General Pension & Social Security Authority (GPSSA) brings forward pension payment dates during the current year (2019) to the twenty-seventh of each month instead of the twenty-ninth of each month. In addition, GPSSA brings forward the dates of payment of September and December to the twenty-sixth, and the dates of payment of April and July to the twenty-fifth, as the twenty-seventh of these four months are official holidays.
GPSSA explained that bringing forward the payment dates is a response by GPSSA to the retirees’ requests who expressed their desire to bring forward the payment dates to keep up with family and living obligations, and with the dates of commitments that they have to meet monthly.
GPSSA confirmed that it is looking forward to provide the best services for retirees, entitled persons and all beneficiary groups in line with best practices, noting that GPSSA has adopted an initiative regarding periodically announcement of the pension payment dates, so that retirees can arrange their priorities according to payment dates
It is worth mentioning that GPSSA manages files of 15880 retirees and 7092 beneficiaries of persons affiliated to GPSSA along with 1711 retirees and 4568 beneficiaries of civilians, as well as 5954 retirees and 4653 beneficiaries of military personnel whose pensions are disbursed by Ministry of Finance
