○ FY2015 Payment Months and Calculation Period

The premiums for the year will be divided into 10 installments to be paid from June through March. No payments are made in April or May.
Note:Invoices are mailed in June (for June through October) and November (for November through March).
Please note that households that pay via account transfer will only receive notification of the premium amounts.

• If you have not reported income, please do so for the municipality in which you resided as of January 1. Insurance premiums cannot be reduced unless each and every member of the household files an income report, even if the incomes of all household members are low.
• If you moved into Shinagawa City on or after January 2, the City Office will contact the government of the municipality where you lived previously about your income. At first, you will be notified of the per capita amount only. Once your income has been confirmed, you will then be sent a notification of adjusted premiums.

Insurance premiums will be deducted from the head of household’s pension payments (special collection) between 65 and 74 years of age when all of the following apply.

(1) The head of household is a National Health Insurance member
(2) All the National Health Insurance members in the household are between 65 and 74 years of age
(3) The annual pension amount eligible for special collection is ¥180,000 or more, and the sum of National Health Insurance premiums and Nursing Care Insurance premiums does not exceed half of the pension amount

Note: FY2015 premiums have been fixed for persons who already have National Health Insurance premiums deducted by pension payments; premiums, adjusted for April and June amounts, will be made from August onward. Persons who wish (apply) to pay their premiums by automatic debit from a bank account can have their premium payments handled as ordinary collection rather than as a deduction from their pension payments.
