The payment schedule for pensions and social insurance benefits for April in many localities begins on April 1st.

In Hanoi and some other localities, the Social Insurance agency will disburse payments to beneficiaries via personal accounts on April 2nd and in cash at post offices after April 2nd. In the case of elderly beneficiaries who are unable to travel, they will receive their pensions and allowances at home.

It is known that before the Lunar New Year of the Horse 2026, the Hanoi Social Insurance agency had already disbursed pension and social insurance benefits for February and March. Specifically, February pensions were paid to 607,462 people with a total amount of over 4.204 billion VND. March pensions (first installment) were paid to 607,443 cases with a total amount of 4.158 billion VND.

A highlight of this consolidated payment round is that 99.55% of people received money via their personal accounts (ATMs), demonstrating a strong digital transformation that allows people to receive money quickly without waiting.

The Hanoi Social Insurance agency has also issued some notes regarding the authorization to receive pension payments according to the 2024 Social Insurance Law.

Accordingly, in order for the monthly payment of pensions and social insurance benefits to continue smoothly, ensuring the rights of beneficiaries are protected under the two-tiered local government system and in accordance with the provisions of the Social Insurance Law No. 41/2024/QH15 (Social Insurance Law 2024) effective from July 1, 2025, beneficiaries should note some changes regarding the authorization to receive pensions and social insurance benefits as follows:

Regarding the authorization to receive pensions and social insurance benefits: For cases of authorizing the receipt of pensions, social insurance benefits, and other benefits, the authorization document is valid for a maximum of 12 months from the date of establishment of the authorization; the authorization document must be notarized according to the provisions of the law on notarization. "For authorization documents already established according to the provisions of Law No. 58/2014/QH13 (Social Insurance Law of 2014), they will be valid until June 30, 2026. After July 1, 2026, beneficiaries must re-establish the authorization or have it notarized in a timely manner to avoid interruption in receiving monthly pensions and social insurance benefits."

Annually, beneficiaries of social insurance benefits through personal bank accounts are responsible for cooperating with the social insurance agency or a service organization authorized by the social insurance agency to verify their eligibility for social insurance benefits as prescribed.
