Bienestar Pension Registration Enters Final Week With Dec. 13 Deadline

Officials signal inflation‑tracking increases with tougher beneficiary verification in 2026.

Overview

  • National enrollment for Adultos Mayores and Mujeres Bienestar runs through Saturday, December 13, using a surname‑based calendar at Bienestar modules operating Monday to Saturday from 10:00 to 16:00, with December 13 open to all letters.
  • Eligibility now targets women aged 60 to 64 for Mujeres Bienestar and people 65 or turning 65 in December 2025 for Adultos Mayores, and current Mujeres Bienestar beneficiaries move automatically to the older‑adults pension upon turning 65.
  • Secretary Ariadna Montiel confirmed a 2026 increase that will at least match inflation, with final amounts to be announced by the Presidency, while journalistic estimates place the bimonthly adult payment near 6,424 to 6,448 pesos.
  • Stricter application of operating rules in 2026 will allow retentions, suspensions, or permanent removal for duplications, falsified documents, failure to collect the card, inability to locate beneficiaries, or not claiming two consecutive bimesters.
  • Mexico City plans to expand its separate Pensión Hombres Bienestar to 200,000 men aged 60 to 64 in 2026 at 3,000 pesos bimonthly, with registration details to be issued by the local social‑welfare authority.
