The new date for the holiday bonuses, which have been increased from 3 thousand lira to 4 thousand lira for retirees, has been announced. It has been reported that the remaining 1 thousand lira bonus amounts for retirees who had 3 thousand lira bonuses deposited into their accounts before Ramadan will be deposited into accounts as of April 3rd.
An explanation regarding the matter came from the Social Security Institution (SGK). In the statement, it was said, "We will start paying the difference payments of the holiday bonuses for our retirees and their beneficiaries on April 3, 2025."
THE BONUSES WERE DEPOSITED AS 3 THOUSAND TL
The bill to raise the holiday bonus for retirees to 4 thousand lira was accepted in the Grand National Assembly of Turkey (TBMM) before the holiday. However, due to the tight schedule, the process of publication in the Official Gazette was delayed, and the increase amount of 1 thousand lira was not deposited into accounts. For this reason, while the 3 thousand lira portion was deposited into accounts before the holiday, the remaining 1 thousand lira amount was marked for after the holiday.
PAYMENTS WILL BE MADE TO 15.5 MILLION PEOPLE
A total of 15.5 million people will receive payments under the holiday bonus for retirees. It is estimated that the 1 thousand lira increase in the holiday bonus will create an additional cost of 28.4 billion lira to the 2025 budget.
PUBLIC SECTOR RETIREES RECEIVED THEIR BONUSES BEFORE THE HOLIDAY
As the days counted down to Ramadan, good news about payments that delighted public sector retirees had arrived. The salaries of public sector retirees for the month of April, along with the holiday bonus, were deposited into accounts on March 28. Within the payment process carried out by the Ministry of Labor and Social Security and the Social Security Institution (SGK), millions of public sector retirees received both their salaries and the holiday bonus set at 4 thousand lira. These payments made before the holiday were met with satisfaction among retirees.
