The majority of Russian citizens count on receiving a pension as the main type of state support at a certain period of life. Previously, pensions were usually given to people only in their own hands; to do this they had to go to the post office. However, not every pensioner was healthy enough to walk to their post office and stand in line. Therefore, home delivery of pensions has become a real boon for many people. This method of receiving a pension has been widely practiced recently; in addition, the population is offered different delivery methods.

Changes when receiving a pension at home in 2020

During the quarantine period, the Russian Post decided to deliver pensions to their homes for those pensioners who go to the branch to collect money. This is done to reduce the risk of contracting coronavirus.

Only a few Russians continue to visit the post office every month to receive a pension due to long lines and the inconvenience of this method (according to estimates by the Russian Post there are about 8%) . But for those who did not want to transfer pension payments to a card or courier delivery, some changes awaited them. In April, they received their pension at home on the due date or in advance. In May, funds will be transferred outside the usual schedule due to the weekend.

In addition to the pension, pensioners can order additional services: delivery of groceries, payment of utility bills and taxes, etc.

In Moscow, those who receive it via a savings book at Sberbank can also order delivery of their pension to their home.

How to transfer a pension to a bank card

This method is becoming increasingly popular.
Many people are already using it. It is expected that it will soon become the most popular. You can also receive money through the cash register. In this case, the most convenient option is to transfer funds to the MIR social card. Moreover, the pensioner does not pay for the issue or for maintenance. All expenses are covered by Sberbank.

Design mechanism

1. To receive a pension in this way, you must go to a Sberbank branch. The applicant must have with him:
   passport;
2. pensioner's ID.
3. A personal account is opened. A bank card is issued.
4. The pensioner submits the account details in printed form to the PF territorial office.

The receipt of pension funds from the Pension Fund to the card begins on the day it is put into effect.
Typically, the card is issued and funds are transferred to it within the same day. And then the pensioner can withdraw the entire amount or only part of the money received from an ATM. He can also use the card to pay for utilities, goods in a store (including in an online store), cellular communications, etc. You can also transfer money to cards of other persons. Usually some part of the money remains in the account until the next receipt. Sberbank accrues interest quarterly. Although the amount accumulated is small, it is still an increase in pension. In addition, using the card it is possible to accumulate savings in a generally safe way.

Should be considered. When using bank cards, it is extremely important to follow all general security rules:

• remember the PIN code by heart (in no case should you write it on the card);
• keep the PIN code only in a safe place;
• no outsider should know these numbers;
• do not give in to provocations over the phone (when they call supposedly from the bank to provide additional payments and require you to indicate your PIN code);
• do not disclose SMS passwords to third parties upon request, which comes from the 900 number to the phone (in this way, fraudsters gain access to funds transferred to the card through an online service;
• do not disclose to third parties via the Internet or by telephone either the card number or the digital code (available on the reverse side);
• withdraw money only from trusted ATMs (if the ATM looks suspicious, is installed in a strange place, or is faulty, it is better to bypass it).

Will it be possible to receive a pension at home after transferring pensions to MIR cards from Sberbank?

After the planned transfer of pensions to MIR cards, receiving a pension at home through the services of the Russian Post or another organization will continue. It will be impossible to receive Visa and MasterCard cards.

Due to the difficult epidemiological situation, the transfer of pensions to MIR cards was postponed from July to October.

How to receive a pension at Russian Post

An important nuance is the payment deadline, which is set directly by the post office in accordance with the existing schedule. Distribution of cash allowance recipients allows you to relieve mail windows from client overload.

There is a special service responsible for delivering money to the apartment with subsequent official delivery to its rightful owner. The rights of pensioners include a clause regarding the execution of an application for the delivery of pensions directly to the threshold of their own home. As part of this method, a post office is required, and the recipient does not need to make a personal visit.

How to arrange or transfer a receipt to your home

The traditional form of receiving a pension at home is delivery by postman. It is most in demand in small localities where banking infrastructure is not developed.

You can receive pensions via mail at home or independently at the branch at your place of residence.
Also, a pensioner can choose to receive a pension at home from an organization that delivers pensions. A complete list of such institutions should be checked with your local Pension Fund office. Also read: procedure for receiving a pension through Russian Post in 2020 →

To choose a method for delivering a pension to your home or transferring payments, you need to notify the Pension Fund about this. Since face-to-face methods of visiting the fund in order to submit an application during the spread of coronavirus are not available, you can reissue payments to your home:

• through the MFC (do not work in some regions);
• in electronic form in the Pension Fund office or on the government services portal.

To submit an application, a pensioner will need a passport, pension certificate, SNILS and other documents. In the application, he writes down his personal data (SNILS, passport data) and the address to which the pension will be delivered. By the way, you can use this link to make statements on our website.

