Another “bunch” of retroactive beneficiaries, which resulted after a recalculation of their pension, will be paid M. Monday to M. Tuesday.

This group will see their bank account “inflated” by almost 15,000 eurosbased on the relevant estimates, while there are no shortage of cases that will reach 50,000 euros!

The amounts in question should of course be clarified as they are before the withholding tax 20%the 6% healthcare levy, but also any solidarity levy.

Vangelis Durakis writes

So “in waves” and gradually until the end of May, the retroactive 54 months, resulting from the recalculation of their pension, are paid to thousands of unemployed workers. The “baton” is taken by the retired Legal Entities of Public Law – DEKO, in other words of the wider public sector, who will receive whatever retrospectively they are allocated, at the beginning of Holy Week.

To whom they will be paid retroactively

The process is estimated to “close” in May with the former bank employees who will also receive increased amounts of monthly salaries, but also retroactively for 54 months.

In particular, they will be paid retroactively from the recalculation of the pensions of approximately 2,000 beneficiaries of Public Law Legal Entities and with the May pensions, the increases will be retroactively paid to approximately 12,000 former bank employees.

These are old pensioners banks that were left out of recalculations. And in this group the amounts that will be paid are high and according to estimates exceed 15,000 euros and in some cases reach 50,000 euros.

For which pensioners the pending cases have been “closed”.

However, there are also some pensioners, owho state that they are still waiting for their pension to be recalculated based on Law 4670, categories that do not belong to the aforementioned and are mostly employees: As e-EFKA sources point out, not all employees had the right to a pension recalculation and retroactively, but also for those who had this right, the process of readjustment of their salaries and the retroactive payment took place almost immediately.

In essence, officers of the Unified Social Security Agency, they estimate that with the above-mentioned categories of pensioners, any outstanding issues in this field are “closed” and if there are any remaining, these are isolated cases.

For which categories of pensioners is recalculated

It is recalled that the recalculations on the other hand, new pensions are given to those who left with 30 years of insurance and more from 13/5/2016 until 30/9/2019, while for the older pensions they concern those who left with more than 30 years until 12/5/2016.

The difference is that the new pensioners get in hand the increase resulting from the recalculation of the pension, while the old ones will get an increase if the new recalculated pension is greater than the pension obtained by the first recalculation made with the Katrougalos law.

The variation in retrospectives is due to pensions and whether and how much personal difference pensioners have that needs to be zeroed out to see the increase “in pocket”.

It is pointed out that most pensioners who left with 35, 38 and 40 years of insurance will receive them retroactively, as in these years the replacement rates were significantly enhanced by the Vroutsis law.

These recalculations are valid from October 1, 2019 onwards. That is, those who expect increases from him they will be recalculated retrospectively for more than four years, 54 months specifically until April (October 2019 – April 2024).
