In mid-February 2026, Argentina's social security agency Anses announced the payment schedule for non-contributory pensions, including the PUAM (Pensión Universal para el Adulto Mayor). These payments are part of the government's social benefits program aimed at supporting elderly citizens without sufficient contributory history. The payment calendar for the week of February 16 to 20 specifies the exact dates when beneficiaries will receive their pensions. This schedule is critical for financial planning among recipients and reflects ongoing government efforts to maintain social welfare distribution.
