The deputy spoke about the pension allowance for each minor child.

For each child under the age of 18, Russian pensioners can receive a special pension supplement, the amount of which is one third of the established fixed payment. About this on September 2 Alexey Govyrin, a member of the State Duma Committee on Small and Medium-sized Enterprises, said.

"For each disabled dependent, child under 18, full—time student under 23, disabled parent or spouse, an additional one-third of the fixed payment is paid, about 3,195 rubles per person, but no more than three dependents, according to an application to the Social Fund with documents," the parliamentarian said in an interview with RT.

The deputy added that an allowance of a quarter of the fixed payment is due to citizens who have worked for at least 30 years in agriculture in specialties from the approved list. This benefit is fully retained by the pensioner even if he moves to another city, however, in the case of official new employment, this payment is temporarily suspended.

In addition, people with more than 15 years of experience in the Far North can expect a 50% increase, and a 30% surcharge is charged for work in equivalent areas for 20 years.

Additionally, the fixed part of the payment is automatically doubled and increases to 19,169 rubles when the pensioner reaches the age of 80 or when the first disability group is established, while these two grounds are not combined. Govyrin also recalled that if the total income of a non-working senior citizen is below the established subsistence minimum for a pensioner, which is 16,288 rubles in the country, then the corresponding additional payment to the required level is assigned by the system absolutely automatically without the need to submit a personal application.

Pensions will rise in the fall: which Russians will have their payments recalculated from September 1

Pensioners who completed their work in August will receive a pension from September, taking into account all indexations.

On the eve of August 31, deputy Yaroslav Nilov said that non-working pensioners in Russia cannot receive an income below the pensioner's subsistence level. If the amount of payments is less than the established level, the state appoints a social supplement. The federal living wage for a pensioner in 2026 is 16.3 thousand rubles, according to 360.ru . Any Russian citizen who has reached a certain age, including those who have never worked, has the right to pension payments, writes NSN.

Alexey Govyrin, a member of the State Duma Committee on Small and Medium-sized Enterprises, said on August 27 that payments to several categories of pensioners could increase in the fall of 2026. According to him, the most noticeable changes will take place from October 1. According to the draft government decree, the salaries of military personnel and employees of law enforcement agencies will be increased by 4%.
