Thus, according to the amendments to the Social Code, in the event of the death of a person who had pension savings in the UAPF, the lump-sum pension benefit for burial is paid to his family members at the expense of the pension savings of the deceased person within the size of the 94 times monthly calculation index established for the corresponding financial year by the law on the republican budget (MCI), but not more than the funds available on the deceased person’s individual pension saving account (IPSA).

If the balance of pension savings on the deceased person's IPSA after making a lump-sum pension benefit for burial will amount not exceeding the amount of the minimum pension, this balance is paid as a pension benefit for burial to the family members of the deceased.

It is a reminder that earlier, the application for a lump-sum pension benefit for burial could also be submitted by the persons who carried out the burial, and the pension benefit was an amount equal to 52.4 times MCI.

In case of death of a person who had pension savings in the UAPF, they are inherited in accordance with the procedure established by the legislation of the Republic of Kazakhstan.
