The following chart summarizes the differences between the four regular and non-regular retirement plans and disability retirement.
Final Pay | Defined Benefit that equals 2.5% times the number of years of service times the member’s final basic pay on the day of retirement | Primary retirement plan for Reserve members with initial date of entry into service prior to September 8, 1980 |
High-36 | Defined Benefit that equals 2.5% times the number of years of service times the average of the member’s highest 36 months of basic pay | Primary retirement plan for members with initial date of entry into service on or after September 8, 1980, but before January 1, 2018 |
REDUX | Career Status Bonus $30,000 lump sum payment at 15th year of service with obligation to serve through 20 years + defined benefit Defined Benefit is (b) At age 62 and after: | Optional retirement plan for active duty members with an initial date of entry into service after July 31, 1986, but before January 1, 2018. Eligibility to elect the Career Status Bonus ended as of December 31, 2017 |
Blended Retirement System (BRS) | Blended defined benefit and defined contribution plan. Defined Contribution: Defined Benefit: | Only retirement plan for members with initial date of entry into service on or after January 1, 2018 Optional retirement plan for members with an initial date of entry into service on or before December 31, 2017, who: |
Disability | Retirement plan that equals to: *Retired Pay Base – determined under Final Pay, High-36, or BRS depending on military service date of entry **Multiplier Percentage can be either:
Note that in both cases the multiplier is limited to 75% by law | Determined medically unfit for continued service with a DoD disability rating of at least 30% |
The below chart provides the basic criteria to determine which retirement plan applies:
Final Pay | Entry before September 8, 1980 |
High-36 | Entry on or after September 8, 1980, but before August 1, 1986 OR Entered on or after August 1, 1986, and did not choose the Career Status Bonus and REDUX retirement system |
CSB/REDUX | Entered on or after August 1, 1986, but before January 1, 2003 AND elected to receive the Career Status Bonus |
Blended Retirement System (BRS) | Entered the Uniformed Services for the first time on or after January 1, 2018 (automatic enrollment), or entered before December 31, 2017 and elected to opt into BRS during the opt-in period |
Disability | Determined medically unfit for continued service with a DoD disability rating of at least 30% |
All four of the regular and non-regular retirement plans determine initial monthly retired pay by applying a percentage multiplier to the retired pay base.
There are two methods for determining the retired pay base. They are the final pay method and the high-36 month average method. The final pay method, as the name implies, establishes the retired pay base equal to final basic pay. The high-36 method is the average of the highest 36 months of basic pay divided by 36. This is generally the last 3 years of service and is sometimes called high-3. The method used depends upon when the member first entered military service.
The method is determined by DIEMS (Date of Initial Entry to Military Service) or DIEUS (Date of Initial Entry to Uniformed Services). The date a member first entered uniformed service in any capacity establishes DIEMS. This date is fixed---it does not change. Departing the military and rejoining does not affect DIEMS.
Some individuals have unique circumstances that complicate determining their DIEMS. Here are a few examples:
Be aware that pay date (e.g., Pay Entry Base Date) may be different than DIEMS. Also, DIEMS does not determine when creditable service toward retirement is calculated---it only determines which retired pay base method applies.
For both the Final Pay and High-36 retired pay plans, each year of service is worth 2.5% toward the retirement multiplier. For example, 20 years of service would equal a 50% multiplier. The years of service creditable are computed differently depending upon whether retirement is from full time active duty or from a reserve career. These differences are explained under the Active Duty Retirement and Reserve Retirement pages.
For the REDUX retirement plan, which applies only to certain active duty retirements as described above, the High-36 multiplier is reduced by one percentage point for each year that the member has less than 30 years of service at retirement. For example, 20 years of service would equal a 40% multiplier. This is discussed more fully under the Active Duty Retirement page.
For disability retirement programs, the multiplier will be the higher of (a) the disability percentage assigned by the Service at retirement not to exceed 75%, or (b) the result of multiplying the number of years of service by the applicable retirement plan multiplier (e.g., 2.5% for High-36 or 2.0% for BRS).
