New Family Care Allowance Policy in Gyeonggi Province
Hello, this is the Yangju City SNS Supporters.
As we transition from 2025 to 2026, a new family care allowance policy has been introduced in Gyeonggi Province.
The Gyeonggi Province family care allowance can be applied for monthly in the first half of the year. The eligibility criteria are determined based on the age of the child and the family's income, with higher allowances available for families with more children.
Application periods and care start dates vary slightly by region in Gyeonggi Province. In Yangju City, applications are accepted from January to November, while care can start from January to December. You can apply through the Gyeonggi Province Minwon24 mobile service.
Let's take a closer look at the application process, which requires a power of attorney from the care assistant for bulk applications.
The Gyeonggi Minwon24 website has a prominently displayed banner, making it easy to find. By clicking the 'Apply' button, you can start the application process, but you must log in first.
After agreeing to the privacy policy, you will need to input your application information, starting with the caregiver's details.
Next, you will enter the care assistant's information, specify the care hours, days, and location. Once you input the recipient's information and bank account number, the application form is complete, and you can proceed to the next step.
Now, you will need to attach required documents. The necessary documents may vary for each applicant, including family relationship certificates, resident registration details, and verification of caregiving gaps. You can refer to the attached files for the required documents.
If you need documents like family relationship certificates or resident registration, the internet Minwon24 service works well. However, if you're not comfortable using the internet, you can visit your local administrative welfare center to use the self-service document issuance machine.
I visited the Okjeong 1-dong Administrative Welfare Center near my home to obtain the necessary documents.
You can use any center, not just the one nearby, so feel free to choose a convenient location!
In the lobby on the first floor, there were two self-service issuance machines available. On that day, there were a few people using them! While there is a counter service, it tends to have longer wait times, making the self-service machine more convenient.
Next to the self-service machine, I noticed a list of documents available for printing. There were more options than I expected!
I needed a resident registration certificate and a family relationship certificate. After selecting the desired button, I moved to the next screen.
The cost was around 200 won, and I had to provide a fingerprint for identity verification. The instructions on the screen were clear, making the process easy!
Card payments are accepted, and I used my card, but there was also a coin slot available.
Once the fingerprint verification was complete, the documents were printed out!
Having access to a self-service machine can be very helpful, especially when you need to submit documents but don't have a printer at home.
After obtaining the required documents, I had some free time and explored the administrative welfare center. I was particularly intrigued by the clothing exchange located on the fourth floor.
The elevator had an introduction about it. It seemed to be a place where children's clothes and school uniforms could be exchanged for free. They even give you a bag when you donate clothes, which was quite appealing, so I decided to check it out.
The exchange takes place on the third Wednesday of every month and operates without staff on weekdays. It allows for the exchange of school uniforms and children's clothing, which is great for quickly growing kids and teenagers.
As soon as I got off the elevator, the door was wide open, making it feel welcoming.
The self-service operation is a significant advantage, allowing visitors to come without any pressure.
While the selection of clothes wasn't vast, it was neatly organized, and I noticed some empty hangers, suggesting that people were indeed using the service!
Since these were children's clothes, they were in excellent condition. The small garments hanging there looked even cuter!
There was also a section for school uniforms. While the variety wasn't extensive, items like shirts and pants could be helpful in emergencies.
There was even a corner for stuffed animals! Some looked brand new, and the sign encouraged visitors to take them freely. After browsing, I picked up a plush toy.
There was a feedback tree with various notes from residents, showcasing a warm and cute sense of community sharing.
Don't forget to take advantage of the family care allowance in 2026. I hope it helps you!
Also, there are many small programs run by local administrative welfare centers, so if you take a walk or visit for administrative purposes, you might discover something unexpected.
