Social Security Court dismisses pension suspension claim, ruling business income counts even without social insurance obligation.
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court dismissed the pensioner's cassation appeal against a decision to reduce her family pension due to undisclosed business income. The Social Insurance Institution argued that income from non-agricultural business activities must be considered for pension suspension regardless of whether the individual is subject to mandatory social insurance. The court upheld this view, defining income broadly to include receivables and rejecting the argument that lack of insurance obligation exempts the pensioner from reporting earnings.
