Indexation of Labor Pensions in 2021 Latest News

Indexation of pensions: to whom and by how much will payments be increased in 2021

If a pensioner receiving an insurance pension is fired, he will receive additional payment from the first day of the next month after dismissal. Also, the pensioner has the right to count on payments from the employer, compensating for vacation that was not used, and benefits for dismissal due to the liquidation of the organization.

Previously, the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation gave an example explaining how, after dismissal, the payment of the full pension amount will be implemented. If a pensioner quit his job in March, in April the Pension Fund will receive reports from the employer indicating that the pensioner is still listed as working. In May, the Pension Fund will receive reports in which the pensioner is no longer listed as working. In June, he will decide to resume indexation, and only in July will the pensioner receive the full pension amount, as well as the monetary difference between the previous and new pension amounts for the previous three months - April, May, June. That is, the pensioner will begin to receive the full pension the same three months after dismissal, but these three months will be compensated to him.

The date of entry into force of the amendments and the amount of the premium depend on the category of payments:

This difference in terms is due to the fact that each type of pension is tied to some other accruals . For example, the monthly allowance for former military personnel depends on the amount of payments to current employees, and the latter is raised only in October.

The social pension is accrued in parallel with the bonus. But in this case, the shift to April is only official - in fact, the money will be issued in January. However, the specified percentage is not the final point for recalculation.

The main type of benefit is insurance pensions , which are divided into 3 large categories: old age, loss of a breadwinner and disability. In the first case, all recipients are guaranteed the same bonus – 145.76 rubles. (i.e. a rise from 5606.17 to 5751.93 rubles). In the other two, the total amount will fluctuate, because... they are divided into smaller types:

The growth of the pension is determined by changing its two components - the fixed payment and the value of the pension point. In 2021 The following increases are expected:

Pension indexation on April 1, 2021: who will receive increased payments and by how much?

Traditionally, the April wave of revisions in the amount of payments concerns older Russians who receive an insurance type of pension. This option is prescribed in one of the following cases:

• insufficient amount of officially collected experience;
• lack of pension points.

After spring indexation, the amount will rise by 2.6%. This value was not chosen by chance, since it is based on the forecast growth rate for the minimum cost of living for pensioners. For calculations, the last reporting calendar period preceding the year in which indexation is carried out is always taken.

The Pension Fund emphasized that the features of indexation are spelled out in the new standards of the Russian Constitution. There is also an emphasis on the need to recalculate all types of social charges.

The circumstances for the early retirement of some women remain unchanged. We are talking about mothers of many children.

Only those Russian women who have given birth and raised at least 3 children can count on indulgence from the state. In this situation, you can apply for a pension at the age of 55, but only if you managed to collect at least 15 years of officially recorded work experience.

The same scheme applies to women who gave birth and raised 4 children under the age of 8 years. In this case, a mother with many children can retire 4 years earlier than the generally accepted standard. If you have 5 or more children, you can get a pension pass from the age of 50.

The cost of living for a pensioner at the federal level is projected to be:

• for 2021 - 10,022 rubles;
• for 2022 - 10,115 rubles;
• for 2023 - 10,818 rubles.

This means that minimum pensions throughout Russia should not be less than these values.

The average pension (of all types) in Russia will be:

• in 2021 - 16,209.32 rubles;
• in 2022 - 16,982.16 rubles;
• in 2023 - 17,736.22 rubles.

The average size of the old-age insurance pension for non-working pensioners will be:

• in 2021 - 17,443.40 rubles;
• in 2022 - 18,368.54 rubles;
• in 2023 - 19,294.07 rubles.

The Federation Council announced the size of pension indexation in 2021

Despite the fact that the spread of COVID-19 has hit the financial situation of Russians hard, this year only narrow categories of people will receive additional payments due to the pandemic. And most retirees are not one of them.

The exception is doctors who continue to work even after retiring. But at the same time, their work must involve direct contact with coronavirus patients.

Those pensioners who are guardians of young children from 0 to 7 years inclusive can count on payments related to the COVID-19 pandemic. In 2021, they are paid if the child is under 8 years old before March 31, 2021.

