Argentina Confirms January Pension Increase and $70,000 Bonus as ANSES Sets Cap and Payment Dates

An income cap tied to the updated minimum focuses the extra payment on low earners, with deposits beginning January 9.

Overview

  • ANSES applies the November CPI to January benefits, lifting the minimum pension to $349,401.58 and taking the total for minimum earners to $419,401.58 with the extraordinary bonus.
  • The $70,000 extra is confirmed for January and is paid in full at the minimum; it tapers for higher pensions until a total-income ceiling of $419,401.58, above which no bonus is paid.
  • Payments follow a DNI-based calendar starting January 9, with separate schedules for minimum and above-minimum pensions and for non-contributory pensions and family allowances.
  • The maximum pension rises to about $2,350,453.71 in January and is excluded from the extraordinary bonus.
  • Other benefits update with mobility, including PUAM at $279,439.45 and non-contributory pensions near $244,509.52, while the extraordinary bonus is paid outside the base benefit and does not feed future adjustments.
