Economy Minister Sergio Massa anticipated on Sunday that retirees and pensioners will receive a reinforcement of $37,000 in the months of September, October and November. The ad was part of a new package of measures “to care for families argentines».
In a press conference, Fernando Raverta, head of Anses, confirmed this Monday that it is an extraordinary bonus only for retirees and pensioners who earn a minimum salary.
It is worth noting that from September 2022 to the current month of August, the payment of monthly reinforcements had reached those who had income for an amount equivalent to the minimum having multiplied by two.
What is now arranged implies that many retirees who until now had reinforcement, will no longer receive it.
According to the statistics published by the Social Security Secretariat, there are more than 3 million retirees and pensioners from the general contributory system who earn more than the minimum wage. Raverta, however, stated that of 7.4 million people, 5.1 million will receive the bonus.
To know if the additional will be received, it must be taken into account that the Anses always established that the income ceiling It is for the owner and not for the benefit. That is to say, a person who receives two basic benefits would not access, if that condition is provided once more (It is expected that this will happen).
And, although it was not clarified either, it is understood that supplements will be paid to those who have a gross income of up to $124,460, so that retirees with an income somewhat higher than the minimum do not receive less in hand than those who have the basic income.

In addition to the 23% increase that everyone will receive in September due to the Mobility Law -which is added to the 20 provided in June-, there will be 5.1 million who will receive the reinforcement.
«In this way, the retirees of the minimum are going to be charging above $124,000“, assured Raverta, who pointed out that the year-on-year increase for retirees in this category will be 147%. In detail, the minimum retirement will be $124.460 for the next three months.
Also for retirees, the VAT refund limit for consumption with a debit card will be increased, which will quadruple, going from $4,000 to $18,000 per month. The refund is 15% on total purchases in pharmacies, shops and wholesalers.
To access the benefit, retirees or pensioners will only need to pay with the debit card associated with the account in which they collect their credit, and
