Pensions can be inherited. Let me give you a brief introduction to the scope and methods of pension inheritance.
1. The pension consists of two parts: one is the basic pension, and the other is the personal account pension, in which the basic pension is paid from the overall fund, and the personal account pension is paid from the personal account storage. If the life span of an individual is too long to be paid, the pension in the individual account will be transferred to the overall fund, so as to ensure that the pension in the individual account can continue to be paid. According to the provisions of the Social Insurance Law, the pension balance in individual accounts can be inherited according to law.
2. Inheritance of pensions If there is a legal and valid will, it should be divided according to testamentary inheritance. If there is no will, it will be inherited by legal inheritance after division.
3. The first order of legal succession is: spouse, children and parents. The second order is: brothers and sisters, grandparents and grandparents. After the inheritance begins, the successor in the first order inherits, but the successor in the second order cannot inherit. If there is no successor in the first order, it is inherited by the successor in the second order.
What needs to be reminded is that the scope of the decedent's estate is diverse and complicated. If you encounter inheritance cases, it is suggested that you hire a professional marriage and family lawyer to intervene in the case, so as to better avoid risks and safeguard your legitimate rights and interests.
Legal objectivity:
Pensions can be inherited. According to the provisions of China's Inheritance Law, heritage includes citizens' legitimate income, citizens' houses and daily necessities, citizens' trees, livestock and poultry, citizens' books, cultural relics and other collectibles, means of production that citizens are allowed to own by law, property rights in citizens' intellectual property rights and other legal properties that can be inherited according to law. Pension can be inherited as a citizen's legacy. But it is divided into two situations: if the beneficiary is specified in the old-age insurance contract, the beneficiary will get the old-age insurance money. If the beneficiary is not specified in the contract, the insurance money can be taken as the inheritance of the insured and obtained by his heirs. Inheriting old-age insurance money is divided into two situations: one is that the insured dies during the payment period. All insurance premiums paid by the insured shall be returned to his legal heir or designated beneficiary. The other is that the insured dies while receiving a pension. We know that the period for the insured to receive the pension is 10 year. If he dies less than 10 years after receiving the pension, the balance of individual contributions in the individual pension insurance account can be returned to his legal heir at one time; If there is no heir or designated beneficiary, the funeral expenses shall be paid in accordance with the relevant provisions of the rural social endowment insurance management institution. Therefore, children have the right to inherit and receive their parents' pensions. The pension here is inherited by the children as the inheritance of the parents.
