The latest status of holiday bonus difference payments for retirees is being closely monitored. All eyes are now on when the 1000 TL bonus will be deposited into accounts. Following the decision by the Turkish Grand National Assembly (TBMM) to increase retiree holiday bonus payments to 4000 TL, the 3000 TL portion has already been disbursed to retirees under the SSK, Bağ-Kur, and Retirement Fund, as well as to widows, orphans, and elderly allowance recipients. The focus has now shifted to the date when the remaining 1000 TL difference will be paid, with expectations set on the Official Gazette. Published under the signature of President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, the Official Gazette raised the retiree holiday bonus from 3000 TL to 4000 TL. So, when will the 1000 TL bonus difference be transferred? The latest update on the 1000 TL retiree holiday bonus difference payments continues to be questioned by millions of retirees. Those who already received the 3000 TL holiday bonus are waiting for the additional 1000 TL payment. With the publication in the Official Gazette, Social Security Institution (SSI) is expected to make difference payments to 15.5 million individuals under the retiree holiday bonus. So, what is the latest status on the 1000 TL retiree holiday bonus difference payments? When will the 1000 TL bonus difference be deposited? Following the proposal for the holiday bonus to be increased to 4000 TL not being passed in the TBMM, an initial payment of 3000 TL has been initiated for retirees. According to the schedule announced by the SSI, bonuses started to be paid on March 24 and were completed by March 28. With the decision to increase the retiree holiday bonus from 3000 TL to 4000 TL published in the Official Gazette under President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan’s signature, the decision has come into effect as of today. In addition to the 3000 TL deposited into accounts, it is expected that the schedule for SSI’s 1000 TL difference payments will be determined. With the publication of the proposal in the Official Gazette, the schedule for the difference payment will be set, and it will be deposited into accounts as soon as possible. Anticipated SSI’s 1000 TL difference payments are expected to be deposited shortly after the holidays.
