According to Russian legislation, pension provision unemployed citizen receiving a pension through the Pension Fund cannot be less than the regional subsistence minimum for a pensioner (PMP). Due to climatic conditions and differences in the standard of living of the population, this value is established for each region separately and is being revised annually from January 1. In 2019, its sizes vary from 7811 rubles. (Tambov region) up to 19,000 rubles. (Chukchi Autonomous Okrug) - see. It is noteworthy that the size of the minimum pension in Russia with an increase in the minimum wage (minimum wage).
If the pension amount is less than the PMS, it is provided in the form of the difference between the PMS and the amount of accrued pension benefits. The surcharge can be financed from the regional or federal budget. Unfortunately, Working pensioners are not entitled to social supplement, since their income also takes into account wages in addition to pensions.
February 20, 2019 V. Putin ordered to review the methodology for indexing pensions, not exceeding the living wage of a pensioner. Previously, indexation concerned only the basic pension amount, which caused the amount of the social supplement to decrease, but the amount actually paid to the pensioner did not change. The President proposed indexing pensions above the subsistence level, that is, bring the pension amount to the PMS, and then index it by the appropriate coefficient. You can read more about the President's instructions.
Until the end of 2019, each region has its own methodology for calculating PMP. However, from 2020, unifying calculations will be introduced. In connection with these changes, in some regions, the size of the PMP in 2020 (and therefore the size of the minimum pension) may either increase or decrease. But pensioners should not worry about this: according to the law, the amount of the already accrued pension, taking into account the social supplement they can't downgrade.
If the amount of income (material security) of a pensioner is less than the minimum monthly wage in the region, he is assigned a social supplement. It was introduced in 2010 with the aim of improving the material well-being of low-income pensioners. Only pensioners who meet the following set of conditions can count on additional payment:
Depending on whether or not the size of the regional PMS exceeds the value of the pensioner’s subsistence minimum established for the country as a whole (in 2019 it is 8,846 rubles), the pensioner may be set one of two social supplements towards retirement:
It happens that after the announced indexation of pensions, pensioners do not notice any increase. As a rule, social surcharge is to blame for this:
The fact is that during the year only the pension size itself is indexed, and the PMP level for establishing the minimum pension does not change throughout the year. In this regard, after the next indexation, pensioners continue to receive a pension in the amount of the regional PMP (in this case, the amount of the social supplement simply decreases). However, on behalf of V. Putin, this injustice was eliminated, and now pensions are indexed.
It should be noted that the social supplement to the pension is established only on an application basis. This is usually done immediately at the time of registration of the pension after calculating its size. However, in practice, sometimes the pension is less than the PMP! In this case, the pensioner you need to apply yourself with a corresponding application to the Pension Fund of Russia or Social Security at the place of residence.
Minimum pension in Russia in 2019 for non-working pensioners will correspond to the minimum subsistence level of a pensioner, effective from 01/01/2019 and calculated on the basis of the consumer basket for food and non-food products.
The amounts for the constituent entities of the Russian Federation differ significantly; they are shown in the table.

Note: On average, the country's PMS in 2019 was set at 8846 rub. according to paragraph 5 of Art. 8 of the Federal Budget Law of December 5, 2017 No. 362-FZ.
In January 2019, the minimum wage was increased to 11,280 rubles. In this regard, there were many expectations about raising pensions. However, they were all unfounded - from January 1, minimum pensions in Russia increased for another reason.
The minimum pension is related only to the pensioner's subsistence level (PLS), but not to the minimum subsistence minimum for the working-age population. Increasing the minimum wage does not affect the size of pension payments in any way, since this value sets the minimum level of income only for working population.
Thus, from January 1, 2019, pensions were increased only due to, and not due to an increase in the minimum wage. As a result, pensioners received This amount of additional payment is determined relative to the average size of the insurance pension in the Russian Federation (RUB 14,414 at the end of 2018). Accordingly, those who receive the minimum pension have not experienced a significant increase in payments since 01/01/2019.
In the Leningrad region in 2019, non-working pensioners are entitled to an additional payment to their pension up to 8846 rub.
The size of the regional subsistence minimum for a pensioner (8,846 rubles) is equal to the subsistence minimum for a pensioner in the Russian Federation as a whole (8,846 rubles).
Non-working pensioners whose total amount of material support is less than the regional subsistence level of a pensioner are entitled to a federal social supplement:
Amount of additional payment, rub. = 8846 – Amount of financial support for a pensioner
The minimum subsistence level for a pensioner in the Russian Federation as a whole is established to determine the amount of the federal social supplement to the pension.
The regional cost of living for a pensioner is established in each subject of the Russian Federation in order to determine the social supplement to the pension.
