Increase of ANSES in December 2026: the new amounts for pensions and allowances

Additionally, the Government announced that it will grant a bonus of up to $70,000 to retirees and pensioners receiving the lowest benefits. The bonus has been frozen at that amount for two years and is usually confirmed in the days leading up to the start of the payment calendar.

In December, the second installment of the Annual Complementary Salary (SAC) will also be credited. According to the reported values, those receiving the minimum would get a total of $750,894.92 if the full $70,000 bonus is included.

AUH and ANSES allowances: the new amounts from December

The mobility update also applies to the Universal Child Allowance (AUH), the Pregnancy Allowance for Social Protection (AUE), and the benefits of the SUAF system.

With the 2.2% increase, the expected values for December will be:

• Universal Child Allowance (AUH): $163,122.44.

• Pregnancy Allowance (AUE): $163,122.44.

• Family allowance per child from SUAF: $81,571.95 for the first income tier.

How the ANSES increase is calculated

The update is governed by the mobility formula established by DNU 274/24, which adjusts monthly the benefits and allowances according to the variation of the Consumer Price Index (CPI).

The December increase references the inflation of October, which was 2.2%, according to the data released by INDEC.

The retirements, pensions, and allowances from ANSES will increase by 2.2% in December 2026, after INDEC reported the inflation for October. The update is applied through the pension mobility formula, which references the monthly evolution of prices.

With the increase, the minimum retirement will reach $453,929.95, excluding the bonus or the half bonus. If the additional $70,000 is included, the income will be $523,929.95 before incorporating the Annual Complementary Salary.

ANSES Retirements: how much will be received in December with the increase

The 2.2% adjustment also applies to pensions and other pension benefits. The amounts expected for December, excluding the bonus, will be as follows:

• Minimum retirement: $453,929.95.

• Maximum retirement: $3,054,518.67.
