Increasing the length of service to 25. Raising the retirement age at the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia

Departments that provide for military service have developed a bill to increase the minimum length of service, which gives the right to receive a military pension, from 20 to 25 years. This is reported by "Kommersant" with reference to a source close to the leadership of one of the Russian security agencies. This information was also confirmed to the publication by the interlocutor of V.

The document proposes to amend the Russian law "On pension provision for persons who have served in the military, service in the internal affairs bodies, the state fire service, the bodies for the control of the circulation of narcotic drugs and psychotropic substances, institutions and bodies of the penal system, the Federal Service of the National Forces. guards, and their families "dated February 12, 1993.

The work on the preparation of the draft law has been carried out since March of this year by the corresponding decision of the President of Russia Vladimir A. On May 22, the head of the main personnel department of the Ministry of Defense, the general, reported on the preparation of documents by the deputy head of the department to the general, the ministry said.

As a high-ranking official explained to the newspaper, representatives of all departments related to military service participated in the preparation of the bill. "The topic is very delicate, there are still a number of consultations at the level of the financial, economic and social blocks of the government, as well as all interested parties," he added.

The interlocutors of the publication did not specify the expected timing of the amendments, however, in their opinion, it would be logical to adopt the document after the presidential elections to be held in March 2018.

The authors of the bill also do not disclose the mechanism for increasing the lower threshold of length of service: whether a transitional period will be introduced for this is still unknown. It is also unclear how the adoption of the amendments will affect the budget.

The publication clarifies that the adoption of the bill will require amendments to the 13th article of this law (the conditions determining the right to a seniority pension) and 14th (the size of the pension).

At the moment, it is already known that the amendments, if adopted, will not affect those servicemen whose contract ends coincide with the 20th anniversary of service. Everyone else will have to serve five years longer to be eligible for a military pension.

The idea of ​​increasing the lower threshold for length of service has been discussed for a long time. In 2013, the military proposed to divide this process into two stages: until 2019, pay all servicemen who have served more than 20 years, but who have not retired, an increase of 25% of the pension that they could receive, and from January 1, 2019 finally establish a 25-year lower limit of service. However, after the calculations carried out at that time, it turned out that the federal budget did not have enough funds for additional payments required for the transition period.

In 2015, the discussion of this issue was resumed by chapter a. The government admitted that the service life required for a military pension could be increased immediately to 30 years, but this option was rejected.

The unstable economic situation in Russia three years ago also forced the Ministry of Finance to think about refusing to increase payments to military pensioners.

Siluanov and the head of the Ministry of Defense were able to resolve all issues and find additional funding only after Putin intervened in the situation.

Last month, the head of state signed a law to increase the retirement age for civil servants. According to the document, the retirement age of officials has increased to 65 years for men and up to 63 years for women. The law also provides for a gradual increase in the minimum length of civil service required for seniority pensions from 15 to 20 years.

Now "military pensioners" who, after retiring (retirement) continue to work in positions not related to military service, are entitled to a second, "civilian" pension under the line upon reaching the state-established retirement age (for women - 55 years, for men - 60 years) and the minimum required work experience (in 2017 it is eight years and will increase by one year to 15 years by 2024).

In March, the chairman of the defense committee, ex-commander of the Airborne Forces, Colonel-General, said in an interview with Gazeta.Ru that the average pension in 2016 was: for pensioners of the military service - about 23 thousand rubles, for pensioners of the law enforcement service - 17 thousand. rubles, for security agencies - 30 thousand rubles.

According to him, to calculate the "military" pension, the salary for a military position or official salary, a salary for a military rank or a salary for a special rank and a bonus for length of service (length of service) are taken into account.

The salaries of military judges, prosecutors and investigators are established in relation to the salary of the first person of the relevant department. Salaries in other departments are established by a decree. At the same time, the salaries by rank are the same for all, and the salaries for typical positions in the Foreign Intelligence Service and the Special Objects Service under the President are approximately 20% higher than in the Armed Forces and other troops and military formations. This is due to the specifics of the tasks performed by these bodies and a more stringent selection.

In Russia, for more than five years, there has been no indexation of the pay of servicemen.

“The guarantee of protection of servicemen's pay from depreciation has been unfulfilled for five years already, that is, in fact, for the entire period of the federal law“ On pay for servicemen and the provision of separate payments to them, ”Shamanov explained.

The provisions of this law, which stipulate that salaries for military posts and salaries for military ranks are indexed annually taking into account the inflation rate starting from 2013, are suspended annually by a separate federal law.