Every year, funds are allocated to the Pension Fund budget to increase payments and provide benefits to pensioners. Thus, for those who have completed their working career, indexation of the insurance part is provided. The question of how much percent it will grow remained acute until the end of the year. Initially, it was planned to increase by the amount of official inflation, which, according to preliminary calculations, ranged from 3.7 to 4.9%.

However, the Government of the Russian Federation decided to use an index that is ahead of inflation. Thus, the insurance pension already increased by 6.3% in January. The basic part today is 6044 rubles.

From April 1, an increase will also be provided for those who receive a social pension. True, in this case the growth will not be so noticeable - only 2.6%. The military will receive an increase only from October 1. It will be 3.7%.

Since the beginning of the year, the procedure for calculating the minimum pension has changed. Despite statements from the Government and the Pension Fund that this will ultimately lead to growth, the Accounts Chamber has voiced its doubts about this.

In principle, the concept of a minimum pension in Russia, as such, does not exist. Its calculation is based on the living wage of a pensioner (PMP), which has its own indicators in each individual region.

If a pensioner’s income is lower than the PMP established in the subject of the Federation, he is entitled to an additional payment. At the same time, there is a nuance - if this indicator at the regional level is higher than the federal one, then the additional payment comes from the local budget. Otherwise, compensation is assigned from the federal treasury.

Based on these standards, the leadership of some regions deliberately underestimated PMP indicators in order to save the budget. Even despite the law adopted in 2021 obliging annual indexation of minimum pensions, the situation has not changed.

Pension indexation is an increase in the amount of pension payments in accordance with the law. Produced annually to compensate older people for income losses caused by rising prices for consumer goods and services. In other words, indexation is a tool that protects pensions from depreciation. Every year, the state adds a percentage to older people that should cover the rate of inflation.

From January 1, 2020, monthly payments to non-working people of retirement age were indexed by 6.6%. The average amount in Russia increased by approximately one thousand rubles. The increase was different for everyone. For example, if the old-age pension was assigned more than the amounts necessary to provide oneself with everything necessary, then 6.6% is added to the previously established indicators. If a person received less than the subsistence minimum, then 6.6% is added to the old-age pension plus last year’s additional payment to the minimum. Working pensioners have not received such an increase since January 11.

On August 1, 2020, there was another increase in pensions, but it did not affect everyone.
According to the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation, the average size of the funded portion is 956 rubles. The increase was 9.13%. Because of this, the average amount increased to 1,043 rubles. This change affected about 80 thousand people. Starting from the same date, participants in the co-financing program will receive an increase. For them, the changes occurred by 7.99%. Indexation procedure in 2021

The changes will also affect the fixed part of the pension. If in 2019 it was 5334 rubles, then in 2021 it is 5686.25 rubles .

The rules adopted since the beginning of 2021 apply only to those citizens of retirement age who are already unemployed and live on money paid by the state. They also apply to those who earn extra money by tutoring, renting out an apartment, selling vegetables from their garden, and in some other situations.

Insurance pensions in January for non-working pensioners increased according to the new calculation of the indexation of the cost of living established in 2021. It provides an increase in payments even in the presence of social supplements. Indexation of 6.6% affected 32 million unemployed people.

Working pensioners will have new payments from August 1, 2021. If a person continues to perform professional duties, insurance premiums are deducted from his income. The pension will be regularly revised upward, taking into account newly received funds.

The size of the increase is determined individually, taking into account the savings for the previous year of the IPC, which were not taken into account earlier in the calculations. This means that in 2021 citizens will receive an increase for the length of service accumulated in 2021. It is planned that payments will begin to rise at a faster pace. This is due to the pension reform carried out.

The Ministry of Labor announced the expected increase in pensions until 2020. The insurance payment is planned to increase by 6.3%. Thanks to this, the average annual benefit will reach 17,432 rubles. In 2022, it is expected that pensions will increase by 5.9%, and in 2023 – by 5.6%.

