Make sure you re-enrol for your MiCard!

Mon, 14 Nov 2022


A scheduled campaign to replace MiCards, which enable people to claim their benefits or pension at branches of the Isle of Man Post Office, is under way.
 
All MiCards currently in use will expire on 31 December 2022.
Letters are in the process of being sent to all 3,500 users advising them that their card will need to be replaced and explaining what must be done to ensure the process runs smoothly.
 
The MiCard renewal campaign is being undertaken to ensure the information held by the Social Security Division remains up to date, valid and accurate.
 
On receiving their letter, MiCard users must take the following to the branch of the Isle of Man Post Office where they usually collect their benefits/pension:
• The letter
• Photographic identification, eg. passport, driving licence or current MiCard
• Proof of address, eg. household bill, bank statement or tenancy agreement
• The photo ID consent form, if choosing the option to have a photo printed on the new MiCard
 
Following this, a new MiCard will be posted to a customer’s address within four working days. Once it has been received, the card must be activated at the post office.
 
If you think you may have difficulty producing proof of identity or proof of address, or have any other query about the replacement programme, call 686415 or email micardenquiries@gov.im.
