Retiree holiday bonus gap payments are eagerly anticipated by retirees. All eyes are on when the 1000 TL gap will be deposited into accounts. Following the decision by the Turkish Grand National Assembly (TBMM) to increase retiree holiday bonuses to 4000 TL, the 3000 TL payments were made to SSK, Bağ-Kur, Retirement Fund retirees, widows, orphans receiving pensions, and elderly pension holders. Attention has now shifted to when the remaining 1000 TL payment gap will be made, focusing on a forthcoming announcement in the Official Gazette. President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan signed the decision to raise the retiree holiday bonus from 3000 TL to 4000 TL, leading many retirees to continue questioning the status of the 1000 TL bonus gap payments. Millions of retirees who received the 3000 TL holiday bonus are now awaiting the payment of the remaining 1000 TL gap. With the decision published in the Official Gazette, the Social Security Institution (SGK) will make gap payments to 15.5 million people as part of the retiree holiday bonus scheme. So, what is the current status of the 1000 TL retiree holiday bonus gap payments? When will the 1000 TL bonus be deposited? After the proposal to increase the holiday bonus to 4000 TL did not pass in the TBMM, initial payments of 3000 TL were made to retirees. According to the schedule announced by the SGK, bonuses began to be paid on March 24 and were completed by March 28. The decision to increase the retiree holiday bonus from 3000 TL to 4000 TL, signed by President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan and published in the Official Gazette, came into effect today. In addition to the 3000 TL deposited into accounts, it is expected that the SGK will determine the schedule for the 1000 TL gap payments. Once the proposal in the TBMM is published in the Official Gazette, the schedule for the gap payment will be determined and deposited into accounts as soon as possible. The SGK is expected to make the 1000 TL gap payments right after the holiday celebrations.
