<Anchor> This
is a friendly economic time.
Reporter Han Ji-yeon is also here today (the 31st).
There are some incentives to support low-income working households.
I heard that there is such a thing as a work subsidy or a child subsidy, but they say that the application is open until today.
<Reporter>
Yes, you must apply by today, and if you apply between the 1st of June and the 30th of November tomorrow, the subsidy will be reduced by 10%.
The average expected payment this year is 810,000 won for single-income households, 1.36 million won for single-income households, and 1.37 million won for dual-income households.
The child subsidy is expected to be between 500,000 and 700,000 won per child under the age of 18.
Of course, you must meet the low-income criteria to apply.
From this year, support has been expanded by increasing by 2 million won per household. Single households are less than 22 million won, single-income households are less than 32 million won, and dual-income earners are less than 38 million won.
Earlier this month, the National Tax Service sent a notice to 3.25 million eligible households. Those who think they did not receive it can check it immediately by calling Hometax or the ARS number below.
You can apply right away.
Conversely, even if you receive the notice, as of June 1 of last year, if your assets, including financial assets, are more than 200 million won, the incentive will not be paid.
Only those who applied by today will be judged, and incentives will be paid at the end of August.

But you say that if you work as a dual-income earner, it will be relatively difficult to receive incentives?
<Reporter>
Yes, the benefit rate for dual-income households is only 6.5%, which is far lower than that for single households at 27%.
This is because when two single-person households get married and become a dual-income household, the income of the two does not change, but only the incentives decrease. It is pointed out that a kind of 'marriage penalty' exists.
The child subsidy rate is also lower for dual-income households at 2.6%, which is lower than for single-income households at 6.5%.
In terms of income, the difference between single-income households and dual-income households is only 6 million won, so more consideration is needed for dual-income households.

Now, let's talk about compensation for loss.
Did the application start yesterday?
<Reporter>
Yes, as of 6:00 pm yesterday, the first day of application, more than 1.08 million applications were made in 8 and a half hours, accounting for 67% of the applicants.
If you apply in the morning, it will be sent directly to your account in the afternoon, so about 90% of applicants have already been paid.
There were a lot of reviews on the Internet saying that they had been paid, and there were many responses saying, "Fast deposit is good".
Today, text messages are sent to 1.62 million places where the last digit of the business registration number is odd. From tomorrow, you can apply regardless of odd or even number.
The application can be made 24 hours a day through the Loss Compensation website, and the application is completed by simply entering the business registration number, identity verification, and transfer account.
If you apply by 7pm, the loss compensation will be deposited on the same day.

One of the things the government talked about while drafting a supplementary budget for loss compensation was that it would now increase the amount of payment as much as possible.
<Reporter>
Yes, it's because the payment standards have changed, but now it's because we have to check the exact number to see if we've clearly suffered damage.
In the case of the 1st and 2nd quarantine subsidies, it was recognized as 'reduction in sales' even if only receiving quarantine measures during business hours, but this time, it was judged whether income decreased based on the sales reported by the National Tax Service.
Because the 1st and 2nd quarantine subsidies were implemented before the income declaration was completed last year, this time it was executed after the income declaration deadline, so it is possible to accurately understand the decrease in sales.
Therefore, even if the first and second quarantine subsidies are received, they are not eligible for payment if they do not meet the sales reduction criteria for loss compensation. Considering the amount received, the basic amount of 600,000 won will be paid.
