In addition, the pension can be increased by establishing a funded part of the pension or an urgent pension payment (if there are insurance contributions in a special part of the individual personal account of the insured person), and the pension is also increased due to its indexation.

The prosecutor's office of the Milkovsky district of the Kamchatka Territory conducted an investigation into the appeal of a resident of the village of Atlasovo about non-receipt of unemployment benefits.05.03.2019 Prosecutor of the Kamchatka Territory From February 27 to April 27, 2019, a survey of employers is being conducted in the Kamchatka Territory.
26.02.2019 Employment Agency
The minimum and average pension per month in Kamchatka is:
- in 2015 - 17800 - minimum, 19500 - average;
- in 2016 - 18,700 - minimum, 20,600 - average;
- in 2017 - a slight increase in pensions is expected against the background of the general economic situation in the country.
Compared to the average benefits in the country, Kamchatka pensions seem large, but this is influenced by many factors.
For example, prices, remoteness of the region, not the most favorable conditions. Cities in Kamchatka are based on a military structure and ports. People come here to earn money so that their income will be high.
An increase in the amount provokes a change in external conditions and the regional coefficient. The Kamchatka Territory falls under the law on the payment of supplements to the benefits of people living in the Far North and, accordingly, has some financial advantage.
The minimum wage in the region is also higher than in other regions. For 2017, the minimum wage was 15,800-18,230 rubles. Compared to 2015-2016, the amount has not increased much, but progress is visible.
Also in 2017, pensions for non-working pensioners were increased. For the rest, the index will rise after they leave their jobs.
Additional payments and allowances
As already written above, people go to the peninsula to work, because work here ensures an almost comfortable old age.
The “northern” amount of payments is considered extremely high, in some regions it is 2 times more, if you compare, for example, this peninsula and.
All this is based on the law that the peoples of the Far North and similar areas receive some additional pensions. This depends not only on place of residence, but also on work experience and so-called calendar years.
In the whole country, Kamchatka pensions are higher than basic Russian ones in 1.5-1.6 times. This applies not only to labor, but also to social pensions.
A reduction in the amount when leaving Kamchatka occurs only if the full length of service established by the authorities is not observed. You must work for 15 calendar years and have 25 years of insurance experience. Only then will the full amount of payments when leaving the territory of the peninsula be preserved.
Pensions in Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky are paid on a general basis, as in other Russian regions. Currently, there are 58,191 recipients, with a total number of citizens of retirement age of 93,202. Compared to other regions of the country, state provision here is slightly higher due to northern allowances and increasing coefficients. The amounts due are indexed annually.

When determining the size of the labor pension in accordance with the said law, the total calendar length of service as of 01.01.2002 is taken into account.
The current pension legislation provides for a number of benefits for pensioners living in the regions of the Far North and equivalent areas.
1. Thus, the fixed basic size of the insurance part of the labor pension for old age and disability for these persons is determined taking into account the regional coefficient established by the government of the Russian Federation depending on the region (locality) of their residence. For residents living in the Kamchatka Territory, payment of a fixed basic amount of labor pension for old age, disability, and loss of a breadwinner is carried out using a regional coefficient of 1.6. The fixed basic amount of the insurance part of the pension for Kamchatka from April 1, 2014 is 6,256.56 rubles, and on the mainland - 3,910.35 rubles. (In accordance with clause 6 of article 14 and clause 5 of article 15 of the federal law of December 17, 2001 No. 173-FZ.)
2. When calculating the amount of the insurance part of the pension, an increased earnings ratio of 1.7 is taken into account (on the mainland - 1.2), which is not recalculated when the pensioner leaves the Far North.
3. For residents of the Far North, the right to early assignment of a labor pension has been retained; the pension is assigned with a reduction in the generally established retirement age by 5 years if they have an insurance period of at least 25 years and 20 years for men and women, respectively. Moreover, if the “northern” experience is less than 15 calendar years, but there are 7 years 6 months or more, the pension is also assigned earlier than the generally established age, the retirement age is reduced by 4 months for each year worked in the North.
4. For women who have given birth to 2 or more children, the retirement age is reduced by 5 years if they have at least 20 years of insurance coverage and have worked for at least 12 calendar years in the Far North.