However, according to Shamanov, the indexation of the "military" pension was carried out by increasing the so-called reduction coefficient, which, in accordance with Art. 43 of the Law "On Pension Provisions for Persons Who Did Military Service ..." in 2012 was 54%, and from February 1, 2017 it was 72.23%. Its real increase was: in 2013 - by 8.2%, in 2014 - by 6.2%, in 2015 - by 7.5%, in 2016 - by 4%, and from February 1 2017 - by 4%. Thus, over the past five years - from 2013 to 2017 - the "military" pension has increased by 30%. And from 2011 to 2017, the "military" pension increased by 90%.

Servicemen, citizens of our country, constantly raise the issue of the procedure for retirement based on seniority.

This is due to the fact that few of them understand what and how to do. What documents do I need to provide? What is the allowance? How to apply for seniority?

Let's take a closer look at all these nuances.

Legislative regulation of the issue

All questions concerning pension provision for military personnel citizens of our country are governed by such legislation as:

Conditions and procedure for retirement

Citizens who serve in the ranks of the armed forces of the Russian Federation or are in some way involved in it have the right to accrue seniority pension payments. This right is enshrined in Federal Law No. 4468-1.

For calculating pension payments, a soldier must serve in the ranks of the RF Armed Forces a certain period of time.

Pension payments are assigned in accordance with what position during the service, a soldier occupied:

• must be at least 20 years old prior to dismissal. It should be noted that the age of a former soldier must be at least 45 years old;
• also, a soldier can be dismissed from his place of service under the wording “reaching the term that allows him to be in service”;
• when carrying out various regular activities (we are talking about possible checks for compliance with the position), which led to the dismissal.

It should be noted that the military needs general work experience:

• at least 25 years with a total length of service;
• not less than 12.5 years of direct experience in the ranks of the RF Armed Forces.

Pension payments for seniority are due to citizens who have completed military service under contract and held such positions like: soldier, sailor, sergeant, foreman, as well as persons who:

• served in any military units (railway, internal, and so on);
• were in the combined combat or administrative and economic units of the Armed Forces of the CIS countries;
• belong to the category of "border guards" or served in units whose task was to protect the integrity of the borders of the state;
• were servicemen of communications and information units.

Registration procedure

Military personnel, citizens who claim to retire for seniority, must compile a basic list of documents and register with the military commissariat at the place of their territorial location.

According to the current legislation, the main list of documents it is considered:

The list of documents presented above is mandatory. But that is not all. In some cases, you should provide some equally important papers.

This could be:

• certificate from the pension fund;
• or a document that confirms the fact of the change of surname.

It is also necessary to pay attention to the fact that, if you wish, you can apply for a seniority pension in the Pension Fund at your place of residence. But there is a small nuance here: it is necessary to additionally provide a certificate of the average salary for the last 5 years.

Payout calculation rules

Military personnel have the right to count on pensions at a rate of 50% from his own. When exceeding work experience at 20 years old, 3% will be charged for each additional year.

Maximum threshold the allowance is 85%.

Calculation of pension provision for military personnel with general work experience next:

• in the presence of 25 years of experience - the amount does not exceed 50% of the salary;
• in the presence of more than 25 years - for each year there is a surcharge of 1%.

At the same time, the pension itself can be calculated if the military service is at least 12.5 years.

It is also necessary to take into account the fact that at the legislative level it is established minimum pension threshold, which is 100% of the base part directly, which is assigned to every citizen of our country upon retirement.

Calculation example

Suppose a serviceman with the rank of lieutenant colonel is about to retire on the basis of seniority. Throughout his service, he served as deputy regiment commander.

The total length of service is about 37 years. In the process of determining the length of service, studies at a military school were also taken into account.

To determine the size of the pension payment, we will calculate:

50% + (36 — 20) = 98%

• 50% - the base salary;
• 36 years - general experience;
• 20 years is the required minimum period of service;
• 3% - supplement for each year after 20 years.

The revealed 98% markups cannot be applied, since there is a limit of 85% - and they will be used in the calculation.

Let's determine the amount of his money allowance:

(7800 + 8500) * 70% = 30 155 rubles

Wherein:

• 7800 - the size of the salary itself;
• 8500 rubles - the size of the salary for performing the duties of a deputy;
• 70% - the allowance established for him for a hired position (this allowance for each soldier can be established on an individual basis).

