Upcoming Pension Payments Canceled in May: Unexpected Change Indicated by Pensioners
Hey there!
Looks like some pensioners might experience changes in their payment schedules coming May, due to the lengthy May holidays.
So, what's gonna happen?
- Early bird pensions: Pensions, including insurance, social, disability, accumulative, and additional allowances from the Social Fund, will be deposited ahead of schedule, by April 30. This move aims to dodge potential delays caused by the holidays.
- Back to normal: After May 6, banks will revert to the regular payment schedule, hence no further delays should be expected.
- Post office pensioners: For those receiving payments through "Russian Post", no modifications will occur. Payments officially start on May 3 and run until May 25.
Here's what you should be aware of:
- Early payments are applicable to all types of pensions and allowances.
- No applications are required from pensioners, as the payments will be processed automatically.
- In case of clarification requests, your bank or the nearest "Russian Post" office can be contacted.
As you may know, these alterations seek to guarantee timely payments and minimize financial difficulties for pensioners during the extended holiday period [1].

For dates between May 6 and May 11, payments will be made on May 5-7 or May 10 (depending on the post office schedule).
