The Prime Minister announced this afternoon a tax relief on IRS and a new pension bonus, but the specific details about these measures have not yet been revealed. The measures were presented as part of a broader set of government policies to support taxpayers and pensioners.
Joaquim Miranda Sarmento, speaking on SIC Notícias, only stated that the pension bonus will be 'similar' to the one practiced in 2025. This was the only concrete information the minister revealed about the nature of the new support for pensioners.
In 2025, pension bonuses ranged between 100 and 200 euros, depending on various factors that were not specified in the article. The government chose not to detail the criteria used to determine the exact values of this new bonus.
Portuguese citizens will have to wait for more information to learn the specific amounts of the new pension bonus, as well as the eligibility criteria, since the Executive has deferred those clarifications to a later date.
