Hwasun-gun Provides Moving-in Incentives and Student Moving-in Congratulations Money

[Hwasun=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Ji-woon] Hwasun-gun, Jeollanam-do is discovering and promoting new policies to attract population in response to population decline.

According to the county on the 1st, the county revised the 'Hwasun-gun Population Policy Basic Ordinance' last year to establish a basis for population inflow policies and promulgated it on December 15 last year.

Following the enforcement of the revised ordinance, for the first time this year, relocation incentives and student relocation congratulatory payments will be provided.

The relocation incentive targets general residents, and the student relocation congratulatory payment targets students using dormitory facilities in the Hwasun area. Payments are made after residing for a certain period following relocation to Hwasun.

The relocation incentive targets residents who had their resident registration in another area for more than one year, relocated to the county after the ordinance enforcement date (December 15 last year), and have continuously resided for more than six months. The support fund totals 250,000 KRW and is paid in three installments.

The student relocation congratulatory payment targets students residing in dormitory facilities such as high schools, universities, and Jeonnam Hak-suk in the Hwasun area. It is paid to those who relocate to the county after the ordinance enforcement date (December 15 last year), register their residence, and continuously reside.

From 10 months after relocation up to 50 months, a total of 1,000,000 KRW is paid in five installments of 200,000 KRW each.

Both the relocation incentive and the student relocation congratulatory payment are paid in local currency, the Hwasun Sarang Gift Certificate.

Applications for payment can be made at the administrative welfare center of the resident's town or township (dormitory students apply at the dormitory) starting from six months after the relocation report.

The county confirms eligibility among applicants and finalizes recipients.

A county official said, "Although various population policies have been promoted, the ordinance was revised and relocation incentive policies were implemented to promote relocation incentives more actively," adding, "We expect population inflow effects through the promotion of relocation incentive policies."
