70 can receive the old age allowance. The specific standard is 70-79 years old, 90 yuan/month; Shaanxi stipulates that 70-79-year-olds are given a monthly living health care subsidy according to 50 yuan. It is worth mentioning that as the elderly grow older, more and more subsidies will be given to them.
Old age allowance processing flow:
1, I apply. Eligible elderly people shall apply to the village or community where their household registration is located by themselves or by entrusting others, fill out the Application Approval Form for Old Age Allowance at County Level in triplicate, and provide the applicant's original ID card and household registration book (three copies each), and three recent one-inch bareheaded photos.
2. Village (community) appraisal. The village and community are responsible for investigating and verifying the application materials, and after publicity without objection, fill in the "Summary Form of County Old Age Allowance" and report it to the town (township).
3, the town (township) audit. The town (township) is responsible for reviewing and inputting the application materials submitted by the village and community, establishing the information base of the old age allowance for the elderly, and reporting it to the county office for aging after publicity without objection.
4, the county aging office for approval. Confirm the qualified objects in writing; Do not meet the conditions, the relevant materials will be returned to the town (township), and the town (township) will inform the applicant and explain the reasons.
5, the town (township) issued. County Office for Ageing will allocate the allowance to the town (township) according to the examination and approval, and the town (township) will punch in the card.
Pension insurance subsidy
Farmers can also receive this subsidy, and the qualification is to reach 60 years old. Among them, the old-age insurance subsidy in previous years was only 60 yuan/month, from 20 17 to 120 yuan/month. The increase of these two subsidies can better protect the lives of the elderly in rural areas.
(3) Rural pension
At present, rural pensions in China include basic pensions and individual contributions. In rural areas, only the elderly who have reached the age of 60 can get a pension. It is worth mentioning that in previous years, the pension subsidy was 55 yuan/month, and this year it was officially raised to 70 yuan/month.
Four. Old age allowance policy of 20 17
It was learned from the Ministry of Civil Affairs that China has successively introduced provincial subsidies for disabled elderly people with financial difficulties. Up to now, 26 provinces have introduced old age allowance subsidy policies, 20 provinces have introduced old-age service subsidy policies, and 17 provinces have introduced nursing subsidy policies. It is found that among the 26 provinces that have introduced the old age allowance, most places provide the old age allowance or nutrition fee to the local registered elderly over 80 years old. Among them, Tianjin has the highest amount of old age allowance, which can reach 500 yuan.
The relevant person in charge of the Ministry of Civil Affairs requested that all localities should earnestly learn from the practices of these areas, speed up the establishment of these systems of benefiting the people in the direction of inclusiveness, equalization and sustainability, and strive to achieve full coverage at the provincial level during the 13 th Five-Year Plan period. In areas where relevant subsidy policies have not yet been introduced, it is necessary to speed up the work progress and introduce policies as soon as possible in light of local conditions. In areas where relevant subsidy policies have been introduced, it is necessary to do a good job in the evaluation of the elderly, gradually improve the subsidy standards and coverage, and effectively enhance the sense of acquisition of the elderly.
The above contents are collected and sorted out. Here, I would like to appeal to everyone that the old age allowance is a social security system for the elderly. Its purpose is to solve the basic living problems of the elderly and play an important role in ensuring their quality of life. According to the general requirements of "low standard, wide coverage, basic protection, multi-level and sustainability", the old-age allowance for the elderly who enjoy the old-age allowance will innovate the welfare system model for the elderly, improve the old-age security service system, establish a long-term mechanism to ensure the basic needs of the elderly, and promote the development of supplementary old-age welfare to moderately inclusive social welfare, so that the basic life of the elderly can be guaranteed and the quality of life of the elderly can be continuously improved.
