The "Hsinchu County Good Pregnancy Program" will be launched on November 1, providing qualified pregnant women with subsidies of up to 20,000 yuan per pregnancy. Because the policy has received great attention and enthusiastic response from the public, County Mayor Yang Wenke announced the upgrade of the program today (10th) at the National Day flag-raising ceremony. As long as the first prenatal checkup date listed in the mother's health handbook is January 1 this year, and she has been registered in Hsinchu County for one year at the time of application, she will be eligible for the subsidy. We hope to take care of more pregnant mothers!

Yang Wenke said that Hsinchu County is a young and dynamic city where many young people live and work in peace and contentment. The county government team has always made building a child-friendly environment a policy priority. After listening to local public opinion, the county government decided to retroactively set the threshold for receiving the handbook from September 1st to January 1st this year, hoping to give pregnant women the most direct power to support pregnancy and help everyone have a safe pregnancy and smooth delivery.

The Department of Social Affairs explained that the subsidy under the "Good Pregnancy Program" is based on the number of pregnancies rather than the number of babies. Applicants can flexibly choose to receive 20,000 yuan in one lump sum (requiring a health booklet, certificates of more than 6 prenatal check-ups, etc.), or in installments; if they choose to receive it in installments, the first time they receive 10,000 yuan, they only need the basic contribution and handbook, and the second time they receive 10,000 yuan, they must submit certificates of more than 6 prenatal check-ups, thereby encouraging pregnant women to have regular prenatal check-ups and grasp the health of their mothers and babies as early as possible.

In principle, people should apply within three months of the expected date of delivery or delivery. If they meet the qualifications but have exceeded the deadline, they can apply for supplementary documents before December 31 this year. Currently, paper applications are available. People can submit the documents in person or by mail to the Women and New Residents Section of the Social Affairs Department of the Hsinchu County Government. An announcement will be made after the online system is completed in the future.
