The national social security agency, Anses, has published the full payment schedule for pensions in February, specifically for retirees and pensioners whose identification numbers end in 8. These retirees received their payments on different dates depending on whether they are receiving the minimum pension, a higher pension, or a non-contributory pension. For those receiving the minimum pensions, payments were credited on February 20, while those with pensions above the minimum received theirs on February 27. Non-contributory pension beneficiaries with IDs ending in 8 were paid on February 13.

In addition to the specific payment dates, this month, retirees will see an increase of 2.85% in their payments, aligning with the inflation rate reported for December, which was 2.8%. This adjustment is in line with Anses' efforts to maintain retirees’ financial stability in light of rising costs of living. Such increases can provide essential support to retirees who often rely heavily on these funds for their daily needs.

Overall, the publication of the payment schedule and the announced increases reflects the government’s ongoing commitment to providing timely support to retirees and pensioners. It also highlights the importance of fiscal planning in managing the impacts of inflation on fixed incomes within the population, aiding in the overall economic stability for seniors in Argentina.
