Talking to Lao Dong Newspaper, a media officer of Phu Tho Social Insurance said that, usually, pensions in the area are paid from the 1st of every month.
However, September 2026, this time coincides with the holiday, so payment will be made on the first working day of the month.
According to the National Day holiday schedule in 2026, officials, civil servants, and public employees are entitled to 5 consecutive days off, from Saturday (August 29) to the end of Wednesday (September 2).
Thus, the first working day in September is Thursday, September 3, 2026. This is also the expected time to start paying September pensions in Phu Tho.
In addition to ensuring progress, Phu Tho Social Insurance continues to promote the form of receiving pensions and social insurance allowances through personal accounts.
This method helps beneficiaries reduce waiting time, limit crowded gatherings, and increase transparency and safety in the process of receiving money.
Over the past time, the Provincial Social Insurance and affiliated establishments have coordinated with the Provincial Police, banks, Provincial Post Office, and commune and ward authorities to deploy propaganda and support beneficiaries to open accounts at payment points.
According to statistics from Phu Tho Provincial Social Insurance, by the end of May 2026, the whole province reached 88.77% of payment rates through non-cash payment methods.
In Viet Tri, Nong Trang, Thanh Mieu, Van Phu and Hy Cuong communes, about 4,000 new accounts have been developed.
In the payment periods, the social insurance sector continues to coordinate with banks, post offices and the police to support opening accounts, guiding registration to receive monthly pensions and social insurance allowances through non-cash methods.
