Damn, we got the hang of it! The minimum pension in the DPR exceeded the Ukrainian one. Why and what does this mean?

The situation of residents of Donbass remains extremely difficult, especially for elderly people who are faced with the problem of obtaining their rightful pension, earned over many years of work. While the authorities of Ukraine and Russia are far from a common opinion regarding the territory, people living in the “occupied” territories have to look for a way to get a pension for residents of Ukraine in the DPR.

The problem of pension financing is directly related to the determination of place of residence and citizenship. Ukraine is faced with difficulties in paying pensions in the uncontrolled areas of the Donetsk and Lugansk regions, which have declared themselves as the DPR and LPR. The European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR) has confirmed the legality of refusing payments to Ukrainian citizens due to physical impossibility. At the same time, representatives of the Ministry of Justice of Ukraine stated that attempts had been made to provide support for citizens remaining in the conflict zone, and that it was physically impossible to organize social assistance in the area. The Ukrainian side states that in the current state of affairs, only Russia, which now controls the territories, is able to resolve the issue of paying pensions to residents of Donbass.

Pension amount in 2020

From April 1, 2020, the amount of the fixed payment to the old-age insurance pension, taking into account indexation, is 5,653 rubles 72 kopecks .

Pension size in the DPR, minimum and maximum

In 2020, when the republic began to independently finance the maintenance of pensioners, the amount of payments in the DPR was equal to that established in Ukraine at the time of the collapse. The minimum pension was 971 UAH. and was paid in the specified currency. Due to a large number of restrictions and sanctions from the Ukrainian state, further financing of residents and the operation of the financial system with the hryvnia as the main currency became impossible. There were forced delays in payment of wages and benefits to citizens. Since July 2020, the DPR authorities have decided to switch to the Russian ruble as the main currency in the country.

The amounts of payment of state benefits and wages were recalculated at the then current exchange rate of 1:2. One Ukrainian hryvnia was equal to two Russian rubles. The minimum security amounted to 1942 rubles.

Indexation of payments

There is no procedure for indexing assistance to citizens in the republic; increases occur by decision of the Council of Ministers of the DPR or the Head. The first increase in the pension provision of citizens took place in January 2020, then the minimum payment to pensioners was increased to 2,600 rubles.

dateIncrease percentageMinimum payment amount, rub.
01.01.20172 600,00

01.01.20182 904,00
01.07.201810%3 194,00

Thus, as of August 2020, the minimum funding in the DPR is 3,194 rubles.

Attention! The percentage increase applies to all pensioners, with the exception of persons to whom payment was assigned by decision of the Head of the Republic A.V. Zakharchenko, which includes DPR military personnel who received the right to maintenance based on their length of service.

Considering that a large number of miners live in the region, the average pension payment is higher than the minimum threshold and amounts to 4,592 rubles.

The maximum pension for citizens of the Donetsk People's Republic is regulated by the Law of Ukraine “On the Procedure and Amounts of Pensions”; its value cannot exceed UAH 10,470, or RUB 20,940. before increases and 24,186 rubles. after all changes.

Restrictions on the amount of state payments do not apply to former military personnel, employees of the prosecutor's office and law enforcement agencies. The procedure for payment, assignment and amount of such content are regulated by separate documents that are not subject to publication. There are isolated cases where the provision of such persons reached an amount of about 40,000 rubles, but this is rather an exception. Civilians who have retired due to age rarely receive more than the average amount.

Retirement age in the DPR for women and men in 2020

The Donetsk People's Republic (DPR), while remaining de jure in the legal field of Ukraine, de facto creates its own legislative framework. In this regard, the retirement age in the DPR for men and women remained unchanged, unlike in Ukraine, where for a certain category of citizens it will increase to 2 years.

  1. Workers engaged in underground and above-ground mining and metallurgy.
  2. Workers in medical professions associated with hazardous working conditions.
  3. Women with 5 or more children.
  4. Citizens who have become disabled.

The procedure for assigning a pension, what length of service is needed

The main precedent for the retirement of a person employed in public and private sector enterprises is his reaching retirement age. A woman can apply for a well-deserved rest upon reaching 55 years of age, and a man - 60. A prerequisite is a minimum insurance period of 15 years.