After processing the application, the pension will begin to be delivered to the pensioner’s home on the specified date.

The delivery time for pensions to your home is set at the local post office level, taking into account the postman’s workload. If the pensioner was not at home at the appointed time, then he will have to go to the post office himself to receive the money. When payments fall on the weekend, the money is brought in advance.

Pension delivery methods

The pensioner wants the money to be brought home. The addressee can use one of 3 methods for delivering the pension. First way
. Russian Post service. You can get money the old way - pick it up in person at the post office. But for many citizens it is much more convenient to use the service of a postman, who will certainly ring the doorbell on a certain day. The post office has a pension delivery schedule. You can clarify your calendar day by contacting the post office employees, because the end days of the delivery period may vary.

Second way

. Bank service. The user also receives his pension in hand at a bank branch, and he can also use a bank card. The second option allows you to:

• cash out exactly the amount at an ATM that is currently required;
• pay for purchases non-cash;
• receive certain interest accrued on the remaining amount (now such conditions are often offered by credit institutions).

Money appears in the pensioner’s account on the same day when it arrives from the local PF office to the bank. The pensioner can withdraw them immediately. The law provides the right to choose a suitable bank, but PFR branches prefer to cooperate only with Sberbank of Russia. Third way
. Service of organizations accredited by the Pension Fund of Russia. They are engaged in the delivery of pension payments. Responsible PF employees, upon request of a citizen, provide a complete list of these organizations. Direct payments are made according to the same scheme as in the traditional way:

• or when contacting a branch of the organization in person;
• or by delivery by an employee of the organization to a specific address.

How Russian Post delivers pensions

This option for receiving a pension is very convenient for citizens, which is why many choose it.
The elderly recipient does not have to go somewhere and then return with a large sum, putting himself in danger. All that remains is to arrange for the money to be delivered via mail. Simply submit an application to your local post office. Payment for the service is at the expense of the Pension Fund, so the pensioner does not have to pay personally.

But it is necessary to point out certain inconveniences of this system. If the day the pension is issued is known, then the time is not indicated. You can wait all day, so the recipient should be at home from morning to evening. The postman is not required to appear at the specified address again. And if the pensioner for some reason (took out the trash, went out to get some fresh air, went to the store) is not at home, then he will have to receive money at the post office, that is, go there in person. And the post office may be very far from home.

If a working person receives a pension, this method of receiving a pension is completely inconvenient for him. But there is a way to get around this inconvenience: write out a power of attorney to receive a pension. Here the authorized person can be:

• relative;
• neighbour;
• the other is a citizen whom the pensioner trusts.

Important! Let's say the delivery period is coming to an end, but no money has been received. Then you need to contact the post office where you originally submitted your application. If the problem cannot be clarified, then you will have to stand in line at the Pension Fund branch to contact the operator.

If a pensioner moves

A person changes his place of residence. Then he submits an application for transfer of the pension that he is entitled to to the post office located at the new address. The appeal should be submitted:

• registration of a pension through the MFC;
• to the PF branch to which the recipient will be assigned after the move.

Precautions when receiving a pension

After receiving a pension, the pensioner needs to sign for the pension. The amount on the documents and the amount issued in hand must match.

When receiving a pension during the quarantine period, an elderly person should exercise caution:

1. Sign documents with your own pen.
2. Make sure the postman is wearing gloves and a mask.
3. Wash your hands after receiving cash.

The postman may ask for a passport, but he has no right to copy or photograph it. He should not ask questions about the card details and existing savings.

Usually a pensioner knows the postman by sight. When visiting a suspicious stranger, you can call the post office to make sure that this is an employee of the Russian Post.

It is worth considering that pension providers cannot provide services for revising the size of the pension or increasing it. This is not within their competence. Pension Fund employees also do not make house calls, offering additional services.

How to receive money at home

Well, we’ve looked at how to transfer a pension from a card to the post office, and now let’s explore another way - re-registering payments to receive them at home. The service is completely free, the postman’s work is paid for by the Pension Fund of Russia, you just need to write a corresponding application at the post office.

The main advantages of this method include:

• there is no need to waste time and energy waiting for your turn, and besides, for many pensioners this turns out to be beyond their means;
• security and preservation of money integrity. Agree that it is easier to take money on the street.

But pay attention to some subtleties of this method. If a postal employee does not find you at home at the appointed time, in order to receive funds you will need to contact the appropriate post office and receive funds from the cash register. But you should remember that you must receive your pension before the end of the current payment period.

The question of whether it is possible to receive a pension by mail and not on a card interests many pensioners, especially older ones, but as you can see, changing the source is very simple and does not take much time. The choice lies entirely with you and it depends only on your desire where to keep and receive the required pension benefits.
