The age of old-age pension payment varies depending on the year of birth, and from 1969 onward, you can receive it from the age of 65.

 

The old-age pension can be received up to five years earlier or later.

 

If you receive it first, the old-age pension will be reduced by 6% for each year you delay, and if you receive it 5 years earlier, it will be reduced by 30%.

 

In case of delay, the old-age pension increases by 7.2% for each year of delay, and increases by 36% for 5 years of delay.

My mother is also receiving a basic pension, so she receives a monthly communication fee reduction benefit.

 

While owning the building that was being rented, there were many things to worry about and expenses such as rent negotiations with tenants, vacancy, health insurance premiums, taxes, and lack of eligibility for basic pension benefits.

 

It is not easy to expect an increase in rent unless it is in a core commercial district.

 

Now I have sold the building and paid off the loan when it was built.

 

You no longer have to worry about disputes with tenants and vacancy, and you no longer have to pay health insurance premiums and taxes.

 

After registering for cancellation of the commercial rental business, you started receiving basic pension every month as a subject of basic old-age pension.

 

You spend the same amount of living expenses as when you receive rental income, but you say that you are so comfortable and like it.
