Santo Domingo.- The Social Security Treasury (TSS) announced the reimbursement of RD 248,722,015.86 in favor of workers and employers, in accordance with the provisions of paragraph II of article 24 of the Regulation of General Aspects of Affiliation to the Family Health Insurance of the Contributory Regime.

This refund refers to the contributions of affiliates who receive salaries from two or more employers simultaneously, when the sum of these contributions exceeds the contribution ceiling of the Family Health Insurance, established at ten national minimum wages, during the period January to December 2025. In addition, it includes the return of per capita paid for additional dependents and not distributed until December 31, 2025.

Of the aforementioned amount, RD 77,067,555.24 was distributed among 7,179 workers, deposited in most cases directly into their personal accounts at the Banco de Reservas. On the other hand, the remaining RD 171,654,460.62 was allocated to 4,715 employers, who received the accreditation in their payment notifications corresponding to the month of May 2026.

In those exceptional cases where it cannot be accredited, the refund will be made by check, which will be delivered in accordance with the procedures established by the institution, either at the main office of the Social Security Treasury, located at Tiradentes Avenue number 33, second floor of the Social Security Tower, in the National District, or in its regional offices. To facilitate the consultation of the amount corresponding to the workers, the institution enabled a tool on its website (www.tss.gob.do), where citizens can verify the reimbursement by entering their identity and electoral card number.
