    What is a Disability Pension?

    The system for receiving material support has a clear gradation system: so the receipt of pensions and social benefits depends on several factors.

    All types of pensions are accrued on the basis of disability groups established. There are four groups of all:

    • disabled children, which include children and persons under 18 years of age with persistent health disorders;
    • Group I - adults with persistent health disorders that require outside help in caring for themselves;
    • II-I - persons who are able to take care of themselves and who can work only if special, very individual conditions are created for them;
    • III-rd - partially able-bodied persons who cannot work in their main specialty, due to illness or due to sanitary and epidemiological requirements.

    In addition to the main type of accruals, there are special unified cash payments (UDV), which are the monetary analogue of benefits and are accrued upon refusal of benefits in kind. This type of payment is made to the same account as the main amount of the pension. For its accrual, it is enough to apply to the FIU department with an application.

    For example, in 2015, it can be accruedII group:

    • social: 4769.09 rubles - upon the onset of disability in adulthood and 9538.20 r. – upon the onset of disability in childhood (this provision has been in force since 2015);
    • labor: 4383.09 p.

    And also to her EDV for a disabled person of the II group (2140.74 r). If there are benefits for the liquidator of the Chernobyl accident, UDV will also be accrued (2249.74 rubles).

    If there are dependents, accruals will be made depending on their number (about 1 thousand rubles for each). This amount is usually calculated in the amount of the main (basic) pension. In case of refusal from the social package, an accrual will be made in the amount of: 930.12 rubles.

    On the grounds and types of disability payments

    The question arises, in what cases is a labor pension accrued, and when is a social one? The type of payment depends on three factors:

    • payment of contributions to insurance funds;
    • no intentional self-mutilation;
    • the absence of a deliberate crime related to the injury.

    Labor

    For 2015, the base amount (B) amounted to 4383.09 rubles. The basis for its calculation is the work (insurance) experience of a disabled person, the amount depends on the accumulated sum insured, as well as the number of dependents.

    The calculation of other indicators is carried out according to a given formula, which takes into account a number of factors:

    • the amount of the estimated insurance capital (IC) on the day of registration of disability benefits;
    • the number of months of payment of the old-age pension (T) (since 2013 it is 228 months);
    • the standard duration of the insurance period (K), at the age of 19 it is 12 months and increases every year by 4 months, but cannot exceed 180 months.

    The whole formula looks like this: PC / (TxK) + B

    Important! In some cases, this calculated amount is less than the estimated social pension. Here, the disabled person should choose the second type of payment.

    Attention! A prerequisite for the calculation of a labor pension will be the absence of intentional self-mutilation and a deliberate crime that caused persistent health disorders.

    Social

    Social pension is accrued in cases where there is no possibility of accruing labor. Such cases include:

    • existence of reasons specified by the legislator
    • lower labor pension compared to the social
    • lack of work experience

    When calculating the social pension, the number of dependents will also be taken into account, the disability group will be the base, and the UDV will be calculated. Other payments will be made in accordance with the regulations.

    Important! Social payments are indexed only once a year, while labor and state payments are indexed twice.

    State

    This type of pension depends on factors prescribed by law. In other words, only persons subject to certain government decrees (participants in the blockade of Leningrad, liquidators of the Chernobyl accident) can receive it.

    The group of citizens receiving state payments is the smallest. The pension, in accordance with a specific resolution, can be increased from 100 to 300% compared to the due labor pension.

    About the amount of disability pensions

    The amount of payments directly depends on the group of disability, the presence of dependents will also be a mandatory component for calculating the basic pension, in addition, the UDV also applies to mandatory accruals. So, in 2015, the amount of social pensions for the disabled was:

    • Group I (since childhood) - 11445.68 rubles. /month;
    • II-I (from childhood) I-I group - 9538.20 rub. / month;
    • II group - 4769.09 rub. / month;
    • III-I - 4053.74 rubles. / month

    Attention: the legislator has provided that the 2nd from childhood and the 1st general have the same amount of social pension.


    UDV payments in 2015 amounted to:

    • Group I - 3137.60 rub. / month;
    • II-I - 2240.70 rub. / month;
    • III-I - 1793.70 rub. / month;
    • disabled children - 2240.74 rubles. /month

    Important! These payments are calculated taking into account the rejection of the social package, its amount in 2015 amounted to 930.12 rubles. /month (same for all groups).
