The lawyer told about the bailiffs' ability to collect debts from pensions

Bailiffs have the right to collect debts from citizens' pensions, but the amount of deductions is limited by law. This was announced on December 3 by Zulfiya Laipanova, Senior Associate at Mitra National Law Company.

"According to the law, a pension refers to a citizen's income, so bailiffs have the right to foreclose on it... However, the law strictly limits the amount of deductions," Laipanova explained in an interview with the Prime agency.

According to her, the arrest may apply to insurance and state old-age and disability pensions, funded pensions, superannuation allowances and other additional payments. At the same time, the penalty does not apply to payments for the loss of the breadwinner, lump-sum payments to pensioners and compensation for the care of the disabled.

The lawyer clarified that in most cases, no more than 50% can be written off from a pension — this applies to debts on loans, fines, utilities and taxes. With debts on alimony and compensation for harm to health and loss of the breadwinner, the deduction can reach up to 70%.

Earlier, on November 24, lawyer Alexey Petropolsky announced that Russians would be informed about the testators' debt obligations. Heirs will be able to compare debts with the value of the property transferred to them and give it up. According to the expert, as a rule, heirs do not know that they are inheriting not only property or settlement accounts, but also within the framework of all obligations of the deceased. Sometimes it happens that the inheritance does not cover the debts that pass to them, he added.
