Double Salary and Additional Payments are at the Door!

Salary Raise Difference and the Joy of Dual Payments

The pension increase for 2024 was 37.57%, and this created great satisfaction among retirees. However, there were some hesitations due to the underpaid salaries in January. Minister of Labor and Social Security Vedat Işıkhan made a new statement on this issue and gave good news to retirees.

Net Raises and Extra Support in May

According to Minister Işıkhan’s statement, retirees will start receiving their salaries based on the net increase rates as of May. This means that the expected increase in salaries will occur. In addition, double payments and extra bank promotions will be offered to retirees in May. In this way, retirees will be able to earn additional income in addition to their salaries.

When will raise difference payments be made?

Raise difference payments for retirees will be deposited into their accounts in the first week of May. Payments will be made according to the last digit of the retirees’ allocation number and IBAN numbers. In this context, each of approximately 15 million retirees, including SSK, Bağ-Kur, retired civil servants and EYT members, will be able to benefit from this right.

An Increase is Expected in Bank Promotions

In addition to pensions, it is expected that there will be significant increases in the promotional payments offered by banks as of May. With the new regulations, bank promotions can go up to 18,000 TL. This increase will provide support to retirees, almost like a second salary. Retirees can visit the official websites of the relevant banks to get information about these new payments they will receive.

Detailed Information and Procedures

If retirees want to get more information about raise difference payments and bank promotions, they can visit the official websites of the relevant banks or contact their branches directly. For bank promotions, it may often be necessary to fill out a form or make a special agreement with the bank. Since these processes may differ in each bank, it is important for retirees to follow up-to-date information from the banks’ official sources.

What Does This News Mean for Retirees?

This good news from Minister Işıkhan to retirees means that the remaining part of the increase in 2024 will be completed and will provide a significant income increase to retirees in May. In addition, the purchasing power of retirees is expected to increase with dual payments and bank promotions.