For reference! Persons in whose care there are incapacitated disabled people have the right to early retirement at the age of 50 for women and 55 for men.

There are still countries in the world that do not provide government support to the elderly. Check out the list of 8 countries without an old-age pension.

Determining the amount of pension payment for a male citizen is based on average earnings for 5 years of continuous service, chosen by the policyholder himself. For women the period is 3 years.

The formula for calculating pension payments is as follows:

P = SZP*KZP*KST

P – pension;

SWP – average salary for the selected period;

KZP - the ratio of wages to the national average in the selected period. For example, the amount of a citizen’s income was UAH 5,000, and the average salary was UAH 2,500, the value of the coefficient will be equal to 2;

KST – work experience coefficient. For each year of work, a citizen receives 1.35% of his earnings as the right to a pension; with 30 years of experience, he can claim 40.5%.

Calculation example

The average salary of a citizen for the selected 5 years of work was UAH 5,000, the salary coefficient was 2, and the length of service was 30 years. Taking into account the specified data, the calculation will look like this:

P= 5,000*2*40.5% = 4050.00 UAH.

The pension amount in rubles will be 9,100 rubles, since its conversion from hryvnia is still carried out at the rate of 1:2.

If you ask yourself what length of service is needed for a decent pension in the DPR, then the minimum established by law will not be enough; it allows you to receive minimal support from the state.

How to calculate your pension in the DPR yourself

Until 2008, everything in this formula was extremely simple: the value of the estimated cost of a year of insurance experience was equal to one. That is, “All” could simply be removed from the formula. The experience coefficient was determined very simply: the total number of months of experience was divided by 1200. In practice, it turned out that 20 years of experience is 20% of the salary, 30 years is 30% of the salary, etc.

After 2008, the value of the cost of one year of experience was 1.35. Roughly speaking, the length of service coefficient for all pensioners was increased by 35%. If a person has, for example, 40 years of experience, then his pension is now considered as if he had 54 years of experience, that is, 54% of his salary. From January 1, 2020, it is planned to reduce the cost of one year of insurance experience to one again, that is, return to the simpler option that existed before 2008. But this option is, of course, less profitable.

We calculate pension using the new formula

Now it is 1.35, that is, for each year worked, the pensioner receives 1.35% of his earnings. That is, if a person has worked for 10 years, he is entitled to 13.5% of his earnings. If the work experience is 20 years, then the pension will be 27% of earnings and so on. At the same time, regardless of the size of the salary, the maximum pension, in accordance with the law, cannot be more than 10 minimum pensions, that is, 10,470 UAH. Now we multiply everything by everything and get our calculated pension in hryvnias multiplied by two. So your pension in the DPR will be in Russian rubles.

The salary for calculating the pension is determined in accordance with the provisions of Article 40 of Law No. 1058. To calculate the pension, wages for the entire period of insurance coverage from 07/01/2000 are taken into account.

Damn, we got the hang of it! The minimum pension in the DPR exceeded the Ukrainian one. Why and what does this mean?

► Interesting

In translation this is 1870 hryvnia. In Ukraine - 1638 hryvnia!

The so-called “DPR” states that as part of “integration with Russia” they are going to bring minimum pensions to the level of the Rostov region of the Russian Federation.

And these payments are indeed growing quite quickly now - over the past six months they have increased by 45%. Moreover, at the moment, the separatists’ minimum pension has exceeded the same figure in Ukraine.

True, at the same time in Donetsk, for the first time since 2014, prices for communal services were unfrozen, which are rising in price in several stages. But not everyone can get increased pensions.

However, the increase in payments is a serious marker of the further divorce of Donetsk and Kyiv.

Apparently, in the “republics” and Moscow they see fewer and fewer opportunities for integrating the region into Ukraine, and therefore they decided to invest money in increasing the “social services” in order to show the “advantages of living” in the “republics”.

True, there are many nuances that, to put it mildly, make it difficult to resolve this issue.

What happens to social payments in uncontrolled territories.

What is happening to pensions in the DPR?

On paper, everything is fine with pension payments in the uncontrolled part of the Donetsk region.

