Double pension? It’s possible! Some seniors will receive it, but not from ZUS

Some pensioners can take advantage of their privilege and claim a double pension. The benefit is then paid not only by ZUS. Thanks to this, pensioners can gain additional money for their household budget.

The possibility of drawing a double pension is not available to everyone. It is paid only in a few specific cases. However, the mere right to receive a double benefit is not enough. You still need to submit two applications to the relevant institutions to receive a larger pension each month.

These seniors can claim double benefit. Two requests are enough

People who have worked abroad may be able to draw a double pension. If they have deposited contributions both in Poland and abroad, they will probably be able to take advantage of the benefit in both countries. In such a situation, an application should be submitted not only to the Social Insurance Institution, but also to the pension authority in the place where they worked outside Poland. If the person meets the required conditions, such as reaching the appropriate age and length of service, the benefit will be paid twice.

Double pension not only for people working abroad. It also applies in this case

Some people are also entitled to a double pension . If they deposited contributions to both the Social Insurance Institution and the Agricultural Social Insurance Fund (KRUS), they should submit appropriate applications in these places. They can do so when the conditions are met. You must be a person born after December 31, 1948, and have documents confirming periods of contributions to KRUS (20 years for women and 25 years for men). If the conditions are met and ZUS and KRUS receive the appropriate documentation, the applications should be approved. Thus, the pensioner’s account will be doubled.
