How to get the insurance part of the pension for military pensioners. Recall that the retirement age is an achievement. The right to funded pension

Federal Law No. 156 states that all military pensioners are entitled to an additional payment from the RF Pension Fund. We'll consider:

  • what is a civil pension;
  • who exactly is entitled to the "military surcharge";
  • registration of a military pension and the necessary documentation;
  • how the payment is made, as well as the methods of issue.

What is supplementary pension

The state provides for the appointment of a "second payment" to a certain group of citizens, which is issued simultaneously with the main pension. The accrual of such funds is carried out by the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation (PFR).

A civil supplementary pension is a type of financial support from the state. This includes former military personnel who have worked for the required period in the Russian Army or in other law enforcement agencies, but continue to officially work in other areas, adding to their experience.

Example: a former FSB lieutenant, retired, got a job and became a driver. But there are several conditions for the appointment of civil awards from the state, and you will learn about them below.

Who is entitled to a civil pension for military pensioners after 60 years

Dear Readers! The article talks about typical ways of solving legal issues, but each case is individual. If you want to know how to solve exactly your problem - contact a consultant:

APPLICATIONS AND CALLS ARE ACCEPTED 24/7 and WITHOUT DAYS.

It is fast and IS FREE!

The first prerequisite is that a person must work in law enforcement agencies. These are pensioners of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the country, the Federal Security Service of Russia, the Armed Forces, penal services, bailiffs - all those who had shoulder straps with military rank.

And a few other conditions such as:

  • state registered with the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation;
  • the citizen has reached retirement age;
  • minimum insurance experience and PFR points;
  • having a disability pension or seniority pension
  • making pension contributions to the PFR from the employer (made every month).

Let us remind you that the retirement age is an achievement:

For all people, it is set in the same way, but for certain people, these indicators are reduced.

For example, those citizens who worked in the regions of the Far North were liquidators of the consequences of the Chernobyl accident. V.I. Lenin and so on.

This year, the minimum insurance experience is 9 years. The management of the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation promises to increase it every year, and this minimum will stop at around 15.

Points are equivalent units for establishing a labor pension, they were introduced to protect against inflation. A future retiree in 2019 will have to score 13.8 points. Their required number will also grow, stopping at around 30.

The size of the labor pension depends on the number of points and the time of official employment (length of service). The higher their indicators, the higher the assigned pension.

With an insufficient number of these units, the Pension Fund will not establish a pension - such citizens will have to rely on social benefits in accordance with the subsistence minimum of the region.

An old-age insurance pension is assigned to a former military man without taking into account a fixed payment!

How to arrange

To start receiving a "military pension", you need to apply to the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation by sending an application there. There are four ways:

  • personal appearance at the PFR branch at the place of registration or actual residence;
  • through the site pfrf.ru - using the "personal account";
  • by Russian Post;
  • hR department of your employer;
  • through the Multifunctional Center at the place of permanent registration or actual stay.

The application for the establishment of a "second pension" for the military looks like this:

The second option is more convenient - you don't need to go anywhere. In this way, the same application is sent, only in electronic form. A personal account is created (simple registration on the site). Click on the link, it is highlighted in the screenshot with a red arrow.

Try to fill out the application correctly: enter only reliable data without errors! If a citizen sends an incorrectly executed form, then the pension authority may refuse him an operation.

What documents are needed

Together with the completed form, the pension authority must submit documentation:

  • identification. Its role is played by a passport of a Russian citizen or a residence permit, if it is a foreigner or a stateless person. Other documents can also act as such: the employees of the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation will definitely tell about this in case of unforeseen circumstances;
  • a certificate containing information about the power structure, where the person was employed, when he began to receive a pension, if for disability, then under what circumstances, and so on. This also includes data on the time of work in the authorities and the facts of dismissal for length of service;
  • documentation informing about his work experience (work book, contract, certificates from the employer or government agency, etc.);
  • "Green card" - SNILS;

  • a certificate of official labor activity from a civilian enterprise, where the former military man worked after serving in the departments).

An employee of the pension authority has the right to demand other documents on top of the list. An employee of the Russian Pension Fund will definitely inform about this.

If a military pensioner worked before the onset of 2002, then he can submit documentation stating his average monthly earnings for any 5 years before 01.01.2002.

Calculation procedure

It is very difficult for a person who does not know all the nuances of pension reforms to make an independent calculation of the retirement pension. But it is possible, if we consider this algorithm in more detail.

Each month, the employer makes payments to the pension fund for the employee, deducting a certain amount of money from his salary. Of these, 6% is used to pay off insurance pension arrears.

The taxpayer (employee) has the right to make a choice:

  • or he will give all 16% to the pension authority for his future pension;
  • or 10% he will invest in the insurance program, and 6 - as a funded contribution.

The calculation of the additional pension for former military personnel and employees of law enforcement agencies is carried out according to the formula established by the legislation of the Russian Federation:

RP \u003d SPK x IPK

RP is a pension provision, its size. SPK is the price of one PFR point. It is considered on the first day of the appointment of the pension. IPK is the accumulated sum of individual points. Now 1 point costs 78 rubles 58 kopecks.

Approximate calculation. Alexander Ivanovich Nikolaev is a former employee of the Federal Security Service of the Russian Federation. He quit his job and has been working at the plant for 10 years - he maintains machines for 30 thousand a month.

Let's say that every year Alexander Ivanovich received 3.53 retirement points. We multiply 3.53 points by 10 years and get 35.3 points - this is for the entire time of his work at the plant. Now we count the RP: 35.3 (all bonuses) x 78.58 (the cost of one point) and we get 2773 rubles 87 kopecks.

