For those who have registered an account other than your own in public fund receiving account
Q. Can't I register an account for someone other than myself at public fund receiving account?
Normally, when local government, etc. pays benefits, it is transferred to the account in the name of the person who is eligible for benefits, and in some cases it may not be transferred to an account that is not in the name of the person. Therefore, if you register an account for a family member who is not the person himself / herself, it may be necessary to confirm the person's account again at the time of payment, and the payment of benefit may be delayed.
Therefore, although it is not a misregistration, we are asking these people to change their registered account to their own account for prompt benefit payment. Under the law, you are required to register your own account. For details, please see public fund receiving account System .
Please take this opportunity to confirm your registered account once again, and if you have registered an account other than your own (including an account in the name of your family), please promptly change it to your own account.

Q1-2 Please tell me how to check if my public fund receiving account information is registered correctly.
A1-2
If you are using Mynaportal for the first time, please follow the Operation Manual and install the "smartphone" app on your Mynaportal.
After installing the app, log in to Mynaportal, click on "public fund receiving account" on the Home tab or "Register Account Information" on the Things to Do tab.

A1-3
In the same way as the answer to A1-2, please log in to Mynaportal and delete the registered account from the registration status of Bank Accounts to Receiving Public Benefits page.
If you do not have a Mynaportal compatible device, you can use your family's smartphone, etc. to confirm your My Number Card.
2. Misidentification of health insurance card information
Q2-1 Please tell us the details of the error in linking the information of health insurance card.
A2-1
When it is necessary to switch insurance cards, such as in the case of employment, job change, retirement, or change in the scope of support, the insurer of the new medical care insurance will register the information of the insured (individuals) in the system (online status confirmation system).
In this case, there are cases in which the insurer performed administrative processing in a method different from the original administrative processing, and thus the data was linked to the data of another person. For example, when the My Number of the insured person is unknown, it is necessary to confirm that the name, date of birth, sex, and address match. However, there are cases in which registration is performed only when some information matches, or when multiple candidates (with the same surname and name, and the same date of birth and sex) are presented, the data is linked without firmly confirming the content of each candidate, which led to the error.
Q2-2 Please tell me how to check if my health insurance card information is registered correctly.
A2-2
If you are using Mynaportal for the first time, please follow the Operation Manual and install the "smartphone" app on your Mynaportal.
After installing the app, click on "health insurance card" on the Home tab or "Using My Number Card health insurance card" on the Things to Do tab to check the registered health insurance card information. You can also check the specific operation image below.
In addition, it is possible to easily confirm the information, although only the name, by using the reading device for My Number Card's health insurance card installed in the medical institutions and pharmacy. If there is a mistake in connecting the person with the same surname and the same name, this alone is not sufficient for confirmation, so it is recommended to confirm the information from Mynaportal.
(*) If you do not have a Mynaportal compatible device, please also try the following methods. In either case, please be sure to log out after confirmation.
- Log in using your My Number Card on a compatible device owned by a family member, etc.
Q2-3 If the health insurance card is linked to information from another person, where should I contact?
A2-3
If the Mynaportal, medical institutions, or pharmacy displays information about someone other than yourself, please contact one of the following and consult with them.
- My Number General Toll-free Number (0120 95 0178) * Please proceed in the order of "4 to 2" according to the voice guidance.
- The holder of your medical care insurance
In any case, if there is a high possibility that information that is not the person himself / herself has been registered, access to the online qualification confirmation system, etc. will be suspended immediately. After that, the insurer will confirm the facts, and if there is erroneous data registered, the registered data will be corrected promptly.
3. Misidentification of Individual Number Card Point
Q3-1 Please tell us the details of why the Individual Number Card Point mis-linkage occurred.
A3-1
We provided procedural support for Individual Number Card Point applications in each local government, but in the terminal operation of this support window, there was a situation in which the applicant or the support staff forgot to log out after suspending the application process, and the next person who applied for Individual Number Card Point with the same terminal registered his / her own payment service. As a result, another person's cashless payment service was linked to the applicant's My Number Card, and another person was granted points that the applicant should receive in the future.
Q3-2 Please tell me how to check if my Individual Number Card Point application is registered correctly.
A3-2

In order to ensure a smooth response, please contact us after preparing the information of "My Key ID," "Application Date and Time," "Individual Number Card Point Service," and "Payment Service ID" at hand by clicking "Check Application Status" on the "Settlement App" site.
4. Convenience Store Issue Service
Q4-1 Please tell me about the false My Number Card of the convenience store certificate Issue service using the Issue.
