IMPORTANT INFORMATION:
Obsah
You can only apply to have your pension transferred to your spouse’s bank account if you have the right to dispose of the funds in that account at the time you receive your pension.
Can I have my pension sent to another family member’s bank account?
Text
No, your pension cannot be transferred to the bank account of a family member other than the spouse. Nor can it be paid to an account owned by your special beneficiary or guardian.
How long does it take for the Social Insurance Agency to pay my pension into my spouse's account?
Text
A maximum of three months, but these should be calculated from the date of the pension payment following the calendar month in which the application was received by the Social Insurance Agency. This means that if your application was received by the Social Insurance Agency on, for example, January 10 and your pension payment date is the 20th of the month, you will have your pension paid to your spouse's account no later than April 20 of that year.
