Anyang City to Conduct Resident Registration Fact-Finding Survey for All Citizens... Until November

Anyang City 'Resident Registration Fact-Finding Survey' Poster

Anyang City in Gyeonggi Province will conduct a survey until November 10 to verify whether residents' registered addresses match their actual places of residence.

This survey will be carried out through a non-face-to-face digital investigation where citizens access the 'Government24' app to respond to the fact-finding inquiry, followed by visits from community leaders and public officials to confirm the residence.

Home visits will be conducted for households that did not participate in the non-face-to-face digital survey and for households targeted for focused investigation.

The households targeted for focused investigation include ▲vulnerable welfare groups (high-risk individuals among those identified by the Ministry of Health and Welfare as welfare crisis households) ▲suspected deceased persons ▲children with long-term absenteeism or of school age but not enrolled ▲centenarians aged 100 or older ▲and those missing for more than five years.

In particular, Anyang City is advancing this resident registration fact-finding survey by about two months compared to previous years to coordinate with the 'Unregistered Birth Child Reporting Period.'

This is to proactively identify children whose births have not been registered amid growing social concern about unregistered births.

Anyang City has formed a dedicated task force (TF) for supporting unregistered birth children and will operate the TF from the 17th of this month until the end of October.

If voluntary reporting is made during the resident registration fact-finding period, fines imposed under the Resident Registration Act can be reduced by up to 80%.

Mayor Choi Jae-ho of Anyang said, "This survey is for accurate policy formulation and provision of administrative services, and we ask for the active participation and cooperation of all citizens," adding, "We will do our best to find unregistered birth children and identify and support citizens in welfare blind spots to the greatest extent possible in connection with the resident registration fact-finding survey."