In any case, the longer an individual serves, the higher the multiplier and the higher the retirement pay. For example:
Final Pay | 50% | 52.5% | 55% | 57.5% | 60% | 62.5% | 75% | 87.5% | 100% | 102.5% |
High-36 | 50% | 52.5% | 55% | 57.5% | 60% | 62.5% | 75% | 87.5% | 100% | 102.5% |
REDUX | 40% | 43.5% | 47% | 50.5% | 54% | 57.5% | 75% | 87.5% | 100% | 102.5% |
BRS | 40% | 42% | 44% | 46% | 48% | 50% | 60% | 70% | 80% | 82% |
All military retirements are protected from inflation by an annual Cost of Living Adjustment (COLA), based on changes in the Consumer Price Index (CPI) as measured by the Department of Labor. Under the Final Pay, High-36, and BRS retirement plans, the annual COLA is equal to the percentage increase in the CPI year over year. Under REDUX, the COLA is reduced, as described in the table below.
Final Pay | Annual COLA determined using the Consumer Price Index – Urban Wage Earners, published by U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics. |
High-36 | Annual COLA determined using the Consumer Price Index – Urban Wage Earners, published by U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics |
REDUX | Reduced annual COLA that is normally one percentage point less than the COLA determined for the other retirement plans (but not less than zero). Due to the reduced annual COLA, members participating in REDUX receive a one-time readjustment at age 62 to restore the difference in COLA to what it would have been under High-36. Thereafter, annual COLA reverts back to the lesser amount as above. |

Military retirement pay is one of the top three benefits of military service along with medical and other benefits. Also, all military retirements are protected from inflation by annual Cost of Living Adjustments (COLAs), based on changes in the Consumer Price Index (CPI) as measured by the Department of Labor.
A military retirement plan could be considered one of the best retirement plans around. There are a few options depending on when you began your service. Know your options and how to calculate your military retirement pay to find out which option is best for you.
If you began your military service before Sep. 7, 1980, you’re eligible for the Final Pay Retirement system. Your retired pay is calculated by multiplying your final base pay by 2.5% for every year of service.
If your military service began between Sep. 8, 1980, and July 31, 1986, you are eligible for the High 36 Retirement System. High 36 is very similar to the Final Pay Retirement System except your retired pay is calculated using an average of the three highest paid years of service.
If your military service began between Aug. 1, 1986, and Dec. 31, 2017, you qualify for REDUX Retirement System or the High 36 System. This system is based on your highest 36 months base pay. After your 15 year service anniversary you will receive a Career Status Bonus (CSB) and your retirement pay is reduced. If you have 30 years or more of service, there is no pay reduction.
If you began your military service after Jan. 1, 2018, you are eligible for the Blended Retirement System (BRS). With BRS, you will receive 40% of your base pay after 20 years and a bonus at 12 years, which is 2.5% of your annual base pay. The military will contribute 1% of your base pay to your Thrift Savings Plan (TSP).
If you are determined to be medically unfit for service with a DoD disability rating of at least 30%, you are eligible for disability pay. This is calculated using percentage of disability or years of credible service.
There are two ways of calculating your military retired pay base, the final pay method and the high 36 method. The final pay method sets the retired base pay equal to the final basic pay. The high 36 method is the average of your highest 36 months of basic pay. The date you began your military service will determine which method is used to calculate your retired pay base.
For the Final Pay and High 36 retirement plans each year of service is 2.5% to your retirement multiplier. Depending on the type of service, active duty or reserve, your years of creditable service will be calculated differently.
If you qualify for the REDUX retirement plan, your multiplier is reduced for each year less than 30 years of service at retirement.
The disability retirement multiplier will be the highest of the assigned disability percentage at retirement not exceeding 75% or by the applicable retirement plan multiplier and years of service.
Years of Service | 20 | 21 | 22 | 23 | 24 | 25 | 30 | 35 | 40 | 41 |
Final Pay | 50% | 52.5% | 55% | 57.5% | 60% | 62.5% | 75% | 87.5% | 100% | 102.5% |
High-36 | 50% | 52.5% | 55% | 57.5% | 60% | 62.5% | 75% | 87. 5% | 100% | 102.5% |
REDUX | 40% | 43.5% | 47% | 50.5% | 54% | 57.5% | 75% | 87.5% | 100% | 102.5% |
BRS | 40% | 42% | 44% | 46% | 48% | 50% | 60% | 70% | 80% | 82% |
All military retirement plans include an annual Cost of Living Adjust (COLA). Each retirement plan adjustment is based on changes with the Consumer Price Index. For the Final Pay, High 36, Disability, and BRS retirement plans, the yearly cost of living adjustment is equal to the percentage increase of the CPI.
