Any resident of Yeongdong County, North Chungcheong, is expected to receive 500,000 won per person in livelihood stabilization aid.
Yeongdong County said on the 19th that it will accept applications for the livelihood stabilization aid from the 26th to on the 27th of next month.
Those eligible are residents who have been registered in Yeongdong County since Jan. 1 of this year, and marriage immigrants and permanent residents may also apply. Applications are accepted at the residence eup/myeon offices, and after identity verification, applicants can receive a prepaid card loaded with 500,000 won.
The card can be used through June 30 of this year from the date of receipt. However, to support small businesses, it cannot be used at businesses with annual sales of 3 billion won or more, at entertainment or gambling-related establishments, or for paying utility bills. In myeon (township) areas with limited places to spend, it can also be used at NongHyup Hanaro Mart.
The Yeongdong County Council on this day reviewed and passed a local government ordinance titled "Support for Revitalizing the Livelihood Economy" to provide the livelihood stabilization aid.
Earlier, the county submitted to the county council a first supplementary budget bill including 21.658 billion won for the livelihood stabilization aid project, based on a resident count of 43,231.
