By what percentage will the pension increase? Increase in pension supplement for working pensioners

Indexation of pensions in 2018 in Russia will be carried out in three stages:

The moratorium on indexation of pensions in 2018 will be maintained - that is, employed citizens who are already retired will be able to count only for recalculation from August 1 based on accrued pension points for the previous year. They will be able to receive all the indexation missed during the moratorium.

In addition to the indexation of pension payments, in 2018 there will also be changes in the basics of pension provision for Russian citizens, which will affect the conditions for retirement upon reaching retirement age and the formation of pension rights of working citizens. Another question that concerns pensioners in connection with the onset of the new year is whether there will be one (alas, but no - this time there will be no such payment).

Indexation of pensions in 2018

According to the provisions of Law No. 400-FZ of December 28, 2013, insurance (labor) pensions of citizens must be indexed annually from February 1 to the inflation level of the previous year, and if the Pension Fund has additional financial resources, indexation is carried out again on April 1. But the new year is traditional The procedure for indexing labor pensions will change: their increase will occur 1 month earlier - already.

Social pensions and other social payments made by the Pension Fund, will be promoted as usual to the actual level of price growth for 2017:

At the same time, an increase in insurance pensions. Let us recall that the indexation of pensions for working citizens was suspended in 2016 due to the difficult economic situation in the country. This freeze helped save the state 12 billion rubles. However, all missed indexations must be compensated to the citizen already.

Pension increase from January 1, 2018 (latest news)

In accordance with the law adopted by the State Duma on December 15, 2017 (introduced by the Government as) on changing the procedure for indexing insurance pensions in 2018 all types of pensions (old age, disability, survivors) should increase from January 1, 2018 by 3.7%. The previous procedure for increasing labor pensions is suspended until the beginning of 2019, and this increase does not apply to working pensioners (see the text of the law below).

It should be borne in mind that any insurance pension consists of two parts:

• fixed payment (or FV) is a constant value guaranteed by the state (for all categories of recipients it is set in a fixed amount);
• directly insurance part - this is an individual calculated value, which depends on the number of pension points earned during work.

January indexation will affect both parts of the pension as follows:

1. The fixed payment will be increased by 3.7% and will remain unchanged 4982 rubles 90 kopecks, its increase or decrease is legally established for certain categories of citizens by Law No. 400-FZ of December 28, 2013;
2. The insurance part of the pension directly depends on the points earned by the pensioner, the cost of which will increase from January 1 by 3.7% and amount to 81 ruble 49 kopecks.

In 2017, actual inflation in the country was recorded at no more than 3%. Consequently, the increase in pensions proposed by the Government by 1.037 times in 2018 formally covers the increase in consumer prices (although, of course, in its absolute value this increase will be very small - the increase will be even less than in previous years).

Increase in social payments to pensioners in 2018 from February 1

From February 1, 2018, there will also be an increase (indexation) of all social payments Pension Fund, provided for various categories of citizens (disabled people, veterans, heroes of Russia, etc.). They are provided in the form of monthly cash payments (MCB), an integral part of which is also a set of social services (NSS).

In general, NSU consists of three parts (medicines, travel and sanatorium treatment) and is provided at the choice of the pensioner in one of two ways:

• in kind (that is, directly by social services);
• in monetary terms when refusing natural food.

The cost of a set of such services (each part separately) is determined by law and increases in direct proportion to the growth of the monthly payment (EDV) - i.e. by the same percentage. In 2018, this increase is planned at a level of less than 3%, so beneficiaries will hardly feel such an increase. The preliminary values ​​of EDV and NSU in 2018 can be found in the table.

Thus, from February 1, 2018, it is planned to index social payments (including a set of social services) to the actual inflation level of last year. In the draft Government resolution, this value was fixed at 3.2%, but actual inflation will be less than 3%, so the size of the increase will be even smaller (the same applies).

Indexation of social pension in 2018 from April 1 by 4.1%

A social pension is a special type of pension, which is characterized by the pensioner’s lack of work experience for some reason. Such a pension is assigned in a fixed amount approved by law. And, as a rule, the size of social pensions is significantly lower than the calculated labor (insurance) pensions.

It should be noted that in the last two years there has been a decrease in the established growth rates of social pensions. So in April 2017, this type of pension was indexed by only 1.5%. In 2018, it is planned to reach the usual (pre-crisis) increase in the level of this type of pension provision - the projected growth of social pensions in April 2018 will be approximately 4.1%.

Unlike labor pensions, indexation of social pensions is tied to change in the cost of living of a pensioner for the previous year. Therefore, the amount of indexation of insurance and social pensions for the same year may differ (although in both cases it is associated with actual increase in consumer prices).

Thus, one of the positive changes in 2018 is a more noticeable increase in the cost of living (LS) in the country, including separately by region. At the same time, the established PM allows all non-working pensioners to receive additional payments(so called social supplements up to the subsistence level- federal and regional), if the size of their pensions is lower than the approved values.

According to the law, the level of a citizen’s pension should always be not lower than the subsistence level in the region, in which he lives (hence the seemingly strange statements of the Government that “There are no low-income pensioners in Russia”- they all receive pensions in combination with other social benefits in an amount not less than the monthly minimum wage.

