How to apply for a retirement pension for a teacher. Seniority pension for teachers: controversial points

The main part of the population retires according to the general rules, but there are professions that give the right to a retirement pension. About what it is and to whom such a pension is assigned, we will describe in detail below.

A superannuation pension is an opportunity to retire earlier than the general term. This right is prescribed by law for only a few professions and is directly related to seniority. Not only the time of retirement depends on the length of service, but also its size - it is directly proportional to the hours worked.

Who is entitled to a retirement pension?

According to the current legislation, the superannuation pension is provided:

military personnel
government civil servants
employees of the Ministry of Internal Affairs
cosmonauts
flight test personnel

It should be noted that medical workers and employees of educational institutions are not specified by law as subjects entitled to retire on a seniority basis. However, this category of workers may be assigned an old-age labor pension ahead of schedule.
There are exceptions to this rule: work as a teacher in a rural school (with the exception of evening and open schools), a primary school teacher in a gymnasium is included in the length of service, regardless of the volume of the teaching load; lyceum; Suvorov military school; cadet corps or school; in the naval cadet corps; Nakhimov Naval School.

Work as a teacher with children in need of medical, social and psychological and pedagogical assistance, as well as in organizations for children with disabilities, boarding schools for children with physical disabilities, etc., as well as work as a music director, are counted in the experience only if subject to the fulfillment of the norm of working hours established for the position held.

So, we see that retirement by seniority has its own specifics. The calculation of length of service seems to be a particularly responsible matter, since not only the size of the future pension, but also the very right to retire according to the length of service depends on it. In this regard, it is especially important to submit to the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation all documents confirming that you have such a right.

The state pension for long service is assigned to federal civil servants, military personnel, cosmonauts and flight test personnel.

Citizens can apply for a pension at any time after the right to it arises.

In addition, a trusted person can receive a pension for a pensioner. The payment of a pension under a power of attorney, the validity of which exceeds one year, is made during the entire period of validity of the power of attorney, provided that the pensioner annually confirms the fact of registration at the place of receipt of the pension.

Pension delivery methods:

1. via Russian Post- You can receive a pension at home or on your own at the post office of your place of residence. In this case, each pensioner is set the date of receipt of the pension in accordance with the delivery schedule, while the pension can be paid later than the established date within the delivery period. It is better to find out the end date of the payment period in advance, since each post office has its own. If the pension is not received within six months, then its payment is suspended, and it will be necessary to write an application to your Pension Fund in order to resume payment;

2. through a bank - you can receive a pension at the cash desk of a bank branch or issue a bank card (from 07/01/2017, only cards of the MIR national payment system are issued for the payment of a pension) and withdraw funds through an ATM. Delivery of the pension for the current month to the account is made on the day of receipt of funds from the territorial body of the Pension Fund of Russia. You can withdraw your money from your bank account any day after they are credited. Crediting to the account of a pensioner in a credit institution is carried out without charging a commission.

IMPORTANT! pensioners currently receiving pensions to accounts opened with credit institutions in the Russian Federation, which provide for transactions using payment cards of other payment systems, will be transferred to the MIR national payment system as their current bank cards expire;

3. through an organization that delivers pensions- you can receive a pension at home or independently in this organization. A complete list of such organizations in your region (including those delivering pensions to your home) is at the disposal of the territorial body of the Pension Fund of Russia. The procedure for paying a pension through another organization engaged in the delivery of pensions is the same as through a post office.

To choose a delivery method or change it, you need to notify the FIU about this in any way convenient for you:
- in writing, by submitting an application to the territorial body of the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation that assigned you a pension (application form for choosing the method of delivering a pension);
- in electronic form, by submitting an appropriate application through the PFR website and the "Single portal of state and municipal services (functions)".
Entitlement to two pensions

Citizens from among the cosmonauts can be established a state pension for long service and an old-age insurance pension (with the exception of a fixed payment to an insurance pension) if there are conditions for its appointment.

