In 2022, after 80 years, people can expect an increase in their pension. To understand how accruals will be made, it is necessary to study the features of payments.

The purpose of the increase

The decision on the increase was made with several goals at once:

• the opportunity to receive decent care;
• provision of additional funds;
• covering the cost of drugs, which are often needed more after 80 years.

Every month you can spend money on any needs of a pensioner. It is not necessary to pay for medicines or nursing services out of this amount.

Which part will be increased

The pension consists of 2 parts - fixed and insurance. A pensioner can only apply for an increase in the fixed portion. The insurance share will remain unchanged. It is not worth counting on an increase here.

How will the increase be assigned in 2022

Changes regarding the increase in pension will come into force on January 1, 2022. The state will automatically assign an increase to people who have reached the age of 80. The FIU staff, based on the available data, will carry out the recalculation on their own.

Pensioners with a category I disability cannot apply for an age increase. Their benefit increases earlier.

You can count on the increase from the month following the one in which the birthday was. For example, a pensioner turned 80 in April. In May, he should already receive an increased allowance. You should pay attention to this.

If the increase was not calculated automatically, the pensioner can contact the FIU with a question. You can do this yourself, with the help of a representative or through the State Service portal. Information is sent to the department of the Pension Fund confirming the pensioner's right to receive an increase.

Why they may not add an increase

If in 2022 the increase in pension after 80 years is not calculated automatically, there may be several reasons:

• there was a failure in the system;
• the pensioner receives a social, not an insurance payment;
• there are other types of pension supplements that are not cumulative with the age increase;
• the pensioner does not have enough rights to receive the supplement.

If the pension upon reaching the age of 80 was not accrued automatically, you should contact the PFR office for advice.

Who is entitled to an increase

Not all persons over 80 years of age can apply for a pension increase in 2022. Compliance with the age limits remains the main condition. You can apply for a supplement only from the next month after your birthday.

A pensioner must necessarily receive an insurance pension. It includes a fixed minimum part and a share received for work experience. People to whom the state pays social benefits are not entitled to a supplement at the age of 80, their increase occurs earlier.

Both non-working and working pensioners will receive an increase in their pension. For the latter, the indexation of benefits is not carried out until the moment they stop working.

What size increase will be in 2022

The main question of interest to pensioners: how much will they receive the allowances in 2022? The exact amount can be found closer to the month of accrual, since the amount of the age allowance depends on the fixed part of the insurance pension. What it will be in the coming period is still unknown.

Analysts have calculated a presumed indexation rate based on data from previous years. In 2022 it will be about 5, 9%. The size of the age allowance is 100% of the fixed part of the indexed pension. Consequently, a person who turns 80 will receive double the assigned share of the benefit.

For example, in 2022, a pensioner receives a state old-age benefit in the amount of 21 thousand rubles. Of these, the fixed part accounts for 6 thousand rubles. In February 2022, the retiree turns 80. From March he will receive 27 thousand rubles.

Calculations will be made as follows:

• 21 - 6 = 15 thousand rubles. - the size of the insurance share of the pension;
• 6 × 2 = 12 thousand rubles. - the amount of the fixed part of the benefit, taking into account the increase;
• 12 + 15 = 27 thousand rubles. - the total amount of the pension.

In 2021, the amount of the fixed part is 6044, 48 rubles. In the coming period, according to analysts' forecasts, this amount will increase to 6401.10 rubles. After 80 years, the pensioner will receive 12802.20 rubles monthly. The growth of the pension after indexation will be 713.24 rubles.

The amounts presented may not be accurate. The real size of the pension will be known closer to January 2022.

Is it possible to apply for a premium when receiving other additional payments

If a pensioner receives other allowances, he can also apply for an additional payment after 80 years. To do this, he will have to contact the PFR branch and write a statement on the refusal of other additional payments. If the submitted application is approved, the employees of the pension institution will make a new calculation.

You can submit an application in person or through a representative. It is better to do this in advance so that the time spent on checking documents is not wasted.

Outcomes

In 2022, citizens of the Russian Federation after 80 years old will receive an increase in their pension. Accruals will be made automatically from the month following the one in which the pensioner reached the specified age. If a citizen of the Russian Federation has the right to an additional payment, but it was not assigned to him at the specified time, it is necessary to send a request to the FIU. This can be done electronically, in person at the branch or through an official representative. The amount of the increase depends on the fixed part of the pension, which is doubled.