On the eve of the New Year, Donetsk announced that they would increase pensions by 20% from January 1, 2020. This means that the minimum pension will reach 4,800 rubles.

That is, in fact, many will receive even more. The pensioners surveyed say that even before the January increase, they had a pension of 4,600 - 5,000 rubles, while the minimum wage of 4,000 rubles was in effect until December 31.

But even the minimum 4800 rubles is an impressive amount compared to Ukraine. Translated into our money, this is 1870 hryvnia. Which is even higher than the pension minimum in Ukraine (1638 hryvnia at the beginning of the year and 1769 at the end).

And, although the “republic” will see the updated pension only in February, the head of the “republic” Denis Pushilin has already announced new pension increases.

The stated goal is ambitious - to reach the level of salaries and pensions of the neighboring Rostov region of the Russian Federation by January 1, 2022.

The increase, according to Pushilin, will be carried out in three stages: from January 1, 2021, from July 1, 2021, from January 1, 2022. At each stage, pensions will increase by an average of 20%, salaries of public sector workers - by 28%, and officials - by 18%.

That is, by 2022, the minimum pension in the DPR could, in theory, reach 8,294 rubles. It is unlikely that this will be comparable to the Rostov region, where the cost of living for pensioners is already 8,736 rubles (or 3,319 hryvnia), and in two years it will probably be even higher.

But in any case, the plans are ambitious – especially for the DPR. Moreover, a significant increase in pensions here began in the summer - in July, from 3,194 rubles, the pension minimum increased to 4,000.

Salaries of public sector employees

The second large layer of workers who should be affected by the increase is the budget sector. In it, the separatists announced an increase in wages from January 1 by 26%. The previous similar increase was in October.

Salaries in this field vary greatly. For example, before the January increase, a university teacher received 12-15 thousand rubles (4.6-5.9 thousand hryvnia). And an accountant at the same university costs about 9,000 (3,500 hryvnia).

In “ministries” the average salary is higher.

After the January increase, teachers will receive about 22-25 thousand rubles (5,570-9,700 hryvnia). School directors - about 30-33 thousand (11,700-12,800 hryvnia).

Pushilin also announced this winter an increase in salaries for energy workers and transport workers - drivers and conductors. True, he immediately announced that travel prices would also increase.

“After the next increase in salaries and pensions (January 2020), it will be necessary to talk about increasing the cost of travel. This is a forced measure,” Pushilin said.

And this is not the only fly in the ointment in this story.

“They require a DPR passport”

There are also a number of difficulties that for many people negate a formal increase.

Firstly, this is an unofficial requirement for a “DPR passport” when applying for a pension. Donetsk resident Evgeniy K., who applied to the local Pension Fund, was refused and asked to first obtain a local identification document.

And this is a slow process - from several months to a year.

True, as it turned out, such demands have not yet been put forward to those who are already receiving a pension from the separatists and were applying for it using a Ukrainian passport. However, local residents are alarmed that recently local authorities have begun to increase the weight of the internal “passport” too much.

As already reported, arbitrary detentions of those who only have a Ukrainian passport have begun in Donetsk. They are taken to the station, fingerprinted, photographed and released.

In addition, cars with Ukrainian license plates are being detained en masse and sent to the impound lot. This is not directly related to the issue of “passports” - but it shows the direction that the “DPR” has chosen: the complete displacement of Ukrainian documents.

That is, it is possible that the higher the pension, the more difficult it will be to apply for it. After all, getting a “DPR passport” is not an easy task. Especially after Russian passports began to be issued using this document.

By the way, contrary to the widespread myth that, having received a Russian passport, Donetsk pensioners receive three pensions at once (Ukrainian, “republican” and Russian), this is not so. A Donetsk resident can apply for a Russian pension only if he receives registration in one of the Russian regions. A Russian passport in itself does not give you the right to a pension.

Problems with wages in industry

However, increases in social payments largely offset the problems in industry.

After the blockade began in 2020 and industrial enterprises came under the control of the “republics,” they were never able to normalize their work. Products (coal and steel) have to be exported using various cunning schemes through Russia and South Ossetia.

For a long time, the main operator of these supplies was, which is associated with the fugitive Ukrainian oligarch Sergey Kurchenko. However, by the end of last year, it had built up huge debts to enterprises and stopped paying them.

