Social Insurance Institution in Częstochowa open on Saturday for entrepreneurs. Officials will help with health insurance contributions filing.
By May 22, contributors must submit their annual health insurance contribution for the year 2022. This is a new obligation for them, which is why the Social Insurance Institution (ZUS) in Częstochowa is organizing an open day for entrepreneurs on Saturday, May 20. On that day, from 9:00 am to 2:00 pm, ZUS advisors will be available to explain, assist, and provide guidance on the annual health insurance contribution filing.
“We warmly invite contributors who have not yet settled their health insurance contribution to visit the Częstochowa ZUS this coming Saturday, May 20, from 9:00 am to 2:00 pm. Our contributor advisors will be available to assist. You can inquire about how to prepare settlement documents in the Płatnik program, our staff will clarify any doubts and difficulties that arise during form completion,” says Beata Kopczyńska, regional spokesperson for ZUS in the Silesian Voivodeship. “The annual health insurance contribution filing is a new obligation for contributors, hence our initiative of open days on Saturdays, so that entrepreneurs can seek help calmly on a day free from professional obligations,” adds the spokesperson.
On May 20, 2023, from 9:00 am to 2:00 pm, consultants will also be available at the Telephone Service Center at the phone number 22 560 16 00. Telephone service for customers will be conducted in thematic groups: substantive contributor support and technical assistance.
Furthermore, on Monday, May 22, the contributor service rooms at ZUS in Częstochowa and at the ZUS inspectorate in Lubliniec will be open longer, until 6:00 pm.
Time for settlement is running out
The final deadline for submitting the annual health insurance contribution is May 22, so there is really not much time left. Therefore, it is worth taking advantage of the Saturday duty at ZUS. A training video on the annual health insurance contribution has also been made available on the ZUS website and on YouTube.
Important deadlines
The annual health insurance contribution may turn out to be lower or higher than the total contributions the entrepreneur has paid throughout the year. If there is an overpayment in the settlement and the contributor has no arrears in paying contributions, ZUS will create a refund request on the contributor’s PUE ZUS profile. The request will need to be verified, signed, and sent via PUE by June 1. ZUS will transfer the overpayment to the bank account linked to the contributor’s contribution account, no later than August 1.
If there was a debt on the contributor’s account, the overpayment will be offset against the arrears. However, if there is an underpayment in the settlement, the difference must be settled by payment for the April contribution, which is due by May 22, 2023.
