Will it stay at "0 yen" if you don't apply? 5 "government benefits and subsidies" that seniors often overlook — A guide to avoiding missed opportunities

The following is an introduction to a LIMO article ([Senior Benefits] Will it stay at 0 yen if you don't apply? 5 "government allowances and subsidies" that seniors often overlook | LIMO) (LIMO)

Now that the new year has begun, many of you may have started reviewing your life and finances.
To start the new year with peace of mind, it is actually most important to properly apply for the "subsidies and benefits you are entitled to."
However, if you don't know about the systems, there are quite a few cases where you end up not receiving them even though an application is required. In this article, we have organized the systems that pension recipients and working seniors may be eligible for in an easy-to-understand way! (LIMO)

✅ ① Pensioner Support Benefit

This is a support system for people whose lives are likely to become unstable on their pension alone.
Those who are 65 or older and within certain income limits are eligible, and it is paid in addition to the pension.
Be careful, as you cannot receive it if you do not apply! (LIMO)

🪙 ② Dependent Pension Addition

An addition that can be received by people who have been insured for a certain period of time and have a spouse or children.
If you meet the conditions, this is a system that increases your pension amount.
Many people don't know about it and haven't applied, so it's definitely a system you want to check. (LIMO)

💼 ③ Benefits and Subsidies for Working Seniors

For those who are getting older while working, there are several employment-related support systems:

• Benefit for Older Job Seekers

• Older Worker Employment Continuation Benefit

• Re-employment Allowance

All of these require an application, and eligible individuals may be able to receive support by properly completing the procedures. (LIMO)

🔍 Key Points for Application

The important thing is that you won't get it unless you apply.
These systems are not paid automatically.
The turn of the year is a great chance to review past documents and check for any missed applications.
Since the application deadlines and conditions for benefits vary, it is also recommended to check with your city office or pension office. (LIMO)
