Will there be a pension increase in 2020?
The answer is unequivocal - yes. From January 1, the amount of payments for non-working pensioners will be increased. Previously, the bonus was accrued no earlier than February 1, because it depended on Rosstat data on inflation, but now the procedure has been somewhat accelerated. Maxim Topilin, Minister of Labor, noted that the bonus will be indexed by 3.8 percent. This is necessary in order to provide people with a decent old age, and also to make the increase in amounts more tangible.
According to Rosstat, inflation in 2020 was only 3%, although 4% was budgeted, so it turns out that the value of the fixed premium will be greater than the percentage of real inflation. This will make life a little easier for older people. The average size of a regular old-age pension is now just over 13 thousand rubles, that is, the increase in pensions in Russia in 2020 will be about 400 rubles.
For working pensioners
A third of Russian pensioners (14 million people) are officially employed, which means that indexation does not apply to them. It was canceled several years ago due to a budget deficit, so now they only consider increasing the length of service and insurance coverage. This is due to the fact that companies continue to pay insurance premiums for working pensioners. These contributions are transformed into points, and later the cost of one point will be 81.49 rubles.
The higher the salary, the more pension points you can get. There are restrictions: the maximum amount of a fixed payment cannot exceed three points, that is, 245 rubles. But there are other tools, for example, a working pensioner can temporarily refuse payments in order to later receive an increased coefficient. True, a small number of pensioners tried to use this service.
For military personnel
Since January 2012, pensions for military personnel have been calculated at the rate of 54% of the actual salary and must be increased by 2% every year in order to subsequently reach a 100% level. However, this provision was later repealed at the legislative level until January 1, 2019. This applies not only to army personnel, but to all employees of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, firefighters, representatives of the Russian Guard and drug control. Later, the size of military pension payments will not change, remaining at the same level.
Pension increase in August 2020 for working pensioners
In August 2020, working pensioners will begin to receive an increased pension as a result of adjustments made by the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation.
Unlike the traditional indexation of labor pensions, when their sizes increase by a certain percentage, this increase in pension is of a purely individual nature, its size depends not only on the level of wages of the working pensioner, but also on his age.
That is, the longer a citizen is in retirement, the smaller the number of years over which the amount of contributions paid for him will be divided, as a result of which the increase in pension will be greater.
How will the insurance pension change from January 1, 2020?
The size of the insurance portion will be indexed by 3.8 percent: the individual coefficient will increase from 78.58 rubles to 81.57 rubles. This means that insurance payments throughout the country will increase by 300 rubles. Thus, the survivor's payment will be 8,900, social - 8,700, old age - 14,000. The amount of the insurance portion will increase by almost 183 rubles. It should be noted that the percentage of pension increases in 2020 concerns only the insurance part, while social benefits will begin to increase only from April 1, 2020.
By what percentage will it increase?
The nominal increase is very small: 3.8 percent of the insurance portion. At the same time, this innovation will not affect working pensioners; indexation is not provided for them. This moratorium was introduced in 2020 and was due to the difficult situation of the economy. Then the abolition of this indexation allowed us to save 12 billion rubles, and this is a significant saving.
The procedure for recalculating the pension coefficient
The pension reform took place in 2020, after which the individual pension coefficient or IPC became the most important component of payments. The number of cumulative points reflects the full amount of insurance premiums paid by the employer for the employee. To receive the insurance portion, a Russian citizen must earn 13.8 points. This figure will change; by 2025 it should increase to 30 points. If a person cannot score this number of points (the required length of service), then he will not receive the payment.
In addition, in the new year 2020, changes will affect the cost of IPC. For indexation, the budget includes a figure of 3.8 percent, which means one point will equal 81.49 rubles. New benefits will be assigned taking into account the new figures, and the old ones will increase as a result of recalculation. You can earn a limited number of points per year:
- 2017 – 8.26 points;
- 2018 – 8.7 points.
Increase in fixed payments to the insurance pension
In addition to the IPC, the accrual formula includes a second constant value - a fixed payment. Its size is established by law and is calculated by the state for all types of insurance pensions. The only people who do not receive it are military personnel and pensioners, who have the right to receive additional support. From January 1, 2018, this part will be increased by 3.7%, that is, the increase in old-age pension in 2020 will be 4,982 rubles. It may vary depending on what category the recipient belongs to or what type of security it is.