Since 2010, pension applications have already included a section on receiving social benefits. If your pension was assigned before 2010, and you did not submit a separate application for an additional payment, and the pension amount is below the established subsistence level in the region, then you must independently contact the territorial bodies of the Pension Fund.

Pension increase in 2018 in Russia for working pensioners

The laws adopted in the State Duma do not provide for any changes for the working population receiving pensions for 2018. This means that working pensioners will continue to receive pension amounts without annual indexation.

Let us recall that the indexation of pensions was stopped in February 2016 for those citizens who continue to work, having exercised their right to pension provision. The Government’s plans included not indexing pensions for working Russians up to 2019.

This moratorium on pension indexation operates as follows:

• Those citizens who retired before February 1, 2016 and retained workplace, have remained without an increase in their pensions since February 2016.
• For citizens who became pensioners after February 1, 2016, when calculating the individual pension coefficient (IPC), all increases that took place on the date the right to a pension became available are taken into account.
• If you continue to work and simultaneously receive a pension, all subsequent indexations from the date of employment will again not be applied.

Working pensioners have the right to increase their pension only through annual recalculation according to the employer. From August 1 of each year, the pensions of such citizens increase by the number of points taken into account in the previous year for the period of labor activity and payment of insurance contributions during this period. But no more than 3 points per year!

An example of how working pensioners will recalculate pension indexation in the Pension Fund

A woman born on May 1, 1962, retired in 2017 within the period established by law and continues to work. What indexations will be taken into account when determining the size of the pension? And from what time will the pension stop being indexed?

The calculation of the pension for this woman will be made on the date May 1, 2017. When calculating the IPC, all approved pension growth indices will be taken into account, starting from 2015 to 05/01/2017.

• The cost of one pension coefficient will be taken as of 05/01/2017 - this is 78.58 rubles.
• The fixed payment included in the insurance pension will be taken into account taking into account indexation as of May 1, 2017 and is equal to 4805.11 rubles.

Further, subject to continued performance of paid work, all subsequent indexations of singing after appointment will be suspended. Those. the indexation carried out will no longer be applied to this woman’s pension. And this will continue until she quits her job or is fired by her employer.

Indexation of pension after dismissal of a working pensioner in 2018

In 2017, a law was adopted according to which the period for recalculating pensions after dismissal was changed. In 2018, working pensioners will be able to receive a pension with all missing indexes from the next month after dismissal. In this case, the pensioner himself should additionally contact Pension Fund will not be required, since this recalculation is entirely based on the monthly reporting of employers!

Previously, after leaving work, the pensioner received a recalculation of the pension received, taking into account all indexations in three months:

• the first month is the submission of reports to employers to the Pension Fund about citizens working in the organization;
• the second month - data on the fact of work was loaded into a single software package operating nationwide;
• the third is the adoption by the territorial body of the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation of a decision on recalculation.

For citizens who have stopped labor activity in 2018, the period for calculating pensions is reduced, taking into account indexations missed during work. This will be possible after entry into force from January 1, 2018 federal law No. 134-FZ dated July 1, 2017.

However, the process of additional accrual of missed increases will be the same for technical reasons will also take several months. But after this, when paying an already recalculated pension after 3 months, an additional payment will be made for the entire period following dismissal.

This innovation applies only to those who have been laid off. after January 1, 2018. If a pensioner quit, for example, in December 2017, then the indexation of his pension will be carried out only from April 1, 2018 - without additional payment for the period from January to March (in other words, these months will be lost).

Latest news and latest changes in pensions

As has already become clear, the increase in pensions in the new year for most categories of pensioners (barely noticeable) or, as for the large category of working pensioners -. But in the new year demands will increase to already formed pension rights and the level of wages of Russian citizens for retirement:

Other significant changes to pension system Russia is not expected in 2018. In particular, the amount expected by many in the amount of 5,000 rubles will not be paid in 2018- this was a one-time, one-time additional payment, which was due to all pensioners in January 2017 in return for the additional indexation required by law that was missed in 2016 (and there is simply no reason to pay it in 2018).

And one of the few truly good news for Russians is that no decision has yet been made on what is relevant for those who are still working or planning to retire (including men born in 1958 and women born in 1963).

Will there be a one-time payment of 5,000 rubles to pensioners in 2018?

At the beginning of 2017, recipients of all types of pensions, regardless of the fact of work, received an additional payment in the amount of 5,000 rubles. This measure was necessary in the current economically unstable situation.

Against the backdrop of a high level of inflation and the impossibility of carrying out additional indexation of pensions, in 2016 a decision was made to make a one-time payment to citizens’ pensions (Law No. 385-FZ of November 22, 2016). Thus, the pensions of Russians were “conditionally re-indexed”, many of whom perceived this simply as a New Year’s gift.

Currently, according to the Government, the economic situation in the country is normalizing. Over the past 12 months, the increase in consumer prices (inflation) does not exceed 3%, and pensions in 2017 rose in total according to two indexations by 5.78%.

The upcoming indexation of 3.7%, planned for January 2018, exceeds the inflation rate for 2017. Therefore, no additional one-time payments (5 thousand rubles or any other) will be made besides!

