How long does it usually take to transfer social security?

The process of social transfer generally takes one and a half months. Because the social security transfer is divided into four links, the policy stipulates that each link cannot exceed 15 working days at the longest:

1. The applicant submits a written application for the transfer and continuation of the basic old-age insurance relationship to the social security agency of the newly insured place;

2. The social security institution of the new insured place sends an acceptance letter to the social security institution of the original insured place to provide relevant information;

3. The social insurance agency of the original insured place shall handle the transfer and connection procedures;

4. After receiving the basic old-age insurance relationship and funds transferred by the social security agency of the original insured place, the social security agency of the new insured place shall go through the relevant formalities and notify the employer or the insured person.

Do I need a resignation certificate to transfer to social security?

The social security transfer shall be handled by the employer, that is, Article 50 of the Labor Contract Law stipulates: "If the employer dissolves or terminates the labor contract, it shall issue a certificate of dissolution or termination of the labor contract, and handle the file transfer and social insurance relationship transfer procedures for the employee within 15 days." If the unit fails to handle the social security transfer according to the regulations, but has stopped paying social security, it can handle the social security transfer at the social security center with the endowment insurance manual or social security card.