Prohibition on indexation of pensions for working pensioners
Working pensioners during the period of work do not have the right to index the amount of a fixed payment to the insurance pension. However, in the event of dismissal, the pensioner will receive the amount of the insurance pension and a fixed payment to it, taking into account the indexation and adjustment that took place during the period of his work, starting from the 1st day of the month following the month of termination of work. Also see:
- «Is it possible for a pensioner to resign to index his pension and get a job again??»;
- «How long does it take to increase your pension after dismissal??».
When will the social pension be increased in Russia?
This will happen on April 1, 2020. In addition, some categories of pensioners will be able to additionally receive sets of social services and a monthly cash supplement. This applies to pensioners of special categories: Chernobyl victims, veterans, disability pensioners, etc. For each category, the amount of EDV will be different. Vladimir Putin reminded the government of the need for a unified procedure for indexing social benefits, and therefore on October 24, 2018, the Ministry of Finance adopted a corresponding resolution.
Indexation will take place on February 1, 2020, its size will be equal to the inflation rate for 2020. The budget initially projected inflation at 4.1%, and according to forecasts it fluctuates at 3%. According to international experts, the real level of inflation in Russia is much higher than stated and is about 7%, and the IMF believes that the economic crisis continues in Russia.
Increasing the minimum wage in 2020
The Labor Code (Article 133) establishes the minimum wage or minimum wage. From July 1, 2020, it is 7,800 rubles, which is 30% less than the subsistence level for able-bodied citizens. By government decree, a law was introduced to increase pensions in 2020, but so far it has not been adopted at the legislative level; the bill was only approved by the State Duma during the first reading.
An increase in the minimum wage will lead to an increase in other payments associated with it, because they will increase proportionally. If the law is adopted, the minimum wage in 2018 will be increased by a factor of 0.85 from the subsistence level, and then to one full monthly wage in 2020. Data on its value will be taken for the second quarter of 2020, that is, from January 1, presumably The minimum wage will be 9,489 rubles. This indicator affects not only the employee’s salary, but also the calculation of some social benefits and compensation:
Indexation coefficient
There is a specific tariff for employer insurance contributions - 22% of employee income. Next year this figure will not be indexed, just like the rates for social and health insurance. The general rate is now 30% and will not change until 2020. The indexation coefficient for other types was calculated taking into account the inflation rate and amounted to 3.7%.
Increase in state pensions due to indexation of social benefits
The state pension is received by all those people whose service was paid from the state treasury. We are talking not only about civil servants, but also dependents of the deceased and people with complete or partial loss of legal capacity. These payments are recalculated annually due to changes in food prices. In accordance with Federal Law 166-FZ, some state pension payments depend on social:
Indexation of pensions in 2020 for military personnel
Provision of all military pensioners, with the exception of conscripts, has its own specifics and is paid for by the Ministry of Defense. The size directly depends on the amount of monetary allowance in force for different categories of military personnel. In 2020, the pension was calculated based on 69.45% of the salary; since last year, the increase in military pensions in 2020 amounted to 72% of the salary, which made it possible to increase payments by 4%. At the same time, military personnel can also receive insurance pensions if they are entitled to them, but only without a fixed payment.
Increase in pensions from January 2020 in Moscow
Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin supported the proposal of the Veterans Council to increase the amount of monthly payments for Muscovites after reaching retirement age by three thousand rubles. This means that in 2018 the social standard will be at the level of 17,500 rubles. Almost 1.4 million pensioners will receive their bonuses. Positive changes will affect disabled children, whose monthly fees will be doubled. Disabled schoolchildren and their families will be paid 10 thousand rubles every year to purchase a school uniform.
For residents living less than 10 years in the capital
These residents will not be affected by indexation and their pensions will be smaller - about 11 thousand rubles. The increase will apply only to those Muscovites who have lived here for more than ten years. It should be noted that they are lucky, since they have a city social standard - that minimum level below which a pensioner cannot earn. If it is lower, then the municipal body charges a premium from the city budget.