Because of this, wage arrears arose. Now the “republics” and their “curators” in Moscow are trying to resolve the issue. But it turns out with difficulty.

In general, difficulties in establishing stable industrial operation are the main problem of the “republic”. In such a situation, its entire economy increasingly relies on budget payments.

It is still extremely difficult to find work outside the public sector. Not to mention starting your own business.

As pensions rise, so do prices.

The increase in pensions and salaries for public sector employees in Donetsk, which began in the summer, was considered by many to be “overcome.” After all, prices for food and basic necessities in the “republic” even then were not too different from those in Kyiv. And gasoline, travel and utilities were immediately significantly cheaper.

However, already in the fall, the “DPR” began to increase prices for communal services - for the first time since the formation of the “republic”.

Tariffs for cold water in September increased by 52% (12.7 rubles per cubic meter), water disposal - by 57% (8.83 rubles per cubic meter), garbage collection and rent - by 30%. In general, the average utility bill has risen in price by 300 rubles per month.

And very soon - from February 1 - the price of light will rise. Prices will change for the first time since 2020.

It is not yet known exactly how much electricity will cost (Pushilin’s “decree” says nothing about this). Now a kilowatt-hour costs 61.68 kopecks. There is a photocopy of the new tariffs circulating in Donetsk public pages – 80 kopecks. But this is unofficial information.

Judging by the methodical nature of the increase, we should most likely expect an increase in tariffs for gas, heating and hot water. At least such rumors have been circulating in Donetsk since the fall.

At the same time, utilities and electricity in the “DPR” are much cheaper than in Ukraine – even taking into account the existing and expected increases.

Garbage removal159.10 UAH/cu.m. m 49.27 UAH/cub.m.

Gasoline is also cheaper. In Donetsk it costs about 16 hryvnia per liter of 95 (in Ukraine 26-27).

How to live on retirement in Kyiv and Donetsk

Just a year or two ago, prices in the “republics” were significantly higher than in Ukraine. And for absolutely all goods and services.

The reason is the trade blockade and the ban on the import of Ukrainian goods. The vacuum had to be filled by Russian manufacturers, whose price tag was initially higher.

However, over the past couple of years, many prices in Ukraine and Russia have become equal—mostly Ukrainian ones have moved up. This was also reflected in the price tags in the DPR.

Thus, food products in Donetsk currently cost about the same as in Kyiv. The main reason is the strengthening of the hryvnia exchange rate to the ruble.

In addition, the “republic” has gradually restored its own food industry - many dairies and meat processing plants are operating.

ProductsKyiv, UAHDonetsk, UAH
Milk17,85-26,4714,10 — 24,28
Chicken fillet9082

Potato12,24 – 14,509 – 10,57
Eggs (dec.)26,5028,20

But what is still quite expensive in the “republics” is clothing and household appliances. What is clear is that these goods are not produced in Donetsk.

At what age do people retire in the DPR?

The retirement age for men remained the same - 60 years, and for women - 55 years, in accordance with the resolution of the Council of Ministers of the Donetsk People's Republic dated January 10, 2015 No. 1-12 “On some issues of assignment (recalculation) of pensions in the Donetsk People's Republic during the transition period".

At what age can you receive an old-age pension in 2020?

The following have the right to receive an old-age insurance pension under the new law in 2020:

Increase in pensions in the DPR 2020: when, to whom and by how much

Increasing pensions in the DPR was again on the agenda on February 1, 2020, appearing at the top of the republic’s news tops. The Minister of Social Policy again raised the topic of the need and impossibility of recalculating pensions due to a chronic lack of funds in the budget. For every one pensioner in the republic, there are only three officially employed citizens. For the reserve for increasing pensions in the DPR in 2020, this figure should be at least twice as large. But it was noted that the upcoming 10% increase in pensions in 2020 is still worth waiting for.

The expected increase in pensions in the DPR by 10%, in all likelihood, is unlikely to bring relief to the elderly and all other citizens. since it will entail an increase in prices for essential products. Because the budget will be replenished with money from dissatisfied entrepreneurs, ordinary residents of the DPR.