Will there be an increase in the retirement age in 2018 (latest news)

In the last few years, the most discussed and acute issue for Russians is question of increasing the retirement age. In many other countries, including post-Soviet ones, corresponding decisions have already been made and are being implemented.

• For example, from January 2017 in Belarus the retirement age will be increased annually by six months until women reach 58 years and men 63 years. In Kazakhstan, the same values ​​apply - for women at 58 years old, for men at 63 years old.
• In many developed countries, such as Germany, men become pensioners at 65 years old, and women at 60 years old.
• In Ukraine, the Verkhovna Rada adopted a law on pension reform, which also included an increase in the current retirement age.

Now this issue has come to a head in Russia. According to the Government, it is primarily due to the fact that the working age in the country is increasing - i.e. About a third of Russians already stop working later than retirement.

However, due to the great unpopularity of this measure, the Russian Government has not yet made a final decision on extending the retirement age (although many consider this issue resolved and note that it will most likely begin to be implemented after the next presidential elections, which will be held in March 2018 - but for now these are just rumors).

How many points and work experience do you need to retire in 2018?

Since 2015, a point system for calculating labor (insurance) pensions for citizens has been in effect, in which insurance premiums paid to the Pension Fund by the employer for its employees are transferred from rubles to relative values ​​(points). The amount of contributions taken into account for the year is correlated with the maximum accountable amount of contributions approved by the Government, which corresponds to 10 pension points(this is the maximum you can get in one year).

But in order to obtain the right to retire in old age within the generally established time limits, it is necessary to comply three mandatory conditions:

• reaching the age established by law;
• availability of insurance (work) experience;
• the presence of an established value of the individual pension coefficient (IPC) or, in other words, the size of pension points.

It should be noted that this only applies to old age pensions! Other types of pensions for compulsory pension insurance (disability, survivors) are appointed independently on the length of work (insurance) experience and the number of points received.

Since 2018 prerequisite to assign a pension upon reaching retirement age (currently 55 years for women and 60 years for men) is the availability 9 years of experience and 13.8 points individual pension coefficient (IPC).

An example of calculating pension points from 2015 to 2018

For a man born in 1965, he has an official salary before income tax (NDFL) of 30,000 rubles (accordingly, annual earnings are 360,000 rubles). Let’s assume that this citizen’s salary has never increased since 2015. At the same time, deductions are not made for him to the funded part of the pension, since he was born before 1967. Thus, the employer pays insurance premiums for this man to an individual personal account in the amount of 16% of earnings before personal income tax - that is, 16% × 360,000 = 57,600 rubles per year. Let's calculate how many points this man has earned since 2015, when the new pension formula came into effect.

Every year the Government approves for these purposes the so-called salary cap, the amount of mandatory contributions from which to the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation to a citizen’s individual personal account is 16%. Thus, the maximum established salary in the country from 2015 to 2018 is the following values ​​(see table below).

In 2018, the insurance base for contributions to the Pension Fund will be 1,021,000 rubles according to Government Decree No. 1378 dated November 15, 2017. Then the maximum amount of insurance premiums taken into account for the year, accepted for 10 points, will be 163,360 rubles (an increase of almost 17% compared to 2017).

Therefore, every ruble earned in 2018 will “depreciate” when transferred to pension points relative to 2017 by immediately 1 - (1 / 1.17) = 15%, and relative to the level of 2015 - by more than 30! Therefore, it is not enough to have only a constant high salary to form decent pension rights. So that their volume does not decrease from year to year, according to the new pension formula salary must grow by at least 10% per year(see table above).

Let's return to our example. To convert monthly earnings of 30,000 rubles into points, you need to correlate the salary data (taking 16% of annual earnings, which in the example under consideration will be 57,600 rubles per year) to the established limit values ​​and multiply by 10:

• 57600 / 113760 × 10 = 5.06 points earned by a citizen in 2015;
• 57600 / 127360 × 10 = 4.52 points in 2016;
• 57600 / 140160 × 10 = 4.11 points in 2017;
• 57600 / 163360 × 10 = 3.53 points will be earned in 2018.

Thus, in just 4 years, while maintaining the same level of wages (in the example under consideration, this is 30 thousand rubles per month) the number of accrued pension points decreased by 30%(in this example - from 5.06 points in 2015 to 3.53 in 2018). Thus, in the modern pension system

Welcome to website. In the article we will talk about various pension supplements and allowances established in 2019 in Russia. Pension payments for Russian pensioners increase annually; this is based on compensating for constant inflation processes.

The next increase in payments includes not only indexation of the base part, but also an increase in other pension supplements, to which pensioners are entitled. But it is worth knowing that indexation of pensions for working pensioners will not be carried out. If you don’t yet know whether there will be a pension supplement in 2019, then our publication will be useful.

All accruals in 2019 will be based on recently adopted new pension reforms. In accordance with the Law “On Insurance Pensions”, which was adopted in 2013, the old-age pension will be accrued under the following conditions:

• Reaching a certain age to receive a pension, for women this age is 60 years, for men 65 years.
• Having the required work experience.
• Availability of a certain number of accumulated pension points.

