Those who work earn money for their pension, the public pension and in many cases also for their occupational pension. The day when it is time to step down and finally retire is something many people long for.
There are also many opportunities to influence your future pension here and now, where you can choose how and where you distribute your savings.
The setback that can reduce your pension by SEK 30,000 – every year: “Expensive deal”
Then you are entitled to extra money for the pension
But the possibility of increasing your pension also exists in the family situation you live in. If you have children, you may have the possibility to increase the pension through a so-called pension right that applies during the child’s first four years. The pension right must compensate for the lower income you can get compared to the one you had before the child was born.
According to The Pensions Authority each child results in you receiving between 200 and 300 kroner extra in general pension.
There are mainly two parts that determine whether you are entitled to an extra pension deposit. The person with the lowest income is the one who is entitled to the extra deposit and applies to you who do not have an annual income that exceeds SEK 599,250.
This is how much the pension will be increased in 2024: They will receive SEK 1,000 more per month
