Sending a question through the Government Electronic Information Portal, reader D.V.L asked: "I was born on October 10, 1967, a civil servant in the health sector, and have paid compulsory social insurance for 34 years and 11 months.
On January 1, 2025, I had a decision to retire early according to Decree No. 29/2023/ND-CP and it was not until June 26 that I received the support fund.
I know that Decree No. 178/2024/ND-CP of the Government takes effect on the same day I have a retirement decision (January 1, 2025) and there are cases where there is a retirement decision from January 1, 2025 according to Decree No. 29/2023/ND-CP but have not yet enjoyed the policy, but will still be applied according to Decree No. 178/2024/ND-CP.
I would like to ask, in my case, is Yen Bai province (old), now Lao Cai province, applying the regime for me according to Decree No. 29/2023/ND-CP correct? ".
