The appointment of an early pension to citizens recognized as unemployed. Early retirement pension for unemployed citizens. General information about early retirement

29.09.2019

Many citizens are wondering whether it is possible to get a pension early. The law provides for many categories of the population (namely 30) who can claim such a right. In order for the registration of a pension to proceed correctly and without unforeseen situations, it is worth using the recommendations of specialists described below and preparing a package of necessary documentation.

Who is eligible for such a pension?

In accordance with the law, anyone who wishes can apply for a labor pension ahead of schedule. But in practice, this right can be exercised only in the following cases:

An early pension is assigned to those citizens whose retirement age will come no later than 2 years later.
The retiring person must be officially recognized as unemployed (must register at an employment center).
A person who is applying for early retirement due to health conditions. To obtain it, you will need to provide a medical certificate confirming the presence of diseases that interfere with the performance of work duties.
It is possible to issue an early retirement pension only if you have an appropriate length of service. For men, it should be 25 years old, but women will be able to count on pension accruals after 20 years of work.

The nuances of receiving a pension: age limits and possible reasons for refusal

If a citizen does not work, then a pension will be assigned to him only if he reaches a certain age:

women aged 53 years, whose insurance record is not less than 20 years,
men 58 years old with 25 years of experience.

Making out early retirement, you can get a refusal. This happens in the following cases:

The dismissal was due to the reduction or complete liquidation of the enterprise.
Repeated refusal of vacancies that were offered by the employment center.
The submission of the application coincided with a period of suspension or reduction of payments due to unemployment.

What documents do you need to prepare?

Before applying for an early retirement pension for a reduction or for other reasons, you will need to collect a certain package of documents:

Identity document - passport.
Labor book, which indicates the article in accordance with which the dismissal took place.
A document that certifies the qualifications of the employee.
Certificate issued from the last place of employment, which contains data on average earnings for the last 3 months.

If an early registration of a pension is required for health reasons or for the harmfulness of the profession, then it is additionally required to submit a medical opinion and other documentation provided for by law.

Registration procedure

If a question arises about how you can apply for a pension early, you should proceed according to the following scheme:

After visiting the employment center, you need to take an application about the desire to retire early (2 copies). It must be accompanied by a certificate of the time of issue. This document is sent to the Pension Fund within 7 working days.
Such a statement will be valid for 1 month. The only exceptions are those who are temporarily disabled. In such a situation, an additional confirmation certificate is provided, which will extend the validity of the application.
From the moment the application is drawn up, the person will no longer receive unemployment benefits.
After a month after the submission of all documentation, the Pension Fund will assign a retirement pension, to which an unemployed person who previously received financial payments due to disability will be transferred. Further, the employees of the Pension Fund will make a decision on issuing an old-age pension, the result of which is sent to the employment center within five working days.
After receiving the notification, the CPC removes the status of the unemployed from the citizen. And after the retirement pension is calculated, financial assistance for unemployment will also stop. However, the center will pay the benefit for 7 days (this is the period from the moment the application is received and it is submitted to the Pension Fund).
Men who are 60 years old and women 55 years old receive a labor pension from the Pension Fund for health reasons, occupational hazards and other reasons. Citizens, until these age limits are reached, are paid by the CPC.

If the question arises as to whether it is possible to apply for a pension early in the event of a reduction, then the application procedure and the accrual process itself will be similar to the scheme described above.

Early retirement is also possible if a person has a harmful profession. As a rule, employees of the locomotive economy, teachers, medical staff, drivers of public transport, etc. fall under this category. The work of such people is accompanied by constant stress, which causes early disability. Also, the right to benefits can be obtained by citizens who work in heavy production, perform underground work or work in the Far North.

An early pension for the unemployed is assigned as monetary support to citizens who have lost the opportunity to earn a living. It belongs to the list of special state benefits and allowances. This pension option involves going on vacation earlier than the prescribed age limit.

Early retirement pension for the unemployed: conditions

An early retirement pension for the unemployed is issued if the person is a citizen of the Russian Federation. The fact that as a result of which he became unemployed must be officially confirmed by the state authorities. On the basis of this, the person receives funds provided at a fixed frequency.

Any citizen who has been engaged in labor activities during his life will be able to receive a retirement pension. In this case, the minimum period of employment is taken into account. This figure is five years. But in some cases, a person gets the opportunity to go to rest ahead of time.