Increasing requirements for length of service and pension insurance payment ratios will occur every year until 2025. In 2019, these indicators are equal to 9 years of experience and 13.8 points, and in 2019 the indicators will increase to 10 years of experience and 16.2 points, and such an increase will occur constantly. Based on the results of these data, each person can know whether his indicators correspond to those necessary for retirement.

There have also been changes in the system of contributions for people who work. This year, a new accumulation system was introduced into the system, that is, each worker can independently determine how much will be contributed to savings part pensions - from 1% to 50%. You can also use these savings before a person retires. Additionally, the issue of transferring the funded part by inheritance is being resolved.

According to the law, the indexation of pensions is carried out to protect the population from the consequences of inflation and the difficult economic situation. As before, the pension supplement in 2019 will be carried out over several months:

• From January 1, the old-age pension will be indexed by 7.05%, but only those pensioners who have no other sources of income will receive it, that is, working pensioners will not receive it. Previously this pension supplement was carried out on February 1, but now money for it was set aside in the budget in advance. In order to find out how much the pension for non-working pensioners will increase, the pension payment must be multiplied by a factor of 0.0705, i.e. planned indexation ratio. If the pension in 2018 was around the Russian average - about 14,414 rubles, then the increase will be 1,000 rubles per month. If the pension in 2018 was less than the average for the Russian Federation, then the increase will be less; if the pension was more than the average, then more than 1000 rubles will be added. Thus, the average increase in the pension of a non-working pensioner per month is 1000 rubles.
• From April 1, social and state pension, at the moment indexation will occur at 4.1%.

The new reform did not spare civil servants either. In accordance with the new law, from January 1, 2017, their retirement age will increase annually by six months, and minimum experience must be at least 20 years. As a result, in 2019, women will retire at the age of 56, and men at 61. Age limit for men it will be in 2026 and will be 65 years. For women, the increase in the retirement age will stop in 2032 and will be 63 years.

Social payments will increase from February 1, 2019

In addition to the fact that there was an increase in pensions in January 2019, an increase in payments will occur from February 1 of this year. All types of payments for all categories of pensioners will increase. They are provided in the form of a monthly payment of EDV; they also include social services of the NSO.

At the moment, the NSS (set of social services) includes three main parts - medicines, travel and sanatorium-resort treatment. The pensioner receives them in one of two ways, which he chooses independently:

1. Receiving directly in social form.
2. In the form of cash payments, if the pensioner refuses to receive in kind.

The cost of each set is set directly by law, and the increase occurs in proportion to the increase in the EDV, that is, by the same percentage. In 2019, it is planned to increase these services by 3.9%, but this increase will not be very noticeable for preferential pensioners.

As a result, on February 1 of this year, payments will be indexed social purpose, as well as social services.

How the social pension will be indexed from April 1, 2019

A social pension is a type of pension that is not affected by various reasons work experience. Her appointment is subject to legislative approval. But the amounts of such a pension are very different from the amounts of labor pension payments.

It's worth knowing that in last years there was slow growth in these payout ratios. In April 2017, this indexation was only 1.5%. In 2018, this ratio was significantly higher - 4.1%. N pension supplement in 2019 in April it is planned for 2.4%.

This type of pension depends entirely on the cost of living. As a result, the increase in insurance pensions and social pensions at the same time is very different, despite the fact that both types of payments are entirely dependent on consumer price increases.

As a result, the planned average social pension in 2019 will be 9,215 rubles. This is 104.2% of the pension subsistence minimum.

In 2019 there will be another positive change; the cost of living will increase both in general and in individual regions. Also, all pensioners who do not work can receive additional payments. In other words, they will receive additional bonuses, both from the state and from the region, but only if the size of their pensions is below the established values.

In accordance with the law, a person’s pension should not be below the subsistence level of the region in which he lives.

In 2010, sections for receiving social benefits were added to applications. If a person’s pension was issued before 2010, but a separate application for these payments was not submitted and the pension amount is below the subsistence level established in the region, then he can independently contact the Pension Fund and write an application to receive them.

Increase in pension supplement for working pensioners

The changes made this year do not apply to those pensioners who continue to work. That is, there will be no pension supplement in January 2019 for working citizens.

It is worth remembering that the indexation of pension payments to the working population stopped back in 2016. By law, such a stop to indexing was suspended until 2019, as working pensioners exercise their right to receive a pension.

This moratorium on increasing pension payments to the working population is carried out as follows:

• Those people who retired before 2016 and continue to work are not entitled to an increase in pension payments.
• Those citizens who retire after February 2016 will receive a pension, the calculation of which will include all previous indexations that occurred before the day of retirement.
• If a person has retired and continues to work, then all indexations that will occur from the moment of his employment will not apply to him.

Working pensioners can count on annual recalculation based on data provided by the employer. Every year on August 1, the pensions of working pensioners will increase by the number of points that were taken into account over the past year, as well as for insurance payments. The increase cannot be more than 3 points per year.

Will they add a lump sum payment in 2019?

The change in indexation occurred in 2016 due to a lack of funds in the budget and difficulties in the country’s economy. At that time, the increase in pension payments was made by only 4%, while the previous inflation was 12.9%. It was planned to carry out indexation in October, but it never happened.