For the REDUX retirement plan the COLA is about one percentage point less than the other retirement plans. If you have the REDUX plan you’ll be given a on time adjustment at 62 years of age to make up the difference in COLA to equal what it would have been for High 36. The COLA will then revert to the previous percentage.

Military people retire not by age, but by seniority or disability, if they received it in the service. And their relatives - in connection with the loss of a breadwinner. The pension is assigned to military personnel who served in the internal affairs bodies, employees of the Russian Guard, the Ministry of Emergency Situations, the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the FSB, the FSIN. They can receive it when they leave military service. If a military man left the service and got a job as a civilian, then the right to an insurance pension will also appear.
The amount of the pension depends on the position and rank of the military, length of service and allowances. In the article I will tell you how to apply for a military pension, how it is calculated and what are the allowances.
Military pensions are described by laws that contain more than a hundred pages. In this article, I gave a constructor: what payments make up a military pension. For convenience, there are links to articles of the law in the margins, so if you want to know in detail, you can go there and read. Each particular case of calculating a pension has its own subtleties that will affect its size. Therefore, in order to accurately calculate your pension, it is better to consult with the pension authority of the law enforcement agency in which you served.
When a soldier reaches a certain level of service, he is awarded a service pension.
Conditions for granting a pension. By law, a seniority pension is due to the military if:
Art. 13 of the law on pensions for persons who have completed military service
According to military experience. Military experience, for example, includes:
st. 18 of the law on pensions for persons who have completed military service
Officers and military commanders are credited with up to 5 years of study before entering the service. One year of study will be equal to 6 months of service. For example, if a military man studied for 5 years, he will be credited with 2.5 years of service.
Service in special conditions is included in the length of service on a preferential basis. This means that periods of service will be included in the length of service in longer periods than the calendar period. For example, for service in countries that fought hostilities, a month is counted as two.
Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of September 22, 1993 No. 941 - on preferential calculation
Special conditions also include, for example, service in the regions of the Far North, in positions associated with increased danger to life and health.
When the pension will be granted. A military man submits documents for a seniority pension - and they are checked. The pension will be assigned within 10 days from the day of dismissal - but not earlier than the day before which the monetary allowance was paid upon dismissal. If you delay in applying for a pension, it will be assigned retroactively from the day when the right to it arose. You can receive payments up to 12 months before the day of application.
Art. 53 of the law on pensions for persons who have completed military service
The amount of pension for service depends on several factors:
For military personnel with 20 years of service, the pension will be 50% of the monetary allowance. For each next year of service, 3% will be added, but in total the percentage of monetary allowance cannot be more than 85%.
Art. 14 of the law on pensions for persons who have completed military service
For example, a military man has served 20 years. His monetary allowance is 42,000 R. The pension will be set at 50% of the monetary allowance - 21,000 R, but due to the reduction factor on hand, the military will receive less - I will talk about this in detail in another section. For each next year, 3% is added: for 21 years of service - 53%, for 22 years - 56%, etc., but not more than 85% of the allowance.
For military personnel with 12.5 years of service with a total length of service of 25 years, the pension will also be 50% of the monetary allowance, and only 1% will be added for each subsequent year of service. Theoretically, the military with such length of service can receive 100% of the monetary allowance, but only for 75 years of service.
The monthly payment, , which is indexed annually, is entitled to participants and disabled veterans of the Great Patriotic War and combat veterans. The maximum payment amount is 3088 R per month in addition to the pension. In 2022, taking into account indexation, the amount of payment for participants in the Great Patriotic War is 4746.29 R, for disabled veterans of the Great Patriotic War - 6328.41 R, for combat veterans - 3481.85 R.
Art. 23.1 of the Federal Law "On Veterans"
Increased military pension receive disabled people. How much it has increased is calculated as a percentage of the social pension. The amount of the social pension depends on the category of disabled citizens.
Art. 16 of the law on pensions for persons who have completed military service
p. 1, art. 18 of the Federal Law "On state pension provision in the Russian Federation"
For example, a disabled person of the first group is entitled to a social pension of 11,212.36 R. If he was injured in military service, the pension will be increased three times:
11,212 R × 300% \u003d 33 636 R

Disability pension is awarded regardless of the length of service. It is required if the military received a disability during the service or within three months after the dismissal. Disability must be the result of an illness or injury that the military received in the service.
p. 2 art. 8 of the Federal Law "On State Pension Provision in the Russian Federation"
Disability is established by a medical and social examination or a military medical commission of the military district where the service takes place.
