Not all older adults aged 70 or older receive planned supplements, despite the law providing for them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The reason for this is restrictions on pension size, which leave some pensioners without additional payments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ukrainians who turn 70 are entitled to a monthly age supplement, but in practice, not everyone receives it. Stefaniya Ivanyugo, an 84-year-old resident of the Poltava region, reported that her acquaintances already receive supplements, but she is not entitled to them. The Pension Fund explained to her that the calculation was made correctly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The amount of supplements depends on age:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
from 70 to 74 years old – 300 hryvnias,
from 75 to 79 years old – 456 hryvnias,
from 80 years old and older – 570 hryvnias.
Pension expert Viktor Bogdanov notes that supplements are automatically accrued when a person reaches the appropriate age. If the birthday falls on, for example, August 20, the supplement is accrued only for the remainder of the month, which is approximately 106 hryvnias, and the full amount will be allocated in the following month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
However, the main reason why not all pensioners receive these supplements is that the pension limit is exceeded. If the total amount of all payments, including the increase, exceeds 10,340.35 hryvnias, then the supplement is not assigned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Bogdanov also emphasized that it is not necessary to contact the Pension Fund, since all accruals should occur automatically. But if a pensioner has doubts, he advises writing an official application for verification.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We also remind you that new checks have been introduced for pensioners: who can be left without supplements?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