There is an online calculator on the website of the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation, it will help to carry out such calculations. For this you need:

  • go on the website;
  • scroll down and click on the link "Pension calculator";

  • enter the amount of your wages there.

The management of the Pension Fund promises indexation (increase) of the second "military" pension.

How payments are made

The procedure for receiving a second pension by former military personnel is no different from the standard. Here are the main ways:

  • at the checkout of the post office. You can also choose home delivery if it is difficult for you to visit the Russian Post office;
  • through a bank, in cash or in the form of electronic currency (on a bank customer's plastic card);
  • any organization that also practices the delivery of pensions (at the cash desks or its employees will bring money to the pensioner's residence address). A list of such establishments can be obtained from the employees of the nearest branch of the Pension Fund of Russia.

The recipient, having made such a choice, has the right to change it at any time. To do this, contact the branch of the FIU where you chose.

Russian legislation provides for additional support for military pensioners who have decided to start working in the civilian sphere, having previously resigned from the security department.

It is possible to issue a second pension to such citizens if the conditions are met. To appoint it, you need to apply to the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation, submit an application, and prepare and submit the required package of documents.

The amount of this payment depends on the length of service in civilian work (the time of military activity is not counted) and the accumulated bonuses. The calculation is carried out in accordance with the established formula.

A former military man has the right to receive a second pension by choosing one of the methods of its delivery.

Video: Second pension to military pensioners

Federal Law No. 156-FZ, adopted last year, which amended certain legislative acts of the Russian Federation on pension issues, established the right of military pensioners to simultaneously receive a seniority pension or a disability pension and part of an old-age labor pension. Of course, this law was greeted with joy by pensioners-"siloviki". However, at the same time, it raised a lot of questions about who, when and under what conditions has the right to receive a second pension, how its size is determined and what documents must be provided to receive it. In this article we will try to answer them.

In the Russian Federation, citizens of a certain category receive a pension, being still quite young and able-bodied people. These include citizens who are entitled to a pension through various law enforcement agencies. When they receive a seniority pension, they usually continue to work. If the employer, in accordance with the current legislation, pays insurance premiums for these people for at least five years, this creates the conditions for the appointment of an old-age pension upon reaching the generally established retirement age (55 years for women and 60 years for men). Until recently, in relation to such situations, the provisions described in paragraphs 2 and 3 of Art. 3 of the Federal Law of December 15, 2001, No. 166-FZ "On State Pension Provision in the Russian Federation" (hereinafter - the Law on Pension Provision), according to which people entitled to different pensions - civil or military - could choose that pension which suits them better. An exception to these rules was made only for a narrow circle of our citizens, who were allowed by Russian legislation to receive two pensions at the same time (citizens who became disabled as a result of military trauma, participants in the Great Patriotic War, citizens awarded the sign "Resident of besieged Leningrad", etc.).

In connection with the numerous appeals of pensioners-“siloviks” to the bodies of the Pension Fund with the question of assigning them a part of the insurance pension, it was decided to submit the situation to the Constitutional Court of the Russian Federation. At the next meeting. the complaint of the applicant V.V. Naumchik was considered, according to which the prohibition on granting military pensioners the right to receive, along with the length of service pension, an old-age labor pension, which they earned taking into account the length of service required for its appointment, violates the constitutional social rights of those them who work under an employment contract and are insured in this regard in the compulsory pension insurance system, and contradicts the requirements of Articles 2, 7, 39 (part 1) and 55 (parts 2 and 3) of the Constitution of the Russian Federation. As a result of the last meeting, a decision was adopted on May 11, 2006, No. 187-O “On the complaint of the citizen V.V. for violation of his constitutional rights by the provisions of paragraphs 2 and 3 of Art. 3 of the Federal Law "On State Pension Provision in the Russian Federation".

In this definition, in particular, it was indicated that in order to ensure the implementation of the social rights of military pensioners working under an employment contract, the federal legislator should develop a legal mechanism that guarantees them, in addition to paying the state pension, the opportunity to receive the insurance part of the labor pension, taking into account the insurance contributions reflected on their individual personal accounts with the Pension Fund. The consequence of this determination of the Constitutional Court was Federal Law No. 156-FZ of July 22, 2008 "On Amendments to Certain Legislative Acts of the Russian Federation on Pension Provisions", which entered into force on July 25, 2008 (hereinafter - Law No. 156- FZ).

This law amended the Law on Pension Provision, as well as the Law of the Russian Federation of 12.02.1993, No. 4468-1 "On Pension Provisions for Persons Who Have Served Military Service, Served in Internal Affairs Bodies, State Fire Service, Control Bodies the turnover of narcotic drugs and psychotropic substances, institutions and bodies of the penal system and their families "(hereinafter - Law No. 4468-1) and in Federal Law No. 173-FZ of December 17, 2001" On labor pensions in the Russian Federation "( hereinafter - the Law on labor pensions).

So, at the present time, the right of military personnel (with the exception of citizens who did military service on conscription as soldiers, sailors, sergeants and foremen), who have reached the generally established retirement age and have at least five years of insurance experience, has been established to simultaneously receive a seniority pension or the disability pension provided for by Law No. 4468-1; and the old-age labor pension (with the exception of its basic part) established in accordance with the Labor Pension Law.

In addition, Law No. 156-FZ provides for the right of federal civil servants with at least five years of insurance experience to receive a share of the insurance part of the labor pension, set for the seniority pension, which they receive in accordance with the Law on Pension Provision.