Then the government decided to compensate for this difference with a one-time payment of 5,000 rubles. A pensioner could receive it only once, and it did not take part in indexation. This compensation was calculated based on the average pension amount, which was multiplied by the increase factor. In other words, with a pension of 13,000 rubles, the pensioner received 5,000 compensation.

The transfer took place in January last year at the same time as the pension. Both working and military pensioners received it. The feeling of short-term gain occurred only among those pensioners with low security. For other categories, this payment could not cover the indexed income. Such a one-time supplement to pensions will not be paid to pensioners in 2019.

Indexation of pensions this year will be carried out in full, since there are already funds for this. The pension of recipients of insurance payments will increase by 3.7%.

Will there be a supplement for military pensioners?

When the government met on October 25, the Russian President instructed to control the funds that would be used to increase military pensions, as well as salaries for working military personnel. The increase took place on January 1, 2019, and affected former military personnel and citizens who are equivalent to them.

The amounts of military pension payments in our country depend entirely on the salaries of military personnel, which must increase every year, but this increase stopped back in 2013 due to a freeze. The increase in military pensions is carried out due to constant changes in the cost of living. This increase occurs annually based on government decisions. Last year, payments increased by 4%, and the coefficient increased to 72.23%.

But according to the latest news, it became known that the indexation of pensions for the military will not be carried out due to a reduction factor; the indexation will be based on the indexation of military salaries.

It is worth knowing that military pensioners belong to the category that has the right to simultaneously receive two types of pensions:

1. From the Ministry of Defense or Ministry of Internal Affairs.
2. Insurance pension, if after leaving service they have required experience for its formation.

Now it’s worth finding out what kind of bonus awaits military pensioners in 2019. Those citizens who receive additional insurance pension, will receive an increase of 7.05% at the beginning of this year.

Increase in pension in Moscow in 2019

Moscow pension supplements in 2019 depend entirely on the types of payments that the citizen receives, that is, old age, state or social payments, as well as on how long the pensioner lives in the capital. But it is worth remembering that if a citizen’s pension is less than it is established by law, then the pensioner is obliged to receive an additional payment, which is established by law. For each case, this norm is:

• The cost of living for a person of retirement age.
• Urban social start.

If a person lives in the capital for less than 10 years, then his pension will increase as follows. In accordance with the law, if a person receives an old-age pension lower than the minimum cost of living in a given region, then he is entitled to an additional payment from the region, which is the difference between these two amounts. It is worth remembering that this supplement is paid only to those Muscovites who have been permanently registered in the capital for less than 10 years. If a pensioner lives in Moscow longer than this established time, then he receives a completely different compensation.

In 2018, the minimum subsistence pension for pensioners who have lived in Moscow for less than 10 years was 11,816 rubles. From January 1, it is 12,115 rubles. That is, per month minimum size pensions for pensioners living in Moscow for less than 10 years are increased by 300 rubles. As a result, it turns out that a citizen receiving a pension whose amount is less than the specified amount has the full right to receive a social supplement from the region.

If a person lives in Moscow longer than the established period of 10 years, then he is considered a native Muscovite and receives another form of social security. The total payment begins to be equal to the value of the city social standard. In 2018, this value was 17,500 rubles. From January 1, 2019 minimum pension in Moscow for pensioners who are native Muscovites, it is 18,800 rubles. And, if the pensioner is entitled to it, then he will receive a Moscow allowance every month. Compared to 2018, the increase is 381 rubles per month.

Non-working pensioners and some categories of pensioners continuing their working activities, as well as disabled people, are eligible for an increase in pension to the city standard. Pension increase in 2019 it will also affect the city social standard and will amount to 18,800 rubles. This amount becomes minimal only for pensioners who have lived in the capital for at least 10 years.

Eventually

As a result, the pension supplement in 2019 for non-working pensioners, as well as pensioners of other categories, will be:

• The insurance pension will increase in January 2019 by 7.05%.
• Payments social nature will increase by 2.4% in April.
• The increase in the EDV will occur in accordance with the inflation rate in February.
• The retirement age will increase in 2019 by six months, i.e. men - 60.5 years old, women - 55.5 years old will retire.
• The freeze on pension indexation for working pensioners will not be cancelled. The increase will occur only in accordance with the recalculation of pension points, but not more than 3 points per year.
• The minimum wage in 2019 will increase to 100%.
• The minimum pension payment should not be below the subsistence level. But such installations may not be fulfilled, since the cost of living is 8,700 and significantly exceeds payments.
• There will be an increase in military pensions in January, as well as additional insurance pensions for military retirees who are entitled to it.
• Children of unknown parents will be entitled to receive a social pension.

Pensions for non-working Russian citizens will be increased by 7.05% from January 1, 2019. Such figures are indicated in the main parameters of the budget of the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation (PFR) for the next year.

The new pension amount is also fixed for the 2019–2020 planning period.

The average annual old-age insurance pension will increase by 2020 to 14.9 thousand rubles against 13.2 thousand rubles in 2018, or 1.13 times. The average annual old-age insurance pension for non-working pensioners will increase by 2020 to 15.5 thousand rubles.