For native Muscovites
For them, the minimum amount will be 17.5 thousand rubles, and retired people's artists will receive an additional allowance (increased pensions) - 30 thousand rubles/month. Sergei Sobyanin made this decision in connection with the improving economic situation in the city, where inflation is decreasing. Real GDP growth for 2020 was 1.6%. This will affect the interests of 1.4 million people, and 43 thousand of them will receive bonuses for the first time.
One-time additional payments in special cases
Participants in the defense of Moscow and war veterans can count on one-time payments (10 thousand rubles). Centenarians who celebrated their centenary will receive 15 thousand each. A one-time increase is also given to married couples who have been married for more than 50 years:
Veterans of the Great Patriotic War, labor and home front workers
Basic pensions for this category of the population will almost double. Heroes of the Soviet Union will be able to receive 9 thousand as a bonus every month, their widows - 7 thousand, and participants in the defense of Moscow - 8 thousand. Pensions for rehabilitated people, home front workers and labor veterans will be increased almost twofold. Sergei Sobyanin believes that, given rising prices, it is necessary to increase benefits for these categories of the population. The regional budget can cope with this task.

The payment of 10,000 rubles from the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation arrived in August: will there be a third payment of 10 thousand rubles in September? more
“Handouts corrupt”: Russians were quarreled over 10,000 rubles for children in August from Putin.
Should I expect payment in September? Some parents and politicians believe that “helicopter money” creates dependents.
And they oppose any payments. However, there is an opinion that by the single voting day on September 13, another benefit for children from 3 to 16 years old may be given. September has already arrived. And the payment of 10,000 rubles was not extended in August. Vladimir Putin made no statements, no orders came from the government or the Pension Fund. But the topic of benefits continues to worry Russians, dividing them into two camps - “beggars” and critics who believe that such payments “corrupt the people” and that “helicopter money” only strengthens dependent sentiments. The latter are confident that it will be difficult to cure those who are “addicted” to benefits and turn them towards work and independent survival.
Politicians added fuel to the fire of discord. A number of State Duma deputies and senators announced the need for August payments (in June and July, parents with children from 3 to 16 years old received 20,000 rubles for each child). Or even make a monthly allowance of 10,000. But they do not make a decision - this is the prerogative of the head of state.
At first, the parents, stunned by the unexpected amount of money they received, thanked the president for his support during the difficult “coronavirus” time. As soon as it became clear that there would be no money in August, angry reproaches and curses began to pour in against the “greedy government.” And there is something to be greedy about. The federal budget spent about 600 billion rubles on June and July payments. At the same time, enterprises did not operate for 4 months during the pandemic, the economy is in crisis, funding for all programs and expenses for officials and deputies is being reduced.
They express the idea that the authorities are waiting for a reason to announce the payment of 10,000 rubles for the third time. For example, before the single voting day on September 13. Elections at various levels will be held on this day in different regions. In Berdsk, for example, they will elect deputies to the legislative assembly of the Novosibirsk region. I don’t want to give unreasonable hope, but suddenly...
I would like to return to the petition that Novosibirsk resident Natalya Busarova compiled at the beginning of July. On behalf of all Russian mothers, she appealed to the President and the government with a request to issue 10,000 rubles in August for children aged 3 to 16 years to prepare for school. The petition is still “hanging” and continues to collect signatures. As of 3 p.m. on Thursday, September 3, about 272,250 people had signed it.
But it also has a signature, as in the comments to the publications “Courier. Wednesday. Berdsk" scold the authorities and each other. Russia is boiling.

I also had the second group, I didn’t receive anything, now they’ve removed me, but they won’t hire me anywhere after this illness. And how to live? Of course, if I knew that I would get sick, I would not have given birth to a third one, this was precisely the reason. But is my son guilty of this, and why shouldn’t I ask the state for help? When I worked, they plucked everything from me like everyone else. I have three sons - they will repay the debt to their homeland, so let the homeland really owe it to begin with, so that there is something to repay the debt for. I think there are more people in need in our country. And those who write all kinds of nonsense, that’s why everything happens in our country because of your stupid opinions...

