Rosstat will introduce new forms of tracking the number of pensioners and their income

From December 1, Rosstat will work with new forms for tracking the number of pensioners and their pensions. Order was signed November 17.

The first form reflects data on the number of all pensioners and their pensions, the second concerns only non-working pensioners, the third – only working ones. The latter form also looks at your average monthly salary or other income. Data are provided to Rosstat by the territorial bodies of the Pension and Social Insurance Fund. They must arrive on the first day of the month following the reporting period.

Associate Professor of the Faculty of Economics of RUDN University Andrey Girinsky told the agency “Prime”that the new forms reflect in more detail all types of pension provision. In his opinion, this will make it possible to more accurately assess the burden of payments “within the framework of the macroeconomic model, as well as regionally.” According to the expert, it will be possible, if necessary, to more accurately calculate the indexation of pension payments in one or more regions.
