      5. To confirm the service, it is necessary to make an entry in the service record of a personal file, which shall be certified by the signature of an authorized official of the governing body, the official seal with the date of confirmation. This entry contains all calendar periods of service, as well as periods taken into account on preferential terms.

      2) extracts from orders of the heads of units, or extracts from the archives confirming the service, including that on preferential terms;

      3) a document confirming compulsory military service (the original and/or copy of a military ID or a certificate issued by a local military command authority);

      6) given work record after January 1, 1998, it is necessary to provide documents confirming the transfer of mandatory pension contributions.

      7. The length of service of a military serviceman (servicewoman) with account of preferential terms is computed on the basis of such documents as:

      2) extracts from orders indicating the height of the area above sea level, or certificates from the authorized body for geodesy and cartography on the height of the area above sea level - in highlands;

      11. The Center, within 5 working days of receipt of the personal file of a military serviceman (servicewoman), computes his/her length of service for pension payments.

      The computation of the length of service with account of work record to decide on the entitlement to pension payments is made on the day the military serviceman (servicewoman) is removed from the lists of a unit in connection with his/her retirement.

      12. In case the received personal file is incomplete, the Center shall notify the unit thereof within 1 working day, indicating the need to provide the missing documents. Within 3 working days, the units shall send the necessary documents specified in the notification to the Center.

      13. When computing the length of service (work record), the start date of the eligibility period shall be indicated according to the actual start date, and the end date - according to the date following the day of the end of the eligibility period.

      14. The beginning of the officer’s term of service called to military service from the reserve shall be fixed as the date of issuance of the conscription order by a local military command body or the date of the officer’s departure to the designated duty station.

      15. All calendar periods of military service and periods of eligibility for the length of service on preferential terms, as well as the total length of service for retirement, shall be indicated in the computation separately.

      16. If the length of service and/or total work record of a military serviceman (servicewoman) at the time of computing the length of service for pension payments is less than 25 years, it is necessary to make an entry in the computation on the ineligibility for pension payments for the length of service, in accordance with paragraph 1 of Article 64 of the Law of the Republic Kazakhstan “On Pension Provision in the Republic of Kazakhstan” as of June 21, 2013.

      When a military serviceman (servicewoman) retires, the final computation of the length of service is made on the day of his/her removal from the list of the unit. The results are displayed on the back of the computation sheet and it is necessary to affix the stamp “As of “ __ ”_____ 20__, the total work record is __ years __ months__ days, of which: the length of service is __ years __ months__ days, including those in calendar terms __ years __ months __ days, the work record is __ years __ months ___ days, including those in calendar terms __ years __ months __ days. ”

      18. The length of service for retirement is computed in a single copy in the form prescribed by Appendices 1-4 to this Instruction and recorded in the personal files’ register in accordance with Appendix 5 to this Instruction.

      If the computation of the length of service is lost, the Center shall issue a duplicate of the computation of the length of service on the basis of a personal file and materials from an official investigation into the fact of the computation’s loss by the appointed official.

      19. The length of service of a military serviceman (servicewoman) without a work record before conscription is computed in accordance with the form in Appendix 1 to this Instruction.

      20.

      21. The approved computation of the length of service for pension payment is valid for 1 year from the date of its compilation; in case of the military serviceman’s (servicewoman’s) transfer to a new duty station, which affects the length of service, it shall be revised.

      22. After the personal file’s arrival at the unit, the responsible official shall familiarize the military serviceman (servicewoman) with the computation of his/her length of service against his/her signature. In case of the military serviceman’s (servicewoman’s) disagreement with the computation of the length of service, his/her objection shall be considered within 1 month of the computation’s receipt.

      23. In the event that the continuous length of service of a military serviceman (servicewoman) is less than 12 years and 6 months, the length of service shall be computed without taking into account his/her work record prior to conscription.

      In case of the personal file’s resubmission for computing the length of service, the previous computation of the length of service shall be replaced by the new computation, which is attached to the personal file and the first page of the service record shall contain the entry about the date of the re-computation and signature of an authorized person of the Center.

      24. The work record of a military serviceman (servicewoman) before conscription is computed on the basis of the following documents:

      1) the original work-record book and its copy (given labor activity before January 1, 1998), copies of a diploma, secondary school diploma, birth certificates of children, a court order, or an extract from the archives confirming labor activity.

      2) the turnover sheet on the depositor’s transit accounts confirming the transfer of mandatory pension contributions (given labor activity after January 1, 1998).

      25. In the absence of the start date of studies in a diploma or certificate of education before conscription, to compute the work record, September 1 is fixed as the start date of an academic year.

      26. If a military serviceman (servicewoman) is a member of a collective farm, his/her work record is in direct proportion to the fulfillment of annual labor norms (workdays) established by the collective farm’s board. In case of a failure to fulfill the annual norm of workdays, the work record is computed by determining the percentage of fulfilling this norm and deriving the number of days of the work record based on the number of days in a year (365 days).

      27. The period of residence of spouses of military personnel (except for compulsory-duty servicemen (servicewomen) in areas with the lack of employment opportunities in the specialty shall be confirmed by such documents as:
