Gwonseon Ward Distribution of Family Registration Service Information Guide

Gwonseon Ward (Ward Director Kim Jung-su) announced on the 29th that it will produce information guides to help residents easily process follow-up procedures related to various family registration reports, including birth, death, name change, and marriage, and will distribute them through the ward's comprehensive civil service center and related institutions.

According to department officials, among the family registration reports received by Gwonseon Ward last year, birth, marriage, death, name change, and divorce were the most common categories. Reports from residents of nearby Hwaseong and Osan cities were also numerous, with an average of over 10,500 family registration cases being processed annually.

Accordingly, the ward plans to compile and distribute easy-to-understand leaflets covering essential matters that must be addressed following family registration reports, such as health insurance enrollment after birth reporting, application for childcare support for third and subsequent births, survivor pension application after death reporting, automobile and property inheritance, cremation fee reductions at Suwon Yeounghwa Crematorium for Hwaseong and Osan residents, address change reporting after marriage or divorce reporting, and reissuance of resident ID cards and driver's licenses after name change reporting. These will be organized after gathering input from related agencies.

Lee Tae-soon, director of the Comprehensive Civil Service Department, stated, "Through this information guide, we expect to prevent civil complaints and disadvantages such as late report penalties, and to contribute to forming regional consensus through qualitative improvement of civil service and expansion of civil services in the Suwon metropolitan area (Hwaseong and Osan). We will continue to provide high-quality administration that satisfies citizens through monitoring and surveys," he said.