Representatives of educational specialties belong to the group of persons who have a legal advantage in receiving an old-age pension before the established age limits of 55 and 60 years, respectively - women and men.

But with the onset of the apotheosis of reformist innovations in the framework of pension provision, many teachers are interested in questions related to how to correct the currently preferential pension for a teacher, what news has appeared on this topic. Further, the article will consider the basic principles for the distribution of preferential pensions for teachers by length of service and news events in the spectrum of recent changes.

The legal framework for preferential pedagogical pensions is quite extensive.

Government Decree No. 781 of October 29, 2002
Order of the Ministry of Education and Science of the Russian Federation N 1601 of December 22, 2014

This legal platform will help employees of educational institutions in understanding the procedure for registering a pension under the new law.

What is the preferential experience of a teacher for retirement

Preferential teaching service for retirement is calculated as twenty-five years of work in general educational children's departments.

But, a worker in the educational sphere is supposed to work out the required number of standard hours at the appropriate salary rate, approved by Order of the Ministry of Education No. 1601 of December 22, 2014. The maximum limit of standard hours is 36 hours per week, the minimum is 18.

A member of the teaching staff of general education departments must work at least 240 hours a year, and in secondary vocational institutions - 720 hours.

More detailed material can be found in the above Order of the Ministry of Education.

List of teaching positions that give the right to a preferential pension

The preferential opportunity to legally receive a retirement pension for teachers is fixed in the Federal Law No. 173 of December 17, 2001 “On labor pensions in the Russian Federation”. But not all categories of positions in the pedagogical sphere can use this right.

Such a list includes:

The list presented is far from complete; before starting to collect documents for applying to the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation, it is advisable to familiarize yourself with the original of the relevant Decree.

Does a teacher of additional education have the right to a preferential pension?

The Government of the Russian Federation No. 781 dated October 29, 2002 reflects the following, that the position of "teacher of additional education" is included in the above list, which makes it possible to issue an old-age labor pension ahead of schedule for employees engaged in pedagogical activities in departments for children.

It follows from this that a teacher of additional education has the right to receive a preferential allowance, subject to certain conditions:

work experience in a position from the above list as of 01/01/2001 - from 16 years 8 months;
the presence of a documented fact of work from 11/01/1999 to 12/31/2000 without presenting a requirement for duration in a position in an institution from the list.

It is worth remembering that the reflection of these two circumstances in the work book is mandatory. A teacher of additional education must work 18 hours per week.

List of documents for a preferential pension for teachers

An employee of pedagogical work, in order to assign an early retirement pension, must submit the following register of documents to the branch of the Pension Fund located directly in his area of residence:

a completed application for this type of pension;
passport of a citizen of the Russian Federation with photocopies of the sheets necessary for registration;
work book and its copy;
military ID, if the applicant is a man;
insurance number of an individual insurance account (SNILS);
birth certificate of the child (if the teacher has children);
salary certificate for any five years in a row.

A future pensioner can apply to the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation personally, through his representative, who has a power of attorney issued by a notary for any person of his choice or for an employee of the educational institution where the teacher works.

The above documentary package is submitted to the responsible specialist of the Pension Fund no later than 30 days before the start of retirement.

Important! If inaccuracies are found in the documents provided, the teacher will need to provide additional supporting facts in writing.

Sample certificate for a preferential pension for a teacher

To certify his privileged experience, the teacher must, together with the documents listed above, provide a certificate specifying the preferential focus of work, giving the privilege of early retirement. Without this completed form, the applicant will be denied a preferential pension.

The employer, when filling out the form of a certificate of the preferential nature of work, is guided by Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 516 of July 11, 2002, which highlights the norms for calculating periods of work that give the right to early accrual of an old-age pension.

There is no legalized state form of such a certificate, the employer can develop his own variation of the form. Below is a sample certificate for a preferential pension for a teacher.