The planned indexation amount exceeds expected inflation. If the latter is too large, the increase will be adjusted upward. The increase will also affect social pensions, but this will not happen before April 1. The project does not provide for changes in the amount of the funded part of the pension, so there will be no changes in this area.

Who will have their pensions increased in 2021 and when?

In total, there are several types of pensions in Russia:

• insurance - they are received by those who have enough insurance experience and pension points to retire, and disabled people receive insurance pensions if they have at least one day of experience;
• social - they are paid to those who did not accumulate enough experience and points to qualify for an insurance pension, and were forced to retire 5 years later;
• state - they are received by certain categories of pensioners who have served the state;
• military - they are received by former law enforcement officers who have sufficient length of service for this.

For each category of pensioners, payments increase at different times:

• From January 1, only insurance pensions for non-working pensioners will be indexed. There are most of them in Russia, but not all.

• Those who receive a social pension will see an increase later - only from April 1, their payments will increase by only 2.6%. True, such pensioners have the right to a social supplement to their pension, so in fact the increase will be from January 1 - and from April only the structure of the payment will change, but not its amount.

• The same applies to state pensions - their indexation by 2.6% is planned for April 1, 2021.

• And military pensioners will have to wait even longer - their pensions are tied to the amount of pay for military personnel, which increases once a year from October 1. According to preliminary calculations by the Ministry of Economic Development, the increase from October 1, 2021 will be 3.7%. The ratio of military pensions to the salary of military personnel does not change; as before, it will depend on length of service and a reduction factor of 0.7368.

• There is another category of payments that will increase in 2021 - monthly cash payments (MCB) for federal beneficiaries. They increase each year by a certain factor from February 1st.

It is expected that the EDV and the cost of a set of social services will increase by 4.9% from February 1, 2021.

The draft resolution of the Government of Russia dated January 15, 2021 proposes to establish an indexation coefficient for payments, benefits and compensation provided for in the list in the amount of 1.049 from February 1, 2021. The indexation coefficient was determined based on the consumer price index for 2021, equal to 104.9 percent

What payments can working pensioners expect in 2021?

Many working pensioners are interested in whether their pensions will be indexed in the coming year.

Working pensioners will not be affected by indexation starting from January 1. But they have the right to count on an annual recalculation, which will take place in August 2021. They will take into the calculation base the pension coefficients earned over the past year, but there will be a limit on their number. Up to 3 IPCs are allowed. Translated into rubles, the benefit will increase by 261.72 rubles.

But there is a lot of talk about restoring the indexation of insurance payments. Officials have not yet directly answered the question; according to preliminary data, the freeze will last until 2021. But according to the head of the Pension Fund Anton Drozdov, to restore indexation and pension supplements for working pensioners, a budget of 368 billion will be needed, and so far there is no such amount. Based on this, we can conclude that the moratorium will be extended.

Indexation of pensions in 2021 is relevant only for non-working pensioners. Citizens who continue to work until they receive an increase. Such suspension for them will last for an unknown period. The cost of the pension coefficient will be 98.86 rubles. in 2021. Every year the inflation rate decreases, so the government aims to raise the average provision to 20,000 rubles. by 2024

Resumption of indexation of pensions for working pensioners is possible subject to budgetary security. Pensioners deserve it, Putin said.

“The condition is simple - budgetary security,” the president said. “Of course we think about it, and retirees deserve it,” he added.

The President recalled that in the USSR, working pensioners did not receive a pension at all. “In today’s conditions, especially when it comes to the situation with coronavirus, with falling incomes, indexation is extremely important. There are certain subtle elements, shortcomings of some components of the contributed security when determining the final result for pensioners. This absolutely needs to be dealt with. I would, of course, think about certain categories of our pensioners who need our additional support from the state. This is not such a big income. People work in jobs that others don't want. In principle, the state itself is interested in pensioners taking these places,” Putin added.

Pensions of working pensioners have not been indexed since January 1, 2016. This decision was made in connection with the need to reduce the deficit of the Russian Pension Fund.

