Mothers with many children are entitled to early retirement. On Friday, January 21, the Pension Fund of Russia (PFR) reminded.
Women with three children can expect to retire at 57, women with four at 56, and mothers of five children are eligible to retire at 50.
It is clarified that in all cases a woman must have at least 15 years of work experience, as well as a pension coefficient of at least 23.4 if the pension is awarded in 2022.
The required value of the pension coefficient is gradually increasing by 2.4 pension coefficients per year to the required from 2025 – 30.
Earlier, on January 15, financier Yulia Finogenova explained on what grounds Russians have the right to early retirement. Such a right, according to her, is available to citizens who have a long work experience: at least 42 years for men and 37 years for women, provided that their age is 60 years for men and 55 years for women.
In addition, people of pre-retirement age (no more than two years before retirement) who are unemployed for reasons beyond their control can apply for early retirement. They will receive unemployment benefits. A candidate for pensioners must have an insurance record of at least 25 years for men and 20 years for women, or the required number of pension coefficients for the year the pension is awarded (23.4 points in 2022).
As First Deputy Chairman of the State Duma Alexander Zhukov announced on January 14, the government commission on legislative activity approved a package of amendments on the indexation of pensions in 2022 by 8.6%. After indexation, the average pension will be 18,984 rubles.
On January 12, Russian President Vladimir Putin proposed indexing pensions above the inflation rate by 8.6%. At a meeting with members of the government, the head of state noted that the decisions taken earlier would not be able to cover the expenses of pensioners due to inflation.
The next day, Speaker of the Federation Council Valentina Matvienko said that the indexation of pensions by 8.6% for non-working pensioners will be issued from January 1, 2022, regardless of when the relevant law is adopted.
