Conditions for assigning a state pension
Each type of pension has its own terms and conditions of assignment. To receive government support, you can follow some rules. For example, study the latest editions of modern legislation. This will help you better determine your own case and ultimately gain greater opportunities for government support.

How is the pension calculated?
Calculations usually take into account 12 months of income and the number of years of service. You can calculate this yourself. For example, take into account the average earnings for the last year, along with bonuses and allowances, deduct sick leave and leave, including maternity leave.
If the minimum length of service has been completed, then state assistance will amount to 45% of the average monthly income. With greater output, another three percent will be added from the minimum for each year. The pension amount is limited to 75% of average monthly income.
How to calculate a superannuation pension
Calculation of due payments occurs in accordance with length of service. With a minimum length of service, which by law is 15 years, its amount is equal to 45% of the salary.
The maximum allowable amount should not exceed 75% of wages, including old-age or disability pension. An additional year of experience gives an increase of 3%, that is, beyond the specified minimum experience of 15 years.
In order to additionally receive a share of the insurance part of the pension, it is also necessary to have work experience in other areas after the appointment and registration of a long-service pension. At the same time, its receipt does not deprive the right to preferential payments to the fixed part of the insurance pension: based on age, the presence of dependents and disabled family members.
Possible supplements to the state pension
Such allowances are called additional financial support and are usually paid monthly along with pensions. The amount of payments is usually fixed and ranges from 500 to 1000 rubles, depending on the purpose. For example, disabled people, WWII participants, prisoners, blockade survivors, military personnel, and other categories of citizens can receive them.
For example, disabled people can count on EDV - monthly cash payments, which are indexed along with the pension. These payments are considered federal. The amounts are small, but for some citizens they can be quite significant:
- Disabled people of group 1 – 4044.49 rubles.
- Disabled people of group 2 – 2888.41 rubles.
- Disabled people of group 3 – 2312.20 rubles.
If the pension is below the subsistence level, then the pensioner will be given an additional payment up to the level accepted in the region. According to the latest data, the Pension Fund has counted approximately 3.3 million people who can receive social payments. They are regular, so the budgets allocated for these purposes are quite large. In addition to monthly payments, one-time types of assistance can also be received towards your pension. For example, the Pension Fund pays funeral benefits to all non-working pensioners. The size of the subsidy varies and in 2021 is 6 thousand 351 rubles. 48 kopecks
Disabled citizens can count on the care of their relatives, who will receive a subsidy from the state for this. These payments are a fixed amount and are usually provided to all citizens over 80 years of age. Today it is about 1,400 rubles. If the parent is disabled, then the amount increases to 10 thousand rubles.
Anyone wishing to relax in the sanatorium can count on compensation for the cost of travel. This payment, as many often believe, is due not only to disabled people, but also to ordinary pensioners who have received free vouchers from a medical institution. The PFR budget annually allocates fabulous sums for these purposes. For example, 4.7 billion rubles are planned for 2021.
Amount and possible surcharges
The amount of state old-age benefits for citizens affected by the Chernobyl accident is influenced by the established basic amount of social benefits. In accordance with Federal Law No. 166 Art. 17 disabled Chernobyl victims who have groups 1 and 2 are paid 250% of this figure. In 2021, the amount is 13,101.63 rubles.
Persons who work and live in the polluted zone receive 200% of the social pension.
State support for the military is determined by Law No. 4468/1. Its size depends on indicators in the form:
- official salary;
- rank allowances;
- additional payments for length of service.
The amount of state support for the loss of a breadwinner is regulated by Art. 43 Federal Law No. 4468-1 and constitutes 50% of the salary of a contract soldier who died from injury, 40% from illness while in the army.
Data on the status of the pension account can be checked on the State Services portal using the SNILS number
If a military man has served for 20 years, monthly allowance is calculated. The amount of additional payments is multiplied by this amount. The basic pension is adjusted by a factor set by the government.
Relatives of a citizen who served in conscription and who died from a military injury are paid 200% of the amount of social benefits, 150% of those who died from a disease.
As of January 1, 2021, this amount is respectively 10068.5 and 7558.31 rubles.
Additional payments for the loss of a breadwinner are assigned to disabled people of 1gr., dependents over 80 years old in the amount of 100 percent, 32% for children left without parents or who have had groups 1 and 2 since childhood.