5. On January 1, 2008, Federal Law No. 312-FZ of December 1, 2007 came into force, according to which persons who have worked in the Far North for at least 15 calendar years or at least 20 calendar years in equivalent areas, and having insurance experience of at least 25 and 20 years for men and women, respectively, a regional coefficient of 1.5 is established for the basic part of the labor pension for old age or disability, regardless of the place of residence and time of departure from these areas.
6. For non-working pensioners in the regions of the Far North and equivalent areas who are recipients of old-age and disability pensions, compensation is provided for the cost of travel to a vacation spot in the Russian Federation and back once every 2 years in accordance with Art. 34 of the Law of the Russian Federation of February 19, 1993 No. 4520-1 “On state guarantees and compensation for persons working and living in the regions of the Far North and equivalent areas, to a place of recreation in the territory of the Russian Federation and back.” This benefit has been provided to pensioners since January 1, 2005.
Thus, the current legislation is constantly being improved in terms of pension benefits for northerners. On January 1, 2015, a new pension law comes into force, which also provides for the preservation of pension benefits for northerners.

Special topic - northern pensions
Since 1958 I have been working in the “northers” as a builder. Retired in 1994. After some time, I was deprived of my northern experience.
A. Zaitsev, Petropavlovsk
After the new law on pensions came into force, the length of service for receiving a pension began to be calculated in calendar years. The concept of “northern” experience (a year and a half) has disappeared. The size of the labor pension now depends on the length of the total length of service, the average monthly earnings, the dependents of disabled family members, the presence of the 1st group of disability and some other factors.
For pensioners who received a labor pension assigned before January 1, 2002 for work in the regions of the Far North, as well as for work in special working conditions, in order to maintain benefits, a "technological" recalculation was made, as a result of which the coefficient for the "northern" length of service was determined at an increased size. The longer the "northern" experience for periods of work before 01/01/2002, the higher the coefficient for calculating the amount of pensions. Thus, the pensions of the “northerners” have increased.
What conditions (in particular, age and length of service) are necessary for Kamchatka sailors and fishermen to receive a preferential "marine" pension?
M. Karpushkin, Petropavlovsk
Early retirement pension is granted to sailors and fishermen subject to the following conditions: having an insurance period of at least 25 years for men and 20 years for women; having work experience as a crew member on ships of the sea, river fleet and fishing industry fleet (with the exception of port ships permanently operating in the port waters, service and auxiliary and traveling ships, suburban and intracity ships) of at least 12 years 6 months for men and 10 years for women; reaching age for men - 55 years, for women - 50 years.
If, in addition to the listed conditions, you have at least 15 calendar years of work experience in the Far North or at least 20 calendar years in equivalent areas, the retirement age is reduced by an additional 5 years. Thus, under the specified conditions, the right to a “marine” pension will arise 10 years earlier than the generally established age for the assignment of an old-age labor pension.
Is there any hope that pensioners who have left for the mainland will receive “northern” pensions there too? Previously, “northern” pensioners, when leaving for the mainland, received a 3-month pension “in advance.” And now?
V.S., Milkovo
Unfortunately, in accordance with Federal laws, when a pensioner leaves the “northern” regions, the regional coefficient is removed from the basic part of his pension.
As for the second question, in accordance with pension legislation, the payment of labor pensions is carried out only for the current month. Payment of pensions 3 months in advance is not provided.
That's the law
From November 25, 1957 to December 18, 1961, he served in a training detachment on the island. Russian and on Navy ships in Kamchatka, from December 18, 1961 to December 21, 1963 - under contract in Vilyuchinsk. Not a single year was included in the “northern” period of service, which gives the right to early retirement.
V. Zyryanov, Vilyuchinsk
Early labor old-age pension for work in the Far North in accordance with the norms of the Federal Law "On Labor Pensions in the Russian Federation" is established for persons who have worked in the Far North for at least 15 years, and in areas equated to the Far North for at least 20 years.
The legislator clearly defines the legal concept in this paragraph - work. According to the law, military service is not included in the “northern” length of service, but is counted in the insurance period along with periods of work.
The district administration of the Pension Fund requires a certificate of hazardous work at Shakhtoenergoremont in the Rostov region, where I worked for a long time. The Shakhty archive does not provide such information.
