Title: Iran Streamlines Cash Subsidy System with New Registration and Verification Protocols
Tehran – In a significant move to enhance the efficiency and accuracy of its national social welfare system, Iran’s Subsidy Targeting Organization has announced a comprehensive update to its executive procedures.
Strengthening the System’s Integrity
The newly amended directive, which is immediately effective, focuses on standardizing the process for managing household registrations, particularly in cases where individuals over the age of 18 seek to separate from the head of their family unit. The core objective of this administrative refinement is to create greater coherence and integration of identity data across all relevant government platforms.
A key feature of the update is its alignment with the national database maintained by the Civil Registration Organization. This integration is designed to increase precision in family unit identification, prevent the submission of non-genuine requests, and ultimately improve the overall mechanism for distributing cash and subsistence subsidies to the populace.
New Requirements for Household Separation
Under the revised rules, any request to separate a member from a family’s subsidy file will only be processed after the relevant changes have been fully registered and verified within the official systems of the Civil Registration Organization (ncr.ir).
For separations based on reported incompatibility with the head of the household, the process now mandates the presentation of a valid and final ruling from the judicial authorities. Without such a court order, which must also be reflected in the national civil registration system, no modifications to the household structure for subsidy purposes will be permitted.
Subsequent Economic Assessment
Following the successful registration of any new or modified household unit, the Ministry of Cooperation, Labour, and Social Welfare will proceed with its standard economic assessment. This crucial step involves categorizing the household into the appropriate income decile to ensure the equitable and targeted distribution of state subsidies, in line with the nation’s welfare policies.
This procedural enhancement underscores the government’s ongoing commitment to the responsible and transparent management of its social support programs.
