Russia Sets December Pension Recalculation for New November Entitlements

Officials say the Social Fund will apply the changes automatically once November records are posted.

Overview

  • Recalculations cover people who turned 80, obtained first‑group disability status, stopped working, gained non‑working dependents, or saw regional coefficients change in November.
  • For those who turned 80 in November, the fixed component of the insurance pension doubles from 8,907.70 to 17,815.40 rubles starting in December.
  • First‑group disability triggers a doubled fixed part and a monthly care supplement of 1,314 rubles for insurance pensions or 1,377 rubles for state pensions, with Far North coefficients applied where relevant.
  • Pensioners who left employment in November will receive full payments with all missed indexations from December, processed without applications and with back pay if employer data arrive late.
  • Supplements for new dependents are 2,969 rubles for one, 5,938 for two, and 8,907 for three, while experts note the 80‑plus increase applies to insurance old‑age pensions and does not extend to social, survivor, or childhood‑disability pensions.