Lack of work is checked by employees of the employment service. They confirm that the citizen has:

there is no official job or an option to receive funds;
there is a posted job search vacancy;
there is a desire to find a suitable place of work.

The impossibility of employment of a citizen is confirmed if there is no place of employment suitable for him.

If a citizen has lost his job for this reason, it is checked how weighty the reasons for this event are. An early retirement pension is granted if a person meets the minimum conditions:

work experience for a female - from twenty years, for a male - from twenty-five years;
a sufficient number of personal account points;
there is a certificate confirming that a person can go on vacation ahead of time.

Interesting Facts! At the same time, it is taken into account that a citizen has less than 24 months left before retirement, and he himself agrees to such a decision. If one of the above points is not met, the assignment of an early pension to unemployed citizens is not made.

How to early retire an unemployed person

A citizen has the right to receive a pension earlier if he does not have a job, and there are less than 24 months left before reaching retirement age. The Employment Center is responsible for assigning the pension.

The decision is made in the event that further employment of a person is not possible. In this case, it is taken into account that it is precisely the early registration of the pension that is carried out when the employee is laid off.

Another reason for a positive decision is the difficulties with training for advanced training experienced by an employee who has almost reached retirement age. In this case, the citizen independently makes a similar request, which the Pension Fund can satisfy.

Before retirement early on reduction, the Pension Fund is provided with a certificate of impossibility of employment and a package of documents, consisting of:

an inquiry drawn up by the most unemployed;
passports;
insurance number of an individual personal account;
work book (see);
certificates of average earnings (see).

Interesting Facts! The request is submitted to any branch, regardless of place of residence. It states the desire and the reason why the allowance may be granted. After satisfying the request, the citizen is no longer on the list of unemployed, and he is provided with an early pension in case of reduction.

Amount of payments in 2018

In connection with the increased number of reductions, early registration of pensions for unemployed citizens can be made within two months after the loss of a job (see). If a person cannot find a job, he / she is provided with benefits throughout the year. Funds begin to accrue from the moment of application. The standard size of such an allowance for unemployed people is 4820 rubles.

Refusal of appointment or termination of payment

A person may be denied the appointment of such benefits if:

his work experience is below the minimum level;
early retirement in case of redundancy took place earlier than two years before reaching retirement age;
the full package of necessary documents was not provided.

The request may be refused for other reasons.

Interesting Facts! A complaint about refusal can be considered in court.

Payments stop if:

a citizen started working again - a person independently reports the fact of employment (if this is not done, he will have to face administrative responsibility and fines);
the person has reached the state retirement age and can receive a standard pension.

The maximum period during which this type of benefit is paid is two years.

APPOINTMENT OF EARLY PENSION FOR UNEMPLOYED CITIZENS

Employment service bodies can offer unemployed citizens to issue a pension early (the right to assign an early pension to unemployed citizens is established by clause 2 of article 322 of the RF Law of April 19, 1991 No. 1032-1 "On employment in the Russian Federation").

The main conditions for obtaining a pension in such cases are:

Recognition of a citizen as unemployed in accordance with the established procedure;

The lack of employment opportunities for a citizen by the employment service;

Dismissal of a citizen in connection with the liquidation of the organization, reduction in the number or staff of employees;

An unemployed citizen has insurance experience of at least 25 years for men and 20 years for women, as well as in the relevant types of work, which gives the right to early assignment of an old-age labor pension;

Pensions are delivered at the request of pensioners through postal organizations, credit organizations and other organizations involved in the delivery of pensions. The pensioner has the right to choose, at his own discretion, the organization that carries out the delivery, and notify the territorial body of the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation in writing.

The amount of early retirement pension

For citizens eligible for the establishment of an early old-age pension, the amount of such a pension is determined similarly to the size of the labor old-age pension and depends on the total amount of insurance contributions received by the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation for the insured person, and on the amount and pension rights acquired before January 1, 2002 of the year. As well as for labor pensions, all indexations of labor pensions will be applied to early retirement of the unemployed.

Elderly citizens find it difficult to re-employ after the liquidation of the enterprise or planned layoffs. In such cases, the law provides for the possibility of receiving an early retirement pension. The payment can be issued by citizens of pre-retirement age for whom the Employment Center cannot find a job.

