In two doses the personal difference will be removed for approximately 640,000 pensioners In order to open the door to the annual increases in pensions that have been deprived of these pensioners who maintain a high personal difference for three years, taking in place the personal difference of 100-200 euros last year.
Removing in two doses means that the personal difference will be reduced by 50% in 2026 while the remaining 50% will be abolished in 2027.
The budgetary margins as proven by the prime minister’s announcements Kyriakou Mitsotakis They did not allow the instantly abolition of personal difference while it was possible, as a result, and the expansion of the criteria (age and income) in order to receive more low -income pension allowances, which was established as a permanent measure in November.
In practice what impact will the abolition of personal difference in two doses for retirees have?
For example, a retiree due to the old age of IKA with 25 to 27 years of insurance receives a total pension of 883 euros with a personal difference of 42 euros. With her cut 50%, the pensioner will maintain a personal difference of 21 euros and get closer to the source of the growth without being entitled to 2026.
The cut of personal difference in two doses favor those who have a small personal difference that will be reset in 2026 and enter the cycle of increases. At the same time, it also favors those who have a great personal difference, which will account for it drastically, while with the current regime they will have to wait 5-10 years in order to reset the personal difference. The largest personal difference of up to 450 euros is still recorded today by former UAE pensioners.
What is going on today: With accounting increase every year due to annual increases, these pensioners left the accounting difference by paving the way to increases. It is estimated that about 90,000 pensioners are entitled to increases each year. According to the projections made by the competent services of EFKA, if the same rate of pensions continue, the next two years are likely to reset their personal difference others 240,000 – 250,000 pensioners.
However, many hundreds of thousands still have a great personal difference will take 5 to 10 years to offset the personal difference with annual accounting increases and put under the umbrella of real pocket increases.
At the same time, Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis did not announce a new housing program “My Home”, however, citing the promotion of social consideration and the utilization of public real estate for housing citizens.
In particular, he stressed that 2000 houses will be built in Athens and Patras, which will be available by 25% to uniforms and 75% of citizens who do not have a first home.
