New Year's holidays give the majority of the population an opportunity not only to take a break from work and arrange a small vacation for themselves, but also confuse pensioners who do not know when and how they will receive their pension in January 2019.
The celebration of the New Year will last ten days in 2019 - this is the time of a long weekend. But what if these days many pensioners of the country are calculating their pensions these days? When will they be able to receive their pension for January 2019?
This question is asked by the majority of elderly Russians. Pensioners receive their honestly earned pension monthly for the current month, while for some it is the first day of the month, while for others it is the middle. In view of the current situation with the holidays, some received their pension ahead of schedule - in December last year. This mainly affected those who receive their pension through delivery companies. The situation is completely different with pensioners who receive payments through the Russian Post and banks.
So, the Russian Post will begin its work on January 3, according to the schedule. It will be possible to receive a pension on the 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th. It should be remembered that January 6 will be reduced for work by 1 hour, and January 7 will be a day off, since no one cancels the celebration of the Nativity of Christ. On the rest of the days, everything is within the schedule.
As for banks, it all depends on what days the accrual takes place. If it is from the 1st to the 8th, then the pension should have been paid by December 29, 2018 inclusive. So, Sberbank of Russia makes accruals from the 15th to the 20th, and therefore those who receive a pension through it will not be affected by early receipt. The pensioners will receive their payments on time in January.
It is worth recalling that from January 2019, pensions will be indexed and will slightly increase, which cannot but please the residents of the country.