The amount of the pension depends on the disability group and the reasons for the disability. For conscripts, it is calculated as a percentage of the social pension.
Art. 15 Federal Law "On state pension provision in the Russian Federation"
Disability group | Amount of pension due to military injury | Amount of pension due to illness received during service |
---|---|---|
First | 300% | 250% |
Second | 250% | 200% |

For example, for disabled people of the second group, the social pension is 5606. 15 R. For military personnel with a disability of the second group received due to a military injury, the pension will be calculated as follows:
5606 Р × 250% = 14 015 Р
For officers, ensigns, midshipmen and contractors, employees of law enforcement agencies, the disability pension is calculated as a percentage of the monetary allowance.
Art. 22 laws on pensions for persons who have completed military service
Disability group | Amount of pension due to military injury | Amount of pension due to illness received during service |

For example, a contractor receives a monetary allowance of 25,000 R. If he receives a disability of the second group due to a military injury, his disability pension will be calculated as follows:
25,000 R × 85% = 21,250 R
Disability is established for a certain period, which is indicated in the certificate of the medical and social examination. When the deadline has passed, the military must undergo a re-examination to confirm the disability.
If the military misses the deadline, the payment of the disability pension may be suspended. If this happened for a good reason, for example, if the state of health worsened, then after re-examination, the pensioner will receive payments for the entire overdue period. If there was no good reason, the pension will continue to be paid when the pensioner confirms the disability.
Re-examination is not carried out if disability is established indefinitely, and also upon reaching 65 years for men, 60 years for women.
It happens that the state of health has changed. Then, at the personal request of the disabled person, his legal representative or in the medical direction, a re-examination is carried out. If the disability group is changed, the amount of the pension also changes.
If a serviceman dies or goes missing, each disabled member of his family is assigned a survivor's pension. In this case, the pension is due:
st. 29 of the law on pensions for persons who have completed military service
The loss of a breadwinner is considered:
st. 28 of the law on pensions for persons who have completed military service
The amount of the pension depends on the cause of death of the breadwinner. If the military served under a contract, then a pension is given to each disabled family member as a percentage of the breadwinner's allowance. 50% of the military allowance will be assigned to the following categories of citizens:
st. 36 of the law on pensions for persons who have completed military service
If a soldier dies due to an illness received during the period of service, his family will be paid 40% of the military allowance.
If the military served on conscription, the pension will be calculated as a percentage of the social pension. It will be paid to each disabled family member in an amount that depends on the cause of death of the conscript:
item 4 of Art. 15 of the Federal Law "On state pension provision in the Russian Federation"
If family members lose their right to a pension, then payments will be reduced or stopped. For example, if the children of the deceased study full-time at a university, they are entitled to a pension up to 23 years. They will stop receiving their pension the next month after they turn 23.
If a military man, after being discharged from service, works as a civilian, he has the right to a second pension - an insurance one. At the same time, the work must be official - if the employer does not deduct pension contributions, there will be no right to an insurance pension.
About the second pension for military personnel
You can check how many contributions were paid to the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation in your personal account in the section "On the formed pension rights" or in the pension fund or MFC - you will need a passport and SNILS. You can register in the compulsory pension insurance system at the territorial pension fund or the MFC. You need to come there with a passport and fill out a questionnaire. You can also log in to the PFR website through the public services website if you are already registered there.

Click on the “Login” button in the upper right part of the screen After you are asked to log in through the public services website When you log in to public services, you will be asked to check whether your profile is filled out correctly . Change the details if requiredTo receive a military pension and an insurance pension at the same time, you must meet the following requirements.
Age. Reaching the age of 61.5 years for men and 56.5 years for women, taking into account the length of service — for example, if a pensioner worked in the Far North or in difficult working conditions. Age is determined taking into account the transition period.
In Russia, there is a gradual increase in the retirement age. A transitional period has been introduced for these changes, which will be 10 years and end in 2028. As a result, the retirement age will be raised by 5 years and set at 60 for women and 65 for men. In the first half of 2022, the retirement age for women is 56.5 years, for men - 61.5 years. In the second half of 2022, only those who received this right earlier, but did not use it, will retire.
Annexes 5 and 6 to Law No. 350-FZ
Raising the retirement age
Civil service. The length of service for the insurance pension does not include periods of service in the army or work that are taken into account when calculating the military pension. In 2022, the minimum work experience is 13 years. It increases by 1 year each year until it reaches 15 years in 2024.
