The National Insurance Institute of Israel, known as Bituah Leumi, has released its schedule for benefit payments throughout October. The institute provides social and economic support to citizens facing financial hardship or loss of income. Bituah Leumi collects insurance contributions based on income and disburses benefits to eligible individuals, also playing a role in poverty reduction and income redistribution.
According to the official Bituah Leumi website, unemployment benefits and income support payments will be issued on October 12th to those who qualify. Unemployment benefits are intended to provide temporary income for individuals who have lost their jobs and meet specific criteria, including a sufficient work history and registration with the Employment Service. The benefit amount varies based on previous income and other regulations.
Income support is designed to ensure a basic standard of living for those with insufficient funds. Unlike unemployment benefits, prior work experience is not a mandatory requirement for income support, though eligibility is determined by household income, age, marital status, assets, and work capacity, all governed by law. The amount of income support is adjusted to the recipient's personal and family circumstances.
Additional payment dates in October include October 15th, which is the deadline for self-employed individuals and employers to report and pay insurance contributions. On October 20th, child benefits will be disbursed to eligible families. Finally, on October 28th, a range of long-term benefits will be paid, including old-age pensions, disability benefits, survivor benefits, special allowances for severely disabled individuals, work-related injury payments, and alimony.