Recall that the concept of insurance experience was introduced on 01.01.2002 with the entry into force of the Law on Labor Pensions and means the total duration of the periods of work and (or) other activities during which insurance contributions to the Pension Fund were paid, taken into account when determining the right to a labor pension RF, as well as other periods included in the insurance experience.

Conditions for granting a pension

At present, the old-age labor pension consists of three main parts: basic, insurance and funded. Law No. 156-FZ establishes the right of working military pensioners not just to a second pension, but to the insurance part of the labor pension. Simply put, for the part of the old-age labor pension that they earned after retirement in the security forces. This part depends on the size of their wages, insurance premiums paid by the employer and recorded in the individual personal accounts of citizens in the Pension Fund. The basic part of payments will be excluded, since its establishment is not provided for by this law. The issue of the funded component of the labor pension is at the stage of final decision. It is assumed that in the event that a working military pensioner entered into a legal relationship on compulsory pension insurance in order to pay additional insurance contributions to the funded part of the labor pension and pays these insurance contributions, upon reaching the established age and meeting all the conditions determined when assigning a labor pension for old age, a funded component will appear in his pension.

In connection with the entry into force of this law, the Pension Fund administrations receive many questions about who and under what conditions is entitled to a "second" pension.

Let's consider this situation in more detail.

First of all, the right to establish the insurance part is acquired by those military pensioners who receive pensions for length of service or disability through law enforcement agencies and continue to work in civilian institutions, being an insured person in accordance with Federal Law of December 15, 2001, No. 167- Federal Law "On Compulsory Pension Insurance in the Russian Federation". At the same time, the availability of preferential length of service among military pensioners (for service in special conditions: in a remote or special area, participation in hostilities, etc.) is not taken into account. The second condition is that a citizen must reach the generally established retirement age. And third - the person must have at least five years of insurance experience, which does not take into account the periods of service preceding the appointment of a disability pension, or the periods of service, work and other activities taken into account when determining the amount of seniority pension in accordance with Law No. 4468-1. In other words, before the start of service or after a person has been assigned a seniority pension, he must have worked for at least five years with the obligatory transfer of insurance premiums by the employer, which will be reflected in his individual personal account. If a military pensioner receives a salary unofficially and his employer does not deduct insurance contributions, then the insurance part of the labor pension will not be formed. Thus, the amount of the insurance part of the labor pension is directly dependent on the amount of legal wages and, accordingly, the amount of insurance premiums of a particular person for the insurance period. The higher they are, the larger the pension.

It should be noted that Law No. 156-FZ applies to legal relations that have arisen since 01.01.2007. This means that in order to assign the insurance part of the pension, a military pensioner by this time must already be a recipient of a seniority or disability pension through law enforcement agencies, he must have already turned 55 (60) years old and at this moment he must have at least five years of other (not military) insurance experience. For clarity, we present a question received by one of the Pension Fund departments (see Example 1).

Example 1

Retired question: in 1990 I was given a seniority pension. Until 2003, I continued to work at a state-owned enterprise. In 2005, I turned 60. From when do I have the right to receive the insurance portion of the labor pension?

Pension Fund's answer: The applied pensioner has the right to receive the insurance part of the labor pension from 01.01.2007. Despite the fact that the right to receive the insurance part arose before this date, the insurance part of the pension will be assigned regardless of the date of application from 01.01.2007.

Citizens who have acquired the right (have reached retirement age and worked out work experience) in the period from 01.01.2007 to 24.07.2008, the insurance part of the old-age labor pension is assigned regardless of the date of application, but not earlier than from the date of the emergence of the right ... And citizens who have acquired the right to the insurance part of the labor pension after 24.07.2008 (after the entry into force of Law No. 156-FZ), the pension is assigned from the date of application.

It is especially necessary to note those servicemen who suffered due to their duty as a result of the disaster at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant and other radiation and man-made disasters. These servicemen, upon fulfilling the conditions for the early assignment of an old-age labor pension, are entitled to receive the insurance part of the old-age pension until they reach the generally established retirement age. This provision applies to citizens:

  • listed in Art. 30-37 of the Law of the Russian Federation of 15.05.1991, No. 1244-1 "On social protection of citizens exposed to radiation as a result of the disaster at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant";
  • listed in paragraphs 1-7 of Art. 1 of the Federal Law of 26.11.1998, No. 175-FZ "On social protection of citizens of the Russian Federation exposed to radiation as a result of the 1957 accident at the Mayak production association and the discharge of radioactive waste into the Techa River";
  • exposed to radiation as a result of a nuclear test at the Semipalatinsk test site (clause 11, article 2 of the Federal Law of 10.01.2002, No. 2-FZ "On social guarantees to citizens exposed to radiation as a result of nuclear tests at the Semipalatinsk test site").

Calculation and receipt of the insurance part of the labor pension

The insurance part of the old-age labor pension (SC) is established on the conditions and in the manner prescribed by the Law on Labor Pensions, and is calculated according to the formula:

Where

Speaking about the calculation of the insurance part of the old-age labor pension, it is necessary to explain how the length of service affects the amount of the insurance part. For the period of work until 01.01.2002, the amount of the insurance part depends on the average monthly earnings and the length of service. Accordingly, the longer the length of service, the higher the insurance part of the pension. For the period of work after the specified date, the amount of the insurance part depends on the amount of insurance premiums recorded on the personal account of the insured person. The higher the insurance premiums, the larger the insurance part of the labor pension.