What types of pensions exist in the DPR?

The pension system in the Donetsk Republic, in fact, is still in its infancy, so in many ways it has similar features with the pension system in Ukraine. Let's take a closer look.

  1. According to the age. Thus, the vast majority of pensioners in Donbass receive old-age pensions. They can be counted on by older people who have the required work experience and have also reached a certain age established by law.
  2. Due to disability. Citizens who, due to their persistent health problems, cannot work and provide for their needs fully, have the right to count on material support from the authorities. Only those persons whose disability is confirmed can take advantage of the right to receive funds.
  3. For the loss of a breadwinner. This type of security is assigned to disabled family members of a deceased citizen, provided that they do not have other sources of income. As a rule, minor children can apply for this type of security.
  4. State support. According to special rules, military pensions are calculated for former employees of law enforcement agencies and the military. As a rule, the amount of their support significantly exceeds the pensions of civilians.

Important! The legislation of the DPR has no prohibitions regarding the receipt of pension payments by its citizens on the territory of Ukraine. At the same time, the Ukrainian authorities are introducing certain restrictions related to the issuance of pension money. Thus, there are certain requirements regarding the permanent place of residence of the pension recipient - it must be in territory controlled by Ukraine.

In addition, residents of the DPR have the right to a Russian pension, but only if they are citizens of the Russian Federation.

How to apply for a pension in the DPR

Pensions in the Donetsk People's Republic are issued on a strictly application basis . In other words, to assign payments, you must contact the relevant government agency, providing a certain set of documents.

Documentation

To assign a pension to a citizen of the DPR, it is necessary to prepare the following package of papers, including:

  • passport;
  • certificate containing the taxpayer code;
  • a certificate confirming registration on the territory of the DPR;
  • marriage and birth certificates;
  • military ID;
  • income certificates;
  • work book.

Reference! The list above is basic. If necessary, responsible specialists may request additional documents.

Where to contact

A citizen must submit documents and apply for a pension at the pension fund office at his place of residence.

Be sure to read it! Can a pensioner be a guarantor for a mortgage?

Terms of consideration

If there is a complete package of documents and there is no need to provide additional papers, the corresponding application is considered by officials of the DPR Pension Fund within 10 days. However, this period can be increased to 1 month if there are compelling and legal reasons.

How much experience is needed for a pension in the DPR

To assign a disability pension, at least a minimum insurance period is required on the date of disability or at the time of applying for a pension, the duration of which depends on the disability group:

Persons recognized as disabled have the right to a disability pension, depending on the disability group, if they have such insurance experience at the time of the onset of disability or on the day of applying for a pension:

If disability occurs during compulsory military service, then a disability pension is assigned to the person regardless of the length of insurance coverage.

A disability pension is assigned from the date of establishment of disability, if the application for a pension took place no later than three months from the date of establishment of disability.

What will the pension be if there is no work experience?

What kind of pension will there be? If there is no work experience, this question worries many. In the absence of length of service, you are not entitled to an insurance pension (depending on length of service).

But it is possible to receive a social pension, subject to a special law of the Russian Federation. Let's consider the procedure for its application in our article.

The majority of the population of the Russian Federation works, works in one form or another. If a person is able to confirm work experience (at least 7 years to receive a pension from 2020) and the fact of paying contributions to the Pension Fund from income during this period, he can qualify for payment of an old-age insurance pension.

A number of periods can be taken into account with an increased duration (clauses 6 and 7 of Article 13 of Law No. 400-FZ), and if necessary, length of service earned before the entry into force of Law No. 400-FZ can be taken into account according to the rules in force during the relevant work period (clause 58 of the Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation dated October 2, 2014 No. 1015)

Pension for victims of radiation and man-made disasters

For many citizens belonging to this category of the population, their pensions were calculated using the old formula before the adoption of the above law. But according to it, pensions assigned earlier are subject to recalculation using a new formula . However, if the amount is lower than previously established, the pension amount will remain the same.

Since Evgeniy Yuryevich is a liquidator of the consequences of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant, he is entitled to a state old-age pension (250% of the social pension). After indexation in April 2020, it is 13,101.64 rubles (up to 12,585.63 rubles). But citizen Sokolov is also a disabled person of the third group. In this regard, he is entitled to a disability pension, which is 125% (from April 1, 2020 - 6550.82 rubles). That is, twice as much.

