ANSES Raises February Pensions 2.8% as $70,000 Bonus Stays Frozen
The CPI-linked mobility update sets new base amounts, with a fixed reinforcement tempering real gains for minimum beneficiaries.
Overview
- The base minimum pension rises to $359,079.70 and, with the unchanged $70,000 reinforcement, no minimum beneficiary will receive less than $429,079.70 in February.
- The maximum pension climbs to about $2,416,270, while PUAM reaches a base of $287,263.76 ($357,263.76 with the bonus) and PNC moves to $251,355.79 ($321,355.79 with the bonus).
- Beneficiaries above the minimum but below the $429,079.70 floor will receive a proportional top-up to reach that guaranteed total.
- February payments start on Monday, Feb. 9, follow the usual DNI-ending schedule, pause for Carnival on Feb. 16–17, and resume on Feb. 18.
- The same 2.8% applies to AUH, AUE and family allowances, lifting AUH to $129,032.50 and AUH for a child with disability to $420,148.74, with SUAF first tranche at $64,522.42 per child; ANSES will also update income caps for eligibility and notes deductions like PAMI apply to the base without the bonus.