To assign the insurance part of the labor pension, you must submit an application to the territorial administration of the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation at the place of residence. Those citizens who do not have a place of residence confirmed by registration on the territory of the Russian Federation submit an application to the territorial administration of the Pension Fund at the place of their stay. Russian citizens who have left for permanent residence outside the territory of the Russian Federation submit an application to the Department for Pension Provision of Citizens Living Abroad, of the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation. An application for the appointment of the insurance part of the old-age labor pension can be submitted at any time after the right to it arises. The application can be accepted by the territorial administration of the Pension Fund before the onset of the right to receive the insurance part of the old-age labor pension, but not earlier than one month before the emergence of this right.

The following documents must be attached to the application:

  • identification, age, place of residence, citizenship (passport or other documents);
  • insurance certificate of state pension insurance;
  • about insurance experience (work record, certificate of work and other documents);
  • on average monthly earnings for any 60 months in a row until 01.01.2002 on the basis of documents issued in accordance with the established procedure by the relevant employers or state (municipal) authorities (in the prescribed form). 2000-2001 documents on earnings are not submitted, while by the Pension Fund bodies the average monthly earnings are calculated according to the data of individual (personified) accounting available in the PFR database;
  • about changing the last name, first name, patronymic (if there are specified facts);
  • a certificate of the law enforcement agency of the established form about the periods of service, work and other activities taken into account when determining the amount of the length of service pension or disability pension (see Example 2);
  • on the method of delivery of the insurance part of the old-age labor pension through the payment organization (post office, bank branch, etc.).

If, when a serviceman applies to the application for the appointment of the insurance part of the labor pension, he does not have all the necessary documents (including a certificate from the law enforcement agency) attached, then in accordance with paragraph 3 of Art. 19 of the Law on Labor Pensions, the body that carries out pensions provides the applicant with an explanation about what documents he must submit additionally. If the missing documents are submitted no later than three months from the date of receipt of the clarification, the day of applying for the insurance part of the labor pension is the day of receiving the application.

Is it possible to know in advance the amount of future payments?

As a rule, when citizens apply to the Pension Fund departments, they are more likely than others to ask the question of what the additional payment will be, whether it is possible to immediately find out its size. We can say that employees of the Pension Fund cannot give an unambiguous answer to this question in advance. The amount of payments is individual for each pensioner. The calculation is made by specialists after submitting all the necessary documents. Let's consider the main provisions on which this calculation is based.

So the insurance part of the old-age labor pension ( Mid) is calculated by the formula:

Mf \u003d PKch / T.

According to Art. 30 of the Law on Labor Pensions, the amount of the estimated pension capital ( PC) is calculated by the formula:

PC \u003d (RP - warhead) x T,

  • RP - the estimated size of the labor pension, determined for the insured in accordance with the current legislation;
  • Warhead - the size of the basic part of the labor pension as of 01.01.2002 (450 rubles per month);
  • T - the expected period of payment of an old-age labor pension, equal to the same period to be applied when establishing a labor pension in accordance with paragraph 5 of Art. 14 and paragraph 1 of Art. 32 of the Labor Pension Law.

The estimated size of the labor pension (RP) is determined for men with a total work experience of at least 25 years (300 months) and for women with a total work experience of at least 20 years (240 months), according to the formula:

RP \u003d SK x ZR / ZP x SZP,

  • ZR - average monthly earnings of the insured person for 2000-2001. according to the data of individual (personified) accounting in the compulsory pension insurance system or for any 60 months in a row on the basis of documents issued in accordance with the established procedure by the relevant employers or state (municipal) bodies;
  • RFP - the average monthly wage in the Russian Federation for the same period;
  • SZP - the average monthly salary in the Russian Federation for the period from 01.07.2001 to 30.09.2001 for calculating and increasing the size of state pensions, approved by the Government of the Russian Federation;
  • SC - the seniority coefficient, which for insured persons (with the exception of persons with disabilities with limited ability to work in the 1st degree) is 0.55 and increases by 0.01 for each full year of total length of service over the specified duration (25 and 20 years), but by no more than 0.20.

For clarification, we will give practical examples of calculating the insurance part of the labor pension (see Examples 3 and 4).

Example 3

A military pensioner applied for the appointment of the insurance part of the labor pension, age - 60 years, insurance experience - 5 years, total length of service for the period up to 01.01.2002 - 2 years. In this case, the Pension Fund calculates the pension capital as of 01.01.2002, after which insurance premiums are taken into account.

The seniority coefficient (SK) is: 0.55.

The ratio of the average monthly earnings of the insured person (W) to the average monthly wage in the Russian Federation (for the actual period of work) (W): 1.2.

Average monthly wages in the Russian Federation for the period from 01.07.2001 to 30.09.2001 (NWP): 1,671 rubles.

The estimated size of the labor pension (RP) is: 0.55 x 1.2 x 1,671 \u003d 1,102.86 rubles.

Expected payment period for 2007 (T): 144 + 5 x 6 \u003d 174 months.

The ratio of the actual experience (24 months) to the required (300 months): 0.08.

The size of the estimated pension capital (PC) as of 01.01.2002 will be: (1 102.86 - 450) x 174 x 0.08 \u003d 9 087.8112 rubles.

At the same time, the amount of the estimated pension capital (PCch) as of 01.01.2007, taking into account the indexation of pension capital in the period from 2003 to 2007. will be: 9 087.8112 x 1.307 x 1.177 x 1.114 x 1.127 x 1.062 \u003d 18 639.95 rubles.

The amount of paid insurance premiums: 125,000 rubles. Taking into account the received insurance premiums, the amount of the insurance part of the labor pension (Cch) as of 01.01.2007 will be equal to:

Сч \u003d PKch / Т \u003d (18,639.95 + 125,000) / 174 \u003d 825.51 rubles.

