Overview
- Only retirees whose pensions were consolidated under the 1973 law in the Cesantía en Edad Avanzada or Vejez modalities will receive the 2025 aguinaldo.
- The payment equals one full monthly pension, excluding family allowances and assistance, with deposit scheduled for November into the registered bank account.
- Pensioners under the 1997 law are excluded, as that individual-account system managed by Afores does not provide this extra benefit.
- Beneficiaries are urged to confirm which legal regime governs their pension using IMSS records or payment statements and to verify banking details.
- IMSS advises visiting a local clinic unit or calling 800 623 2323, option “Pensionados,” for guidance, with ISSSTE issuing similar recommendations.