Moreover, the average salary is 18 - 20 thousand rubles. And this parental salary cannot provide the child with a well-fed and decent life. A neighbor recently taught me how to live economically. Take the chicken, divide it into 4 parts and cook the soup from this chicken 4 times in a 5-liter pan and eat it with the whole family for a month, that is, each pan for 5-6 days. I have nothing against chicken soup, but, you know, I would like to live better! Having a higher education and 27 years of work experience and a salary of 20,000 rubles. + at the second job 3000 rubles. I wouldn’t mind a child benefit for a single mother in the amount of 6,000 rubles, as is paid in Moscow for single parents, but for some reason single parents in the Chelyabinsk region deserve benefits in the amount of only 614 rubles! If you listen to the critics, all girls from poor families should have their fallopian tubes tied in childhood. So how are you different from the fascists?

Now everything is completely different - people take out mortgages and pay 3 times more, many have minimum wages, rents are rising, prices are rising for everything. No one asked for a quarantine, and because of this, many people lost their jobs. If the state decided to quarantine everyone, then it must pay during the quarantine.

Amount of disability pension of group 1 in 2020
If we talk about the state of the human body from the point of view of its health, then the most serious is, of course, the first group of disabilities.
This category includes citizens with severe dysfunction of vital organs and body systems, due to which a person can no longer serve himself or take care of himself. Even in the most basic everyday matters, he cannot do without outside help.
The group is assigned to people who:
1)
are completely incapacitated and require constant care;
2)
have serious functional impairments, but are able to cope with simple work (usually at home);
3)
cannot walk independently;
4)
cannot navigate well in space and terrain;
5)
do not have the opportunity to fully communicate in a team;
6)
do not control their actions and are not responsible for the actions they commit.
Disability of the first group is given for the following medical reasons:
Regarding legal support
The provision of social benefits on the territory of the Russian Federation is fixed at the federal and regional levels. The first is the basic level of provision and assistance for people with disabilities. The second involves the possibility of expanding the list of benefits by municipal authorities.
A person with a disability must be aware of their benefits and must understand what benefits they are entitled to receive. If you consistently defend your own rights, you can save a lot of money and improve your standard of living.
The Federal Law of Russia provides that citizens with the first disability group can enjoy the following rights:
1)
exemption from property tax (some subjects of the federation provide a 50% discount on the tax amount);
2)
free use of social services;
3)
monthly receipt of benefits, which are regulated by current regulations.
The benefit is regularly subsidized and is influenced by the government's budgetary capacity; 4)
preferential transport throughout our country (that is, a one-time annual trip to places of health);
5)
benefits when using public transport;
6)
50% discount on transport tax, provided that the car has an engine power of less than 150 hp.
With.; 7)
free receipt of medicines or their monetary compensation from the state budget.
How has the financial condition of people with disabilities living in Russia changed recently? How much have payments increased for this category of the population? What is the size of the pension for 1st disability group in 2018? Is there provision for indexation of pensions for disabled people of group 1 in 2020? What does the pension of a disabled person of group 1 consist of? You will certainly learn about all this from this material.
Social pension
These payments were increased by 2.6% from April 1, the increase ranges from 100 to 250 rubles (depending on the disability group).
This was the increase in pensions for disabled people from April 1, 2020.
Pension for disabled children and disabled people of group 1 since childhood
These categories of people with disabilities learned from their own experience how much the pension will increase for disabled people of the first group. The amount of payments for this category of the population was increased to 13,170 rubles. The order came into force on April 1, 2020.
Compensation payment for caring for children with group 1 disabilities and for disabled people since childhood
From January 1 of this year, the amount of compensation payments to non-working parents who are raising disabled children under the age of eighteen or disabled children of the first group since childhood (regardless of age) will be (as before) 5.5 thousand (if we take into account the regional coefficient of 1 ,2, then you get 6,600 rubles, and if the coefficient is 1.3, then the amount comes out to 7,150 rubles). Previously, these payments consisted of 1,200 rubles.
Monthly cash payment for disabled people
The indexation of the EDV was on February 1, the increase was 5.8%.
The increase in daily allowance for people with the first disability group is 193.59 rubles.
Amount of social services
From April 1, its cost was 1,052.95 rubles. The increase in payment is 57.52 rubles, when compared with 2020.
What does the range of social services consist of?
- From sanatorium-resort treatment (RUB 125.46).
- From medical supplies (811 rubles).
- From free travel on a commuter train and on intercity transport to the place of treatment and back (RUB 116.47).
