Streamlined Payment Process
According to the released timetable, the disbursement of funds will follow a structured, alphabetical system designed to coordinate with the national banking network and streamline the payment process. This new system, implemented since the start of the current Iranian year, represents a modernization of the previous payment window, which spanned from the 20th of the month to the end.
A senior official from the pension funds was quoted emphasizing that the adjustment aims to enhance administrative efficiency and ensure the smooth operation of financial systems serving millions of retirees. All payments are guaranteed to be completed by the end of the day on November 21.
Payment Schedule at a Glance
Pensioners can expect their funds according to the following schedule:
- Surnames A to Ch: Wednesday, November 19, 2025
- Surnames H to Sh: Thursday, November 20, 2025
- Surnames S to Y: Friday, November 21, 2025
Financial Adjustments and Support
The pension amounts for Aban 1404 have been calculated based on the directives of the Supreme Labor Council. Key adjustments include:
- A 32% increase for pensions that previously exceeded 7,166,000 Tomans.
