The closer a citizen approaches retirement age, the more often he has thoughts: what privileges from the state he is entitled to count on. An ordinary pension at present cannot fully satisfy a person’s needs, so they try not to miss the opportunity to get discounts and privileges. Such a title as a labor veteran helps to significantly reduce costs due to a 50 percent discount on utility bills, free travel and free spa treatment.

Instruction manual

Do not wait for retirement age. You can get the title of Veteran of Labor before retirement. Collect the following documents: passport, TIN, work book, certificate of awarding with medals or orders, certificate of conferment of an honorary title. If there is, take with you the copyright certificate of the invention, obtained patents for the invention, certificates of rationalization proposals and other information that may be taken into consideration by the commission. If you have a medal "In memory of the 850th anniversary of Moscow", then calmly go draw up the title of Veteran of Labor. If you do not have awards, titles or state distinctions in work, then you still have a chance to become a Veteran of Labor. To do this, according to the workbook, you need to have the appropriate experience: for men - 45 years, for women - 40 years. For originals of the listed documents, contact the department of the Social Security Office at the place of registration or at the place of receipt of social benefits. Make an application for the title of Veteran of Labor.

Wait for a decision to assign you a title. The decision is usually made on the day the application is submitted. In case of refusal, you will receive a written justification with the reasons and a list of documents provided. You will be able to take advantage of the benefits provided to the Veteran of Labor only after the state pension is granted or from the moment you reach the age when the right to receive an old-age pension is granted. For men, in 2011 this age is 60 years old, for women - 55 years old.