One-time payments in the amount of 5,000 rubles
From January 1, 2020, all disabled people (regardless of the group) had the opportunity to receive a one-time payment from the state in the amount of five thousand rubles. These funds are paid along with the pension; there is no need to write an application to receive them.

Increasing pensions for working pensioners from August 1, 2020
Due to the “freezing” of planned indexation of pensions for working pensioners from 2020, an increase for them is made only as a result of an annual recalculation in August. The government does not plan to further restore the process of indexation of payments to working citizens, as this will require additional costs of 250 billion rubles annually. Therefore, the August recalculation is now the only mechanism for increasing pension provision for this category of citizens.
Unlike standard indexations (an increase in payments by the same percentage for all citizens), the additional payment during recalculation is determined individually. The size of the increase depends on the number of contributions to the pension insurance system (PIS) that the employer paid for such an employee. Thus, increased payments are due to citizens who carry out official labor activities.
To receive an increase in pension, you do not need to apply to the Pension Fund, since all data on the citizen’s work activity is already available in their accounting system:
Data on employment is received by the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation from the employer in monthly reporting.
Information on the payment of pension insurance contributions from self-employed citizens comes from the tax office. If such a citizen ceases his activities, the Federal Tax Service will notify the Pension Fund that the pensioner is no longer working (accordingly, he goes into the category of non-working).
The August recalculation takes into account contributions that were paid to the compulsory pension system in the past year. This means that when calculating the increase in August 2020, contributions that were paid as a result of work in 2020 will be taken into account (if they were not taken into account earlier when assigning a pension).
How fathers and mothers can apply for pension recalculation
Elena Bibikova. Photo: Yuri Parshintsev / Parliamentary Newspaper
How much will Russians' pensions increase next year? Who has the right to apply for recalculation of payments? Elena Bibikova, a member of the Federation Council Committee on Social Policy, told the Parliamentary Newspaper about this.
— Elena Vasilyevna, along with the draft federal budget for 2018, the draft budget of the Pension Fund was also submitted to the State Duma. Based on its main provisions, what should our pensioners expect next year?
— The first thing I would like to draw your attention to. In 2020, the indexation of pensions for non-working pensioners to the inflation rate was carried out from February 1. After this, from April 1, payments were adjusted based on additional income of the Pension Fund. The growth of the Pension Fund's income this year continued. Taking this into account, the Government has made a proposal: in 2020, to index pensions once and a month earlier, that is, from January 1, and at a level exceeding the rate of inflation. If inflation this year is expected to be 3.2 percent, then it is proposed to index pensions by 3.7 percent.
It is planned to index monthly payments to federal beneficiaries by 3.2 percent from February 1. From April 1, social pensions will also increase by 4.1 percent - this is an increase in the cost of living for this year.
— Will the issue of indexing pensions for working pensioners be raised?
A thirteenth pension may appear in Russia
— I can’t help but ask about a problem that worries many pensioners—the possibility of receiving pension supplements for raising children. In recent months alone, the number of requests to the Pension Fund on this issue has increased significantly. How does the presence of children affect the pension rights of parents?
— The first thing I would like to note is that certain legal benefits when assigning pensions have been introduced for some large families. Thus, a woman who gave birth and raised five or more children before the age of eight is granted a pension five years earlier than the established period. In addition, mothers who raised a disabled child until the age of eight have the right to early retirement. Moreover, if the mother of a disabled child has reached the generally established retirement age and decided to switch from a preferential pension to a regular one, and his father has not yet reached retirement age, then in this case he receives the right to early retirement. Further. Those parents who are pensioners and have minor children are entitled to a pension supplement - one third of the fixed payment. This is about 1,600 rubles, and it is due to both mom and dad at the same time, regardless of whether they work or not. If a child, after reaching adulthood, studies full-time in state educational organizations, then the payment of this bonus continues either until graduation or until the child reaches the age of 23 years. If there are several minor children in a pensioner’s family, then the same allowance will be accrued for the second and third child.
The second very important point. We know that the time spent caring for a child before he turns 1.5 years old is included in the length of service for assigning an insurance pension. Moreover, from January 2020, points are awarded for the time of child care - 1.8 points per year for one child, 3.6 points for the second child, 5.4 for the third and fourth child. Thus, if a mother, for example, has four children, then when calculating her pension, 26 points can be accrued only for child care. And this, naturally, affects the size of the pension.