New formula
The amount of state benefits is revised annually, which makes it possible to support people who are not able to survive on their own. The amount of payments to citizens with health problems is regulated by Federal Law No. 181 “On the social protection of disabled people in the Russian Federation.” As of 2021 it is.
Category | Amount, rub. |
Disabled children 1 gr. | 11903 |
Disabled children of childhood 2 gr. | 9919 |
1 group | 9919 |
2 | 4959 |
3 | 4215 |
Chernobyl 1 and 2 | 13101 |

The new system involves increasing the length of service to 15 years

- Local authority of the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation at the place of registration.
- According to temporary registration.
- At the place of actual residence.

The application date will be considered the day the application and documents are received.
In special cases, it is possible to send an application via mail or in the form of electronic document exchange.
How to apply for benefits
To receive support from the state, you need to send an application to the branch of the pension fund where the citizen lives or stays. You can submit it:
- independently or through a representative;
- by mail;
- through a multifunctional center;
- through the “Personal Account” by registering on the PF website.
Participants in the liquidation of the Chernobyl accident also receive state benefits

- about health, about diseases that are associated with radiation exposure;
- on participation in the liquidation of an accident;

Establishing payments from the state for children who were dependent on a citizen who died in service in the Russian army requires submitting along with the application a death certificate, documents confirming family ties and length of service, and a certificate from the place of residence.
Review period
After sending the application through the multifunctional center, in person or through a representative to the pension fund branch, specialists check the correctness of all documents, and a decision is made within a calendar month.
The most convenient way to submit documents is through the MFC
List of documents for obtaining a state pension
You can start applying for a standard pension a month before the age specified in the legislation. Submitting an application is accompanied by the preparation of a package of documents:
- Passport.
- SNILS.
- Employment history.
- Certificate of dependents.
- Certificate of earnings.
- Registration documents.
- Certificate of disability (if available).
- Papers confirming the fact of a change in name.
The content of the application is usually standard; pension fund employees or MFC specialists help to complete it.
Application consideration period
Pension Fund or MFC specialists very clearly monitor the rules and carry out personal identification according to all parameters. The submitted copies will be scrupulously checked against the originals, and an incomplete package of documents is unlikely to be accepted.
Review of documents involves their list-by-list registration with the issuance of a receipt indicating the date of acceptance. Specific deadlines may be provided for providing missing documents. Usually no more than ten days from the date of application. Studying the applicant’s documents entails the following employee actions:
- Checking the validity of the accrual.
- Evaluation of the information contained.
- Collection of information in the individual accounting system.
- Making a decision to assign payments or refuse.
The period for full consideration of the package should not exceed 30 days from the date of application. Therefore, pensioners are recommended to apply a month before the conditions for the appointment of a state subsidy.
State pension indexation
All pensioners can expect a non-periodic increase in their income and this process is called indexation. The state gradual increase in pensions is provided from 04/01/2019. Indexation depends on inflation and is carried out in proportion to the cost of living of a pensioner for a certain period in a particular region. When increasing each time, standard coefficients are taken into account. For example, to find out the pension from April 2021, you need to multiply the subsidies received by 1.02. In other years, this figure may be increased or decreased.
Thus, a large number of people can count on government support. When contacting the Pension Fund or the HR department, you need to take into account the legal grounds, but in any case you will have to take care of yourself. In modern realities, the assignment of pension payments is carried out not only by the Pension Fund, but also by the MFC. Both organizations must be contacted in person. Only disability pensions will be issued by ITU bodies; these categories of citizens will not have to knock on the thresholds of numerous authorities.