Attention! Any corrections and blots in the reference form are unacceptable, as an employee of the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation will not accept such a document.

Calculation of preferential pension for teachers

The basis for calculating the preferential pension for teachers is a certificate of income for 60 consecutive months, which the future pensioner submits to the local branch of the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation. Now calculations of pension provision are made on the basis of the ratio of the funded and insured parts of the benefit.

For the appointment of an early pension, it is important to have an individual pension coefficient (IPC). Its share increases annually by 2.4 percent, for example, in 2016 it was 9%, and in 2017 it was already 11.4%. Ultimately, the size of the IPC by 2025 should reach 30%.

Important! Indexing of the size of the Individual Pension Coefficient takes place annually on February 1 for the amount of inflation and product growth.

The basic formula for calculating the preferential pension for teachers by length of service is as follows:

IPC x Cost of 1 Pension Point + Fixed Amount = Pension

IPC - an individual pension coefficient in the amount of, say, 218 points.

The cost of 1 p.b. in 2018 is 81 rubles 49 kopecks.

The fixed amount at present, taking into account the indexation of 3.7%, is presented in the amount of 4,982 rubles 90 kopecks.

The result is:

218 x 81.49 + 4982.9 \u003d 24,927 rubles 72 kopecks.

In addition to the resulting amount, there may still be bonuses, for example, for an academic degree or for work in the Far North and equivalent areas.

Pension provision is calculated individually, taking into account a specific case, but its value cannot be less than 40% of the average teacher's remuneration.

Changes in the preferential pension for teachers based on length of service in connection with the pension reform

The pension reform starting in 2019 will directly affect representatives of pedagogical work. What will change in the seniority of teachers? The innovations already adopted by the State Duma and entered into legal force only affected the possibility of using the superannuation calculated by him.

For example, a teacher who completes the length of service in 2019 will be able to apply for the accrual of pension payments in a year, i.e. in 2020 and so on in ascending order until this period reaches 8 years.

Important! The size of the preferential insurance period for teachers remains unchanged - 25 years.

But after the official acquisition of an early old-age pension, he loses the opportunity to continue his teaching path, except for work in private structures.

Starting from 2030, workers in educational circles will retire in old age, according to the rules common to all. Consequently, the procedure for calculating this allowance will also undergo changes.

But the question of whether the preferential pension will be left to teachers after the end of the transitional reform period of the country's pension system will occupy the thoughts of our teachers for a long time to come.

Conclusion

Now teachers are retiring on the basis of seniority ahead of schedule - at 45-50 years old, but even after they continue to work. And this is approximately 80% of the teaching staff of Russian educational institutions.

And if we start from the currently accepted indicator of the age limit for ordinary pensioners, teachers will receive this status five years earlier than ordinary citizens. Yes, and the new legislation now gives the teacher the right to continue to engage in teaching work legally after the grace period has been worked out.

Whether there will be a further reformist review of preferential pensions for teachers based on length of service, time will tell.

Add a comment

Russian legislation allows teachers and other educational workers to retire earlier than the main period, only on the basis of 25 years of teaching experience.

In fact, this is the same labor, only the employee whose work activity falls under certain conditions has the right to receive it.

Legislative framework and recent changes

Educational workers have the opportunity to take a legal vacation in old age much earlier than other categories of citizens.

This right is indicated by the current Russian legislation. For those who applied for a pension before 2001, the basis was:

The total teaching experience of the employee is 25 years and age has nothing to do with it.

The first changes in the legal documents relating to the work and pension provision of teachers were adopted in 2001. Then for the first time accruals for length of service were abolished - they were replaced by preferential pension payments by age. The state retained the right of the teacher to retire early for a well-deserved rest.

In 2015, changes again affected education employees. The salary that was accrued to the teacher is not taken into account when calculating the entire pension content. Like other categories of the country's population, teachers' pensions can be influenced by only pension funds- the more of them, the higher the payments by age.