— Does it make sense for all pensioners who raised children to apply for recalculation?
Russian pensioner yesterday, today, tomorrow
— What documents need to be presented to the territorial office of the Pension Fund?
— Original birth certificates of the children, a statement from the mother asking her to recalculate the amount of her pension, and a statement from the father confirming that he himself does not apply for this recalculation. The fact is that there are cases when the recalculation is done not for the mother - it is not profitable for her, since she had a high salary, but for the child’s father.
— How quickly is this recalculation made?
— Recalculation is made from the month following the month of circulation. That is, if a person applied to the Pension Fund in October, then from November, if his pension is indeed subject to recalculation, it will be paid in the new amount.
www.pnp.ru
Is it possible for a working pensioner to achieve a full recalculation of his pension?
Working pensioners receive a recalculation of their pensions, taking into account all those indexations that have passed by, immediately after leaving work.
In practice it looks like this. If a pensioner resigns in July 2018, he will be entitled to an increased pension starting in August. But due to certain features of companies’ accounting reports to the Pension Fund and the work of the pension fund itself, the increase itself will occur only in the third month after dismissal. In our example, the pensioner will receive in October an increased pension for October and the difference between the old and new pension amounts for August and September.
The Pension Fund quite officially explains that in the case when a pensioner returns to work, having received a recalculation of his pension, no one will take away the increase from him.
He will receive an increased pension and salary. True, the next indexation of the pensioner will not be affected again.
Including, no one is stopping a pensioner from getting a job with the same employer in the same workplace. Therefore, if there is such an opportunity to quit and return to work, and there is also a sense in such a step (for several months you will have to sit without a salary, on one pension, and the question is whether increasing your pension is worth it), a working pensioner can take advantage of it for an additional increase .
Indexation of pensions in 2020: who will receive what increase and what?
Pensions will increase three times, but once each for different categories of pensioners: in January, April and August. For the most part, everything is as usual, but in 2020 there were some changes in the rules for indexing pensions. Read more about them in our material.
JANUARY. NON-WORKING PENSIONERS
The increase for this category will take place on January 1. The government decided to move the indexation date forward a month - before this, the increase was accrued from February 1. By law, pensions grow at the level of last year's price increase. Therefore, the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation usually waited for Rosstat to finally calculate inflation. And only after that they began to distribute pensions. In 2020 the increase will be faster.
— It was decided to index pensions by 3.7% from January 1, 2020. Do this earlier in order to ensure a more significant increase in real pensions next year,” Minister of Labor and Social Protection Maxim Topilin .
The government initially planned an increase of about 4% next year. This was the forecast for current inflation. But the reality turned out to be much more positive. Now, according to fresh data from Rosstat, over the past year (since last September) prices have increased by only 3%. Therefore, the Cabinet of Ministers decided not to wait for official figures and immediately budget an increase of 3.7%. In any case, it will be higher than real inflation.
Let us remind you that this year the average old-age insurance pension is 13,657 rubles. Taking into account indexation, in a year it will increase to 14,045 rubles. That is, the average increase will be about 400 rubles.
APRIL. SOCIAL PENSIONERS
More than 4 million people receive a social pension in Russia. As a rule, these are disabled people, war veterans, children left without a breadwinner in the family and other beneficiaries, as well as those who have not earned the required length of service. Now the average social pension is 8,742 rubles. From April 1, 2020 it will increase by 4.1%.
For comparison, the average annual social pension for disabled children and group I disabled children since childhood is 13,241 rubles. But there are also those who receive only 5 - 6 thousand rubles. As explained in the Pension Fund of Russia, all pensioners (both social and insurance) whose income is below the subsistence level of a pensioner (PMP) in the region of residence are entitled to social supplements. They increase the benefit amount to the PMP level.
AUGUST. WORKING PENSIONERS
In total there are 43 million pensioners in Russia. Of these, approximately a third (14 million people) are employed. Pension indexation does not apply to them. Several years ago (after another reform) it was canceled. Working pensioners were given only an increase due to an increase in length of service.
“We haven’t changed the conditions, the moratorium has been maintained,” Maxim Topilin .
