Allowances

In addition to the insurance part, if there is work experience, the total amount of pension provision for an individual may be supplemented by other allowances. These could be monthly cash payments (MCB), which are received by those who have refused a set of social services in kind. The main areas included in the Tax Code, which can pay in the form of a financial equivalent, are the following:

provision of necessary medicines and medical products;
sanatorium and resort provision with vouchers to medical and health institutions;
free travel to and from the treatment site.

How to apply

In order to apply for state social security, you must complete the following steps:

Obtain official confirmation of disability. This process is carried out by the federal structures of the ITU, with their help the category of a pensioner is established.
Collect a package of documents and prepare an application.
Provide the necessary papers to the Pension Fund (persons who have traveled abroad or do not have registration should contact the central office at the address - Moscow, Shabolovka
The registration period is 10 days from the date of submission of the full package of documents, and the pension for disabled people will be calculated from the date of submission of the application.

How to determine the moment of accrual?

Even after a certain citizen has received a disability of a certain group, he should not expect that the pension will come automatically, because it still needs to be issued (how to apply for a disability pension?). Unfortunately, no one keeps track of who lost their ability to work and when, and no one assigns support to everyone in need offline.

In order for payments to be accrued to a newly disabled person, you must contact the Pension Fund office located at your place of residence. Only after the pension fund considers the citizen’s application, makes a positive decision, and then notifies the applicant about this, the security is credited to the account of the disabled pensioner and its payment begins on a monthly basis. Read about who pays the disability pension here, and here you can find out how these payments are calculated.

The assignment of a disability pension occurs in full compliance with Federal Law No. 166 , which regulates pension provision of the state variety. If the application is refused for some reason, then this is a reason to file a complaint against specific employees of this institution.

At the same time, not only a pension is issued in this way, but also a monthly payment, which can be accrued from the moment the corresponding application is submitted to the Pension Fund (we talked about the amount of the monthly disability payment in this article).

Conditions for awarding a disability insurance pension

If, in order to receive social security, it is enough that a disability has been established, then in order to calculate payments under the insurance scheme, it is mandatory to have length of service (at the same time, this type of pension is established regardless of the duration of work). In addition, this pension option will depend on the size of the fixed benefit, which is influenced by the following factors:

I, II or III disability group assigned to the citizen;
presence of dependents (disabled family members);
duration of labor activity in the Far North.

How is a disability pension calculated?

For example, see how to calculate the amount of disability payment if you have insurance coverage. When calculating, a special pension coefficient is used, which is formed due to length of service and transfers to the Pension Fund. The basic formula looks like RP = MF + FS, where:

RP – pension amount;
SCh – insurance part;
FS – fixed amount.

In this case, MF = PC x SB, in this formula:

PC – the sum of accumulated pension coefficients;
SB - the cost of one point (in 2021 - 78.28 rubles).

This can be seen in a specific example: the cause of group I disability for a person with 10 years of insurance experience is an industrial injury. It is necessary to calculate the amount of government payment if the sum of points is 27.6. Substitute the values and find out how much you need to pay:

SP = 78.28 rub. x 27.6 = 2160.53 rub.
Since the fixed state payment for group I is known, then RP = 9610.22 rubles. + 2160.53 rub. = 11770.75 rub.

Pension amount

The average amount of pension payments for 1-GI is 9,500 rubles. At the same time, the amount of payments should not be lower than the subsistence level for a particular region.

If 1-GI has disabled members, the amount of pension contributions changes as follows:

1 dependent – 10,600 rubles;
2 dependents – 12,150 rubles;
3 or more dependents – 13,600 rubles.

The average pension contribution for disabled children and minor children with disabilities is 11,400 rubles.

In addition to basic pension payments, incapacitated citizens can count on a number of benefits, namely:

free receipt of medications (with a doctor’s prescription);
voucher to the sanatorium, including free travel to the location of the sanatorium complex;
travel by public transport;
issuance of wheelchairs and prostheses;
providing subsidies for utility bills.

Every year, 1-GI pension payments increase due to pension recalculation. In February 2021, it is planned to index pension payments by 6%.

The size of the pension increases if a citizen worked in cities with a harsh climate!

How to calculate your pension yourself?

To independently calculate your future 1-GI pension, you need to use the following formula:

It is important to know! Increasing the retirement age for civil servants

Pension capital/(1 month*180) + basic tariff = pension

The formula takes into account the pension capital that was collected based on the total of available contributions to the Pension Fund. The number “180” indicates the ratio of the insurance period to 180 months of waiting.

The basic tariff is the amount prescribed in Federal Law-213 dated July 24, 2009.

Suspension and termination of payment

The legislation examines in detail cases when the pension provision of disabled people may have restrictions. Payment of the assigned pension is suspended until the situation is clarified or the interfering circumstances are eliminated in the following cases:

if social security is not received for six months in a row;
when, within three months, a disabled person does not come for a scheduled re-examination;
when a pensioner leaves for permanent residence in a foreign country.

The pension will stop being paid if:

the recipient dies;
more than six months have passed since the date of suspension of issuance and the situation has not been resolved;
in case of loss of the right to the assigned security;
when a disabled person reaches age, to assign an old-age insurance pension.

At what age are labor pension benefits paid to disabled people?

When it comes to pensions provided to disabled people, the age of such comrades does not matter if it is not provided for by the wording of a specific category to which the citizen is directly related.

However, if we are talking about a labor disability pension, then it is paid when a person disabled for any disease reaches a certain age and immediately goes on a well-deserved rest. Disabled men can apply for support at 60 years old, and females at 55 .

It is worth noting that if a disabled person performed his labor duties in the Far North, then the retirement age for him can be reduced by exactly 5 years.

If we are talking about work in production classified as hazardous, then the retirement age is reduced by 10 years. Thus, a limited male person working in such conditions will be able to retire and receive decent security at the age of 50.
