Indexing of pensions and annuities 2024: how much will the lowest pension be?

Another indexation of benefits: How much will the 13th and 14th pensions be in 2024?

The minimum pension amount is also important because of the 13th pension, which is the same pension for all retirees – exactly the 13th pension amount.

So in 2024 it will be so A minimum of PLN 1,783.82 and PLN 1,623.28 on hand.. It may also be more if the smallest benefits are indexed in terms of amounts.

The fourteenth pension, as is evident from this year’s pension, should not be the minimum amount of pension, but rather the highest. However, the amount of the lowest pension in a given year is a guarantee that this second additional benefit in the year will amount to at least this amount for retirees and pensioners who receive the lowest amounts from the ZUS (up to a total of PLN 2,900; it is then reduced on a zloty by zloty basis). ).

New pensions after second indexation: why they are less favorable

How much will the new pensions be? We show the calculation models in the table above. There are the current lump sum pension amounts, the indexation amount – that is, how much the lump sum will increase from 1 March 2024 and how much the new lump sum will be from March 2024 to February 2025.

Here we present the second table – the total of the new pensions and subsequent reductions, which ultimately results in what the retiree receives.

Why is there a difference between the gross amount of the new pension after the indexation and the net amount, that is, the amount that the pensioner will receive in his bank account or that the postman will bring to him?

All retirees pay 9% of their pension. Health insurance premiums. This is the first reduction.

Then there is an advance payment for personal income tax – PIT. However, the tax itself is only due after the annual taxable income exceeds PLN 30,000.

Therefore, pensioners receive lump sums of less than 2.8 thousand PLN per month. There is a second reduction – advance payment of taxes. In our table of sample calculations, it is averaged for the month – in practice, in most cases, the deductions will be slightly lower or higher, because the algorithm calculating the transfer from ZUS will take into account the reduction of the corresponding advance of the tax-free amount for the whole year. But everything will be balanced down to a penny in settlement throughout the year.
