INPS: equalization + 1.7% in January, with more brackets with low allowances
Full pension equalization, de facto frozen in 2020, will restart from 1 January 2022 in the face of negative inflation of 0.3%. A revaluation of + 1.7% which will be applied in a decreasing manner as pensions rise but also, unlike in 2020, calculated on a progressive scale by bracket. A formulation that will bring more generous increases to lower checks. It is an INPS dossier that focuses on an estimate of what was decided by MEF decree last November. In fact, the double calculation will bring pensions up to 4 times the minimum treatment, that is up to 2,062.32 euros, to obtain an increase of 1.7%; those above 4 and up to 5 times the minimum INPS treatment, between € 2,062.33 and € 2,577.90, to have a revaluation of 1.53%, and the revaluation of 1.7% of the bracket up to 2,062.32 euros. Pensions exceeding 5 times the minimum INPS, i.e. over 2,577.90 euros, will instead obtain an increase of 1.275%, without prejudice to the revaluation of 1.7% of the bracket up to 2,062.32 euros and of the 1.53% of the range between € 2,062.33 and € 2,577.90. Overall, therefore, a pension of 2 thousand euros gross per month will enjoy an increase always gross of 34 euros per month, a pension of 2,500 euros gross per month, ie between 4 and 5 times the minimum INPS, will get almost 42 euros per month more. .
