Overview

• Eligibility is limited to retirees under the 1973 law who began contributing before July 1, 1997 and obtained a cesantía en edad avanzada or vejez pension with the required contribution period, while 1997‑regime pensioners are excluded.
• The aguinaldo equals one full monthly pension, described as 30 days, and the amount varies according to each person’s base pension.
• IMSS states the payment will be made during November, with the precise deposit date yet to be announced.
• Outlets note the deposit typically arrives in the first half of November, which remains an expectation rather than a confirmed schedule.
• No additional procedure is needed, as the deposit is made to the bank account registered by the pensioner.