Companies continue to pay insurance premiums for working pensioners. According to the new rules, they are transformed into pension points. One point in 2020 is valued at 78.58 rubles, and next year it will be 81.49 rubles. And the higher the salary, the more points you can earn. But there is a ceiling: the maximum increase in 2018 can be up to three pension points, that is, about 245 rubles, the Pension Fund specified.
For working pensioners, other incentives have appeared - for example, you can postpone retirement voluntarily (or suspend receiving a pension) and then receive an increasing coefficient (the formula is on the Pension Fund website). But very few have taken advantage of this so far.
SP – News Balti Moldova
The government increased the size of one-time payments to pensioners from 700 to 900 lei. The project must be approved by parliament, which resumes work this week. This was announced by the head of the Cabinet of Ministers, Ion Chicu, after a morning meeting with President Igor Dodon and Speaker Zinaida Greceanii.
Instead of monthly indexation, a lump sum payment
Ion Chicu said that on September 3, the government decided to increase one-time benefits for pensioners who receive no more than 3 thousand lei by 200 lei. According to the prime minister, thus, from October 1, indexation will actually be not 1% , as previously assumed, but more than 3% .
“This difference of 200 lei for each of the 660 thousand recipients of such a payment will mean an effective indexation of pensions from October 1 by more than 3%, if taken together with the 1.07% provided by law at the beginning of the year. That is, 660 thousand categories of citizens with the lowest incomes will receive additionally this more than 3% indexation of pensions in October, and not within six months until April,” the head of the Cabinet explained.
13th pension in the pre-election year
Ion Chicu noted that after the government’s decision to increase the benefit from 700 lei to 900 lei, speculation began in the media that pensions would be indexed by only 1% in October. In his opinion, this is done mainly by those who “in previous years did not particularly strive to index pensions.”
“I would like to remind you that on April 1, the indexation of pensions amounted to more than 4.8% . Now, according to the law, indexation will be 1.07% . In general this is about 6% . Plus, in 2020, pensioners and recipients of social payments with an income of less than 3 thousand lei will receive 1,600 lei of financial assistance: 700 in January and 900 in October. If we assume that the average pension of those who have it below 3 thousand lei is less than 1,500 lei, these 700 and 900 lei will amount to an additional monthly pension,” the prime minister said.
Let us remind you that at the beginning of this year, pensioners whose pensions did not exceed 2,000 lei received financial assistance for the winter holidays in the amount of 700 lei The decision about this was made at the end of 2020. At the same time it was stated that this payment would be made once a year. However, in July, the government decided to allocate another 700 lei to pensioners with low incomes. Moreover, it was announced that pensioners, as well as recipients of social benefits whose pension amount does not exceed 3,000 lei . Now Chicu has announced his desire to increase the size of payments to 900 lei.
According to the Prime Minister, the effective indexation of pensions in 2020 is almost 10%, taking into account the two stages of indexation (in April and October) and the additional 200 lei offered by the government.
Ion Chicu also said that the government will consider the possibility of providing additional assistance to those with incomes below 3 thousand lei, if Moldova manages to receive a Russian loan.
Presidential elections in Moldova are scheduled for November 1.

Should working pensioners expect a return to indexation?
Almost certainly not worth it. What is happening in Russia in 2018 should make it clear to Russians that times have finally changed.
In those years when the state earned huge amounts of money from selling natural resources abroad, it could more or less adequately provide for ordinary people, including pensioners. Pensions increased, the country's economy grew. There was enough money not only for oligarchs close to power, but also for ordinary people.
Now times are completely different. The state, through its policies, brought the country under sanctions; the economy was never seriously reformed to modern conditions. While high-tech giants became the largest companies all over the world, in Russia they relied on the oil and gas industry in the old fashioned way.
This policy has led to the fact that there is little money in the country, and first of all it is provided by oligarchs close to the authorities. There is no money left for ordinary people, so the budget is saved on the largest social expenses - pensions. Starting next year, it is planned to raise the retirement age. Due to this, current pensioners will supposedly receive a significant increase of a thousand rubles per month each, but the state will take back even more by increasing the VAT tax.
It is at least naive to expect that working pensioners will receive an increase on an equal basis with non-working ones. Officially, the freeze on pensions for working pensioners has been extended until 2020; nothing prevents it from being extended beyond this period for as long as desired.
