Retired candidates use crude forgeries to receive a large pension. This is demonstrated by inspections by the National Institute of Social Security, writes Trud.
The schemes use both falsified practice documents and non-existent companies, with the aim of abusing the funds of the State Social Security.
The National Institute of Social Security reveals a striking case in which a retired candidate lies that he was a student at Paisii Hilendarski University in Plovdiv to receive a survivor’s pension. However, it turns out that the presented “certificate” is in fact a color scanned copy of the document and does not contain enough information about the person’s student status.
After an inspection, the university inspectors inform NSSI that the certificate attached by the person is not authentic, as it was not issued by the inspector, whose name is indicated on it.
In another case, a pensioner attempts to obtain a recalculation of the seniority pension due to additional seniority, which, however, turns out to be acquired not after but before his retirement.
The inspectors established that the model submitted УП-3 by the person for the period from 20.09.1973 to 27.10.1975, issued by a large insurer in the Pazardzhik territory, is a photocopy of an already completed document. Corrections have been made to the copy of the document and the old reprinted signatures and seal are clearly visible.
The inspection shows that the person is not present at all on the payroll and there is no evidence that they were employed by this employer in the specified period.
The National Institute of Social Security warns that companies are risky and are often under scrutiny by inspectors.
After a control verification by accredited insurance experience by a liquidated employer, it was established that the retired candidates present documents that did not exist at the time they worked for the respective company.
Another is trying to get a pension by submitting a company internship with a fake BULSTAT.
As of January 1, 2021, the inspectors of the National Institute of Social Security can now suspend the granting of a pension, if in the course of the process for granting a pension data are established for a crime committed relevant to the right or amount of the same.
This is possible due to changes in the Social Security Code. In most cases, these are documentary crimes: drafting and / or use of documents for the duration of service, insurance income or job category, which are not true or have a false content.
When these data are established, the materials are sent to a prosecutor and the process of granting a pension is suspended until the end of the criminal process, since the objective is to avoid the illegal payment of funds from the social security funds.
The process is suspended until the end of the criminal process, which presupposes that an act has entered into force.
Another change provides that the pension insurance official suspends the payment of the pension already granted, when after its granting data are established for a crime committed.
The maximum period for which production can be stopped is 6 months, and it cannot be exceeded, even if the inspection has not been completed or has not even started, clarifies the National Institute of Social Security.
Scheme
With the British Stock Exchange, they raise money for unemployment
The “vendors” are working at a construction site.
13 “British workers” are trying to get higher unemployment benefits.
The Bulgarians lie that they worked in Britain to collect large unemployment benefits. Such a scheme was revealed by NSSI inspectors.
This is the so-called “English stock exchange” scheme, in which people who have never left the country apply for unemployment benefits, indicating previous employment in the UK.
Just before losing their jobs, they worked for a short time with high income in Bulgaria.
Their hope is that the NSSI will grant them compensation on this salary, because according to European Regulation 883/2004, when the time of service in another EU member state is added, the compensation is awarded on the last income.
13 “English workers” attempt just that by presenting portable U1 documents to work in the UK. Initially, unemployment benefits were paid to some of them.
The subsequent check, however, found that these people not only did not work for the last Bulgarian insurer, but also that some of them did not even leave the country in their lives.
They must return the amount of BGN 36,224, and after the signals to the prosecution, the preliminary procedures have been started.
Under another scheme, two related companies have notified notifications of employment contracts concluded for suspiciously short periods with a total of 76 people.
The audits found that if all these people, registered as sales consultants or general workers, had indeed worked in such a room of approximately 6 square meters, there would be an average of 13 workers per square meter of work area.
And the place, a guest house, turns out to be a crude construction. Deduction review minutes have been drawn up for the value of BGN 19,973 for the established damages of the insurance companies’ social security, the money for unemployment has been denied and the data has been delivered to a prosecutor.
From July 1, 2022
The minimum pension is BGN 316.
The old-age social pension will increase to BGN 158.89 from July 1, 2022.
As of July 1, 2022, the minimum amount of the pension for seniority and seniority will reach 316.50 BGN, and as of July 1, 2023 it will increase to 334.22 BGN. This shows an analysis by Vessela Karaivanova, deputy governor of the National Institute of Social Security, for the Covid-19 pandemic and the social security system.
According to the medium-term budget forecast approved by the Council of Ministers, pensions will be increased as of July 1 under the so-called “Swiss rule” (50% of inflation and 50% of the growth in average insurance income for the year previous).
Given the parameters of the current macroeconomic forecast, the percentage to update pensions is expected to be 5.5% in 2022 and 5.6% in 2023, respectively, Karaivanova added. Non-labor pensions will also increase with these percentages.
Therefore, the old-age social pension will increase to BGN 158.89 from July 1, 2022 and BGN to 165.68 from July 1, 2023.
To the extent that the assumptions of the medium-term budget forecast approved by the Council of Ministers do not foresee an increase in maximum insurance income, the so-called “ceiling” for pensions will remain at 1,440 BGN, according to the analysis.
It states that no changes are expected in the field of benefits in the short term, and the dynamics of its costs will depend mainly on demographic and macroeconomic factors.
According to her, in 2022 and 2023 the balance of the consolidated budget of the state social insurance will depend on the transfer to cover the shortage of funds. Their share of total costs (including transfers) is projected to decrease.
From around 41.4% in 2021, the share of transfers from the central budget to cover the deficit in expenditures and transfers will decrease by 38.1% in 2022 and 37.9% in 2023. This means that more than 60% of the costs will be “covered” by the insurance proceeds.