In the period from 01.01.2007 to the present, the following indexation of the insurance part was carried out:

  • as of 01.04.2007 - 825.51 x 1.092 \u003d 901.45 rubles;
  • as of 01.02.2008 - 901.45 x 1.12 \u003d 1,009.63 rubles;
  • as of 01.04.2008 - 1,009.63 x 1.075 \u003d 1,085.35 rubles;
  • as of 01.08.2008 - 1,085.35 x 1.08 \u003d 1,172.18 rubles.

A military pensioner applied for the appointment of the insurance part of the labor pension, age - 60 years, insurance experience - 5 years, after dismissal from the armed forces he worked from 01.01.2003 to 15.12.2008.In this situation, when calculating the insurance part, only insurance premiums. The total amount of insurance premiums for the specified period is 156,000 rubles. The size of the insurance part of the labor pension (Cch) as of 01.01.2007 will be equal to: Cc \u003d PKch / T \u003d 156,000/174 \u003d 896.55 rubles. Further change in the amount of the insurance part will be made by indexing in the same way as in Example 1.

In conclusion, let us note that the pension system is a developing social institution. It requires constant improvement and renewal. And the adopted Law No. 156-FZ confirms this once again. Pension legislation should be continuously changed taking into account the circumstances affecting certain issues of the implementation of the pension rights of Russian citizens.

Since 2008, military pensioners have the opportunity to receive one more benefit - by age. The changing norms of the pension system require clarification on how accruals are made, who can qualify for a second pension intended for military personnel, and what criteria are taken into account.

An analysis of the current legislation will help to understand when the right to military and civil pensions is granted at the same time, how to formalize it and whether it is profitable to receive both benefits.

Before the amendments were made to the pension legislation, the calculation of payments was quite simple. After completing the service, they were recognized as pensioners and, regardless of age, received an allowance from their department. The allowance was calculated until they reached the actual retirement age established in the country. At 60 years old for men and 55 for women, it was required to reissue documents and completely switch to the civilian type of payment, abandoning the military.

The legislative framework

The system has changed dramatically over the past decade.

The list of laws necessary to study the issue of the formation and appointment of pensions for military personnel in 2017:

  • 400 ФЗ dated 28.12.13 ("On insurance pensions");
  • 166 ФЗ dated 17.12.01 ("On state pension provision");
  • 156 ФЗ dated 07.22.08 (amendments to the law on pension provision);
  • 4468-1 FZ of 12.02.93 ("On military pensions");
  • 173 FZ of December 17, 2001 ("On labor pensions", used in those parts that do not contradict the law No. 400 "On pensions in the Russian Federation").

The military pension according to the law 4468-1 is due when leaving for the reserve for seniority or for medical reasons.

To prescribe benefits:

  • in terms of service, it is enough for employees of law enforcement and military departments to serve 20 years at the time of dismissal;
  • you must resign not earlier than 45 years, have at least 25 years of work experience, with at least 12.5 of them in the department;
  • for disability, it is necessary to prove that it was acquired in the process of service (the disease can manifest itself immediately or within 3 months after dismissal);
  • on the death of the breadwinner during the period of service. Individuals who were dependent on such a soldier have the right to apply for benefits.

When assigning a seniority pension, the reason for dismissal is important. A soldier can leave service as a result of changes in the staff position, due to health conditions or age, only then he will have the right to receive payment.

The amount of benefits for disability, length of service and social pensions in the Russian Federation, intended for military pensioners and their relatives, depends on the amount of money allowance, rank, number of years of service, in addition, working conditions are taken into account when calculating. So the annual period of participation in combat operations is counted as 3 years of service. If you have to work in special conditions, then 3 years in the calculation will be taken into account as 4.

The formula for calculating the length of service allowance, if the military department has worked for 20 years at the time of dismissal: average pay for 20 years × 50%.

For each additional year it is supposed to add 3%. When calculating, decreasing coefficients are used, they depend on the territory of service, health status and other criteria.

The accrual of payments begins from the moment a decision is made on the right to a preferential pension, in the 10th period after a serviceman applies for them.

The norms that provide servicemen with additional benefits are set out in the amendments introduced by 156 FZ to Law 166. They contain criteria and requirements that give servicemen the right to receive 2 pensions: military and civilian at the same time, or to choose one of the payments.

The circle of persons who can count on a 2nd pension is limited. The main civilian population, in the presence of several options for pension payments, is obliged to choose one.

Who is supposed to

According to the new rules, it is possible to demand a 2nd pension from the state, if by the time of the onset of the age at which social guarantees are laid, citizens already receive military benefits.

The law applies to persons who have received disability benefits or on the basis of service, if it is earned:

  • in the armed forces of Russia, the USSR or the CIS;
  • in state units of protection, security or defense;
  • in fire departments;
  • at the border service;
  • in the system of criminal correctional bodies;
  • in government departments for combating crimes;
  • in other government departments assigned to the military.

In addition, the following are entitled to 2 benefits:

  • parents, widows and children of military personnel who died during hostilities, service or at the end of it, if the cause was;
  • parents, widows and children of astronauts who died in the line of duty;
  • disabled persons.

You can understand whether a military pensioner is entitled to a 2nd pension by examining the conditions for its legal provision. If he meets all the requirements, then the pensioner has the right to count on an additional payment.

Criteria for granting a second pension

An insurance civilian payment for military personnel is provided for those who meet the criteria approved by law.

