In addition to the basic salary, the Government has been providing additional support for retirees and pensioners with lower incomes.If the bonus of up to $70,000 is maintained in March, those who receive the minimum retirement could reach a total income of $441,572.40.This reinforcement is paid in an extraordinary manner and is not part of the pension assets, so it is not incorporated into the calculation of future increases.

The current updating mechanism establishes that salaries are increased every month taking inflation from two months ago as a reference.In this case, the January CPI is what determines the amounts that will be charged in March. The system replaced the previous quarterly formulas and seeks to ensure that pension income more directly follows the evolution of prices.

The additional reinforcement for the lowest salaries is once again key in the total income of retirees (NA)

Under this scheme, each new inflation data automatically impacts retirements, pensions and allowances paid by the National Social Security Administration (Anses).The adjustment is applied without the need for additional resolutions, although extraordinary reinforcements, such as the bonus, are defined per month.

Non-contributory pensions for disability or old age will be updated to approximately $258,677.18, while with the bonus the total amount would be around $330,705.03.

Meanwhile, the pension for mothers of seven children will be equal to the minimum retirement, with an asset of $369,560.34, and could reach $441,572.40 if the extraordinary reinforcement is added.

The same percentage increase applies to family and social allowances.The Universal Child Allowance (AUH) will rise to $132,796.38 per child, while the AUH for disability will reach $432,415.18.

This scheme is supported by the decree that reformed pension mobility and established monthly indexation according to official inflation.The regulations establish that salaries are adjusted automatically, without limits or staggering, although bonuses continue to depend on administrative decisions.
