Pensioners in Mexico: How Much Will They Receive in October?

In recent days, some pensioners from the Mexican Social Security Institute (IMSS) and the Institute for Social Security and Services for State Workers (ISSSTE) have turned to digital platforms to inquire about the amount they should receive in their pension payments for October.

Both IMSS and ISSSTE were forced to make adjustments to the payment dates for their retired workers, as the usual deposit days will fall on bank holidays. According to the official calendar of the Institute for Social Security and Services for State Workers (ISSSTE), the deposit for their pensioners and retirees for the month of October will be made on Friday, September 27th, while retired workers affiliated with the Mexican Social Security Institute (IMSS) will experience a slight delay, as they will not be able to access their funds until Wednesday, October 2nd.
