If a person continues to work upon reaching retirement age and applying for a pension, this does not deprive him of the right to a pension due to him and does not serve as a basis for reducing its size. At the same time, a working pensioner has the right to increase it according to the results of each calendar year on the basis of deductions received during this time on a pension account from his employer.
You will need
- - passport;
- - certificate of compulsory pension insurance;
- - A copy of the work book, certified by the employer, or other documents confirming the length of service;
- - photographs (not in all cases).
Instruction manual
1
After reaching the retirement age (60 years for men and 55 for women; beneficiaries may have lower age limits, but in general it is very likely that the retirement age will increase to 65 and 60 years, respectively) to the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation at the place of residence, stay or actual residence. If you live abroad, send copies of the necessary documents by mail to the central office of the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation. By law, you have the right to apply for the accrual of a retirement pension both immediately after retirement age and later - at any time when you consider it necessary.

Provide your passport, certificate of mandatory pension insurance and all available documentary proofs of employment history to the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation branch: the original of the work book or a copy certified by the employer, certificates of average earnings before 2002 (if applicable to your case) and, if necessary, other papers pension fund requirement.
3
Contact the social welfare department of your area with a passport and papers from the Pension Fund, if the legislation of the region where you are registered provides for the issuance of social cards for pensioners. Depending on the region, you may also need a photo, although in a number of subjects of the Russian Federation, in particular in Moscow, you will be photographed directly in the office. A social card usually gives you the right to free use of public transport and discounts at a number of shops, and also serves as a confirmation of a number of other benefits that are due to you.
4
Choose the method of receiving a pension that is convenient for you: at the post office (you have the right to choose whether to come for it yourself or instruct the postman to bring it to your home), to a bank account or card of Sberbank and a number of other credit organizations. If necessary, open a pension card or account and provide the details to the branch of the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation.
5
Visit the office of the Pension Fund if after the next calendar year in which you continued to work after retirement, you did not increase it. You should not submit any applications for the recalculation of pensions; the Pension Fund is obliged to recalculate it yourself on the basis of information received from your employer. But if for some reason he did not do this, it will never be superfluous to remind him of himself.
