The expert told who will receive two pensions in April.

Some Russian pensioners will receive two pensions in April. This was announced on April 26 by the Dean of the HSE Faculty of Law, Professor Vadim Vinogradov.

He clarified that if the date set by the Social Pension Fund (SFR) falls on the period from May 1 to May 4, then people will receive a payment in April, since these dates are days off.

"If the payment date falls on a non-working day, then pensioners receive their pension on the previous working day. In our case, these are the last days of April, that is, the 29th and 30th," the professor said in an interview with the Prime agency.

In addition, he clarified that pensioners who receive payments from May 9 to 11 will receive their pension on the first working days of the month, that is, from the 5th to the 7th. Vinogradov added that this information is not official and it is worth waiting for the official schedule from the SFR. The expert noted that it will be available on the websites of the fund's regional offices.