In November, the Federation of Independent Trade Unions of Russia appealed to Putin due to the lack of decisions on the resumption of indexation of pensions for working pensioners. As stated in the FNPR letter signed by its chairman Mikhail Shmakov, the Ministry of Labor is still not preparing changes to the legislation.

In 2021, for working pensioners receiving an insurance pension, there will still be a moratorium on indexation and therefore the 6.3% increase in pensions approved for January 1, 2021 will not affect them.

However, for this category of citizens, an annual recalculation of pensions for length of service is provided, which is automatically carried out by the Pension Fund in August.

• During this recalculation, the pension amount is recalculated taking into account the additional pension points that the pensioner earned during the previous year . Accordingly, in August 2021, working pensioners will take into account the points they earned during 2021 in the amount of their pension payment.
• The amount of the August increase is determined as the value of the points accumulated by the pensioner, but not more than three. In this case, the value of the pension point is taken according to the standard established by law on the date of registration of the pension. Taking into account these conditions, the amount of additional payment in August 2021 will be no more than 279 rubles .

Also, in 2021, those working pensioners who decide to quit their jobs will receive an increase. A recalculation will be carried out for them, taking into account the indexations they missed during the time they worked. The increase will be assigned from the 1st day of the month following dismissal, but taking into account the recalculation deadlines established by law, it will arrive a little later - 3-4 months after dismissal, but with compensation for these months of delay.

To count on an increase in pension in 2021, you must have the status of a non-working pensioner or quit at the time of indexation, as indicated above. After the recalculation takes place, citizens will be able to continue working.

In addition, the revision of benefits will not affect persons paying insurance premiums, for example, those working on the basis of a civil labor contract. The situation is similar with all citizens who are registered as individual entrepreneurs.

There have been cases when managers of non-profit organizations, such as SNT, garage cooperatives, as well as members of the boards of such structures, were deprived of bonuses. Controversial situations arose due to the fact that special reports on length of service were submitted to the Pension Fund for such citizens, on the basis of which the department recognized them as officially employed and refused to increase payments. Therefore, the listed nuances must be taken into account and the necessary measures must be taken in advance to get indexed.

Insurance pensions of non-working pensioners are planned to be indexed by 6.3% in 2021, by 5.9% in 2022, and by 5.6% in 2023, according to the draft budget of the Pension Fund of Russia (PFR) for 2021 and the planning period 2022 -2023.

• 6.3% in 2021 in 2022 – 5.9%; in 2023 – 5.6%.
• According to the draft budget of the Pension Fund of Russia, the average pension in 2021 will be 17,432 rubles, in 2022 – 18,357 rubles, in 2023 – 19,283 rubles.

From January 1, 2021, insurance pensions of non-working pensioners were indexed by 6.6%.

What will be the indexation of pensions in 2021: for some 1000 rubles, for others nothing

To count on an increase in pension in 2021, you must have the status of a non-working pensioner or quit at the time of indexation, as indicated above. After the recalculation takes place, citizens will be able to continue working.

In addition, the revision of benefits will not affect persons paying insurance premiums, for example, those working on the basis of a civil labor contract. The situation is similar with all citizens who are registered as individual entrepreneurs.

Insurance pensions of non-working pensioners are planned to be indexed by 6.3% in 2021, by 5.9% in 2022, and by 5.6% in 2023, according to the draft budget of the Pension Fund of Russia (PFR) for 2021 and the planning period 2022 -2023.

• 6.3% in 2021 in 2022 – 5.9%; in 2023 – 5.6%.
• According to the draft budget of the Pension Fund of Russia, the average pension in 2021 will be 17,432 rubles, in 2022 – 18,357 rubles, in 2023 – 19,283 rubles.

From January 1, 2021, insurance pensions of non-working pensioners were indexed by 6.6%.

Indexation of these areas will be carried out tentatively from April 1 of this year. The exact figure by which the transferred amounts will increase has not been announced by the government. But preliminary it is 2.6%.

