Citizen Account deposits SAR 2.4 bln for eligible beneficiaries

Saudi Arabia has deposited SAR 2.4 billion in accounts of eligible beneficiaries, including SAR 2.3 billion in June installments and SAR 18.9 million related to previous installments.

Saudi Arabia changed the date of the seventh monthly installment of the Citizen’s Account Program to June 5 instead of June 10.

The seventh payment will cover eligible beneficiaries and registrants until May 10, the program said in a statement, adding that it included 3.71 million families, of which 1.4 million got more than SAR 900.

Applicants for the eighth installment are required to complete their registration forms by June 10.

The Citizen Account recently issued the eligibility results for June payment, Argaam reported.

Last December, Saudi Arabia released the first installment of the Citizen’s Account Program at SAR 2 billion for 82 percent, or 10.6 million, of the registered beneficiaries.