Terms of appointment:

  • Availability of preferential security (length of service or disability).
  • The onset of the established retirement age (for men - 60, for women - 55 years, for civil servants in 2017 - 60.5 and 55.5, with an annual increase to 65 and 63 years, respectively).
  • Sufficient civilian work experience (8 years - for 2017, subsequently the criterion will be increased by 1 year annually to reach the level of 15 years).
  • A sufficient number of PKI are pension points (11.4 in 2017, with an annual increase of 2.4 points up to 30 years).

If the military payment is appointed by the department under which the applicant was listed, then the FIU is responsible for calculating and calculating the insurance part.

It is important to note that when calculating the 2nd pension, the fixed payment will not be taken into account.

Insurance contributions from civilian work will be taken into account only if the individual is registered by the OPS (compulsory pension insurance) system, and the contributions are transferred to the personal account of the former military man.


The individual account number is indicated in the SNILS (insurance certificate). Receive the document in the FIU. SNILS is mandatory for formal employment.

Registration in the system allows the state to control:

  • civilian labor experience;
  • deductions from the employer to the FIU made for the employee;
  • the amount of wages.

Based on these indicators, the FIU calculates the insurance part.

Retirement age benefits

Like the civilian population, military personnel are entitled to preferences to reduce the retirement age, if there is a reason for this.

The grounds are:

  • up to 10 years for participation in the elimination of the accident at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant;
  • up to 10 years for service in hot spots or at facilities located underground;
  • up to 5 years for service in the Far North and in territories equated to it;
  • up to 5 years for service in radiation hazardous places.

If, as a result of a combat injury, a soldier becomes disabled and at the same time has at least 25 years of insurance experience, it is allowed to reduce the retirement age by 5 years.

Second pension for military personnel

By switching to a system of insurance savings, the state made it possible for military personnel to take into account their experience gained during periods of work in civilian organizations. This is due to the fact that for each employee, deductions are made to the FIU, including for those who previously served in the military departments. The state recognized that it is unconstitutional to deprive the security officials of the right to take into account the earned work experience when calculating the allowance.


The largest number of questions is raised by the process of accounting for the length of service, when the civil pension is calculated. Work in law enforcement agencies often consists of several periods, for example, training in the VVU, military service, combat missions, and so on.

According to 400 FZ, the insurance experience includes labor, and they are legally equal. For military and civilians equated to them, service is considered to be service.

The FIU will calculate the years of work:

  • before the introduction of the state pension insurance system (until 01.01.02);
  • after 2002, if for the former military employer contributions were transferred to the compulsory pension fund - OPS (that is, only for official employment).

Important! Only those years that were not previously credited when assigning military support can be taken into account in the insurance experience.

When there is not enough insurance experience to calculate the second security, it can be supplemented with non-insurance periods listed in the law. For example, years of study at a university, periods of caring for the disabled, parental leave, and so on. Study in military schools is not included in the length of service.

Mixed experience

The concept of "mixed pension" arose from the fact that it takes into account periods of both military and civilian service. Most often, the term is used when assigning security for length of service, when the term of service in the military field upon dismissal has not reached 20 years.

Given the new settlement systems, military personnel can qualify for a mixed pension:

  • at the time of dismissal, if they are entitled to a length of service allowance, taking into account the total length of service;
  • after reaching retirement age, if they already have a seniority pension;
  • upon reaching the age of retirement, if there is no length of service benefit due to lack of seniority.

Grounds for calculating the underlying collateral for the mixed type.

  • The number of years of service.
  • The total number of years worked (in civil and military service).
  • The amount of money allowance and wages (average).
  • The presence or absence of allowances.

The calculation of a mixed type pension is the sum of the average salary and civil salary for 25 years of work × 50%. For each additional year worked, 1% is added.

If the number of years of service for calculating preferential security was not enough for the military, then pension calculations are made on a general basis in accordance with 400 FZ. The service will be counted as seniority; the seniority pension in this case is not applicable.


The basis for calculating the 2nd pension for military personnel is the contributions that the civilian employer must pay for them to the Pension Fund of Russia on a monthly basis. All receipts are summarized in the individual retirement account of the employee.

Based on the insurance experience and the amount of deductions, depending on the employee's income, pension coefficients are formed - points. They are the basis for the procedure for the final accrual of insurance coverage.

The calculation formula consists of the product of the number of points and their price, which is approved at the legislative level. In 2017, the point price is 78.58.

Thus, the insurance part \u003d IPK x 78.58.

The amount received will be charged as a second civilian.

When forming pension savings, not only work experience and years of service are taken into account, but also periods when a soldier was temporarily not working for objective, often forced reasons. These include the time of caring for the elderly and disabled, urgent service, maternity leave and parental leave.

Such periods will be taken into account if:

  • for the specified time there is a documentary justification for the absence from work / service;
  • before and / or after these periods, the citizen worked / served.

The time spent is also transferred to the PKI, which are subsequently taken into the general calculation of the insurance pension.

In addition, a bonus system is provided in the calculation of payments. The civilian allowance will increase at the expense of additional points if the soldier continues to work after the onset of retirement age. Bonus points are awarded for each year worked during this period.

Indexation of payments

Dismissal from service occurs most often after reaching the age of 45. Continuing to work in the civilian field, a pensioner who has issued a second pension is entitled to its indexation. The state annually indexes by default. In 2018, the recalculation date is scheduled for January 1, as at the same time an increase in the monetary allowances of active military personnel is expected.

Registration procedure

The 2nd pension for military personnel is issued at the nearest branch of the PFR. The assignment of the benefit is active. This means that until the former soldier applies for an insurance pension, it will not be presented.


