Where the ANSES pension increase comes from
Since 2024, ANSES benefits are updated monthly by inflation from two months earlier. INDEC reported on 13 October that prices rose 1.9% in September, up from 1.7% in August (Infobae). ANSES applies the figure to two decimals: 1.93%.
| INDEC indicator | September 2026 |
|---|---|
| Monthly inflation | 1.9% |
| Year-to-date inflation | 23.6% |
| Annual inflation | 33.4% |
| Monthly inflation, Greater Buenos Aires | 2.0% |
| Monthly inflation, Patagonia | 1.4% |
Housing, electricity and gas, and education rose most in September. The long series is in Argentina's inflation year by year since 1998.

Who gets the full bonus and who gets part of it
The 70,000-peso bonus is paid in full to those on the minimum pension, the PUAM or a non-contributory pension. Those earning slightly more receive only what is needed to reach 514,158.45 pesos. For example, a retiree with 480,000 pesos gets a bonus of 34,158.45.
| November pension | Bonus | Total |
|---|---|---|

Is there a new bonus for retirees?
No. Messages circulated about an extra bonus, but no decree creates one, El Nueve clarified. The only top-up in force is the 70,000-peso bonus, set by decree every month and unchanged since March 2024. With inflation of 23.6% between January and September 2026 alone, the bonus buys about a fifth less than at the start of the year. In November it equals about 16% of the minimum pension.