Only non-working pensioners have the right to a social supplement to their pension if the amount of their financial support is lower than the pensioner’s subsistence level established in the region at their place of residence.
Please note that local legislation may provide for certain conditions for receiving a regional social supplement to a pension.
The social supplement to the pension is established from the 1st day of the month following the month of applying for it with the appropriate application and necessary documents.

What amounts are NOT taken into account when calculating amount of financial support for a pensioner:

Regulations:
Residents of the Moscow region who have retired receive a minimum of 9,527 rubles. This minimum pension in the Moscow region was established in 2019; questions about bonuses and income increases are decided individually (this depends on the pensioner’s length of service and other factors).
The size of the minimum payments in Russia, according to the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation, amounted to 8,726 rubles. The calculation takes into account the inflation rate for the current year, prices for the food basket (minimum set of products) and the economic state of the country. Each subject of the Russian Federation has its own cost of living indicator, and social charges depend on it. At the request of the Ministry of Labor, a draft law on a unified approach to establishing a living wage for pensioners has been submitted for consideration by the Government.
Today the minimum pension in Moscow is 11,816 rubles; in the Moscow region - 9,527 rubles, in Tambov - 7,489 rubles. In Chukotka it is the highest - 19 thousand rubles. This is due to the payment to employees of the “northern coefficient”, special benefits (allowances), due to difficult climatic living conditions and difficult transport accessibility.
Two years ago in the Moscow region the pension minimum was 6,812 rubles. With the depreciation of the ruble in the country, prices have risen rapidly. The cost of living increased and amounted to 9,100 rubles. A situation has arisen where pension payments are below the subsistence level. The government was forced to begin paying compensation to pensioners. The minimum pension in the Moscow region was 9,527 rubles.
To receive an old-age pension, you need to reach retirement age, have sufficient work experience and the required points ratio (11.4). It happens that citizens work without drawing up an employment contract with the employer, thereby depriving themselves of their insurance coverage in old age.
The only type of payment for them is a social pension. Experience is not important here, but the age limit for men is 65 years, and for women - 60 (in the case of insurance - 60 and 55 years). In addition, the minimum pension in the Moscow region is paid:
In February, insurance pensions were increased, social pensions were indexed in April, and from August 1, it was planned to recalculate additional payments to working pensioners. Attention! There will be no indexation in 2019. People will receive wages and compensation.
The latter includes a fixed payment (RUB 4,805.11) and insurance compensation (depending on the number of points and length of service). The increase is given to those whose payments are below the subsistence level in the Moscow region and whose salary is less than 20 thousand rubles. The average minimum pension does not depend in any way on the cost of living. Its amount is 13,800 rubles.
The amount of preferential benefits for a disabled person is determined after a medical examination. Groups are established: disabled people of groups 1, 2, 3; disabled since childhood; disabled children. For disabled people of the 3rd group, the pension is 4,279.14 rubles, for disabled children – 12,082.06 rubles.
In the event of the death of the breadwinner, the federal budget assumes responsibility for financing social pension payments. Applicants for benefits include:
Since April 2019, social pensions are accrued:
The minimum pension in the Moscow region is 9,527 rubles. Those over 70 years old enjoy preferential state support in the amount of 700 rubles. This money is received by citizens whose income is no more than two subsistence minimums for a single pensioner - 16,978 rubles. Additional payments are also accrued:
For pensioners in the Moscow region, payments are possible in the form of:
If a pensioner moves from another region, he will be accrued a pension at the place of registration, but registration must be permanent, otherwise you should not count on recalculation. You need to contact the Pension Fund.
Before applying for benefits, many citizens are trying to find out what the minimum old-age pension is in 2019.
The concept of a “minimum pension” does not appear in Russian legislation, since the “minimum salary” at the end of a working career is determined by various factors: the level of inflation, the general economic situation, etc.
The state promises that the minimum old-age pension should not be below the subsistence level. In 2018, the average amount for pensioners (!) in the country was 8,615 rubles. It is expected that in 2019 the average cost of living for pensioners in Russia will rise to 8,846 rubles. At the same time, regions individually determine the lower threshold based on the subsistence minimum established by them and can make regional additional payments.
Thus, the minimum old-age pension in Moscow in 2019 is no less than 12,115 rubles. The rules apply to non-working pensioners who have lived in the capital for at least 10 years. At the same time, the capital’s authorities pay extra to those Muscovites whose pension does not reach 12,115 rubles. after indexing.
Similar systems operate in other regions, but local authorities do not always find opportunities to support pensioners. It is best to find out what minimum old-age pension is guaranteed by the state in the regional branch of the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation, taking into account the specific situation.
Let us remind you that it was decided to index pension payments to non-working pensioners from January 1, 2019 by 7.05%.
