“The one-time financial assistance will be added to their benefits or allowances in September, as these individuals are registered by the Pension Fund as beneficiaries.

The money will be transferred to recipients’ bank cards at the beginning of the month. Some people will receive it in cash. People’s Bank of Uzbekistan will deliver it to their places of residence,” Shukhrat Davronov, Deputy Director of the Pension Fund, said.

In September, in addition to the above two categories, children under the age of 16 from low-income families will also receive 500 thousand soums.
