The Beijing municipal government issued the trial implementation of the points system for household registration and announced the modifications on August 11.
According to the draft of the regulation, which was issued last year, applicants should be under 45 years old, have a Beijing temporary residence permit, have no criminal record and have paid social security premiums in Beijing for at least seven consecutive years.
In addition, the points system means employment, accommodation, educational background, skill level, tax payments and credit records, among other things, would be converted into points. Migrants would be able to change their household registration status after reaching a specified amount of points.
The Beijing Municipal Commission of Development and Reform collected 7,658 feedbacks through email and fax and modified items after soliciting public opinions.
“Compared with that of last year, the age limit changed from 45 years old to the retiring age, both full-time and part-time education are valid, but the highest degree only, and [there are] no minus points,” said officials.
