In February, the new amounts for social benefits in Argentina were announced. For example, a pension of $300,000 will receive a bonus of $43,086. The Universal Pension for the Elderly (PUAM) will be $288,469.20, and the Non-Contributory Pensions (PNC) for Disability and Old Age will be $261,160.55.
According to ANSES, the minimum pension to be received in February will be $343,086.50, which includes an inflation adjustment of 2.7% applied in December on a base amount of $273,086.50, plus a bonus of $70,000 that does not get updated.
The reinforcement for minimum pensions has remained stable since March 2024, which has resulted in a real reduction of benefits for those receiving the minimum pension. For those receiving between $273,086 and $343,086, a bonus will be paid to help reach the maximum value.
Regarding family allowances, the Universal Child Allowance (AUH) will amount to $98,128, the AUH for a Child with Disabilities to $319,525, and the Family Allowance for Children to $49,066 for the first income range.
