The Socialists announce the improvement of widow's pensions, contemplated in the General State Budgets for 2018 and that benefits pensioners with 65 or more years of age and offers a counseling service for those who have not been practiced ex officio by have met the age requirement as of August 1.

The councilor of the PSOE in the City of Lorca, Andrea Periago Lopez has reported that the Government of Spain through the Ministry of Labor, Migration and Social Security is practicing ex officio the improvement in benefits "to all those widow's pensions caused before the August 1, 2018, whose holders meet the established requirements "

The socialist councilor explains that this increase in the provision of widowhood "is the result of the increase in the percentage applicable to the regulatory base of their benefit from 52% to 56%, agreed by the Government in the accounts for 2018."

These increases explained by the mayor have been practiced ex officio by Social Security to widow's pensions caused before August 1 and that met the requirements for the increase approved in the Budgets.

However, Periago López warns that some of the beneficiaries of the measure must apply to the Administration themselves, including those who have reached the age of 65 as of August 1 and have not benefited from the increase already made ex officio.

For what the mayor stressed that these people should request the increase in person at the Centers of Care and Information of Social Security (CAISS) or via telematics.

In this sense, the socialist councilor announces that both from the Municipal Socialist Group and the Socialist Group of Lorca offers a counseling service to those who are in this circumstance, who meet the requirements of this increase in widow's pension and they have not been practiced ex officio for having completed the years as of August 1.

In this way the mayor stands out - once from the PSOE we put ourselves at the service of the citizen, advising and indicating how to access this improvement in their widow's benefit approved by the Government of Spain.