Based on the received salary, we will calculate the pension provision:

30 155 * 85% = 25 600 rubles

It is on this amount that a soldier has the right to count.

Problems in the appointment of retirement benefits

The main problem with the appointment of seniority pensions is that payments are suspended in case the applicant:

• begins work to fill a position in self-government bodies;
• holds any position in a municipal body on a permanent basis;
• carries out his labor activity in an intergovernmental body.

In the event that a former soldier is dismissed from his post, the assigned length of service payment is renewed in full.

Frankly, there are no significant problems in this matter, and everyone, with the necessary experience, has the right to receive seniority pension payments.

The amount of pension provision for employees of the Ministry of Internal Affairs (calculation formula)

The definition of the length of service of a police officer is regulated by article 14 of the law of the Russian Federation of 12.02.1993 N 4468-1.

When calculating this type of pension the following factors are taken into account:

• the size of the official salary;
• the size of the salary for a special rank;
• length of service in the Ministry of Internal Affairs or mixed work experience;
• seniority bonus.

The formula for calculating the pension of an employee of the internal affairs bodies with a length of service of 20 years and with a mixed experience of 25 years in 2019 is as follows:

RPO = 1/2 × (OD + NEO + NVL) × 72.23%,

• RPO- the size of the pension provision;
• OD- salary according to the position;
• NEO - salary for a special rank;
• NVL- seniority allowance;
• OD + NEO + NVL- the amount of the serviceman's monetary allowance (DD).

The amount of pension provision may increase for each year of service over 20 years - 3% of the specified DD, but not more than 85% in total, and with mixed experience for each year over 25 years - 1% of the amount of DD.

Calculation of an old-age insurance pension for a pensioner of the Ministry of Internal Affairs in accordance with Article 15 of the Federal Law No. 400 of December 28, 2013 "On insurance pensions" is made according to the following formula:

SP = IPK × SPK,

• Joint venture- old-age insurance pension;
• IPK- the value of the individual pension coefficient;
• SPK- the cost of one PC on the day of the appointment of the pension.

Increase (indexation) of pensions of the Ministry of Internal Affairs in 2019 in Russia for those who are already retired

Since the amount of pensions for police officers depends on the amount of money allowance, an increase in the amount of pension provision becomes possible in the event of its increase, which has not been carried out for several years. The indexation planned for October 2016 was not carried out due to lack of funds.

The reason for this situation is the difficult economic situation in our country, which negatively affects the filling of the Federal budget, from which the Ministry of Internal Affairs is financed.

At the end of October 2016, the government of the Russian Federation submitted to the State Duma a bill to extend until January 1, 2018, the "freeze" of the pay of federal employees, military personnel and employees of other law enforcement agencies, including the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

but in 2018 military pensions will increase by increasing the amount of money allowance by 4%... At the same time, in 2018 it will be set at 72.23%.

Should be held annually:

• February 1 to the inflation rate;
• April 1, based on the capabilities of the Pension Fund.

As for the second labor pension, it has been increased by 3.7% since January 1, 2018, which is ahead of schedule and higher than inflation in the previous year.

Will there be a one-time payment of 5,000 rubles to pensioners of the Ministry of Internal Affairs in 2019

In the initial version of the draft law on the payment of one-time compensation, there was no mention of pensioners of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, whose payments are regulated by a separate law of the Russian Federation of 12.02.1993, No. 4468-1, and only recipients of the Pension Fund were mentioned.

However, after the meeting in the Security Council of the Russian Federation held on November 8, 2016, the President ordered the introduction of appropriate amendments so that the planned for January 2017 would be received by the pensioners of the law enforcement agencies, including the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

Police officer pension calculator in 2019

Currently, there are many Internet services with which you can calculate the retirement pension of police officers.

In order to make calculations on the calculator, you need to go to the page of the corresponding site, fill in the information fields and make the calculation.

• the amount of the seniority allowance;
• qualification category (if any);

Using an online calculator, determine exact amount of pension, most likely, will not work because he cannot take into account all the peculiarities of the pension case of each employee. It, in fact, is not intended for this, but with its help you can assess your capabilities and prospects.

It is worth using calculators, the calculation algorithm of which contains up-to-date data taking into account the latest changes in legislation.

The procedure for applying and paying pensions to employees of the Ministry of Internal Affairs

All issues related to the procedure for applying for an employee of the Ministry of Internal Affairs for the appointment of a pension provision and the timing of its payment are regulated by Articles 51-56 of the Law of the Russian Federation of 12.02.1993 N 4468-1.

