AIA query was submitted to the official Citizen’s Account beneficiary service regarding the documents required for a married woman to register as a primary beneficiary. The inquiry stated: "My husband has been absent for 11 months, left me at my family’s home, does not send any financial support, and I have no place to live."
Citizen’s Account responded via its X (formerly Twitter) page, explaining that a married woman may register as a primary beneficiary in specific cases: if she is married to a non-Saudi, if the head of household is imprisoned, if the head of household is legally incapacitated, or if the husband is absent. Supporting documents must be provided to verify the situation.

The program noted that in cases of an absent husband, required documents include a police report or a legal certificate confirming absence or loss. If there are children, a birth certificate or family card must also be attached.
Citizen’s Account confirmed that if a married woman does not fall under these categories, she should be added as a dependent under the head of household.
