The UAPF reminds that persons who have pension savings in the UAPF, formed through compulsory pension contributions and (or) compulsory occupational pension contributions, and who have reached the generally established retirement age, as well as persons with disabilities of the first and second groups, if the disability is established indefinitely, have the right to receive pension benefits from the UAPF according to the established schedule.
Let us remind you that people who have reached the generally established retirement age can receive an old-age pension: men upon reaching 63 years of age, women upon reaching 61 years of age in 2024.
Pension benefits from the UAPF are paid until pension savings are exhausted. To assign pension benefits from the UAPF in connection with reaching retirement age, beneficiaries must promptly contact the Public Service Center at their place of residence, and for payment in connection with the establishment of disability of the first or second group indefinitely - to the UAPF divisions, including through the UAPF website if there is an electronic digital signatures. Documents can be submitted to the Public Service Center together with the application 10 days before the recipient reaches retirement age. We strongly recommend that you comply with this deadline, as this is especially important for receiving a state pension, for the appointment of which it is necessary to verify the work experience based on the documents submitted.
The pension is assigned from the date of application. It is important to note that when applying for pension benefits before reaching retirement age, the date of application is considered the date of reaching retirement age, and in the case of an application after reaching retirement age, the date of application is considered the date of registration of the application in the State Corporation "Government for Citizens".
In addition, please note that future pensioners (potential beneficiaries), whose phone numbers are registered in the egov mobile citizens database, are sent an SMS notification from number 1414 2 months before reaching retirement age about the possibility of timely application to the nearest branch of the State Corporation to receive services for the appointment of pension payments with a link to the list of documents on the egov.kz website. That is, government agencies send out relevant notifications to process pension benefits within the specified time frame, since payments are not assigned for the missed period.
Meanwhile, in order to provide a proactive service for making pension benefits from the UAPF to persons who have reached retirement age, who have pension savings in the UAPF and have not applied for their payment, the UAPF conducts an annual reconciliation together with the State Corporation for the presence of assigned pension benefits by age and state basic pension payment at the expense of budgetary funds for these citizens.
For payment in connection with the establishment of a disability of the first or second group indefinitely, it is necessary to contact the UAPF divisions either through a personal account on the UAPF website (enpf.kz) or in the UAPF mobile application using an electronic digital signature.
Please note that the UAPF has organized on-site services for persons with a disability of the first or second group, established indefinitely. In this case, a preliminary consultation is carried out, including checking the possibility of receiving services remotely, without leaving.
An application for receiving benefits through voluntary pension contributions (VPC) is also submitted to UAPF: online in your personal account on the enpf.kz website or in the UAPF mobile application, as well as in any division of the Fund. Let us remind you that receiving pension payments through VPC is possible starting from the age of 50, that is, before reaching the generally established retirement age. In addition, benefits through VPC are made to persons with disabilities, as well as foreigners and stateless persons who have left for permanent residence outside the Republic of Kazakhstan, unless otherwise provided by the laws of the Republic of Kazakhstan and international treaties ratified by the Republic of Kazakhstan.
On the enpf.kz website, in the "Services – Beneficiaries" section, there is a list of necessary documents depending on the pension benefits, the method of their submission, requirements for their execution, application forms and samples of their completion, a sample power of attorney. In the “Electronic Services” section, there is an option to pre-check the documents submitted for pension benefits from UAPF.
