Pensioners, whose financial difficulties have increased following the tax and price increases that began after the elections, expect to receive bonuses on October 29, Republic Day. While no official statement has been made yet, it is stated that the bonus will be 5,000 lira and will be announced before October 29, Republic Day.
WILL THE REPUBLIC DAY BONUS BE GIVEN?
The claim that a bonus will be given for Republic Day is yet to be confirmed by government representatives, but it is claimed that it will be given to pensioners on the occasion of the centenary of the Republic.
While studies continue on the amount of the single bonus, it is said that the figure of 5,000 lira was the first to be on the table.
Additional increases for retirees are expected to be on the agenda after the opening of the Turkish Grand National Assembly (TBMM) on October 1 and will be announced to the public before Republic Day on October 29.
5 THOUSAND TL BONUS QUESTION FOR PENSIONERS
Hamza Dağ, on the question of whether 5,000 lira bonuses will be given to retirees on October 29, said: “It is not correct to give a date because of my position. I really don’t know what stage it is at. However, our Ministry of Treasury and Finance and our Ministry of Labor and Social Security are working quickly on this issue to meet the demands of our retirees and make the right decision when discussing the issue of budget balance. “Hopefully, when the work on this issue is completed, they will share it with the public,” he said.
