Peru Advances Contigo S/300 Pension to Early February After Heavy Rains

The move aims to prevent payment delays for low-income Peruvians with severe disabilities in areas under emergency.

Overview

  • MIDIS formalized the change through Executive Resolution No. D000015-2026-MIDIS/PNPDS-DE published in El Peruano.
  • The January–February payment for Padrón I is brought forward to the first week of February 2026, with outlets listing February 6 or 7, so beneficiaries should confirm the official date and procedures.
  • Subsequent padrones remain on the national calendar, reported as April 24/25, June 19/20, August 21/22, October 23/24 and December 4/5 depending on outlet.
  • The ministry instructed nationwide dissemination via official and digital channels and activated territorial teams to support users in districts under the emergency declaration.
  • Contigo provides a non-contributory S/300 pension every two months to people with severe disabilities in poverty or extreme poverty verified by SISFOH and without other pensions.
