June 27, 2022 9:51 amHello Dario,
Your question is very specific to your personal scenario, it would be best that you contact pension call centre to have an agent to run through the number in the system to find out if you qualify for GIS. The GIS program runs from July to June of each year. Your GIS benefits for the upcoming cycle (July 2022 to June 2023) will be calculated based on your 2021 income. If it was below GIS threshold, you will be paid GIS. However, based on what you said that you will be collecting pension from Berlin starting August 2022, this income will be calculated against your 2022 income tax wich will affect your entitlement to next GIS payment cycle (July 2023 to June 2024).
This is just the basic general rule of GIS benefit.
