Question: I am entitled to retirement under EYT. My normal retirement date is September 2023. If I retire under EYT, will my pension be lower? Meral K.
Conditions for entitlement to pensions and calculation of pensions are different matters. The law regarding EYT members regulates the conditions for entitlement to old-age pension, and no changes were made to the monthly calculation systems with the EYT regulation. Therefore, the pensions of those who will retire under EYT will be calculated in the same way as those who have retired before. If you retire in March/2023 within the scope of EYT, the number of premium days until your date of departure and your earnings subject to premium are taken into account in your monthly calculation. If you retire in September/2023, your number of premium payment days will be slightly higher, as you will work 6 more months until September this time, and this will have a positive impact on your monthly income. But the monthly calculation system is the same.
CAN I BENEFIT FROM JANUARY AND JULY?
Question: I can retire under EYT. What I am wondering is, if I retire in the first six months of 2023 or in the second half of 2023, can I get the raises in January and July 2023? Cem S.
In 2023, whether a retirement request is made on 1 January or 31 December, the pension is calculated as of 2023/January, taking into account the days worked in 2023 and the earnings subject to premium. If the monthly start date is in the first six months of 2023, this calculated monthly is brought to the monthly start date by 30 percent in 2023/January. In the second six-month period of 2023, the monthly start date is moved to the monthly start date by increasing both the 30 percent rate given in 2023/January and the monthly increase rate to be determined in 2023/July. Therefore, there is no difference between making a request before or following July 2023 in terms of calculating the pension.

Accordingly, you are covered by EYT since you started SSK insurance on 1/10/1996, and since you are still working as a civil servant, you need to complete 9000 premium days to retire under EYT.