To apply for a 2nd pension, military personnel must submit an application and present documents to the FIU.

The obligatory set of documents includes:

  • Personal passport of a former military man with the specified registration.
  • A copy of the work book.
  • Certificates from the place of work or service, reflecting the working period and salary, will be needed if the length of service is supposed to be taken into account before 2002, and there are no entries about it in the book (as well as for the planned accounting periods when contributions for a serviceman were not transferred to the FIU)
  • SNILS.
  • A certificate in the established form about the presence of a military pension, which indicates all the periods of service taken into account when it was assigned.
  • Certificate of salary for periods of work until 2002.
  • Documents confirming the presence of non-insurance experience.
  • Birth certificates of children, if there are minors or children under 23 years of age undergoing full-time education.
  • When changing the surname, you will need a document confirming this fact.

In the process of applying for a 2nd pension, documents may be required to prove eligibility for benefits. For example, a certificate of disability, certificates of work in special conditions, and so on.

The former military can issue the appointment of insurance coverage in several ways.

Ways to apply for a 2nd pension:

  • In the personnel service at the place of current work.
  • Personally at the Pension Fund.
  • Through the portal of state services.
  • At the nearest accredited multifunctional center.
  • By Russian Post, sending the application and documents in a valuable letter with notification.

If it is not possible to independently deal with the registration, you can use the services of a representative to submit an application and documents, then a power of attorney should be drawn up in his name with a notary.

A former soldier has the right to apply for a 2nd pension from the moment he is entitled to it. The deadline will be considered the date the benefits were awarded.

The FIU has 10 days to make a decision. If a refusal comes on the application, it must be motivated.

After the opportunity to receive two collaterals at the same time has been realized,

the relevance of the transition to a civil pension has practically disappeared.

The benefits of such a transition may exist:

  • if the old-age benefit, taking into account a fixed base payment, exceeds the amount of military and insurance pensions, where the base is not taken into account (at modern rates of military payments, this is extremely rare);
  • if the former military man does not have enough work and civilian experience.

If a citizen believes that he will win in money, then it will not be difficult to switch from a current pension to a civil one; this requires an application to the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation.

If the topic of registration of the 2nd pension is relevant for you, leave your comments to the article. Share what problems you had to face, what were the reasons for the refusal from the FIU, were there any difficulties taking into account certain periods of service in the seniority. If you have any questions, let's discuss them.

Military pensioners who continue to work after retirement are entitled to a second - civilian - pension through the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation. How to properly formalize the relationship with the employer? What conditions must be met in order to earn a second pension? The Pension Fund of Russia continues to acquaint the readers of RG-Week with the basics of pension legislation.

What do you need to be eligible for a second pension?

Your job must be official, the employer must pay insurance premiums from your salary. And the military pensioner himself must register in the compulsory pension insurance system and receive a certificate - a plastic green card on which SNILS is indicated - the insurance number of an individual personal account. To do this, you need to personally contact the territorial body of the Pension Fund of Russia in the locality where you are registered. You can contact the PFR office and at the place of actual residence.

At the Pension Fund branch, you will need to fill out an insured person's application form and present an identity document.

After that, the retirement's pension rights will be formed in the same way as for all civil workers. Information about the accrued and paid insurance premiums, periods of work in civil organizations will be reflected in his individual personal account. For citizens born in 1967, it is also possible to participate in the funded component of the pension system.

What conditions are needed for the appointment of a second pension?

Since 2015, the procedure for the formation and calculation of all labor (now they are called insurance) pensions, including the second pensions of the former military, is determined by the new pension formula.

To receive a second pension, these conditions must be met at the same time.

  1. The general age is 60 for men and 55 for women. If a military pensioner works in the North or in an enterprise with harmful conditions that give the right to an early retirement pension, he can receive a second pension before reaching the generally established age.
  2. Minimum insurance experience. This length of service begins to be taken into account after employment in civilian life; years of service in the security department are not included in it. In 2015, the minimum insurance experience is 6 years, and from January 1, 2016, it will increase annually by one year to 15 years in 2024.
  3. The presence of a minimum amount of individual pension coefficients (points) - is calculated annually and depends on the salary and paid contributions. In 2015, the IPC was set at 6.6. It will increase annually to 30 in 2025.
  4. Availability of a pension for seniority (or disability) through the Ministry of Defense or another law enforcement agency.

How many retirement points can be awarded in 2015?

For 2015, for military pensioners working in civilian organizations (as well as for all other employees insured in the OPS system), the maximum score was 7.39. It will be received by employees with a monthly income before personal income tax - 59,250 rubles. and higher.

Attention! On the Pension Fund website (start page), you can find out how many points an employee will receive in 2015. To do this, you need to enter the amount of your monthly salary in the interactive window and get an answer in the "Calculation result" window.

What documents are required to calculate the second pension?

To assign an old-age insurance pension, a military pensioner must apply to the Pension Fund at the place of registration (or actual residence) and submit:

  • the passport;
  • insurance certificate of OPS (green card);
  • a certificate from the body that pays the pension through the security department. The certificate must indicate from what date the citizen receives a pension, the periods of his service preceding the appointment of a pension (either for seniority or for disability);
  • documents confirming civil service (work book, employment contract, employer's certificates, etc.).

Attention! Military retirees with periods of work in civilian life before 2002 can submit documents confirming the average monthly earnings for any 60 consecutive months before January 1, 2002.