For seniority, a police officer must contact the personnel service of his unit, where he will be provided with the necessary advice and a list of documents and certificates that will need to be submitted to the pension department of the Internal Affairs Directorate.

Applications received by the pension department are considered within 10 days from the day of their submission or from the day of submission of the last required document, and the appointment takes place from the day of the employee's dismissal, but not earlier than the day before which he was paid a monetary allowance.

Payment of pensions is made at the place of residence or place of temporary stay of the recipient through:

• post office;
• branch of the Savings Bank of the Russian Federation.

Pensioners of the Ministry of Internal Affairs for the appointment of an insurance pension for old age apply to the territorial bodies of the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation on a general basis.

Required documents for registration

If a pensioner of the Ministry of Internal Affairs works, will he pay a second pension?

Many pensioners of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, after retirement, continue their labor activity in civil structures and, upon reaching, under certain conditions by law, they are entitled to receive an old-age insurance pension simultaneously with the already assigned departmental pension through the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

Payment of pensions assigned to employees of the Ministry of Internal Affairs in accordance with Article 57 of the Law of the Russian Federation of 12.02.1993 No. 4468-1 is made to their recipients, regardless of employment.

In the event that a pensioner of the internal affairs bodies, receiving two pensions, continues to work, then pension payments, both through the Ministry of Internal Affairs, continue to be carried out in full, but in accordance with Article 26.1 of Federal Law No. 385-FZ, indexation of payments through The Pension Fund will be suspended for the period when the recipient of the pension is working.

More than fifteen million personnel in Russia work in the apparatus of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. According to statistics, this figure has been growing since 2012. Even with all the reforms designed to reduce the number of employees of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and optimize the work of those who remain. At the same time, a pension reform is underway in our country, which in the way of its work in the past has shown its inability to meet the needs of all citizens. These two reasons prompted the Government to develop the 2016 Draft Law, according to which the length of service in the Ministry of Internal Affairs in 2016 must be at least 25 years in order for a seniority pension to be awarded (excuse the tautology). The first initiators of the increase in the length of service were the top officials of the Ministry of Finance, in particular, Anton Siluanov at the Gaidar Forum brought up this issue for discussion along with the issue of raising the retirement age in Russia as a whole. What do we have now and why the latest news about the increase in seniority to 25 years in 2016 will change little?

What does the bill on increasing the length of service in the Ministry of Internal Affairs in 2016 say?

Recall that today it is enough for pensioners of the Ministry of Internal Affairs to serve in the authorities 20 years and to issue an increased pension, which is due to employees. Starting from January 1, 2012, pensions are calculated from 69.45% of the allowances due at the time of service. According to article 13a of the Law of the Russian Federation of 12.02.1993 No. 4468-1, the formula for calculating the pension for employees of the Ministry of Internal Affairs with the required length of service looks like this:

Pension= (salary by position + salary by rank + bonus for length of service)? 69.45%? (50% + (3%? The number of years of service over 20 years, but not exceeding 85%))

Example. Senior detective (salary by position = 16,500 rubles), police major (salary by rank = 11,500 rubles), length of service - 21 years (percentage increase for length of service = 30%).

In this case, the pension for a senior detective in the post of police major will be = (16 500 + 11 500 + (16 500 + 11 500)? 30%))? 69.45%? (50% + (3%? 1)) = 13 398.29 rubles.

The bill leaves all these components of the formula, but increases the minimum service life in the Ministry of Internal Affairs from 20 to 25 years, that is, by a quarter, which is a very long period. But there is one "but" - according to the text, this increase may occur no earlier than in 2019 and will not affect those employees of the Ministry who were employed at the time of the adoption of the law.

What's wrong with the 2016 bill on increasing the length of service in the Ministry of Internal Affairs?

An interesting fact is that both the Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Labor, answering the question about the possible negative consequences of increasing the length of service in the Ministry of Internal Affairs from 20 to 25 years, say that this step, on the one hand, will push the contingent of employees of the Apparatus to more responsible performance of their duties (this mainly concerns those who have already worked in the Ministry of Internal Affairs for a decent period), on the other hand, unemployment can have a negative effect, since the term of service increased by a quarter, necessary to receive an increased pension, will not inspire anyone. Everyone knows that the employees of the Ministry do not have any special conveniences in carrying out service, and that large-scale changes are not expected to improve conditions in the near future.

