Title: Iran’s Social Security Organization Announces Pension Payment Schedule and Arrears Clearance Plan
A Phased Approach to Settling Pension Arrears
The Iranian Social Security Organization has outlined its schedule for settling outstanding pension payments, with the third phase of arrears clearance set for completion by mid-Aban 1404 (approximately early November 2025). This announcement, detailed by a provincial director, addresses the remaining arrears stemming from recent pension adjustments and increases.
While pensioners receiving up to 20 million tomans have had their arrears fully settled in two initial phases, the clearance for those with higher pensions and for survivors has experienced delays due to liquidity considerations. The organization has now committed to resolving these remaining payments by the specified date, with a broader goal of clearing all arrears by the end of the upcoming autumn.
New Payment Schedule for Monthly Pensions
In a move to optimize financial management, the Social Security Organization has also implemented a new schedule for depositing monthly pensions. Payments for the month of Mehr will now be deposited during the final three days of the month (28th to 30th), organized according to the beneficiaries’ last names. Officials emphasize that this structural change is designed to enhance the security and efficiency of the payment process, manage high transaction volumes, and prevent disruptions to the national banking network. They have clarified that this is not a delay in payment but a redistribution of the deposit timeline, with no impact on the total pension amount.
Transparency and Access to Information
To ensure clarity and allow for personal financial planning, pensioners are directed to official channels for precise payment dates and details. The organization’s non-attendance services portal (es.tamin.ir) and the “Tamin Man” mobile application provide up-to-date information on payment status, monthly slips, and official announcements. The public relations center (phone number 1420) is also available for any inquiries or issues.
The Social Security Organization has reaffirmed its commitment to regular, transparent, and timely pension disbursements as part of its broader financial policies. These operational adjustments are part of ongoing efforts to improve service delivery and maintain the stability of the social security system for its millions of beneficiaries.
