Today, we are interested in the benefits to pensioners inMoscow region and Moscow. It's no secret that in the capital, citizens have more support than in small regions of the country. Therefore, the benefits are slightly different here. In total there are two types of state support - federal and regional. We will study all the benefits available to Muscovites for pensioners. The bulk of them are federal opportunities.

About retirement age

In Russia, retirement for men is carried out at 60 years, for women - at 55. However, many citizens continue to work. We will talk about the unemployed elderly people.

When studying the benefits of pensioners in the Moscow region, it is important to pay attention to their status. A citizen can be:

• veteran;
• employees of the Ministry of Internal Affairs;
• military;
• disabled.

All this has a certain influence on state support. The bulk of retired pensioners is disabled veterans. We will give preference to them.

Taxes

Tax benefits for pensioners of the Moscow region are offered at the federal level. The above mentioned citizens can expect the following advantages:

• exemption from property taxes;
• freedom from personal income tax in respect of certain types of income;
• the deduction in the calculation of the land tax (10 thousand rubles);
• reduction of the tax on transport.

In some cases, the transport tax can be completely abolished. Usually such opportunities are offered to the military, veterans and disabled people.

Public transport

Benefits for working pensioners in the Moscow region are not too different from the bonuses offered to non-working old people. The difference is only in labor benefits. And nothing more.

In Moscow and the Moscow region, older people canfree use of suburban and urban transport. Or receive compensation for the payment of travel. The only exception is a taxi - they pay for them at a full rate.

In addition, our category of beneficiaries has the right to purchase tickets for ships, trains, trains and planes in advance, and even with discounts. Usually the fare is reduced by 1/2.

Some older people can use the trains for free. But this is a rather rare phenomenon.

Housing and utilities

Benefits for non-working pensioners in the Moscow region are offered different. Including in the sphere of housing. In what way are they expressed?

For example, needy citizens can get free housing from the state. Most often, a social employment contract is concluded with them, with the further possibility of privatization.

In addition, in the sphere of public services, pensioners have a lot of benefits. They include:

• reduction of accounts for "communal" from 50%;
• reduction of not less than half the cost of fuel for home furnaces;
• the possibility of installing a home stationary phone without queues and on a charge basis;
• help during the housekeeping of all necessary communications;
• compensation for the use of a home telephone.

All the above bonuses apply tofamily pensioners, if relatives live together. Elderly people are exempt from fees for overhauling homes after 80 years. Until that time, pensioners have the right to compensation.

Payments

Benefits for retired people in the Moscow region do not end there. The thing is that citizens in the capital and in its region are entitled to small premiums.

Namely:

• additional payments, the amount of which is annually indexed and varies (about 1-2 thousand rubles);
• additions to the pension to the subsistence level.

It is not difficult to guess that regional payments are for everyone. A surcharge to the subsistence minimum is made only for needy non-working pensioners. This practice is in all regions of the Russian Federation.

Medical service

Older people are those who need medical care more than others. With age, the human body is not younger, which forces retirees to visit clinics and pharmacies frequently.

Benefits for pensioners in the Moscow region in the field of medicine are as follows:

• payment for travel to the place of treatment;
• maintenance in public clinics free of charge;
• acceptance of some categories of pensioners without a turn by all doctors;
• free services for orthopedics and prosthetics.

In some medical centers, you can evenfree to install dentures. But there is no such possibility in Moscow and Moscow Region. Unless in isolated cases in private clinics. This should be known in a specific medical center.

If a citizen is spent on artificial limbs and rehabilitation materials, he is entitled to payment of the corresponding amount from the country's budget. It is enough to present evidence of expenses incurred.

For singles

What can a lonely pensioner expect in the Moscow region? Benefits for such citizens are offered in large volumes.

State support is expressed as follows:

• allocation of the nurse;
• definition of a person in a boarding house or nursing home;
• targeted assistance.

Of course, all the other benefits of lonely old people are also laid in full. The main thing - to issue them.

Other

We studied the main benefits for pensioners in the Moscow region. What else can this section of the population expect?

Today there are the following methods of support:

• the right to free access to cultural and entertainment centers;
• issuing vouchers to the sanatorium once a year with payment of travel expenses;
• targeted assistance;
• help to those in need.

All this is necessary for retired persons. Non-working citizens have more chances to get additional benefits than those who are employed. In particular, due to salary availability.

For workers

But we will not forget about working pensioners either. This category of persons has a special position in society.

Benefits for pensioners in the Moscow region and in Moscow, like other regions of the country, are as follows:

• the right to additional leave at their own expense;
• registration of the annual paid leave at the time chosen by the pensioner;
• training and professional development at the expense of the employer.

It's all. Some believe that retirees should not work 14 days when they are fired, but this is not at all the case. The dismissal of an elderly person is exactly the same as in the case of a young employee. There are no special rights in this area for pensioners.
