After his term as president ends, Jair Bolsonaro (PL) should continue to receive a pension of more than R$ 30 thousand. The value was defined in a law published in the Official Gazette of the Union (DOU) on Friday, December 2nd.
The publication was an initiative of Arthur Lira (PP-AL), president of the Chamber of Deputies. The value was determined based on calculations by legislative technicians and takes into account the fact that Bolsonaro was a federal deputy between 1991 and 2018.
What will be the value of Bolsonaro's retirement?
According to the document, retirement is equivalent to 32.5% of the parliamentary allowance – that is, R$ 10,972 – for having been a deputy and another 20/35 of the fixed allowance for members of the National Congress for the period of service in Congress. Which would correspond to R$ 19,293.
Thus, Jair Bolsonaro would be entitled to around R$ 30,265 per month.
What does the Legislation say?
The calculation of Jair Bolsonaro's retirement was made based on two laws that deal with congressmen's pensions, and Lira used the basis for editing the publication.
The First Law – Law No. 7,087, of December 29, 1982 – concerns the extinct Congressmen's Social Security Institute. According to her, the pension is granted by mandate and requires the payment of contributions for the waiting period, in addition to the minimum age of 50 years.
The other law – Law No. 9,506, of October 30, 1997 – provides that pensions will be granted to those who, at the end of their term, complete an eight-year grace period, an option that guarantees the right to proportional retirement.
Jair Bolsonaro's salary won't change much
Considering Jair Bolsonaro's current salary, there will be no major changes after his term ends with this retirement. Because today he receives a total of R$ 30,934.70. It will only be R$ 669.70 less.
