Disability and partial disability pensions

A supplement for old age is paid to those who receive disability or part-disability pension in the new system. A supplement for old age is not paid to those who receive sickness or rehabilitation payments in the new system.

Full age supplement will be paid to those aged 18 to 24 when either the criteria for a rehabilitation pension were first met or when the disability assessment was first approved. This applies whether the first disability assessment took place before or after 1 September 2025. The amount will decrease by 5% from 25 years to 44 years of age.

All people who receive disability assessment for the first time at the age of 25 will receive 95% of the full age extension.

All who receive disability assessment for the first time at the age of 43 receive 5% of the full age supplement. Those who are older at the time of the first disability assessment do not receive an age supplement.
