Thousands of pensioners, still actively employed, receive bonuses amounting to 65,000.
In August, a significant change is coming for over 65,000 working pensioners living in Tomsk Oblast, Russia. The Social Fund of Russia's branch in Tomsk Oblast has conducted an annual recalculation of insurance pensions for those who worked in 2024.
Approximately 54,000 working pensioners will receive the new pension payments, which will be automatically credited within a month following the recalculation. The size of the increase in pension payments depends on the official salary of the pensioner, with higher salaries resulting in bigger increases, but capped at three pension coefficients.
This proactive recalculation is unique as it depends on the actual income of the pensioner, unlike standard indexing. The Social Fund of Russia has emphasized that the August recalculation is proactive, meaning pensioners don't need to take any action to receive payments at the new amount.
Pensioners can check their increase through their personal account on Gosuslugi by requesting a statement from their individual account. It's worth noting that, due to the specifics of the August 2024 pension increases in Tomsk Oblast, there is currently no explicit data or official statements available regarding the exact formula or details for these recalculations.
Regional authorities in Tomsk Oblast may also introduce specific adjustments or additional payments on top of federal pension increases. In general, Russian pension increases often consider factors such as inflation, cost of living, and government-set indexation rates. For working pensioners, the payment increases can differ from non-working pensioners, sometimes involving a phased or adjusted indexation due to continued employment income.
For precise and current information, official regional government or pension fund announcements should be consulted. If you need help with general Russian pension increase policies or guidance on where to find official regional pension updates, feel free to ask!