In February 2016, amendments were made to the previous legislation, according to which only those years that the teacher spent on his education, that is, the period of his studies in higher educational institutions of Russia, will be included in 25 years of experience. At the same time, pedagogical work should be carried out both before the start of studies and after its completion.

If the seniority allowance is already being paid, the person claiming the benefits is obliged to stop working, and in the future his right to educational work is lost. Directly the principle of calculating pensions has not changed.

Categories of teaching staff

Oddly enough, not all categories of workers in the pedagogical sphere may have the right to a preferential pension. The list of professions is prescribed in Law No. 173.

It includes the following categories of workers:

In addition to the list of professions, the law provides for list of educational institutions:

schools and lyceums;
gymnasiums with in-depth study of subjects;
cadet corps;
naval schools (Suvorov and Nakhimov);
orphanages;
boarding schools for children under the age of majority;
sanatorium-type schools;
kindergartens and nurseries;
music and ballet schools;
institutions of additional education.

Thus, before you start applying for a preferential pension, you should also pay attention to the place of work. By profession, you can fit into the category of beneficiaries, but by the name of the institution - no. Only a thorough check of the entries in the work book and their comparison with the legislative list can protect against such a situation.

Almost every year, amendments and changes are made to the Law that is in force on a permanent basis. The names of institutions and positions are changed and supplemented, for example:

the privileged category of educators includes all varieties of this position: a school educator, an aftercare teacher, a kindergarten, a nursery, a boarding school, and the like;
the position of a music worker may have the modern name of a music teacher or head of a music class;
the name gymnasium includes such names as school-lyceum and school-gymnasium;
Since 2007, the boarding school for mentally retarded children has also had a second name - the Children's Psychoneurological Boarding House.

Since 2001, not only teachers, but also pedagogical workers of additional education, which simultaneously have the following conditions:

work experience as of 01.01.01 must be at least 16 years and 8 months. Moreover, all years of work should have been held in the appropriate position and institution prescribed by law;
the fact of work in the additional field of education must be confirmed in the period from 11/01/99 to 12/31/2000.

Exit Conditions

A pedagogical worker will be able to issue a preferential pension only if during his labor activity the conditions agreed by law were met:

Firstly, work experience in the field of education should not be less than 25 years.
Secondly, all these years, a person had to work full time, and the employer had to pay insurance premiums to the Pension Fund of Russia. The payment of insurance premiums applies to both periods of temporary work capacity.
Thirdly, for women it is not included in the experience of more than one and a half years. But if the teaching practice was started before September 2000, all this will be included in the experience.

Hours of work

Until 09/01/2000, when registering a preferential pension, the development of the prescribed working hours was not taken into account.

Accounting for the study load went after this date. According to labor law, an employee applying for a preferential old-age pension had to work 6 hours a week, 240 a year.

Those teachers who work in secondary vocational institutions must work 360 hours a year. However, for elementary teachers and those who work in, such an amount of work does not apply and in no way affects the calculation of pensions.

Periods taken into account when taking early retirement

One of the conditions for obtaining a preferential pension is the total length of teaching experience. He must be at least 25 years old.

According to current legislation experience includes the following periods of work:

time of activity equivalent to a full working day and confirmed by insurance deductions;
temporary unemployed period;
time allotted for annual rest;
the time of study in educational institutions, if the teacher, before and after the training, worked in the field of education, and his position is prescribed in the Law of the Russian Federation.

Calculation procedure

The calculation of the preferential pension of the teacher takes place on the basis of the submitted certificate, which reflects the person's salary.

In recent years, the calculation is based on the size of the funded part and the insurance part. This is due to the transition to a new pension system.

In each case, the pension is calculated individually, however, payments cannot be less than 40% of the teacher's average salary.