The social pension will increase from April 1 by 2.4%, in 2020 - 3.6%. Social payments will be indexed by 2.5%.

Indexation of pensions for working pensioners in 2019

Pensioners who continue to work should not expect an increase in their pensions in 2019, but only a recalculation limited to 3 pension points (the cost of a point in 2019 is 87 rubles). Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev talks about this. In order to resume indexation of pensions and receive it in the current amount, the pensioner must stop working or work unofficially.

The size of the fixed payment after indexation will be 4,982.9 rubles per month. The average annual old-age insurance pension in 2018 will be 14,075 rubles. From April 1, 2018, state pension pensions, including social pensions, for working and non-working pensioners will be indexed by 4.1 percent. The average annual social pension will be 9,045 rubles.

As before, in 2018, all elderly people whose pension is below the subsistence level will receive a social supplement up to the level of the official pensioner’s subsistence level. The main type of pension in the region in 2018 will continue to be an insurance pension. More than 90 percent of all pensioners receive it.

The topic of increasing pensions in Russia today is being discussed very actively at all levels.

Of course, in 2016 indexation was not carried out in full; in 2017 the increase was not as large as many older people wanted. That’s why many people are worried about whether there will be an increase in pensions in 2018 and by what percentage the payments will increase.

Some pension parameters for 2018 have become known today.

Pension 2018: latest news on indexation

The government has already revealed plans for indexing pensions in 2018, which means something definite can be said on this issue.

Pension increase in 2018: should we expect an increase?

The question of whether there will be indexation of pensions in 2018 can be answered definitely - there will be an increase. The question is by what percentage?

Let us remind you that in February 2016, pensioners’ pensions were increased by only 4 percent. The government promised pensioners a second indexation in the second half of the year, but it did not happen. Instead, pensioners were given a one-time payment of 5 thousand rubles, and even then in January 2017.

The authorities promised to index pensions in full in 2017, that is, at the inflation rate of 2016. According to official data from Rosstat, inflation in Russia in 2016 was 5.6 percent. As a result, in February 2017, the insurance pension was raised by 5.4 percent, and in April by another 0.38 percent.

By what percentage will pensions increase in Russia in 2018? Let us recall that Deputy Prime Minister Olga Golodets reported that the country is restoring the usual, legal procedure for indexing pensions - according to actual inflation. This means that in 2018, insurance pensions should be increased to the inflation rate for 2017. What this value will be will become clear by the end of the year. But plans for future indexing have become known today.

Indexation of pensions in 2018: by what percentage

As previously reported " Russian newspaper", from February 2018, insurance pensions were planned to be increased by 3.8 percent. This is indicated in the main parameters of the budget of the Russian Pension Fund (PFR) for 2018 and the planned 2019-2020 years. Accordingly, the cost of the individual pension coefficient (pension point), taking into account which insurance pensions are assigned, should have increased from 78.58 rubles to 81.57 rubles.

However, judging by the latest news, the situation has changed. Labor Minister Maxim Topilin recently told reporters that insurance pensions will increase by 3.7 percent in 2018, not from February 1, as usual, but from January 1. The change in timing is aimed at ensuring a more significant increase in real pensions next year, RIA Novosti reports. The cost of one pension coefficient will be 81 rubles 96 kopecks.

In addition, it is proposed to adjust the size of the fixed payment to insurance pensions, setting it from January 1, 2018 in the amount of 4982.9 rubles (an increase of 1.037%). As a result, the average annual old-age insurance pension in Russia will increase in 2018 to 14,137 rubles and amount to 160.5% of a pensioner’s subsistence level.

Why has the indexation percentage decreased slightly? But because inflation in Russia is decreasing faster than planned. Until recently, the inflation forecast for 2017 was 3.7 - 3.8%, but now the data has changed. It is now expected that inflation in 2017, according to official data, will be only 3.2%, and, accordingly, pensions will rise even more than prices.

Let us remind you what increase in pension is planned for the future. In 2019 and 2020, the old-age pension will increase by 4 percent per year, said Alexander Kurtin, deputy chairman of the board of the Russian Pension Fund (PFR). Rossiyskaya Gazeta also wrote about this

Pensions for working pensioners in 2017 - 2018

Unfortunately, there is not much to please working pensioners.

Working pensioners will not have their pensions indexed in February 2018. And in the next couple of years, they may not expect indexation of their pensions if they work during this period.

Let us remind you that in accordance with current legislation, starting from 2016, planned indexation of the insurance pension and the fixed payment to it, carried out on February 1, does not apply to working pensioners. For a pension increase to occur, you must quit your job.

But in August 2018, working pensioners will receive a traditional non-declaration recalculation. The increase in pension as a result of recalculation is individual in nature and depends on the amount of insurance contributions that the employer paid to the Pension Fund for a working pensioner in 2017.

Pension increase from April 1, 2018: by how much?

State pension pensions, including social ones, will be increased from April 1, 2018 for both working and non-working pensioners. How much? But this is actually a good question.

As we remember, from April 1, 2017, state pensions, including social ones, were indexed by 1.5 percent.

