Ukrainians explained which incomes are considered for pension calculation.

The Pension Fund explained which income periods are considered in pension calculations. This is important because people's salaries can vary significantly during different periods of their career.

For pension calculations, salaries from the period of insurance employment starting from July 1, 2000 are considered. This data is stored in the Register of Insured Persons, so pensioners do not need to collect additional certificates.

At the pensioner's request, salaries for 60 consecutive calendar months of insurance employment before June 30, 2000 can be considered. This is possible with the confirmation of a salary certificate by primary documents.

If the insurance employment period from July 1, 2000 is less than 60 months, providing information about salaries for the previous period is mandatory.

For military personnel, police officers, and individuals in the ranks and command staff for the period from July 1, 2000 to December 31, 2016, if the data is not available in the register, their salaries are calculated based on a special certificate.

These provisions are based on Article 40 of the Law of Ukraine "On Compulsory State Pension Insurance" dated 09.07.2003 №1058-IV. The Pension Fund emphasizes that these rules help ensure fair pension calculations considering the full employment history of citizens.
