Overview
- Resolution 1/2026, signed by National Disability Secretary Alejandro Alberto Vilches and published on March 2, initiates the nationwide conversion and sets operational rules.
- The measure covers all non‑contributory disability pensions granted before September 22, 2025 and proceeds de oficio, so beneficiaries do not need to file requests unless contacted.
- Authorities will run interagency data cross‑checks and audits to verify compliance with the eligibility rules that applied at the time each pension was awarded.
- Cases will be classified into Universes A, B, and C with escalating levels of scrutiny, and any inconsistencies will trigger a notice with 30 business days to respond before possible suspension or caducity under Decree 432/97.
- Payments continue provisionally until the conversion is formalized, implementation is led by the new National Disability Secretariat within the Health Ministry after the dissolution of ANDIS, and the government notes it is acting without conceding the court’s reasoning while its appeals remain unresolved.
