The minimum amount varies depending on where you live. For example, in the capital of Russia it is 12 thousand rubles, and in the bordering Moscow region - 9900 rubles. People can be neighbors and live across the street, but receive different pensions.

Based on the results of the first half of 2020, the number of pensioners in Chuvashia receiving pensions from the Pension Fund is about 366 thousand. More than 3 thousand of them are those who, having retired from law enforcement agencies, earned themselves civilian experience; 27 thousand receive social pensions.

In 2020, more than 34 billion rubles were spent on pensions and social payments from the Pension Fund budget.

The republic has seen a growing trend in the number of pensioners; an increase of approximately 2 thousand is expected by the end of the year. In the capital of Chuvashia, Cheboksary, there are also more and more pensioners, and today their number exceeds 126 thousand.

In the Chuvash Republic there are federal beneficiaries, there are about 104.5 thousand of them, monthly payments to them are 2.2 thousand rubles.

These payments have been indexed by 7% since February, just like the cost of the social package, consisting of transport, medicine and sanatorium-resort parts. Now it is valued at 995 rubles.

In total, in 2020, more than 34 billion rubles were allocated from the Pension Fund budget, which went towards pension and social payments to citizens of Chuvashia.

On December 20, 2020, the fourth session of the State Council of the Chuvash Republic took place. Among the issues discussed at the session was an increase in social payments to certain categories of citizens of the republic at the regional level. The interests of pensioners were affected.

There are many labor veterans among them; they either continue to work or belong to the category of non-working pensioners. Not so long ago in Chuvashia there was a high-profile case regarding the deprivation of benefits to working pensioners - labor veterans.

Thus, the list includes benefits for the use of local telephone communications; some points regarding medical care, including free, and service in clinics, which veterans attended when they were still working. It is planned to allocate about 1,733.5 million rubles from the local budget for these events.

Citizens of Chuvashia who have reached the age of 70 or 80 years old received benefits in 2016 that relate to major repairs of common property in an apartment building. Those over 80 are completely exempt from this contribution, while 70-year-olds pay half.

The Chuvash Republic is making efforts to keep up with the broad steps of progress in the implementation of electronic services. Pensioners are offered to master communication with the Pension Fund via the Internet. Such work is carried out in Cheboksary and the surrounding area; customer service points continue to appear in different places across the republic.

At such a point, they install guest computers and offer pensioners and other citizens to register in the government services portal and gain access to it. There are also consultants present to help you get comfortable in an unfamiliar environment.

Visits to the local Pension Fund branch are not canceled completely, but their number is greatly reduced, and this is important for a pensioner. The time required to resolve the issue is also reduced if you submit an application electronically.

Citizens of working age, worried about their future pension, can check whether their contributions to the Pension Fund are transferred correctly. You can also find out the size of your future pension using the Pension Fund's free calculator.

And this is right, because everything needs to be done in advance, so that later, when you retire, you can relax and not worry about anything.

Before completing documents to receive benefits, many citizens are trying to find out what the minimum old-age pension is in 2019.

The concept of a “minimum pension” does not appear in Russian legislation, since the “minimum salary” at the end of a working career is determined by various factors: the level of inflation, the general economic situation, etc.

Thus, the minimum old-age pension in Moscow in 2020 is no less than 14,500 rubles. The rules apply to non-working pensioners who have lived in the capital for at least 10 years.

At the same time, the capital’s authorities pay extra to those Muscovites whose pension does not reach 14.5 thousand after the February 4% indexation. Federal Laws No. 400 and Federal Law No. 424, which entered into force on January 1, 2015, significantly changed pension legislation.

To receive at least a minimum pension benefit, in addition to reaching retirement age, the recipient must meet other minimum requirements established by law:

1. The main condition for assigning a pension payment is the presence of a certain amount of work experience.
2. At the same time, pension provision is provided both for citizens who have earned the required length of service and for those who do not have it.

The size of the old-age pension for each recipient depends on many circumstances; it can only be compared with the level of the pensioner’s subsistence level established in the region of his residence.

Depending on the pension recipient’s compliance with the conditions specified by law, he may be assigned one of the following types of old-age pension:

1. social (established and paid from the Federal budget).
2. insurance (formed and paid from mandatory insurance contributions transferred by employers for their employees, or by individual entrepreneurs for their employees and for themselves to the Pension Fund);
