Will Total Unemployment Benefit Payments Decrease If the Monthly Amount Changes from KRW 1,980,000 to KRW 1,760,000?

Reports have suggested that monthly unemployment benefit payments could fall from approximately KRW 1,980,000 to around KRW 1,760,000. However, as of 2026-09-30, the government's reform proposal would maintain both the total amount of job-seeking benefits and the total number of benefit days, 120–270 days. Under this arrangement, recipients would receive less each month but collect payments over a longer calendar period. However, the current system has not yet been changed to the 1

Fixed, Hybrid, and Variable Mortgage Rates: Why DSR Loan Limits Differ Even When Interest Rates Are the Same

As of September 2026, mortgage loan limits can differ even when the contracted interest rate is the same because the interest rate used in the stress DSR calculation varies depending on whether the mortgage has a variable, hybrid, periodic-reset, or fully fixed rate. In particular, mortgages in the Seoul metropolitan area and regulated areas are subject to a minimum stress interest rate of 3.0%, so the type of interest rate can have a significant impact on borrowing limits. The key distinction is between the interest rate actually paid and the rate used for DSR assessment

Joint Spousal Income for Mortgage DSR: Does Adding Your Spouse's Income Increase Your Loan Limit? Their Debts Count Too

When a mortgage's debt service ratio (DSR) is assessed using a couple's combined income, the spouse's income can be included in evaluating repayment capacity. However, the spouse's existing loan repayment obligations are also taken into account. As a result, having two incomes does not necessarily increase the mortgage limit in direct proportion to the additional income. As of 2026-09-29, the key question is ‘

Mortgage Loan Limits by Annual Salary: In 2026, DSR 40% and Regional Stress Interest Rates Make the Difference

Mortgage loan limits are not fixed at a certain multiple of annual salary. Under 2026-09-29 banking-sector standards, borrowers whose total outstanding loans exceed KRW 100,000,000 must generally comply with the DSR 40% regulation. Mortgage loans are also subject to stress DSR calculations that vary by region and interest rate structure. In the Seoul metropolitan area and regulated regions, loan limits are calculated using an assessment interest rate higher than the actual borrowing rate, which can result in different limits even for borrowers with the same annual income.

If You Convert a Housing Subscription Deposit or Installment Savings Account, Will Your Payment History for Public Housing Carry Over? The Rules for Recognizing Previous Records Differ

Even if you convert a housing subscription deposit or installment savings account into a comprehensive housing subscription savings account, your previous subscription period and payment amounts will not be retroactively recognized as subscription records for national housing. The extent to which previous records carry over depends on the types of housing you were originally eligible to apply for. As of 2026-09-29, the conversion deadline has been extended to 2027-09-30. Therefore, the more important question now is not simply when to convert, but how much of your existing subscription history will be recognized.

Does Receiving a Small Business Policy Loan Eligibility Certificate Guarantee Approval? General Business Stabilization Loans Still Require Bank Review

Receiving an eligibility certificate for the Small Business General Business Stabilization Fund does not guarantee loan approval. Because this program operates through an indirect lending system, applicants must still pass a guarantee institution's or financial institution's review after the Korea SMEs and Startups Agency for Small Business and Markets confirms their eligibility before the loan can actually be disbursed. Applications for indirect loans in the 4 quarter of 2026 are scheduled to open at 10 a.m. on October 6 and remain open until the budget is exhausted.

There is a change for newlywed couples who previously could not apply for a Bogeumjari Loan because their combined income exceeded the existing threshold.

After applying the standard tax rate of 15.4%, the difference is KRW 16,920.
