A Staged Approach to Pension Adjustments
The Social Security Organization of Iran is continuing its phased implementation of annual pension adjustments and arrears, with the third and final payment stage currently pending. This systematic approach, designed to ensure the smooth operation of payment systems and effective resource management, has been met with anticipation by the nation’s retirees.
The process of disbursing arrears related to the annual salary adjustment, retroactive to the start of the current Iranian year (March 2024), is being executed in a structured manner. The first phase, completed in early September, successfully covered retirees with total incomes up to a specific threshold, as well as all disability pensioners. The second phase was subsequently distributed alongside September’s regular pension payments.
Awaiting the Final Disbursement
The focus is now on the forthcoming third phase, which will include retirees with higher income brackets and survivor pension recipients. While initial timelines projected this final disbursement for the very beginning of the current month, the organization is finalizing the process.
In an official communication, the Social Security Organization has clarified that the third phase will be executed following the completion of the September salary payments. The organization has assured beneficiaries that the disbursement is imminent and will be completed promptly, enabling comprehensive access to the adjusted benefits.
Ensuring Accessibility and Information
To facilitate easy access to payment information and prevent system overload, the Social Security Organization has directed retirees to its digital platforms. From the beginning of the current month, retirees can obtain their pay slips and review their account details through the non-attendance website es.tamin.ir or the dedicated mobile application, “Tamin Man.” This digital initiative aims to provide seamless and continuous service to all pensioners.
The organization remains committed to fulfilling its obligations to retirees, acknowledging the importance of these payments for household economic planning. The completion of this third payment phase will finalize the arrears from the beginning of the year, providing financial closure for this adjustment cycle.