Another relevant question is: “What is the minimum amount of old-age pension if there is no length of service”? In the absence of work experience or lack of the above amount, a social pension is assigned. Since the beginning of 2019, its size is 5108.24 rubles. From April 1, 2019, the social pension will be indexed - 5304.57 rubles. This type of old-age benefit begins to be paid with a five-year delay after the person reaches retirement age.
The Moscow authorities approved an increase in city pension supplements from September 1, 2019. Sergei Sobyanin wrote about this on his VKontakte page.
“Starting September we are increasing city standard of minimum income for non-working pensioners up to 19.5 thousand rubles . 1.6 million Moscow pensioners will receive additional payments to their pensions, 44 thousand of them for the first time. The recalculation will take place according to the usual schedule in the first ten days of September,” the mayor said.
Recalculation of additional payments will be carried out automatically.
The news hit like a bomb! Now let’s figure out what’s what: what exactly was increased, by how much, and who will receive the increase.
As can be seen from Sobyanin’s words, this is not about increasing pensions, but about increasing the city standard for the minimum income of a non-working pensioner.
Let us recall that until September 2019, this city social standard in Moscow was 17,500 rubles per month. This is the minimum level of pension that a non-working person receives a pensioner registered in Moscow for at least 10 years. That is, now, since September, it has grown by exactly 2,000 rubles to 19.5 thousand.
But if the pensioner has been registered in the capital for less than 10 years, then this city standard does not apply to him, and the minimum level of his pension in 2019 is 12,115 rubles per month.
That is, those who have been registered in Moscow for less than 10 years are not affected by Sobyanin’s increase in payments. Their minimum wage remains at 12,115 rubles. It will be increased slightly only from January 2020.

How pension indexation works in Moscow
In general, the annual process of increasing pensions in Moscow occurs in the same way as throughout Russia - in three stages.
1 . As you know, the indexation of old-age insurance pensions for non-working pensioners in 2019 took place not on February 1, as many are accustomed to, but on January 1, as was the case last year. Vladimir Putin outlined the main parameters of the increase in his televised address. The President said that “in 2019, the indexation of old-age pensions will be about 7 percent.” On average, the pension will increase by 1,000 rubles per month.
The details of indexation were clarified by the Pension Fund. As follows from the press service of the Fund, from January 1, 2019, the old-age insurance pension for non-working pensioners was indexed by 7.05 percent. This resulted in an average monthly increase in the insurance pension by 1,000 rubles. Working pensioners did not receive this increase. But many pensioners were unhappy with the January indexation. After massive appeals to Putin, it was decided to recalculate.
2. From April 1, 2019, in Moscow, as throughout Russia, social pensions and state pensions will increase. Putin said nothing about them in his televised address. The Pension Fund itself outlined the prospects for the growth of social pensions in 2019. So, at first it was planned to increase social pensions from April 1, 2019 according to the growth index of the pensioner’s cost of living for the previous year, namely by 2.4%. But then plans changed. As of today, social pensions are planned to increase by 2.0% from April 1, 2019. You can find out more about social pensions
3. In August 2019, insurance pensions for Muscovite pensioners who worked in 2018 also increased. The maximum increase was the same as before - the monetary equivalent of three pension points.
Now let us recall the two types of minimum pension in Moscow.
As you know, older people in Russia cannot receive a pension below the average annual subsistence level for a pensioner in their territory of residence. If the accrued pension is less than this level, then the Regional Social Supplement (RSD) to the pension is additionally paid from the budget.
In 2017, the cost of living for a pensioner in the city of Moscow was set at 11,561 rubles. Thus, the minimum pension in 2017 in Moscow, taking into account the Regional Social Supplement, was 11,561 rubles.
In 2018, the cost of living for a pensioner in Moscow was set at 11,816 rubles.
For 2019, the cost of living for a Moscow pensioner is set at 12,115 rubles. Accordingly, this figure can be considered the minimum pension in MSC this year.
But this “minimum wage” is established for those pensioners - Muscovites who have been registered at their place of stay / place of residence in Moscow for a total of less than 10 years.
For Moscow old-timers, a different minimum pension applies. It is adjusted to the City Social Standard of Minimum Income.
An additional payment to the pension up to the value of the City Social Standard (GSS) is established for non-working pensioners and certain categories of working pensioners and disabled people registered at their place of residence in Moscow and having a duration of such registration of at least 10 years in total (including the time of residence in the territory annexed to Moscow) .
In 2017, there was no increase in the State Social Insurance Fund and the minimum pension in 2017 in Moscow for recipients of the City Social Standard was 14,500 rubles.
But in 2018, the size of the GSS was increased. Thus, the minimum pension for non-working pensioners with more than 10 years of residence in Moscow was 17,500 rubles this year.
Plans for the growth of the City Social Standard for 2019 have not yet been announced.
