Overview
- ANSES formalized August benefit amounts in Resolución 232/2026, applying a 1.89% mobility adjustment tied to June inflation and publishing a DNI‑based staggered payment calendar for AUH, jubilaciones, PNC and unemployment benefits.
- The government codified the extraordinary bonus in Decreto 686/2026 so qualifying retirees will receive up to $70,000 with August haberes and the minimum pension rises to $419,775.93 or $489,775.93 with the full bonus.
- Official headline values for August include a PBU of $192,028.32, PUAM of $335,820.74, a top pension of $2,824,694.49 and the updated minima and maxima now in ANSES tables.
- Analysts at ARCA calculate that only a narrow group of very high‑income retirees could face the Income Tax after the update because the differential tax floor for qualifying pensioners sits near the reported $3,358,207 monthly level.
- Recipients should expect standard deductions to cut net deposits—common items are the PAMI contribution, loan or judicial retentions and, for a few, Ganancias—and the fixed $70,000 bonus has not been indexed since March 2024 so its purchasing power has declined.
