215 thousand Nizhny Novgorod residents will receive a pension increase in August.

      On August 3, 2026, 09:06 Society The recalculation of pensions will take place in August in the Nizhny Novgorod region. As reported by the press service of the regional branch of the Social Fund, it will affect working pensioners for whom employers paid insurance contributions to the Social Fund in 2025. Such indexing occurs every year in the last month of summer and is officially called the recalculation of labor rights. Pensioners receiving disability benefits will also receive an increase. Changes will also affect payments for the loss of a breadwinner, but only if previously unaccounted insurance contributions from the employer were credited to the deceased's personal account. The recalculation will be carried out automatically, without the need to submit applications. As a result of the August review, payments will increase for 215,000 pensioners in the region. The amount of the increase depends on the salary. The higher the official salary, the more will be added to the pension. A maximum of up to three pension coefficients can be received. Their value is determined by the year of retirement. In 2026, one coefficient is equal to 156 rubles and 76 kopecks. You can find out how many points have already been accumulated through your personal account on the public services portal. To do this, simply enter "Extract from ILS" in the search. The document will appear in notifications or will be sent to your email. Payments considering the recalculation will be transferred in August according to the usual pension delivery schedule.