How to apply for a pension

It is necessary to submit documents for receiving state support to the territorial office of the DPR Pension Fund at the place of registration of the citizen’s permanent residence. The package of submitted documents must include:

  • passport of a citizen of the DPR or Ukraine;
  • tax payer identification code;
  • address certificate indicating the place of residence in the DPR, if there is no registration or registered in the territory controlled by Ukraine;
  • marriage certificate and birth certificate of children;
  • military ID for men;
  • diploma of completion of an educational institution, full-time department;
  • a copy of the work book;
  • personification for the period since 2000 or certificates of income from places of work that will be taken into account when calculating pensions.

Persons who want to include the period of entrepreneurial activity in their insurance period must additionally submit:

  • certificate of state registration of such status;
  • certificate of payment of insurance premiums.

Attention! The above list is not final and may be supplemented depending on the basis on which the citizen retires.

Old age insurance pension

Citizens' insurance pensions are formed in the compulsory pension insurance system. It is calculated using individual pension coefficients - pension points , which are awarded for each year of work.

How to get more pension points

The number of pension points earned directly depends on wages, and we are talking about the official – “white” wages. The longer the insurance period, the more pension points will be generated, since they are awarded for each year of work.

The longer a person works and the higher his salary, from which the employer pays insurance contributions to the Pension Fund, the higher the size of his future pension will be.

Conditions for receiving an old-age insurance pension in 2020:

  • reaching the generally established retirement age (in 2020, taking into account the transition period, 61 years 6 months for men, 56 years 6 months for women);
  • the minimum insurance period in 2020 is 11 years, followed by an annual increase of one year to 15 years in 2024;
  • the minimum amount of pension points in 2020 is 18.6 points, followed by an annual increase of 2.4 points to 30 points in 2025;
  • in some cases, there are reasons for early appointment (Article 28 of Federal Law No. 173-FZ).

Social old age pension

In 2020, the right to receive a social old-age pension will be acquired by men who have reached the age of 66 years and 6 months, and women who have reached the age of 61 years and 6 months.

According to changes in legislation that came into force on January 1, 2020, the age at which the right to a social old-age pension arises is increased by 5 years: from 65 to 70 years for men and from 60 to 65 years for women. The retirement age will be raised in stages and will reach the specified values ​​by 2028.

Social old-age pension is assigned to citizens:

  • permanently residing on the territory of the Russian Federation;
  • who have not received the right to establish an old-age insurance pension
    (due to the lack of the required insurance period and/or the amount of pension points).

Citizens who simultaneously apply for different pensions can choose only one of them at their discretion.

Is a Russian pension available for residents of the DPR with a Russian passport?

According to the 1992 CIS agreement, member states are obliged to “take the necessary measures to establish the circumstances that are decisive for determining the right to a pension and its amount.” It follows from this that, if necessary, the Pension Fund will first send an official request to the Pension Fund of Ukraine, and if it refuses to respond, then to the pension authorities of the DPR and LPR. At the same time, the pension authorities of the DPR and LPR have an archive of information about insured persons for periods up to 2014 (in particular, the DPR Pension Fund has employers’ reports for the period from 2000 to September 2013).

“Pensions are assigned and paid by the state of permanent residence of a person, regardless of his citizenship (Russia or Ukraine). In this regard, Russian pensions are not assigned to citizens permanently residing in Ukraine, including in the Donetsk and Lugansk regions,” the Pension Fund said.

Delays in payment - reasons

Recently, delays in pension payments have become extremely rare. However, at the beginning of the formation of the DPR, they occurred quite regularly. The main reason is the lack of funding or, simply put, the lack of money from the DPR Pension Fund. In addition, debt often arises due to technical errors. Thus, in 2020, Ukrainian hackers hacked the electronic pension system of the DPR, which made it difficult to calculate pensions.

Citizens of the DPR have the right to receive pensions if there are compelling reasons for doing so. The DPR Pension Fund assigns payments, but the amount of payments remains quite low, despite the plans of the republic’s leadership to significantly increase them.
