Will the social security I bought while working in Shenzhen be cancelled if I haven't paid it for many years?

I used to work in Shenzhen, but I haven't paid social security for many years and I won't cancel it.

Social security records will not be cancelled, unless Shenzhen social security transfer is actively handled, otherwise Shenzhen social security records will be cancelled. The payment period of medical treatment suspended for more than 3 months will be cleared, which is related to the upper limit of hospitalization reimbursement for serious illness. If there is a medical account balance, this balance will not be cleared.

If you need to apply for social security card transfer employment in different places, the specific process is as follows:

1. After the insured establishes the basic social security card relationship in the new employment place and pays the fee according to the regulations, the employer or the insured submits a written application for the transfer and continuation of the basic social security card relationship to the social security agency in the new employment place.

2. The social security agency of the newly insured place will review the application for transfer and continuation within 15 working days, send an acceptance letter to the social security agency where the original basic social security card of the insured person is located, and provide relevant information. Do not meet the transfer conditions, make a written explanation to the applicant or the insured.

3. The social security agency where the original basic social security relationship is located shall handle all the transfer and connection procedures within 15 working days after receiving the acceptance letter.

4. The new insurance agency shall complete the relevant formalities within 15 working days after receiving the basic social security card relationship and funds transferred by the social security agency where the original basic social security card relationship of the insured person is located, and notify the employer or the insured person of the confirmation in time.