What is important to know

The insurance pension is assigned to military pensioners without taking into account the fixed payment (the fixed base size in the previous pension formula);

The insurance pension is indexed annually by the state (from February 1, depending on the inflation rate in the previous year);

If a military pensioner continues to work after the second pension has been awarded, the PFR automatically (without submitting an application) recalculates his insurance pension every year from August 1.

The right to funded pension

Until the end of 2014, the old-age labor pension for citizens born in 1967 and younger consists of two parts: insurance and funded. The insurance premiums paid by the employer to the Pension Fund are split between these two parts. From 2015, the funded pension becomes independent. The terms of its appointment and the calculation formula do not change.

Citizens born in 1967 and younger until the end of 2015 can choose a pension option: direct all contributions only to an insurance pension or, as was the case before 2015, choose a mixed option - insurance and funded pensions.

For military pensioners, savings are formed if:

  • they were born in 1967 or later and worked in a civilian state and their company paid insurance premiums to the FIU;
  • they formalized maternity capital and sent it to future retirement;
  • while working in a civil enterprise, they (regardless of age) entered the State Pension Co-financing Program and made payments in accordance with its terms;
  • older citizens also have small savings (men born in 1953-1966, women born in 1957-1966). Their contributions were formed from 2002 to 2004, if their employer paid pension contributions.

Servicemen have the right not only to receive a military pension, which is awarded for years of service, but also to receive ordinary civilian pension payments, which can be received by any resident of the Russian Federation. However, there are certain conditions for its appointment, because of which many questions arise. In addition, the calculation of the second pension for military pensioners is also not a sufficiently transparent topic.

In this material, we will talk about the conditions under which a second pension is assigned to military pensioners, and how it is calculated.

Terms of appointment

In order for a military pensioner to qualify for a civilian pension, the following conditions must be met:

  • The pension is assigned to men at the age of 60, therefore, it is impossible to claim it before this period under any circumstances.
  • Work experience. A soldier must have work experience, this means labor activity with the exception of military service. The required length of service for 2017 is 8 years, while this figure increases by one year every year. Thus, in 2020, in order to receive a mixed pension, a military man will need to have 11 years of work experience. This requirement will increase until 2025, when it will be 15 years.
  • Since 2015, a requirement has also been introduced for the presence of a certain value of the individual pension coefficient. It depends on the size of the insured sums paid, which, as a rule, are equal to 10% or 16% of the salary. You should have a coefficient of at least 11.4, while this requirement increases by 2.4 points every year. Thus, in 2020, to receive a civil pension, you will need to have a coefficient equal to 16.2. The requirement will progress until it equals 30 points.

A large number of questions arise regarding the definition of seniority. It is worth noting that it also includes labor activities carried out before registration of SNILS (that is, registration in the pension insurance system). To confirm such experience, you can use the entries in the work book, certificates and archival extracts.

In addition, the period of study in educational institutions (full-time only) and periods of caring for children, as well as disabled relatives are taken into account.

How is the calculation carried out

The calculation causes some difficulties, however, in fact, it is quite easy to perform it, armed with a calculator and all the necessary information.

So, for the calculation you need to know:

  • the ratio of wages to wages, adopted by the average in Russia (K);
  • experience, taken into account in years (St);
  • individual pension coefficient (IP), it is calculated as the sum of annual coefficients, which, in turn, can be found from the formula:

Гп \u003d SUMsv / SUMsot, where:

  • Гп - annual penny. coeff.,
  • SUMsv - the total amount of insurance premiums;
  • SUMsot - the amount of insurance contributions;
  • the estimated period of payment of the pension (is 228 months for all military pensioners, calculated according to statistical data).

In addition, the civil pension payment is calculated taking into account some constants:

  • The value of the average monthly wage in 2000-2001. It is equal to 1671 rubles.
  • The value of the coefficient of full length of service. Equals 0.55.
  • The value of the basic part of the pension for 2002. Equal to 450 rubles.

Calculation examples

The best way to comprehend the procedure for calculating pension payments is through examples. Here are some of them.

Ivan Sergeevich Stepanov, born on February 15, 1955, retired from the Ministry of Defense, made an appeal regarding the establishment of a second pension on 03/05/17. The date of appointment of pension payments - 03/05/17. Work experience in the civilian sphere - 16 years and 3 months. His salary coefficient (K) is 1.1.

((1.1 (salary coefficient) 1671 (average salary in 2000-2001) 0.55 (seniority coefficient) - 450 (basic part)) 228

(estimated period of payments) \u003d 127897.74 rubles.

The resulting amount must be multiplied by coeff. incomplete work experience:

127897.74 0.0803 \u003d 10270.1291 rubles

Since the payment has been regularly indexed since 2002, we will determine the total capital at the current moment by multiplying the value found earlier by the index 5.6:

10270.1291 5.6 \u003d 57512.72296 rubles

Adding to it the amount of insurance premiums and dividing the resulting number by 228 (the estimated period of payments), we get the insurance part:

57512,72296+392565,32/228=1974,0265

Dividing this figure by the cost of points in 2015 - 64.10 rubles, we will find the Individual Coefficient at the end of 2015.

1974,0265/64,10=30,796

Since the beginning of 2016, the IPC was 6.43. From here we can find out the total value of the IPC:

30,796+6,43=37,226

By multiplying this number by the value of points in 2017, we find the amount of pension payments:

37.226 78.58 \u003d 2925.226 rubles

Thus, using these simple calculations, you can easily determine the amount of the mixed military pension you are entitled to. The example below illustrates the calculation order based on which you can perform your own calculations. Also on our site there is a special calculator that greatly simplifies the implementation of this task.
