Ammon News - The General Social Security Corporation has resolved to provide a maintenance increase to the divorced pensioner irrespective of her pension amount and to eliminate the requirement that prevents this increase if her pension is over (500) dinars when she applies for maintenance.

The Corporation verified that this choice intends to improve social security for women, strengthen their position, and offer improved support, particularly for divorced women relying on a retirement pension, facilitating their access to essential aid needed for daily living. The Corporation remains committed to improving social protection initiatives and assisting all segments of society, in alignment with national objectives aimed at attaining social justice and economic empowerment for women.

The Corporation affirmed that a divorced woman may submit a maintenance grant request upon her retirement or at any subsequent date, regardless of whether her ex-husband is living, as long as the divorced pensioner is a Jordanian or resides in the Gaza Strip within the Kingdom, in line with the guidelines established by the Corporation on this matter.
