The distribution of social assistance (bansos) in 2024 still leaves a number of problems, especially related to the Population Identification Number (NIK) of KTPs of people who are not registered as recipients. This obstacle is not only limited to the unregistered NIK, but also includes cases of rejection during the verification process of aid recipient data.
But don't worry! The first step you need to take is to understand the reason why your KTP NIK is not listed in the 2024 social assistance recipient list. That way, you can take the right action to overcome it.
The Population Identification Number consisting of 16 digits is a unique identity listed on the Population Identity Card of every Indonesian citizen. NIK is the main key in the national population database system that contains various important information about a person, including socio-economic status which is the basis for consideration in the distribution of social assistance.
Here are some reasons why you cannot check your KTP NIK as a recipient of 2024 social assistance, reported by brilio.net from various sources on Saturday (16/11).
1. Does not meet administrative criteria: Administrative problems such as incomplete population data or an expired ID card could be the main cause.
2. Deemed ineligible for social assistance: If your income exceeds the established criteria limits, you may be deemed ineligible.
3. Already registered as a beneficiary of other assistance: If you are already receiving assistance from another government program, your registration may be rejected.
4. Errors in the data input process: Technical errors such as typing the NIK or personal data incorrectly can also cause the NIK to not be registered.
5. Potential or existing failure to deliver: Technical problems such as problematic recipient accounts or addresses that cannot be found can cause failure to deliver.
If you experience any of these problems, you should check directly with the local social services. If you have never received social assistance and meet the criteria, you can register online or offline.