S. Koshelev, Oktyabrsky village
For early assignment of a labor pension for work in hazardous working conditions, the applicant must submit supporting documents. One of these documents is a certificate specifying special working conditions. The certificate is issued by the employer. The demands of the PFR management specialists in the Ust-Bolsheretsky region are legitimate.
But currently your documents are under control at the regional Pension Fund Branch, an additional request has been sent to the Rostov region.
Military pensions are calculated on a different principle than civilian ones. But if an officer, having become a pensioner, gets a job, then the employer begins to transfer insurance contributions to his PF account. If these contributions are not reflected in any way on the military pension, then where do they go?
V.K., Elizovo
Unfortunately, the current legislation does not have a mechanism guaranteeing military pensioners the provision of appropriate insurance coverage that takes into account the amount of insurance contributions from employers. This, in turn, does not allow former military personnel to receive insurance and labor pensions.
However, the Constitutional Court of the Russian Federation, by its Resolution dated May 11, 2006, obliged the Federal legislator to provide a legal mechanism guaranteeing military pensioners working under an employment contract, in addition to the state pension, payment of the insurance part of the labor pension, taking into account the insurance contributions reflected on their individual personal accounts in the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation .
Retire early
My friends received letters of happiness last fall, but I haven’t yet. Are they sent to all citizens or selectively?
T. Stepanova, Petropavlovsk
Letters with information about the status of an individual personal account are sent to all citizens of the Russian Federation centrally from the Pension Fund of Russia. From these letters you can find out about all accrued and paid insurance contributions for compulsory pension insurance starting from 2002. In accordance with Russian legislation, informing the population about the status of personal accounts is carried out in two stages: before
On September 1, men born in 1953 and younger, and women born in 1957 and younger are informed, after October 1 - the “senior” group of insured persons: men born in 1952 and older, women born in 1956 and older.
I am a working pensioner. In February 2007, a year after my old-age pension was assigned, I contacted the Pension Fund with a request to recalculate my pension. They did it, but they said that I would receive a new pension not from March, but from July. Why?
I. Tarasova, Petropavlovsk
Recalculation of the insurance part of an old-age labor pension or a labor disability pension is made from the first day of the month following the month in which the application for recalculation was submitted.
At the same time, the estimated pension capital is formed from the total amount of insurance contributions and other revenues for the insurance part of the labor pension. These receipts must be confirmed by data from the federal treasury authorities of the Ministry of Finance of the Russian Federation.
Inclusion in the individual personal accounts of working pensioners of the amounts of insurance contributions received by the Pension Fund from policyholders is made at the end of the calendar year. The estimated pension capital will be formed from insurance contributions for 2006 no earlier than July 1, 2007. However, the insurance part of the old-age pension will be recalculated for the period from March 1, 2007, and you will be paid the lost amount of the pension.
I am 48 years old. Our organization is downsizing its workforce. We register with the Employment Center. They say that there is a law according to which in such a situation you can retire early?
I. Gurina, Petropavlovsk
In accordance with the Law “On Employment of the Population in the Russian Federation,” if there is no opportunity for employment for citizens dismissed due to the liquidation of an organization or a reduction in headcount or staff, with their consent, a pension may be assigned before retirement age, but not earlier than two years. A mandatory condition is the presence of at least 15 calendar years of experience in the regions of the Far North, or at least 20 calendar years of experience in equivalent areas, plus the presence of at least 25 and 20 years of total insurance experience, respectively.
If a person has chosen a non-state management company or a non-state pension fund, can he change his decision and return to the state Pension Fund?
S. Ivanova, Elizovo
Yes, applications for this can be submitted to any territorial body of the Pension Fund in the Kamchatka region. The insured person can exercise his right of choice no more than once a year and no later than December 31 of the current year. In addition to the relevant application, you must submit an identification document and an insurance certificate of compulsory pension insurance.
I have been retired since 1992. My pension turned out to be less than that of my friend who became a pensioner after 2000. Even despite the fact that I have more experience and average earnings. Why?
V. Ulanov, Petropavlovsk
It is impossible to answer this and similar questions without knowing specific data. For detailed explanations, do not hesitate to contact the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation at your place of residence or contact us at the Fund Branch in the Kamchatka Region.
