In Russia, the right to an insurance pension next year will be received by women born in the second half of 1965 – that is, who will already be 56.5 years old, and men born in the second half of 1960 – at 61.5 years. Marina Tarasova, Deputy Manager of the PFR Branch for Moscow and the Moscow Region, told PRIME about this.
According to her, for the appointment of an old-age insurance pension, it is required that several conditions coincide simultaneously: reaching the generally established retirement age, having the necessary length of service and a certain value of the individual pension coefficient.
As a reminder, from January 1, 2019, amendments to the pension legislation came into force in Russia. In particular, it is planned to gradually (until 2028) increase the retirement age for men – from 60 to 65 years, for women – from 55 to 60 years. Moreover, according to official statistics, the average life expectancy in Russia is less than 73 years.
We also add that on December 21, President Vladimir Putin extended the freeze of the funded part of pensions until 2024. The corresponding law was published on the official Internet portal of legal information.
The funded pension has been frozen since 2014 – deductions in the amount of 6% of salaries go to the insurance part: for payments to current pensioners.
