Hundreds of thousands of Israeli families and individuals will receive payments from the National Insurance Institute (Bituah Leumi) in November. The majority of these payments are scheduled for November 20 and 29. The institute is distributing various social benefits, including unemployment, income support, child allowances, and long-term disability payments.
On November 12, recipients of unemployment benefits and income support will receive their payments. Unemployment benefits are calculated individually based on age and previous salary, with a maximum of 13,769 shekels per month. Income support is for individuals and families whose earnings fall below the legal minimum.
November 15 is the deadline for employers and self-employed individuals to submit reports and pay mandatory insurance contributions for October. Timely payment avoids penalties and maintains insurance rights.
On November 20, families with children will receive their monthly child allowances, amounting to approximately 173 shekels for the first child and 219 shekels for each subsequent child up to the fourth. Additionally, the state will continue to deposit about 57 shekels per child into savings plans or pension funds as part of the "Savings for Every Child" program.
The largest payment wave of the month, typically on the 28th, has been moved to Sunday, November 29, because the 28th falls on a Saturday. This disbursement includes long-term social benefits such as disability pensions, care allowances, payments for children with disabilities, old-age pensions, and benefits for survivors, those injured in industrial accidents, recipients of mobility allowances, and former prisoners of Zion. The basic old-age pension is around 1,838 shekels, potentially reaching 2,757 shekels with maximum seniority additions. Bituah Leumi advises recipients to check their bank accounts and contact their call center or check their online portal if they encounter any issues.