Retirement before retirement age

It is difficult and often impractical to retrain a senior citizen, therefore the Employment Center tries to find him a job in his main specialty or draws up a referral for early receipt of old age payments.

Requirements for retirement before the statutory age:

In the Center for Employment of the Population (CPC) there is no suitable vacancy for a specialist of pre-retirement age.
The unemployed person signed an agreement for early assignment of pension benefits.
An early retirement pension is prescribed by law in the event of a layoff, liquidation or bankruptcy of an enterprise. If the reason for the dismissal was a misconduct or the desire of an employee, a citizen can only apply for unemployment benefits of a standard size.

Legal regulation

Russian legislation provides for the receipt of a labor pension by all citizens after reaching the generally established retirement age. For women in 2019, it is 55 years old, and for men - 60 years old. Retirement at pre-retirement age is regulated by the following federal laws:

No. 400-FZ dated December 28, 2013;
No. 173-FZ dated December 17, 2001;
No. 1032-FZ of 04/19/1991;

Conditions for early assignment of pensions to the unemployed

Confirmation of the status of the unemployed by the employment service. The certificate can be issued at the Center for Service Centers.
Impossibility of employment. An unemployed person can submit the refusals of potential employers to the CPC to confirm their position, but this is often not required.
Availability of the required number of IPC (pension points). In 2019, their minimum number is 11.4.
Availability of the required work experience. For men it is 25 years old and for women it is 20 years old.
Referral from the Employment Center. The document serves as confirmation that a citizen can retire ahead of schedule.
Before reaching the retirement age, a person has less than two years. In 2019, 53-year-old women and 58-year-old men will be able to apply for early old-age payments. By law, preferential cash security is not paid for more than 24 months.

How to apply for a pension ahead of schedule

The unemployed will have to apply to the Pension Fund (PFR) at their place of residence. Algorithm of the procedure for registration of a premature pension:

An unemployed person receives a referral from the Employment Center, draws up all the documents necessary to receive early payment.
Visit to the FIU. An unemployed person fills out an application and gives it along with a package of documents to a civil servant.
Consideration of the application. The FIU can study the documents submitted by the unemployed within 30 days. At the end of this period, the Pension Fund will send a notification with a decision.
Early retirement pension. The source of funding for early payments is the PFR budget. The amount of early retirement benefits is determined according to the same rates as insurance.

Recognition of a citizen by the Employment Center as officially unemployed is not always a guarantee that he will be able to retire early. When examining documents, the FIU requests information about refusals to a specialist for proposals from employers. If an individual does not want to work in his specialty, then the Pension Fund can make a negative decision on the application.

Employment center referral

The right to an early retirement pension appears for a citizen if he received a written confirmation from the CPC. In the direction from the Employment Center, it must be indicated that the institution cannot find a job for the specialist. The document is valid for 1 month. The CPC often refuses citizens to apply for a referral for unlawful reasons. Algorithm of actions in such situations:

Contact a lawyer, file a statement of claim.
Submit the statement of claim to the court at the place of residence. It is imperative to pay a state fee to consider the case.
The claim will be considered by a judge within 3 months from the date of submission of the application. With a positive decision, the CPC will be obliged to issue a referral.

It is better to immediately transfer the referral to the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation after receiving, and not wait a whole month, otherwise the preferential retirement will be delayed by its repeated registration. A respectful circumstance that allows you to extend the validity of the document is a sheet of temporary incapacity for work.

Unemployment is an integral part of the state's economy. Currently, there are frequent cases of liquidation of enterprises and reduction of staff. In such a situation, the state seeks to ensure the employment of citizens.

If this is not possible, unemployed people can count on financial support from the state. Also, citizens who have lost their jobs and are in pre-retirement age have the right to retire early.

What you need to know

A citizen of the Russian Federation who is officially recognized as unemployed can expect to receive certain benefits and allowances within the period of time provided by law. One of the measures of state support is the possibility of retirement ahead of schedule.

A retirement pension is assigned to every citizen who was engaged in official labor activity (the minimum period of employment is five years). Certain circumstances may lead to the possibility of early retirement.

