1200 rubles will be transferred as a pension supplement: the Social Fund gave details
If a citizen receives two pensions – one for old age and one for disability – an additional payment is assigned to one of them.
The government is changing the wage system. In this case, we are talking about payments for care of people over 80 years old and disabled people of the first group.
Currently, these payments are received by people directly participating in them. From January 2025, pensioners will be paid compensation in the amount of 1,200 rubles in the form of an additional payment to their pension.
The Ministry of Labor explained that in order to receive compensation, pensioners, disabled people and caregivers must submit an application through government services or visit the social fund in person.
The Social Fund itself notifies pensioners, disabled persons or their legal representatives about the establishment of care benefits. The local branch of the fund must inform the population about this within three days from the moment of the decision to allocate payments.
"Benefits will be indexed annually at the federal level," explained State Duma committee member Svetlana Bessarab in an interview with Parlamentskaya Gazeta.
