When do the September pensions, recalculated, enter the card?

Millions of seniors in Romania are eagerly awaiting their pension following the recalculation, which is to be received in the first half of September. The pension recalculation was initiated following a reform aimed at correcting inequities in the pension system and ensuring a better standard of living for pensioners.

For some pensioners, the recalculation can bring income increases, especially for those who had below-average pensions due to incorrect or outdated initial calculations. However, there are also uncertain situations for many pensioners who have not yet received their recalculation decisions at home. This delay creates anxiety and insecurity as many depend on these amounts to meet their daily needs.

The authorities noted that the recalculation process is complex and time-consuming, and decisions will be gradually sent to beneficiaries. Pensioners who have not yet received the recalculation decision are advised to contact the pension houses for more information and to check the status of the process in their specific case.

There are many pensioners who declared themselves shocked by the notices they received after the recalculation of their pensions, and specialists recommend that everyone wait for the specific moment when they come into possession of the money, to see the new financial situation, and only then decide if they are satisfied or if they really want to to call the authorities to court

Distribution of pensions in September 2024