It was previously reported that in 2018 social pensions are planned to increase by 1.2 percent. Deputy Chairman of the Board of the Russian Pension Fund (PFR) Alexander Kurtin spoke about this in the summer. And now other information is coming. Rossiyskaya Gazeta reported that the indexation of social pensions from April 1, 2018 is planned at 4.1 percent! Well, let's see what figure the State Duma approves. As soon as new data appears, we will inform you immediately last news readers!

Let us remind you that in the next two years, in 2019 and 2020, the social pension, according to the deputy chairman of the board of the Russian Pension Fund (PFR) Alexander Kurtin, is planned to be increased by 3.9 percent and 3.5 percent, respectively.

Let us note that, as before, in 2018 there will be no pensioners in Russia with a monthly income below the subsistence level of a pensioner in the region of residence. All non-working pensioners will receive a social supplement to their pension up to the level of the pensioner’s subsistence level in their region of residence.

Pension indexation calendar for 2018

Based on this information, you can draw up a preliminary pension increase calendar for 2018.

• From January 2018, the insurance pension for non-working pensioners will increase by 3.7 percent.
• From February 2018, other monthly payments to beneficiaries will be indexed by 3.2%.
• From April 2018, the social pension will increase by 4.1 percent.
• In August 2018, pensions for working pensioners will be recalculated, depending on their salary for 2017, but not more than 3 pension points.

Legislative decisions of the Government of the Russian Federation provide for an increase in pension and social payments every year. In December, the Pension Fund (PF) announced the indexation of pension accruals for retired citizens who do not have additional income from work. What will be the real increase in pensions for non-working pensioners in 2018 and when can citizens who have rightfully deserved a vacation be expected to receive such an increase?

What is pension indexation

It is known that pensions are indexed by the Government in order to implement nationwide measures, the purpose of which is to improve the quality of life of Russians and compensate for price increases. When talking about indexation, it is necessary to distinguish this term from the recalculation of pension insurance payments, especially since these concepts are often confused. Indexing affects exclusively non-working pensioners, and recalculation of accruals is provided for working pensioners.

If old man continues to work, receiving a salary; recalculation depends on transfers from his employer. Upon dismissal, all indexations that occurred during his work are taken into account and after 3 months the amount of pension benefits increases by the required coefficients. There is no need to apply for such promotions yourself. The territorial bodies of the Pension Fund independently carry out the calculations.

In discussions about reform, the State Duma believes that working pensioners do not need indexation of insurance coverage, explaining this by a shortage of money in the funded part. As a possible way out of this situation, to replace the frozen pension savings of NPFs, an application for discussion of the implementation of the IPC (individual pension capital) system is proposed, which would relieve the burden on the budget and increase provision for everyone.

Average pension in Russia

The average annual pension amount does not depend on the cost of living. According to calculated data from the Pension Fund of Russia, payments to old-age pensioners in 2018 will amount to 14 thousand rubles. on average, while today the pension subsistence minimum is 8,496 rubles. Through indexation, the Government of the country significantly reduces the difference between these indicators. Some older Russians receive benefits below the minimum subsistence level. Such citizens are entitled to special additional payments, which are also regularly indexed simultaneously with labor pensions.

Legal regulation

Supplements for payments to non-working pensioners in 2018 are established in accordance with the main legal documents in this area: the laws “On insurance pensions” No. 400-FZ and “On state social assistance» No. 178-FZ, which provides for an annual increase from February in fixed insurance payments, the pension coefficient and social supplements based on the consumer price increase index of the past year. This amount is set by the Government of the country, and the source of funds is the budget of the Russian Pension Fund.

The cost of the coefficient every year from April is determined by the law on the budget of the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation for the current and next period. To implement indexing in 2018 under a special regime, it was necessary to make changes to this legal area: a law was developed and considered by the State Duma simultaneously with the law on the Pension Fund budget. At the end of 2018, on December 28, the President signed the law of December 28, 2017 No. 420-FZ, which approved the specifics of increasing the insurance pension next year. The PF budget for 2018 was adjusted by law dated December 19, 2016 No. 416-FZ.

Increasing pensions for non-working pensioners

According to the new legal norms, indexation is provided for all grounds for assigning insurance pensions - old age or disability, loss of a breadwinner. It will be produced at an accelerated pace, taking into account the excess of expected inflation in 2018. The goal is to provide a more tangible increase in income for non-working pensioners in the new year. At the same time as the indexed insurance part, the cost of the pension coefficient (point) will increase.

The provision of social pensioners will not be left without an increase. This group of people includes disabled people, WWII veterans, certain categories of dependents and Russians who were unable to earn money by retirement age required amount years of labor (insurance) experience. For such categories, legislative changes clarify that the final material support of a pensioner citizen must be no less than last year(including social benefits for the current year).

The upcoming indexation is provided only for non-working elderly people, and working pensioners are expected to provide for themselves. They are scheduled to receive an increase based on the points they earn starting in August. Experts consider this approach not only erroneous, but discriminatory and socially unfair. Many pensioners work for a small income that does not cover rising prices, and are deprived of indexation. According to the law, after leaving work, such citizens wait 3 months for the indexed increase. In 2018, they will already receive an increase in benefits after dismissal from the 1st month.

