Italian⁣ Pensioners to Recieve Fourteenth Month Payment in July

many ‍Italian pensioners will⁢ see an additional payment, ⁤known as the “fourteenth month,” credited⁢ to their accounts in July. This is a targeted initiative designed to provide financial assistance to those with limited‌ pension​ income.Eligibility is determined‌ by specific criteria related to age and​ income, meaning not all⁢ pensioners will qualify ⁣or receive the same amount.

Eligibility Requirements

To be eligible for the “fourteenth month” payment,pensioners ‍must be 64 years⁣ old by Dec. 31, 2025. Those reaching this ​age by July will receive the payment in the summer. Individuals turning 64 between August ⁣and December will receive a prorated amount at ‌the end​ of‌ the year, calculated based on the number of eligible months.

Income is also⁣ a key factor. To qualify for the payment,a pensioner’s ‌gross annual‍ income must ‌not exceed 15,688.40 euros. This limit is equivalent to twice the minimum INPS (National social Security Institute) treatment, which was set ⁢at 7,844.20 euros in ​2025.

A‍ lower ⁤income‍ bracket, below 11,766.30 euros per year, qualifies pensioners⁣ for higher payment amounts.‌ The ‌”fourteenth month” ​payment gradually decreases ⁢for those​ with incomes between 1.5 and 2 times ​the minimum treatment,​ eventually ‍phasing out entirely once the maximum income threshold⁤ is surpassed.

Covered Pensions

The “fourteenth month” ⁣payment applies to direct pensions or survivor’s pensions ⁣provided through⁤ mandatory general insurance, special schemes for self-employed workers,​ separate management programs, ‍and⁢ other ⁣substitute social security arrangements. Recipients of ordinary disability allowances are also included.

though, beneficiaries ⁣of social allowances, social retirement benefits, services for civil disability, and welfare programs such as the social Ape are excluded. When⁣ determining eligibility,⁣ all personal income is considered, including income ⁤beyond pension payments, with some exceptions. These exceptions include‌ income from a primary residence, accompanying allowances, family ⁢treatments, severance pay (TFR), back payments, and certain disability-related benefits.

Payment Amounts

The​ “fourteenth month” payment varies based ⁣on both the pensioner’s overall income and‍ their ⁣years of contributions. For those with incomes up to ​11,766.30 euros:

• Pensioners with up to 15 years of contributions (or 18 years for self-employed individuals) will​ receive 437 euros.
• Those⁣ with 15 to 25 years of‍ contributions‍ (or 18 to 28 years for self-employed individuals) will ‍receive 546 euros.
• Pensioners exceeding 25 years of contributions (or 28 years for self-employed individuals) will⁣ receive 655 euros.

For pensioners with incomes between 11,766.31 and 15,688.40 ​euros,the payment​ amounts are lower:

• Pensioners with less than 15 years of contributions (or 18​ years ‍for self-employed individuals)‌ will receive 336 euros.
