Who are those who do not deserve the citizen's account?
There are some categories that do not deserve a citizen's account in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. In the first place, the Saudi citizen who lives outside the borders of the Kingdom is not entitled to benefit from this government financial account. Non-Saudis also cannot apply for financial support from the Citizen’s Account Program.
In addition, individuals with very high or very low income are not eligible for support from the Citizen's Account. Eligibility for support is determined based on specific income criteria, so people whose income exceeds these criteria do not meet eligibility to receive support.
Moreover, a Saudi citizen married to a foreigner is not entitled to benefit from the citizen’s account, according to the program’s laws. Likewise, a Saudi mother married to a foreigner is also not entitled to financial support from the citizen’s account.
Finally, eligibility must be available to receive support from the citizen’s account according to the conditions specified by the program. For example, a single man must be at least 24 years old to be eligible for support.
How much is the citizen account amount for each new individual?
The Citizen Account is a program that provides financial support to Saudi families according to the number of members. In the new installment from the citizen’s account, the amount allocated to each independent and dependent individual is 1000 Saudi riyals. In other words, this amount is distributed fairly to each family member. For example, if the family consists of two people, each person gets about 1285 Saudi riyals. This amount contributes to improving the financial lives of Saudi families and meeting their needs. It should be noted that the amount of financial support varies for individuals under the age of 18, as it amounts to 191 Saudi riyals for each dependent.
How much is the salary of an independent individual in the citizen’s account?
The salary of an independent individual is calculated in the Citizen Account Program according to specific criteria. Each beneficiary of support receives an entitlement salary ranging between 300 and 380 Saudi riyals, after submitting documents proving his independence. If the person is over 18 years of age, he is entitled to a support of 418 Saudi riyals. While the head of the family is entitled to support amounting to 722 Saudi riyals. For eligible individuals, the amount of support ranges between 1000 and 7700 Saudi riyals, with the beneficiary receiving a financial amount of 661 Saudi riyals. The beneficiary must be a Saudi citizen, and each eligible individual receives a support amounting to 2000 Saudi riyals. The value of the financial support provided to the independent individual in the citizen’s account may reach 360 Saudi riyals per month. An amount of 600 riyals is disbursed per month as 50% compensation to families with above-average family income, whose monthly income ranges between 15300 and 20159 Saudi riyals. The eligible individual can benefit from this support until he reaches the age of 24 years.
How much is the citizen’s account per person without support?
The amount of the citizen’s account for an individual without support is determined according to several factors, including the individual’s monthly income and the prohibition limit specified by the competent government authority. Accordingly, the amount of the Citizen's Account is calculated for each individual independently and separately from the additional support.
One individual in the citizen’s account receives an amount worth 1000 Saudi riyals, and the prohibitive limit for this individual is set at 2011 Saudi riyals. As for a family of two individuals, they receive a support amount of 1285 Saudi riyals, and the prohibitive limit is set at 413 Saudi riyals.
Can I register for the citizen account without a rental contract?
The Citizen Account Program allows beneficiaries to register in the program even without a lease contract. The program reviews the rent automatically without any intervention from the applicant. In addition, the program announced that the lease contract does not affect the right to support provided, and that the only conditions for eligibility for the citizen account are that the applicant must be a resident of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
Does a married woman register in the citizen’s account?
Married women have the right to register in the Citizen Account Program in some specific cases. The Citizen Account Program in Saudi Arabia is considered one of the government programs that aims to redirect benefits to eligible groups. Based on what was mentioned in the Citizen’s Twitter account, a married woman can register as a main beneficiary in the Citizen’s Account program in some cases, such as the case in which she is divorced, widowed, or married to a non-Saudi.
A married woman must benefit from the service of registering her husband in the citizen’s account as a housewife, and obtain the financial support provided by the program. If one of these mentioned cases applies to her, a married woman can register and benefit from the Citizen’s Account Program as the main beneficiary. It is important to emphasize that there are other categories that can use the citizen account program, such as single Saudi men, families with prisoner families, and incapacitated families.
The Citizen Account Program is an opportunity for those entitled to benefit from the benefits of government financial support, and therefore it is recommended to review the conditions and standards mentioned in the Saudi Citizen Account Program to obtain more accurate and specific information for this category. Eligible married women are encouraged to register in the program to obtain financial support provided by the Citizen’s Account under the specified conditions.
Does the unemployed benefit from the citizen’s account?
The Citizen Account Program provides support to many beneficiaries, including unemployed people. A Saudi person who suffers from unemployment can register in the citizen account and benefit from the financial support provided by the program. To obtain government support, it is necessary to provide some documents such as an ID card, the citizen’s bank account number, and the account to be active. An unemployed person must also meet specific income requirements, as his salary must not exceed twenty thousand riyals. The program works to provide support to all social groups, including people with limited and medium incomes. The program's goal is to reduce the financial burden on citizens and improve their standard of living.
Three people, how much will the citizen’s account be deducted from them?
The citizen account is based on providing financial support to families at a percentage of monthly spending, and includes three people in this case. The amount of support is determined based on a range of factors, including the total household income, the number of family members, and the number of individuals over the age of 18.
For example, if the number of family members is three, and the family’s monthly salary is between 1000 Saudi riyals and 7700 Saudi riyals, the amount of support that the family can receive is 661 riyals per month through the citizen’s account.
A family can view the amount of financial support they are entitled to receive by using an estimated calculator provided by the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Development. This calculator gives an indication of the support expected to be received based on household composition and monthly financial income.
It is worth noting that the salary of a family consisting of three people should not exceed 8800 Saudi riyals, and it is possible for the family to receive an amount of up to 1570 Saudi riyals as financial support through the citizen’s account.
How much does a divorced woman take from a citizen’s account?
When it comes to the amount of money a divorced woman receives from a citizen’s account in Saudi Arabia, we must take into account several factors. The Saudi government provides financial support to divorced women who have custody and are registered in the citizen’s account. The amount granted ranges between 300 riyals and 380 riyals, depending on the value of the divorced woman’s monthly income. This amount is linked to submitting the documents and papers required to qualify for it, as well as the salary you receive from the developed social security, which amounts to 1100 Saudi riyals if you do not support children. But if there are children, the financial value owed to the divorced woman may decrease. This value depends on the number of children the divorced woman supports, and the appropriate amount is determined based on official documents such as a custody deed or a maintenance deed.
