Understanding the 2026 Housing Benefit rules can help eligible households plan for rental expenses or necessary home repairs. Eligibility is based on recognized income at or below 48% of the standard median income. The monthly threshold is KRW 1,230,834 for a one-person household and KRW 3,117,474 for a four-person household. Rental benefits use the lower of standard rent and actual rent, with a possible household contribution depending on income. Eligible owner-occupiers receive inspection-based minor, medium, or major repairs instead of cash assistance. Applications can be submitted year-round through Bokjiro or the Administrative Welfare Center serving the applicant’s registered address.

Approximately KRW 10.3 trillion in unclaimed insurance benefits became the focus of a targeted outreach campaign beginning July 7, 2026. Understanding the claim process matters because not every benefit follows the same path. Find My Insurance allows users to review enrollment records and interim, maturity, and dormant benefits after identity verification. Straightforward claims may qualify for simplified online filing, while large payouts or cases requiring beneficiary confirmation are reviewed separately by the insurer. The guide also explains interest treatment, the correct inquiry process for heirs, and why users should enter the official service address directly rather than trust text-message links or paid refund agencies.

Auto Insurance Coverage Criteria for Vehicle Flooding and Damage from Typhoons and Torrential Rain
Vehicle damage caused by floods, typhoons, strong winds, or falling objects may not be covered simply because a policy includes own-damage insurance. Coverage can depend on whether a single-vehicle accident rider is included, how the incident occurred, the vehicle’s insured value, and exclusions involving intentional conduct or gross negligence. Policyholders should also know that belongings left inside the vehicle are generally outside own-damage coverage. After flooding, avoid restarting the engine, document the waterline and surrounding scene, and notify the insurer promptly. Understanding these details before severe weather arrives can reduce additional damage and coverage disputes.
