In connection with the war, it is impossible to take a confirmation in the Podolsky Archive (Russia)

Does the state meet in such cases during martial law?

To date, to apply for an old-age pension, you need to provide the following documents:

  • application for accrual of pension;

  • a certificate on the assignment of an identification number;

  • work book;

  • salary certificate;

  • documents about where you are registered;

  • documents certifying the status (special: a participant in hostilities, a certificate of a participant in the liquidation of an accident at a nuclear power plant, etc.) if available;

  • if you retire earlier than required, you must provide a referral for the appointment of a pension;

  • two photos 4x6 cm;

  • details of the bank's own pension account;

That is, it is not necessary to provide an extract from the state register of civil status acts (confirmation of the maiden name).
