According to Minister of Labor and Social Protection Askarbek Yertayev, banks will begin sharing account and deposit data of families applying for state aid with the ministry starting January 1, 2027, subject to recipient consent.
Consent must be granted by both the aid recipient and their family members. The information will be used to determine the household’s actual financial standing when assigning state allowances.
The primary tool for assessing financial status will be the Digital Family Card, which aggregates data from various state information systems and contains more than 50 indicators: employment, income, property, credit obligations, education, and others. Household welfare assessments will be conducted monthly. According to Prime Minister Olzhas Bektenov, budget savings in 2027 will amount to 700 billion tenge, with freed-up funds reaching approximately 2.5 trillion tenge over three years.