Number of pension points. The minimum score in 2022 is 23.4. Their number will increase annually until 2025. By 2025, the minimum number of points will be 30. To check your points, you can contact the territorial pension fund with a passport and SNILS or in your personal account on the PFR website.
When you enter the compulsory pension insurance system, on the main page you can see how many pension points you haveThe formula for calculating the second pension is as follows:
Accumulated pension points × Value of one point
Calculate the amount of the second pension a point costs 107.36 R, the amount is indexed annually.
Usually a fixed payment is added to the insurance pension, but it is not paid to military pensioners.

There are allowances for seniority and disability pensions. They are calculated as a percentage of the social pension.
Art. 17 of the law on pensions for persons who have completed military service
When calculating a pension for the military, various payments are taken into account: allowances, increases and increases. These three terms are often confused, but they mean different things:
Do not confuse.
The allowance is due:
For example, a disabled person of the first group will receive an allowance of 11,212 R - this is 100% of the social pension for this category.
Clause 2.1 Art. 18 Federal Law "On state pension provision in the Russian Federation"
There are other allowances: for long service, work with the state secret service, service in special conditions, etc. If a military man receives other income than a military pension, then allowances for dependents and disability are not paid.
Art. 2 of the Federal Law "On State Pensions in the Russian Federation"
Military pensions are increased for services to the country. For Heroes of the Soviet Union and the Russian Federation, holders of the Order of Glory of three degrees, the pension is increased by 100%, for Heroes of Labor - by 50%. The pension is increased by a multiple of the number of awards: for example, twice the Hero of the Russian Federation receives an additional 200% to the pension.
Art. 45 of the law on pensions for persons who have completed military service
Champions of the Olympic, Paralympic and Deaflympics receive 50% of the pension. For awards with orders of Labor Glory of three degrees or "For Service to the Motherland in the Armed Forces of the USSR" - 15%.
The Deaflympics are games for people with hearing impairments
Social pension increases are received by:
All of them receive an increase of 32% in relation to the social pension. Those who served or worked during the Second World War for at least 6 months, as well as those who were unreasonably convicted and rehabilitated, receive an increase of 16%.
To calculate a military pension, you need to calculate the military allowance. To do this, you need to add salaries by position and rank with other payments. Then the allowance is multiplied by the reduction factor, the length of service and the district coefficient.
Law No. 460-FZ of December 11, 2018
After the pension is granted, the coefficient is increased by 2% annually until it reaches 100%. The state reserved the right to increase it by more than 2% if the inflation rate is high.
For WWII veterans, the reduction coefficient has been canceled since May 2019 - when calculating the pension for them, 100% of the monetary allowance is taken into account.
Monetary allowance consists of several parts:
st. 2 of the Federal Law on the monetary allowance of military personnel
Salaries by position
Salaries by rank
District coefficients. In some districts, coefficients for monetary allowance have been established. They are used if a pensioner lives in climatic, ecological and natural conditions that require additional costs - for example, in the Far North.
Amounts of district coefficients
A pension based on the district coefficient is received by military pensioners who:
st. 48 of the law on pensions for persons who have completed military service
The maximum value of the coefficient is 1.5. For example, in the Chukotka Autonomous Okrug, the coefficient is 2, but due to restrictions, it will be reduced to 1.5.
The length of service is calculated as follows: 50% is given for the first 20 years of service, and then 3% is added for each next year. For example, after 21 years of service, the length of service will be 53%, after 22 years - 56%, etc.
As a result, the following formula is obtained:
(Position salary + Military rank salary + Other payments) × Reducing factor × Length of service × Regional coefficient = Military pension
An example of calculating pension for a lieutenant colonel in the position of battalion commander with a length of service of 22 years. By military rank, a lieutenant colonel is entitled to a salary of 12,480 R. He has the position of a battalion commander - for a position of 18th category, a salary of 24960 R. For 22 years of service, the lieutenant colonel will receive an allowance of 30% of the amount of salaries by position and rank:
(24 960 + 12 480) × 30% = 11 232 R
This is what pension our lieutenant colonel will receive from October 1, 2019 - with a decreasing coefficient of 73.68%:
(24,960 R + 12,480 R + 11,232 R) × 73.68% × 56% × 1 = 20,082 R
To receive a pension according to the length of service, , you need to submit documents to the pension authority of the law enforcement agency in which the military served: the Ministry of Defense, the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the Federal Penitentiary Service or the FSB. Documents can be submitted in person or sent by mail. You will need:
