What affects the size of pension payments?
The state is faced with the task of creating a balance between the revenue and expenditure side of the Pension Fund (PFR) budget. Taking into account this task, standards and rules for calculating subsidies to pensioners are being developed. The legislator proceeds from the following circumstances:
- The level of living of socially vulnerable people is influenced by the economic development of the region. It is taken into account in determining the cost of the consumer basket.
- The pensions of many recipients do not reach the subsistence level (ML). And this creates conditions for the potential impoverishment of a large number of citizens.
- The state must implement an economic strategy in which the budget will have enough funds to finance the social program.
To achieve these goals, monitoring of important indicators affecting pension accruals is carried out. Data for the Ryazan region as of 2021 are shown in the table:
Composition of the pension amount
The amount of accrual depends on the type of payments and the applicant’s participation in work activities. It is calculated based on the established formula. Residents of the Ryazan region can apply for the following types of pension benefits in 2018-2019:
- insurance;
- social;
- state;
- military
Attention: pension savings remain frozen. Federal authorities announced a change in the procedure for investing employers' funds in savings.
Monthly social benefits for disabled citizens are calculated using a special formula. It involves the compilation of a final value from several separate parts. They are:
- Fixed . This is a guarantee of citizens' income from the state. Its size is established by law and is indexed annually.
- Insurance is calculated individually. Its value is influenced by the following indicators: length of official employment; https://lgoty-vsem.ru/pensiya/oformlenie/trudovoj-stazh-dlya-vyhoda-na-pensiyu.html
- total contribution to the budget, converted into points.

Pensioners about a living wage of 8,466 rubles: “This is all so that the extra people die out”
The authorities have established a living wage for residents of Chuvashia. In addition, social pension recipients will be indexed by several percent from April this year.
From April 1, Russia will index social pensions by 3.4%. The average size of such payment will be about 10,183 rubles. For citizens whose social pension is less than the subsistence level, there is an additional payment that will be increased.
Living wage in Chuvashia:
- Per capita - 9,804 rubles.
- For the working population - 10,414 rubles.
- For pensioners - 8,466 rubles.
- For children - 9,883 rubles.
On March 11, a “Pro City” correspondent conducted a survey of Novocheboksary residents on the topic of pensions. The townspeople shared how much they received, whether they had enough money, and where most of it went. They also asked pensioners whether 8,466 rubles a month would be enough for them.
“No, it’s not enough, for our bosses this is for one day, but a pensioner needs to live on this for 30 days. I have been a leader and teacher all my life, but I earn 12,500 rubles. We have to save money. Thank God, my children live with me, and they support me, we have a common budget with them. I don’t count how much is spent on groceries, my daughter and son-in-law are paying off bills, and my pension is spent on my treatment. The grandchildren are growing up, there’s not even anything to congratulate. Many pensioners live the same way, barely getting by,” says Alevtina Petrova.
“Those who don’t have enough have high utility bills. Many old people stayed in large apartments, and in the end they paid about 7,000-8,000 rubles. Just imagine, you’ll pay for this out of 8,466 rubles, well, that’s all. And my pension is 15,000 rubles and another 1,200 rubles are veterans’. I have enough, I have enough for everything. I live like in a fairy tale. I have, how to say, balance, my daughter helps me, and I help my son,” said Tatyana Sviridova.
“Let them try to live like this themselves. We also want to eat, we want to dress, half of our pension will be spent on medicine, the rent is crazy. I don’t know how anyone can live on 8,000 rubles, so let them try to live. Let them give up their 500,000 rubles a month. My labor pension is 13,400 rubles, and my disability pension is 1,900 rubles. 6,000 rubles are spent on utilities. Everything goes towards extinction, so that the extra people die out. Slow extinction, so that there are no pensioners,” says Svetlana Ivanova.
“We have a common budget with our daughter, it’s enough for us. I have a labor pension, I am a Labor Veteran, my pension is 25,000 rubles. For those who receive 12,000 rubles, what can I say, apparently they don’t eat meat so often, and they need to drink less. The minimum should be 16,000 rubles for pensioners to receive. Regarding the social pension of 10,183 rubles, is this for those who did not work and are sitting here on the boulevard? You don’t even need to give them a ruble; they’d rather beg on the boulevard for beer than work. Most of us receive labor pensions, so they should increase it,” says Lyudmila Ivanova.
“We have to work and earn our pension. You don’t need to rely on anyone, everyone should rely on themselves, and not on someone else. The state is not a cash cow, they also need to protect us, that’s all,” said Galina Petrova.
“Naturally, that kind of money is not enough. When the rent for an apartment is about 5,000 rubles, and only 3,000 rubles are left for soap and a toothbrush. I am over 80 years old and have a working pension. My daughter pays for housing and communal services; my daughter and son-in-law also buy food for me. I can’t say that I have a small pension, but if I paid for housing and communal services and food myself, I wouldn’t have enough money. About social pensions, I can’t say why they have so little, but I don’t know how they should live,” says Antonina Ivanova.