The procedure for obtaining and the list of required documents

In order to start the procedure for obtaining a preferential pension, a teacher needs to visit regional branch of the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation either where he is registered, or where he really lives, and submit the relevant documents in this case. Moreover, this can be done either by contacting the fund personally or by sending a representative there, the status of which will be confirmed by a legally certified power of attorney. Recently, you can not visit the organization at all, but use public services via the Internet on the portal of the same name.

In order for the issue of granting a pension on preferential terms to be resolved, the future pensioner is obliged to provide to the Pension Fund next package of documents:

Russian passport confirming identity;
a work book of a pedagogical worker, which reflects the entries in accordance with the legislation in force in the country;
military ID (for men applying for a pension, a mandatory document);
birth registration certificate;
application for early retirement benefits.

This package is standard for all territorial districts of Russia. However, one must be prepared for the fact that the Fund's employees may be asked to bring documents and certificates clarifying the nature of labor activity.

The submitted application and the attached package of documents, on the basis of the current legislation, are considered within 10 days.

So, every teacher or employee of additional education has the opportunity to retire much earlier if he meets the conditions prescribed by law. For the majority, the right given by the state is important. Most often, teachers retire at the age of 40-45, but not all of them are ready to quit their favorite job.

FAQ

Women teachers are often concerned about the question whether maternity leave, as well as leave to care for a child, is included in the teaching experience, which is necessary to determine the period of pedagogical activity.

In this case, there is paragraph 21 of the Clarifications of the Ministry of Labor of the Russian Federation of May 22, 1996 “On the procedure for applying the Lists of industries, jobs, professions, positions and indicators, giving in accordance with Articles 12, 78 and 78.1 of the RSFSR Law “On State Pensions in the RSFSR” the right to an old-age pension in connection with special working conditions and a pension for long service”, approved by the Decree of the Ministry of Labor of the Russian Federation of May 22, 1996 (ed.) No. 29, in accordance with which a special seniority, giving the right to a pension due to special working conditions, the period of women being on leave to care for a child is included, if this leave took place until October 06, 1992 , i.e. until the entry into force of the Law of the Russian Federation of September 25, 1992 No. 3543-1 "On Amendments and Additions to the Code of Labor Laws of the Russian Federation." The period of a woman's stay on such a vacation after 06.10.1992 no longer included in teaching experience.

In addition, according to the Explanation of the Plenum of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation dated December 20, 2005 No. 25 “On some issues that arose with the courts when considering cases related to the exercise by citizens of the right to labor pensions” when resolving disputes that arose in connection with the non-inclusion of women in the experience work in the specialty of the period of being on parental leave in case of early appointment of an old-age pension, it was established that if the specified period took place before 06.10.1992, then it is subject to inclusion in the length of service in the specialty, regardless of the time the woman applied for a pension entitlement to early retirement pensions.

The second question that concerns citizens is whether the period of study in educational institutions of higher and secondary education is included in the experience of pedagogical activity. In this matter, too, everything is not so clear.

Male educators are concerned about Will military service be included in preferential service?, and here the answer is as follows. Until 1991, the Decree of the Council of Ministers of the USSR of December 17, 1959 No. 1397, approved by the Regulations on the procedure for calculating the length of service for assigning pensions for length of service to workers in education and health, was in force, paragraph 1 of which provided that teachers, doctors and other workers in education and health in the length of service work in the specialty, in addition to work in institutions, organizations and positions, work in which gives the right to a pension for length of service, service in the Armed Forces of the USSR is counted.

What is the order in 2019?

In connection with the large-scale pension reform in the country, starting from 2019, the requirements for the length of service of teachers will not change, but after the end of the transition period (2019-2023), a teacher will be able to become a pensioner only 5 years after working out 25 years of experience.

The new condition will be introduced gradually. If a teacher has completed 25 years of service in 2019, then the right to a preferential pension is deferred for 6 months from the date when the experience became exactly 25 years.

Another example, a kindergarten teacher develops a teaching experience of 25 years - on January 10, 2020, in connection with this, the right to a preferential pension arises on July 10, 2021 (+18 months).
