Overview
- IMSS says it will publish the official adjustment early in January 2026, and the higher amount will appear in the February payment.
- Under Article 75 of the Social Security Law, IMSS pensions are automatically updated in line with the INPC calculated by INEGI.
- Analyst estimates based on Banxico’s year‑end inflation outlook and a possible 10–12% minimum‑wage hike suggest the guaranteed minimum could be about MXN 10,300–10,600, which remains unofficial.
- Because the guaranteed pension cannot be below the statutory minimum wage, Conasami’s January decision directly influences the minimum payable under Ley 73.
- Ley 73 covers workers who began contributing before July 1, 1997, with amounts computed from the average of the last 250 weeks and retirement age, and beneficiaries are not required to file any extra request for the annual update.