Social pensions are assigned when there is a lack of total work experience, as well as to disabled people and some other categories of recipients. State benefits are paid to people who have retired from the state civil service.

There are no revisions to the amount of pension payments for pensioners who continue to work in 2021. But some progress is still being made. In particular, the President was given instructions to study the existing possibilities for indexation of this type of pension payments.

At the current time, only recalculation for additional length of service is provided. The procedure is traditionally carried out in the month of August. There is no point in hoping for a significant increase in amounts, since the increase cannot exceed the value of three pension points, i.e. 279 rubles.

Indexation of pensions in 2021 for non-working pensioners

From January 1, 2021, funds paid by the state are subject to indexation by 6.3%. This recalculation will be carried out in relation to 696 thousand recipients. The average increase will be 890 rubles. At the same time, only non-working pensioners will receive the new amount.

Indexation of pensions in the amount of 6.3% of the fund (fixed payment) is provided to ensure:

• by old age;
• orphans;
• on disability.

The average increase will be 1000 rubles. The increase will depend on the size of the charges: calculations are made in proportion to their size.

Pension indexation is scheduled for early 2021.

An increase in the amount of funds paid by the state is also expected for military retirees who worked after retirement in civilian organizations and registered with the Pension Fund. Unfortunately, this provision does not apply to working military personnel.

Indexing will not affect employed citizens; the moratorium will be extended. Persons who have worked a period specified by law and continue to work will only be able to count on recalculation for length of service, which starts in August of the coming year. In 2021, points for 2021 are taken into account. This is a no-application procedure; the next calculation occurs as planned annually.

The citizen will receive the bonus until the next recalculation or until he stops working. The amount of the supplement is calculated individually, but cannot exceed the amount of 296.58 rubles.

Working people can increase the amount of pension accruals in the following cases:

1. increase in the number of dependents in the family - 1/3 of the FV (fixed payment) for each disabled family member;
2. moving to the Far North or an equivalent area - for the amount of the surcharge coefficient established in the given area;
3. the development of years to receive the northern increase is 15 years for the KS and 20 years for the ISS;
4. recalculation for non-insurance periods - child care, service in the Russian army, etc.

To complete the recalculation procedure, you need to submit an application to your Pension Fund.

From the beginning of 2021, they are entitled to the following additional payments:

• people aged 80+ years - 6044.48 rubles;
• 30 years of production in the field of agriculture - 1511.12 rubles;
• 15 years northern - 3022.24 rubles;
• 20 years of production in the ISS - 2014.83 rubles;
• for dependents - 2014.83 rubles each.

It should be taken into account that the surcharge is accrued simultaneously for no more than 3 dependents in one family.

Muscovites are provided with:

• one-time accruals for significant public holidays and dates - Victory Day and other significant events;
• issuance of additional funds to persons born before September 3, 1945.

Residents of the city of Moscow do not need to apply for money on a one-time basis; they are awarded based on the database of social security authorities.

From 01/01/21, non-working pensioners will receive an increased pension. Indexation is carried out annually according to the level of inflation to protect older citizens from rising prices for products and services. Along with the increase in the PV (fixed payment), additional accruals for the northern work experience, work in agriculture, and caring for disabled family members will also increase. At the same time, recalculation of insurance payments to the working population of retirement age is not provided.

Amount of additional payments to pensioners in 2021

In addition, fixed payments are planned for pensions of different categories of disabled people.

The values ​​given in the table apply only to non-working persons. For those disabled people who work, the fixed rate does not increase and remains the same as it was assigned on the date the pension was assigned.

Not all categories of pensioners can count on the promised increase in pensions by almost a thousand rubles. Indexation will affect those whose monthly payment does not exceed 16,000 rubles. For those pensioners who do not meet this requirement, the increase in pension will affect only the insurance part.

Also, payments will not be indexed to citizens receiving social pensions, but who did not have time to accumulate the minimum required number of pension points before receiving an insurance pension. Their pension will be indexed on April 1 to the level of the projected index of increasing the cost of living, which in 2021 is 2.6%.

