Gyeongnam Province officially begins settlement support for Aviation Agency migrant employees
Gyeongsangnam-do, under the leadership of Governor Park Wan-soo, has prepared various grants to support the early settlement of employees of the Aviation Agency and to facilitate family migration.
The province announced that it plans to start distributing family settlement grants, children's scholarships, and childcare support to applicants from the end of February. This aims to assist employees and their families migrating to Gyeongnam in settling down steadily.
Overview of Family Settlement Grants and Children's Scholarships
The grants available for employees of the Aviation Agency and their accompanying families are as follows:
First, a family settlement grant of 2 million won per accompanying family member will be provided, with a maximum of 8 million won available. Next, a scholarship for elementary, middle, and high school children will be offered, providing 500,000 won per child monthly for up to 2 years. Additionally, childcare support will be provided for preschool children, allowing families to receive 500,000 won per child monthly for a maximum of 2 years.
This support means that a family of four could receive benefits totaling up to 41 million won, which is regarded as the best support scheme in the country.
Jinju City and Sacheon City provide additional support... Migrating employees also included
Starting this year, Jinju City and Sacheon City are also beginning to provide settlement grants and children's scholarships. Notably, the settlement grants provided by Jinju and Sacheon Cities will include not just families but also the Aviation Agency employees themselves, supporting stable settlement.
For example, an employee migrating to Gyeongnam with two children in elementary and middle school, along with their spouse, can combine the support from the province and the cities to receive a total benefit of 41 million won. This support policy is expected to promote the influx of population into the region and aid the smooth settlement of the Aviation Agency’s employees.
