Impact of incomes not from work on pension rate
If you have an income not from work (such as retirement pension, rent, scholarship, other benefits from the NII or other entities, return on investments) and are entitled to an increment for a spouse and/or children – this income will impact the increment you are due in the following manner:
NIS 1,200 of the income will not be disregarded.
Any income above NIS 1,200 will be deducted in full from the amount of the increment you are due.
In any event, the pension paid after the deduction will amount to a full monthly pension at least - NIS 4,063 .
Please note, alimony payments paid by the father for his children are not deducted from the increment for children on the mother's disability pension.
However, alimony paid for the mother are regarded as part of her income not from work, and as such are deducted from the increment for children.
