Account Funding Date: When will the pension be credited into the account? - Transfer date of pension: when will it arrive in your account?
Wanna know when that precious pension of yours hits your bank account every month? Here's the lowdown!
For workers, the monthly cash flow you're after is none other than the legal pension drip for retirees. Unlike your employer, it's the German Pension Insurance dishing out the dough. But when, exactly, does this cash cow grace your account?
The answer's as straightforward as it is precise. According to the German Pension Insurance's "Tips for pensioners," your pension will be transferred on the last banking day of the month it's intended for. For instance, your January pension will rock up at the very end of January. Banking days are your everyday, run-of-the-mill weekdays, save for holidays. Saturdays and Sundays, sadly, are no-go zones.
But what if your pension started before April 2004 or you're a survivor beneficiary? In that case, your pension might get paid in advance. It'll be transferred on the last banking day of the previous month it's intended for. So just like our earlier example, the January pension would arrive in December.
Where Does the Money Come From? The Post Delivers!
The money dance is orchestrated by the Pension Service of the German Post, acting as the German Pension Insurance's proxy. They also handle adjusting your pension payments and sending those pesky adjustment notifications. Want to update YOUR details? You can do it online through their website, or the old-fashioned way by mail.
Wondering when the cash shows up in your account? There's no hard-and-fast rule; theoretically, the bank's got till 23:59 on the last banking day of the month to credit your pension into your account. So, if things go awry and you've got questions, give the Pension Service of the German Post a call, and be sure to have your post pension number ready.