In addition, the increase in pension payments on January 1, 2021 will not affect all categories of disabled people, as well as veterans of various military operations. Their pension will be increased on the first day of February by 3.8%, and the amount of the pension they receive will depend on the size of the available payments. This premium was calculated based on the consumer price increase index for 2021.

Indexation of pensions for working pensioners was suspended in 2016, but this temporary measure may be canceled in 2021. Intensive and heated discussions in the State Duma allow talk about a possible revision of the decision, since, according to experts, it conflicts with the norms of the Constitution. Many experts are convinced that the return will be socially fair, since people who have retired are often forced to work to ensure a decent standard of living. In addition, they work openly and officially and pay the required insurance premiums in full.

The draft budget for 2021 did not include funds to increase pensions for working pensioners. Many deputies are in favor of developing and adopting a draft law to repeal the Federal Freezing Law, and even V.V. Putin approved the initiative, but there is no news on this topic yet. If the changes are adopted, it will not happen before the spring session.

The indexation of pensions of non-working pensioners will take place on the first day of the new year 2021 by 6.3%. Despite the difficult socio-economic situation in the country, the increase rate remains at the planned level. More than 7.8 trillion rubles were allocated to the state budget to ensure these payments, as well as more than 632 billion rubles for other payments made from the Russian Pension Fund.

Also, from January 1, the process of transferring citizens who receive pensions of different categories to the unified national payment system MIR will be completed. Accordingly, all payments from this day will be credited only to MIR cards. Despite the fact that the transition has been smooth since 2021 and the end of the process was planned for July 2021, due to the pandemic, it was decided to extend the transfer time until the last day of 2021.

Despite the difficult situation in Russia, as well as throughout the world, price increases remain within the predicted limits. Therefore, the indexation of pension payments by 6.3%, which is almost twice the inflation rate, will allow pensioners to lead a normal lifestyle. However, if the situation further gets out of control, the government will take the necessary measures to support the most vulnerable segments of the population, including people receiving pension payments.

As reported by the Pension Fund of Russia, the average pension after indexation will be 17,443 rubles. Topilin noted that annual indexation is enshrined in law. He also added that from February 1, monthly cash payments to various categories of citizens will be indexed by 4.9%, that is, to the inflation that prevailed at the end of 2020.

According to the head of the Pension Fund, the fund is currently continuing to work on timely verification of citizens’ personalized data - that is, more than 70% of pensions are assigned without a citizen’s request.

The Cabinet of Ministers presented several options for increase. According to Dmitry Peskov, the decision will be made jointly with the government only after careful consideration of the proposed methods:

1. Simultaneous and complete resumption of indexing. This is the most expensive, but at the same time fair option, according to which payments will be increased according to the missing indices, and in the future their sizes will change along with benefits for unemployed Russians.
2. Phased recovery. In this case, indexation will be carried out only in relation to current payments, similar to pensions for non-working Russians. At the same time, the additional payment for past periods remains “frozen” until the citizen is dismissed.
3. For certain population groups. The issue of resuming indexation for working citizens of retirement age who have a disability group is being discussed. The proposal was supported by the head of state during a meeting with representatives of public organizations held in early December last year.
4. Depending on income level. The option involves carrying out indexation exclusively for low-income individuals. However, the size of the increase is not announced.

Which of the proposed options for indexing pensions for working pensioners in 2021 will be chosen, or whether another pension restoration scheme will be offered, will become known from the latest news in the near future. From the point of view of State Duma deputy from the Communist Party of the Russian Federation Nikolai Kolomeytsev, specific conditions and an option for resuming payments will be presented personally by the head of state as part of the annual message to the Federal Assembly. According to preliminary data, the event will take place on February 24-25.

Once the Kremlin decides on a mechanism for increasing pensions, it will need to be enshrined at the legislative level:

• submit a corresponding bill for consideration by State Duma deputies;
• wait for its approval in 3 readings;
• obtain approval from the Federation Council;
• send it to the head of state for signature.

