What do you have to do to receive a retirement benefit? Common terms
Two types of conditions must be met in order to receive the benefit – common to all and individual. What are the first ones? A person applying for a benefit should:
- meet individual criteria,
- have been receiving unemployment benefits for at least 180 days and have a certificate from the office confirming this fact,
- be registered as unemployed,
- submit an application for a pre-retirement benefit within 30 days of obtaining the certificate from point 1.
- In addition, during the period of receiving the unemployment benefit, she did not refuse to accept employment or other gainful work without a valid reason.
Pre-retirement benefit and individual conditions. What are they addicted to?
In addition to the above, a person interested in pre-retirement must meet individual criteria that depend on other factors such as seniority, age or reasons for termination of employment. For example, if you have been terminated for reasons such as liquidation or insolvency of your employer, you must:
- by the date of termination of the employment relationship with the employer with whom you have been employed for at least 6 months (it does not have to be a continuous period), be over 56 years old (or 61 years old in the case of men) and have completed the required period entitling to an old-age pension, i.e. 20 years ( 25 years for men). Other situations include different requirements and time periods. If the employer has not provided the reason and legal basis for the termination of the employment relationship, the Social Insurance Institution, while examining the application, will start an investigation to determine these circumstances.
