In 2021, pensions increased again, thanks to an increase in all social benefits. benefits. The necessity of increasing social standards is associated with ruble inflation and the active increase in prices for goods and services. However, you should not count on a large-scale increase. The changes will not exceed 2.9 percent, but this is enough to cover inflationary growth.
Such decisions will affect a large number of pensioners, including people who have the second group of disabilities. Starting in the fall of 2019, you can expect an increase of 250 rubles, due to which the average size will be about 9,200 rubles.
Such an allowance includes various criteria. These include the level of the standard pension, insurance (work) length of service, as well as the type of pension, etc.
Russian citizens can also have social security. pensions. They are provided to people for various reasons: disability, having dependents who are unable to work, etc. For such categories of people, a smaller increase has been announced - about 220 rubles. All this can be attributed to the fact that for such people the initial pension amount is at a lower level, and the recipients make up a huge number of citizens.
The increase will also affect citizens who have served their homeland.
How is a pension assigned to disabled people of the second group?
There are two categories of benefits for citizens with disabilities of the second group:
- Social. It is assigned only for a certain period of time and not on a permanent basis.
- Labor. Assigned when there is a specific working guard.
In 2021, the pension level for such people has been slightly increased. In this case, the formation of this size will be influenced by:
- During what period did the person receive the disability group? Was it assigned since childhood or received during working life? This is the main factor.
- How many (if any) dependents are there in care?
- What type of benefit does a person receive (social or labor) With all these factors combined, it is possible to make several calculations for 2021. Payments to people who received disability at an early age will amount to about ten thousand rubles. While citizens who received disability status at a later age, the pension can amount to about five thousand rubles. However, it is always worth remembering that if a person has work experience, he can contact the Pension Fund branch and ask for a standard disability pension. Here it is worth considering that they will be much higher and depend on the years that the person actually worked. This also includes payments transferred by the employer.
How much will pensions for disabled people of group 2 increase in 2021?
The social disability pension in 2021 will be indexed from April 1. The annual spring increase in payments is provided for by Article 25 of Law No. 166-FZ. The indexation coefficient is determined by the Cabinet of Ministers based on last year’s inflation level. To date, the corresponding resolution has not yet been adopted; its publication will take place only in March. Social pensions, including disability pensions, will increase by 2.4%.
Social disability pensions will practically not increase. Group 2 disabled people will receive approximately 5,304.57 rubles from April 1, 2021, i.e. payments will be increased by 123.44 rubles. However, these are only estimated figures; the exact amount of payments will become known in March of this year, when the government officially sets the payment indexation coefficient.
Additional payments to pensions
Everyone’s pension is formed not only due to personal contributions, but also thanks to contributions from the Fund. So what payments should people with the second group of disability expect?
It is worth highlighting three components of the pension of people in this category:
- A standard level that is established at the state level. This includes labor or social services. pay.
- An increase at the federal level, which is assigned to citizens of certain categories. Such allowances can be established for a certain period, for example, 2 years, or be completely permanent. For example, this could include an increase for disabled people of the second group who participated in hostilities, or those who were able to reach eighty years of age, and so on.
- Increase at the regional level. It is also established for citizens of certain categories. This includes disabled people in the Far North, teachers, and so on. Here you should be especially careful, since everything is extremely individual.
How is pension calculated for disabled people of group 2?
Any pension payments are calculated after an application is submitted to the pension fund at the place of residence. After submitting the application, you also need to collect a package of documents and additional certificates in the prescribed manner according to the established list of documents.
Next, according to your disability group, the size of the pension will be calculated, which will also take into account additional criteria, such as total length of service and the number of dependents under guardianship.
EDV for disabled people of group 2
Speaking about assistance to citizens with disabilities, it can be noted that since the mid-2000s there has been such a thing as EDV. It is also a monthly cash payment that is due to some citizens.
For example, for disabled people of the second group, treatment in sanatoriums, completely free travel on public transport, and so on are expected. However, it is worth remembering that a person who has such rights can refuse these services. If he decides to do this, then he should contact the social authorities. protection. And in return for these benefits, he will receive a regular increase in his pension.
In those social authorities protection, you can find out if you are included in the list of persons who are entitled to such payments. This bonus is paid immediately along with the pension itself by this body. For example, if the Pension Fund is engaged in paying the basic pension, then it is obliged to pay EDV.
Such payments are regularly indexed. The amount of such an allowance for disabled citizens of the second group is approximately 2,590 rubles.
Consequently, again thanks to calculations, it is easy to calculate that the standard pension for citizens with a second group disability will be about 7,770 rubles.
Assignment of pension payments to disabled people of group 2
Group 2 disability is characterized by serious impairments in the functioning of the body, which do not allow one to fully care for oneself and work fully. People with this category are not allowed to work, but they can be employed if the enterprise has specialized equipment. In the first case, citizens are entitled to a disability pension due to incapacity, which is issued according to the following algorithm.
- Receive a referral to undergo a medical and social examination, which is issued by the territorial health authorities.
- Collect a package of documents consisting of:
- national passport;
- application form filled out;
- SNILS;
- referrals for examination;
- outpatient card;
- papers confirming disability in childhood (if available);
- documents establishing the fact of an injury at work (if the defects were the result of work in a dangerous enterprise).
- Pass a medical examination and receive a conclusion indicating the disability group.
- Contact the territorial office of the Pension Fund to assign payments.
Pension for disabled people is divided into 2 types:
- labor – calculated on the basis of the employer’s insurance contributions for an employee who has become disabled; paid if you have at least one day of work experience;
- social – issued to people with disabilities who have never worked before.
You cannot teach 2 types of content at once. You only need to select one of the options provided.
Social benefits are accrued for the duration of the ITU certificate. If it is issued for an indefinite period, then payments are assigned indefinitely. If it is necessary to go through the commission again every year and confirm the status of disabled person, then you will also need to confirm the grounds for the pension.
What benefits can a disabled person of the second group count on?
Citizens with disabilities have the right to additional social security from the government. Accordingly, new types of allowances and social benefits are regularly designed at the federal and regional levels. help. Therefore, a pension is not the only type of assistance that can be used.
What else can you rely on:
- Every year you have the right to free treatment or, what many prefer, prevention in the state. sanatoriums. This type of assistance is very popular and widespread. To do this, you need to request a referral from your doctor every year.
- You can regularly count on absolutely free travel on suburban or intercity routes.
- You can expect treatment in local or federal hospitals. In addition, you can receive some medications absolutely free. These are the most necessary elements that a person with a second group disability can count on. Moreover, it is worth asking local government offices about assistance programs operating in this region. Due to this, the list of benefits may expand.
To summarize, we can say that the amount of pensions of citizens with disabilities of the second group increased by 2.9 percent. Although this value does not change the situation dramatically, there are still small improvements.

At the same time, the length of length of service, work or dismissal from it due to disability, as well as the time when the citizen became disabled (before or during employment or after dismissal) does not matter for the processing of labor payments.
Indexation of pension benefits is carried out annually in accordance with inflationary growth. For the current year, changes could be up to 7%, since the president decided that indexation should be higher than inflation. Therefore, the average level of old-age insurance payments for disabled people should increase.
A pension benefit of this type has a fixed/basic part, which is due to all recipients. An additional payment in the form of points multiplied by a coefficient is added to the base amount.

From 02/01/2019, the amount of NSS will also be indexed by 4.3%, and its value will be 1121.42 rubles .