Indexation percentage

According to the new law No. 420-FZ, fixed insurance payment increased by 1.037 times and its established size is 4982 rubles. 90 kopecks The coefficient is also increased by 1.037 times and is equal to 81 rubles. 49 kopecks The indexation value, amounting to 3.7%, is higher than the indicator for forecasting economic inflationary processes (2.6%). Currently, the consumer price index is 3.2%. For the first time in crisis years indexation of pensions for non-working citizens in 2018 was marked by a level higher than actual inflation (by 1.1%). The size of the increase in social security will be 4.1%.

When will the pension be increased?

Previously insurance (labor) pension accruals were indexed from February 1, but in 2017 the coefficients were replaced by a one-time compensation payment of 5 thousand rubles. The innovations of Law No. 420-FZ are not only recalculation, but also changes in payment dates. It was decided to increase the increase ahead of schedule from January 1, 2018 and once. The effect of the relevant rules on additional annual increases has been suspended until 2018. Federal beneficiaries will begin to receive indexed payments from February 1, the size of their increase takes into account the inflation forecast - 3.2 percent.

How the insurance part will change

As a result of the approved pension growth indices from January 1, 2018 (for comparison, data for 2017 are also shown) will be the following values:

Individual pension coefficient in 2018

The legal basis for pension provision is reviewed every year. In 2018, to assign an insurance pension to a Russian it is required seniority 9 years or more. To calculate pension payments, all the rights of a retired citizen are taken into account, converted into points: the length of his work activity; wage; employer insurance contributions. To acquire the right to an insurance pension, you need to have a total of 13.8 points. Such coefficients (pension points) have also been increasing since January, along with general indexation from 78 rubles. 28 kopecks up to 81 rub. 49 kopecks

Indexation of fixed payment

The slowdown of inflation processes in Russia allowed the Ministry of Economic Development to predict a decrease in the price index. Pension indexation funds have already been included in the country’s budget in a higher amount of 3.7-3.8%, which corresponded early forecast inflation. The government decided to increase the increase by 3.7 percent and make ahead of schedule for one month. As a result, the fixed payment is indexed by a factor of 1.037 times (in the amount of 4982.9 rubles) and the average annual amount of security accrued for old age is projected at the level of 14075 rubles.

Military pension from January 1, 2018

Former military personnel, like other persons with pensioner status, hope for an increase in state material payments and expect an increase in the so-called “reduction coefficient” for calculating their pensions. At the same time, the Government of the country decided to freeze the reduction coefficient and return to considering the issue of increasing it during the execution of the budget.

So far, along with the indexation of pensions for non-working pensioners in 2018, the provision of military pensioners is indexed by 4 percent. Their average increase will be about a thousand rubles, from 24,500 to 25,500 rubles. This will happen not from February, but from January 1, as for civilians. In addition, the President established that indexation should be carried out every year for military employees of the Prosecutor General’s Office and the Investigative Committee, with the establishment of a monthly additional payment for the rank. These innovations take effect from 02/01/2018.

The purpose of the changes is to increase social protection employees who resigned from the Prosecutor's Office or the Investigative Committee. Until 2018, military prosecutors and investigators were subordinate to the Ministry of Defense, and then they became part of the staff of the Prosecutor General’s Office or the Investigative Committee. As a result, there was a difference in the provision of such pensioners. The exact amount of increase for them depends on the rank (title) upon dismissal from the authorities.

Increase in social pensions from April 2018

The introduced amendments to pension law also affected social pension payments. Provision is made not only for the indexation of pensions for non-working pensioners in 2018, but also for working persons in this category who receive a social pension from the state. It will be 4.1%. The increase period is set from 04/01/2018. Social pensioners They will pay extra up to the subsistence level.

According to the state statistical service, in a number of regions of the country the minimum subsistence level of a pensioner has decreased, which, as a conclusion from the current legislation, entails a reduction in social security payments, but with the latest legal innovations this will not be allowed. It was decided that the total financial support of a pensioner citizen should be no less than last year (taking into account current additional payments and benefits).

How much will pensions be indexed?

Currently, over 4 million people receive a social pension. The growth percentage for them will be 4.1 versus 1.5 percent in 2018, and the average pension social payment will increase to 9,045 rubles, whereas previously social Security from the state there were 8,700 rubles. The pension increase in 2018 for non-working pensioners of this group will be carried out in the spring of the coming financial period: these pensioners are included in the 2nd stage of indexing.

Indexation of social benefits for disabled people

The state also pays social pensions to disabled people, who are also scheduled for an increase. Such indexing will be carried out according to the characteristics of disability assignment. So, some people receive 15,000-16,000 rubles, and there are many who do not required experience, which have only 5000-6000 rubles. These disabled people with incomes below the subsistence level are entitled to additional social protection.

Social pension payments indexed by 4.1% (for comparison: in 2018 the increase was 1.5 percent). Thus, the average pension for disabled people of the 1st group. from childhood or a disabled child in 2018 will reach 13,699 rubles against the previous 13,026 rubles. It is important that this coefficient is also higher than the predicted inflation level. The size of the final social assistance supplement depends on the group and the reason for receiving disability (see table above).
