National Insurance Payments for November 2026 Detailed

Millions of Israeli citizens, including the elderly, disabled, unemployed, families with children, and self-employed individuals, are anticipating their National Insurance payments for November 2026. These benefits are a primary income source for many families, making the payment schedule crucial. Unemployment and income support benefits will be disbursed on Thursday, November 12. Unemployment benefits are for those who lost jobs or were furloughed, with amounts based on prior earnings and age. Income support aims to provide a safety net for those whose income falls below the minimum living standard. Self-employed individuals and employers must report and pay National Insurance and health insurance fees for October by Sunday, November 15, to avoid penalties and late fees. Monthly child allowances are scheduled for Friday, November 20, with amounts varying by child order: 173 shekels for the first child, 219 shekels for the second through fourth, and 173 shekels for the fifth and subsequent children. Additionally, 57 shekels per child will be deposited monthly into savings accounts or bank accounts under the "Savings for Every Child" program. Long-term benefits, including disability, elderly, and survivor benefits, are typically paid on the 28th of each month. Full general disability benefits are approximately 4,711 shekels per month, while basic elderly and survivor benefits start at about 1,838 shekels, potentially rising with seniority. Other benefits include those for work injuries, alimony, mobility, nursing, and prisoners of Zion. As November 28 falls on a Saturday, payments are expected to be advanced to Thursday, November 26, or Friday, November 27, consistent with past practice when payment dates coincide with weekends. The National Insurance Institute will issue an official announcement regarding the exact payment date closer to the end of the month.
