700,000 Russian Pensioners to Get One-Time Payment in 2026
In 2026, a significant change is coming for Russian pensioners. Those aged 55 and above, with accumulated pensions not exceeding nearly 440,000 rubles, will be eligible for a one-time payment. Over 700,000 citizens are expected to benefit from this measure.
The average one-time payment is estimated to be slightly over 61,000 rubles, varying based on individual contributions. To qualify, the monthly equivalent of the accumulated pension must be less than 10% of the minimum living wage, expected to be over 16,200 rubles in 2026, with a payout period of 270 months.
The search for the responsible minister or government official yielded no results. However, the legislation allows pensioners to receive their accumulated pension shares as a lump sum, with a limit of 440,000 rubles.
In 2026, over 700,000 pensioners can expect a one-time payment, providing a significant boost to their finances. The exact amount will depend on their accumulated contributions, with the average payment estimated at over 61,000 rubles.
