When Ms. Sun Yazhen went to the bank to collect her pension in September 2024, she noticed that she hadn’t received any payment from the social security agency that month. She asked the bank employee what happened and they replied that she didn’t finish certain verification steps. She went home and confirmed that she had already finished all the required steps. However, when she went to the bank again in October 2024, there was still no payment for that month.
Ms. Sun went to the Fengman District Government Affairs Hall to inquire about the issue and was told that her pension was suspended because she had been sentenced to prison for practicing Falun Gong.
