Israel's National Insurance Institute (Bituah Leumi) will begin distributing benefits to hundreds of thousands of citizens starting November 12. The November payouts will include unemployment benefits, child support, pensions, and disability payments. The largest payment phase of the month has been postponed by one day.
On November 12, unemployment benefits will be disbursed to individuals who have lost their income and meet insurance requirements. The maximum monthly unemployment benefit is 13,769 shekels gross. Additionally, on this date, income support benefits will be paid to individuals and families whose incomes fall below the legal minimum, or who are unable to work. These payments vary based on family status, age, and dependents.
November 15 is the deadline for employers and self-employed individuals to submit reports and pay national and health insurance contributions for October. Timely payment avoids penalties and ensures continued insurance rights.
On November 20, families will receive child allowances. The monthly allowance for the first child is approximately 173 shekels, with subsequent children receiving around 219 shekels each. The state also contributes about 57 shekels per child monthly to the "Savings for Every Child" program, which parents can supplement.
The largest payment phase, involving billions of shekels, is scheduled for November 29. This phase includes disability benefits, with a full general disability pension around 4,711 shekels monthly for those with 75% or higher disability. Payments for special services and children with disabilities will also be made. Elderly citizens will receive old-age pensions, with a basic pension of approximately 1,838 shekels monthly, potentially rising with seniority. Widows, widowers, and orphans will also receive benefits. Other payments on this date include those for work accident victims, alimony recipients, mobility and care allowance recipients, and prisoners of Zion.