• Microloan
• Consumer loan
• Credit cards
• Business loan
• Mortgage
• Deposits
• Car loan
• Trade loans
• Webmoney loan

The number of accumulated pension points depends on the amount of insurance contributions. They are paid by the employer or by each person for himself - such as individual entrepreneurs or voluntarily insured people.

But there is a maximum beyond which points will not be awarded even with a very high salary. In 2021, you could get no more than 9.57 points, in 2021 and beyond - no more than 10.

Whatever your salary is in 2021, you will earn a maximum of 10 points. This means that the pension in 2021 amounts will increase by almost 1000 RUR per month: 10 points × 98.86 RUR.

Mothers with many children can retire earlier than usual:

• at the birth of three children - at 57 years old:
• at the birth of four - at 56 years old;
• for the birth of five or more - at 50 years.

But there is no transition period for them, so already in 2021 you need to have at least 15 years of experience and 21 pension points.

In 2021, for the first time, mothers with many children will be able to use their right to early retirement on new grounds - for now only if they have at least four children. In 2021, the normal retirement age was already lower than the preferential age. But in the second half of 2021, mothers of four children can retire at 56 years old - six months earlier than others.

Mothers of three children will use the benefit no earlier than 2023.

For mothers of five or more children, the benefit existed before - it still works the same way. Fathers do not have such a benefit.

Even if you don’t have enough experience and points, the state still won’t leave you without a pension: in such cases they pay a social pension. It is equal to the fixed part of the insurance pension with an increase in the form of a social supplement.

But the right to such a pension arises 5 years later than usual. Taking into account the transition period, in 2021 it is 61 years and 6 months for women and 66 years and 6 months for men.

Northerners, teachers, doctors, artists and civil servants have their own specific rules for assigning pensions. About them - in another analysis.

The amount of payments to pensioners depends entirely on how large the amount of material support will be in the state budget. However, we must not forget that planned indexation is carried out in April, although its size depends on inflationary changes.

Today, official inflation is not yet clear, so there is no need to wait for the authorities to provide information regarding the official indexation of funds in Russia

Mikhail Mishustin is concerned about the security of citizens, so he recently announced that pension payments will be indexed for 2021.

The preliminary amount will be 7%, but changes are possible. For a very long time, pensioners did not feel any increases, so the situation needs to change. On average, indexation of social and labor pensions will increase benefits by approximately 550 rubles. At the same time, the pension for disabled people since childhood will be about 14.5 thousand rubles, and the total social pension will increase to an average of 10,000 rubles.

However, it cannot be said that indexing will not end there. The military is expecting an increase in pension payments; also in 2020, those employees who were dismissed due to length of service from the departments of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the FSB and the Federal Penitentiary Service can count on an increase in financial compensation.

The size of labor and social pensions for those people who work deserves special attention. The procedure for paying insurance pensions in this case remains the same. Increases for working people will be mandatory, but only after they complete their work activities.

You can preview the amount of your financial allowance in your personal account on the official website of the Pension Fund. The fact that the recipient has received the right to it is described by the legislation of the Russian Federation.

The initial indexation will be carried out in January, according to the data provided for employees of the Pension Fund. According to the general rules, it is known that a pension is assigned after a pensioner ceases his working activity, that is, a month after his official dismissal. At the same time, citizens who have retired will be able to count on receiving payments according to all the rules.

It's no secret that Russia today is experiencing serious difficulties. The epidemic, as well as quarantine measures around the world, have depleted the state budget. The authorities say they are ready to support the population by fulfilling their social obligations, but there are different opinions on this matter.

Some members of the State Duma are making proposals for additional indexation of pension payments. They believe that this will support the country’s citizens, especially against the backdrop of a decline in the cost of oil, to record lows, as well as the instability of the ruble exchange rate.

It is impossible to say exactly by what percentage labor and social pensions will be indexed in 2021, but this does not mean that there will be no indexation. It is simply impossible to do without this, because according to preliminary forecasts, the fall of the ruble could lead to food prices rising by 10-35 percent. In this case, indexation is the only method of increasing pension benefits, so even in times of crisis it is simply impossible to move away from this.