On the other hand, the same head of the Ministry of Finance has repeatedly noted that the laws that are being developed today to increase the retirement age and length of service in 2016 are a direct effect of anti-crisis measures, and when the Russian economy exits the recession, all these bills can be curtailed and safely forgotten.

Pension legislation in Russia is constantly changing. It concerns the conditions for granting a pension and the number of payments. Police officers go on well-deserved seniority leave. For this category of citizens in the near future, a decrease in monetary allowances or a decrease in benefits is not expected. Changes in pensions to employees of the Ministry of Internal Affairs in 2017-2018 will affect indexation and receipt of "13 payments".

In Russia, women leave for legal rest from working days at the age of 55, and men at 60. There are a number of professions that allow them to retire much earlier: by length of service. These include employees of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, teachers, medical workers, citizens working in objects that are harmful to health, and a number of other professions listed in the pension legislation of the Russian Federation.

For law enforcement officials, you must serve at least 20 years to calculate the pension. If, for any reason, an employee was dismissed or reduced to length of service, then the right to receive a monetary allowance remains under the following conditions:

• the total length of service is at least 25 years;
• at least 12.5 years of total work experience were required to work in the authorities.

If these conditions are not met, but with 15-20 years of work in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, citizens are assigned social benefits.

The amount of seniority payments is calculated from the following components:

1. Salary for the position + salary for the title.
2. Service allowances.

According to the Federal Law, the pension to an employee of the Ministry of Internal Affairs is calculated from real wages, taking into account allowances at the time of dismissal and a reduction coefficient. As of October 1, 2015, the decreasing percentage of the pension was 66.78%.

The amount of supplements to the main part of the pension will remain the same:

• service for 20 years - 50%, but a bill is being considered to increase the service life to receive an allowance of up to 25 years;
• with mixed experience add 1%;
• pension for disability or serious illness while on duty - 75%;
• the injury that caused the disability gives an increase of 85%, but cannot exceed 130% of the regular pension paid according to the standards;
• in the event of the death of an employee, which is not related to hostilities, the family of the deceased is paid 30% of the salary for the loss of the breadwinner.

Former employees of the Ministry of Internal Affairs in Russia who retired due to seniority are still the most affluent, since the average salary in the service is 30-40 thousand rubles. regardless of the region.

Changes in the size of payments in 2018

The pension for employees of the Ministry of Internal Affairs in 2018 will not decrease. It was planned to increase the reduction factor to 71% by the beginning of the year, and by 2035 to bring this indicator to 100%. However, so far this part of the calculation of pension payments has remained practically unchanged.

One of the important points that worries all employees of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, both working and those on a well-deserved rest, is the presence of indexation.

Pension indexation is an increase in the parts of the payment based on the decrees of the Government of the Russian Federation in order to compensate for the rise in prices and inflation.

In 2016, there was an increase in the size of the retirement benefit for employees of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, but not in full. In 2017, it is planned to carry out this process, but only by 5.8%, and in 2018 the indexation indicator will remain at the level of 4-5%. At the same time, a large increase in inflation is not planned, so even modest increases will be felt by pensioners of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

The insignificant increase in pension payments is due to the crisis situation in the country, which has not yet been resolved by 2018. The problem of economic recovery primarily concerns socially unprotected citizens who have retired. Therefore, many employees of the Ministry of Internal Affairs continue to work after the official pension payments have been awarded.

Innovations in 2017-2018

No significant changes in the size of the military pension are expected by 2018, however, there are also positive aspects. From January 1, 2017, military pensioners, like ordinary citizens, are entitled to a one-time payment of 5,000 rubles.

Terms of payment of the "13th pension":

• is free in nature: there is no need to go anywhere to get it;
• the accrual takes place according to a certain schedule: in some regions it coincides with the payment of a pension, somewhere not.

Thus, the total payment of the pension for the year will still be increased. And also from January 1, they changed:

• the base rate for employees of the Ministry of Internal Affairs based on the current salary and possible allowances;
• increased official payments equal to half of the annual indexation, which will amount to about 7-8%.

Summing up the changes in the pensions of employees of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, you can draw up a pivot table:

The pension of employees of the Ministry of Internal Affairs in 2018 will not decrease and will be indexed taking into account inflation. The reduction coefficient will also increase slightly, and payments of “13th pensions” will remain.

It is possible to increase the term of service from 20 to 25 years from January 1, 2019 to receive a bonus of 50%. At the same time, the military pension remains the highest among pensioners in Russia.
