To receive benefits from voluntary pension contributions held in the UAPF for at least 5 years, contributors can apply through the website enpf.kz
In order to improve the quality of the services provided, for the convenience of beneficiaries and save their time, the UAPF has implemented the possibility of submitting an application for the appointment of pension benefits formed from voluntary pension contributions and the investment income accrued on them, which have been in the UAPF for at least five years, remotely - through a personal account on the corporate website of the UAPF.
Thus, in the personal account on the enpf.kz website, the service for submitting applications for the appointment of pension benefits is provided to beneficiaries who have pension savings in the UAPF:
- at the expense of compulsory pension contributions and (or) compulsory occupational pension contributions: to persons with disabilities of groups 1 or 2 for an indefinite period;
- at the expense of VPC:
persons who have reached the age of 50;
persons with disabilities;
persons who have pension savings within the amount of the VPC and the investment income accrued on them, that have been in the UAPF for at least five years.
To submit an application, beneficiaries must have an electronic digital signature. You can also track the execution status of the application for payment registered with UAPF JSC on the website enpf.kz using the service “My applications for benefits / transfers” in the “Electronic Services” section.
Voluntary pension contributions are money that are contributed by contributors (beneficiaries) on their own initiative to the UAPF. They can be made by both individuals in their favor, and individuals and legal entities in favor of a third party. At the same time, the amount and frequency of payment of VPC are established by an individual or legal entity independently.
On May 1 of this year, amendments to the Law of the Republic of Kazakhstan On Pension Provision in the Republic of Kazakhstan entered into force, in accordance with which:
- the basis for opening an individual pension saving account for registering VPC is, among other things, the first VPC received by the UAPF. Thus, the contributor (beneficiary) does not need to visit the UAPF office. The identification of an individual in whose favor the VPC is paid is carried out according to his personal data (full name, IIN, date of birth) specified in the electronic format of the payment order when transferring the VPC, and all the necessary information: about the details of the current identity document of the individual, about place of permanent residence, other information UAPF receives from the relevant information systems of state bodies;
- the right to pension payments from the UAPF at the expense of VPC arises, among other things, for persons who have pension savings within the amount of VPC and the investment income accrued on them, which are in the UAPF for at least five years.
As of August 1, 2021 after the above amendments entered into force, about 2.8 thousand beneficiaries took advantage of the right to receive pension benefits at the expense of VPC held in the UAPF for at least five years by filing at the offices of the UAPF. Now an application for the payment of savings through VPC can be submitted without leaving home.
