<Anchor> The



application for the COVID-19 coexistence national support fund, which pays 250,000 won per person to 88% of the people, started yesterday (6th). On the first day, more than 5 million people applied and received 1.2 trillion won, but there is still confusion over the payment standards, including those receiving Basic Livelihood Recipients.

Mr. A in his 50s, who became a basic livelihood recipient last month after quitting his job in the aftermath of Corona 19.



I thought I would receive the subsidy given to 88% of the people, but I was informed that I was not eligible for the payment.



Health insurance premiums in June were set at 270,000 won, which was higher than the standard of 170,000 won for subsidies.



When Mr. A, who was embarrassed, checked with the Health Insurance Corporation, he had been living on a monthly rent for three years, but it was recorded as a jeonse in the Health Insurance Corporation.



[Mr. A / Recipient of Basic Livelihood: 'I don't have a car or a house... When I asked, ‘Did you get 270,000 won without anything?’, they set their own prices based on the current market



price

.] After

paying the monthly rent, I had the opportunity to recalculate the health insurance

fee and

apply, but I almost never received the subsidy.



Salary remains the same or has decreased, but workers who have slightly exceeded the payment threshold due to an increase in health insurance premiums are also upset.



Mr. Lee, in his 30s, was also excluded from the list due to the increase in health insurance premiums, although his real-time income decreased due to the recent reduction in working hours due to telecommuting.



[Lee Mo / Office worker: Actually, when I did the calculation, it was over 2,500 won. Since the salary has not increased for the third year (in the vicinity), why is it excluded from this list again?]



Unlike other regions, Gyeonggi Province alone has decided to pay disaster aid to the top 12%, raising controversy over equity.



On the second day of payment, a total of 23,400 objections were received through the National Reporting Center.



Applications will be accepted through the online national newspaper or at the eup/myeon/dong community center in your address area by November 12th.
