- Israel's National Insurance Institute advances major November benefit payments to November 26th.
- Unemployment and income support payments are scheduled for November 12th.

Hundreds of thousands of Israeli households relying on National Insurance payments will receive their benefits earlier in November. The largest payout installment, typically disbursed on the 28th of the month, has been moved up by two days to Thursday, November 26th. This advance is due to the 28th falling on a Saturday, when interbank clearing systems are inactive, and aims to ensure recipients get their funds before the final weekend of the month.
Earlier in November, on Thursday, November 12th, payments for employment support and subsistence will be issued. This includes unemployment benefits, with a maximum gross monthly amount of 13,769 shekels, and income support for individuals and families below a basic subsistence level.
Employers and self-employed individuals are reminded that their reporting and payment deadline for October's national insurance and health insurance contributions is Sunday, November 15th. Meeting this deadline prevents penalties and ensures continuous insurance coverage.
On Friday, November 20th, child allowances and the "Savings for Every Child" program payments will be distributed. Child allowances are approximately 173 shekels for the first child and 219 shekels for subsequent children, while the state contributes about 57 shekels monthly per child to a savings plan, with an option for parents to double this amount from the child allowance.
The accelerated November 26th payment will also include disability pensions, special services grants for those with daily functioning difficulties, and benefits for children with disabilities. Additionally, it covers old-age and survivor pensions, with basic pensions around 1,838 shekels for individuals, and other benefits for work accident victims, alimony recipients, and former prisoners of Zion. Recipients are advised to check their bank accounts on the payment day and contact National Insurance for any discrepancies.
