ANSES Confirms October Pension Hike Tied to August Inflation as Bonus Remains Unclear

The mobility formula will automatically raise benefits based on INDEC’s August CPI, leaving the government to decide whether the $70,000 extraordinary refuerzo continues for October.

Overview

  • ANSES has set an October mobility increase of about 1.7 percent, calculated from INDEC’s August inflation figure and applied automatically to all pensions and related prestaciones.
  • The agency published a DNI‑based payment calendar that begins on 8 October for minimum‑pension beneficiaries and staggers disbursements through the last week of the month.
  • September payments are being executed with the 2.11 percent increase tied to July inflation and included the government’s extraordinary $70,000 bonus for qualifying minimum retirees.
  • The executive order that created the $70,000 refuerzo covered prior months but the government had not formally confirmed payment of that bonus for October at the time of reporting.
  • Reporting shows small technical differences in the mobility percentage (outlets cite 1.70% versus 1.66% because INDEC figures are used with two‑decimal precision), and ANSES will publish final, official amounts in its resolution before payments.