These include:

Important concepts

Unemployed citizen	This is an able-bodied citizen who currently does not have a job or earnings, is in search of vacancies and is ready to start working. To obtain status, you must register with the employment service
Early retirement	This is a transition to a well-deserved rest earlier than the deadline provided for by law. To use this right, certain conditions must be met, one of which is the impossibility of a citizen of pre-retirement age to find a job. Raising children with disabilities and the loss of a breadwinner are considered good reasons for early retirement.
Labor pension	This is compensation to citizens of retirement age for wages or other income received.

Conditions for receiving

For early registration of an old-age pension, certain conditions must be met:

Official confirmation of the citizen by the unemployed by the employment service	This item includes: lack of work and income for a citizen; registration at the labor exchange; interest in looking for a job and willingness to start it (visiting the labor exchange on time and attending the proposed interviews)
Impossibility of employment of a citizen	Lack of suitable work at the Employment Center
Good reasons for losing your job	Downsizing or liquidation of an enterprise
The citizen has a work experience of at least 20/25 years	For women and men
The presence on the personal account of a citizen of the minimum number of pension points	For 2019, the minimum number of points is 11.4
Confirmation by the Employment Center of the fact that a citizen can retire ahead of schedule	Referral from the employment service
There are less than two years left until a person reaches retirement age	—
Consent of the citizen himself to early retirement	—

In case of non-compliance with at least one of these points, the early appointment of a pension cannot be carried out.

Applicable standards

Early retirement issues are regulated by the following legislative acts:

Federal Law No. 173 of December 17, 2001 "On Labor Pensions in the Russian Federation" establishes the amount and procedure for the payment of pension benefits.
Federal Law No. 166 of December 15, 2001 "On State Provision in the Russian Federation".
Federal Law No. 1032 of 19.04.1991 "On Employment of the Population" establishes the possibility of a special condition for retirement of unemployed categories of citizens.
Federal Law No. 400 of December 28, 2013 “On Insurance Pension Provision”.

Key aspects

If a citizen has less than two years left before retirement and at the same time he is unemployed, the Employment Center can offer him a pension provision.

Such a decision may be due to the impossibility of further employment of a citizen who has lost his job due to the reduction or termination of the work of the enterprise.

Another reason for this benefit is that it is difficult for a person of pre-retirement age to undergo retraining. The Pension Fund, taking into account all the circumstances, can agree on early retirement at the request of the citizen himself.

The procedure for early registration of pensions for unemployed citizens

To obtain this benefit, a citizen first of all needs to take a referral from the employment service. This paper contains information about the impossibility of finding a suitable job, and in connection with this circumstance, please allow the person to retire early.

The referral is transferred to the PFR branch, regardless of the citizen's place of residence. The paper is valid for one month. A good reason for extending the validity of the document is the presence of a sheet of temporary incapacity for work.

The PFR is considering the issue of assigning an early pension, and with a positive verdict, the status of unemployed is removed from the citizen and a state benefit is assigned.

Payments are made by the Pension Fund from the funds of the Employment Center. In case of refusal, the citizen can apply to the Ministry of Labor or file a complaint in court. An application for the appointment of an early retirement pension is possible.

Package of documents for registration of early retirement pension:

referral from the Employment Center;
a statement written by the applicant himself;
citizen's passport;
SNILS;
work book or certificate from the last place of work;
certificate of income of a citizen for five years before January 1, 2002.

The following information is indicated in the application:

the name of the body where the application is submitted;
Name of the applicant;
a request for the appointment of early retirement benefits;
grounds for registration;
list of attached documents;
date and signature.

In some cases, confirmation of the following facts is required:

lack of work for family members of a citizen or dependents;
place of registration or actual residence of a citizen;
change of personal information.

When payment stops

The amount of payments to the unemployed is determined according to the same rates as the old-age insurance pension. It is paid from the day the citizen applies to the appropriate state body.

A pension that is paid to a citizen before reaching retirement age stops being paid in two cases provided by law:

Resumption of labor activity by a citizen	In this case, the pensioner is obliged to notify the territorial body of the PFR about his employment. If this is not done, the citizen will subsequently have to reimburse the funds overpaid by the state. In case of further termination of employment, the payment of pension continues
Reaching a person of retirement age, in accordance with the legislation of the Russian Federation	After reaching the age of 55 or 60 years (for a woman and a man, respectively), a citizen needs to apply to the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation and apply for an old-age insurance pension. The application should be submitted in advance in order to avoid the lack of payments during the paperwork. Thus, the total period of early pension payments cannot exceed 24 months.
