What this service does for you

Almost every Swiss municipality has its own AHV branch, usually directly in the municipal administration. There, simple AHV matters such as applying for an old-age pension, helplessness allowance in old age, or initial information on supplementary benefits can be handled close to home, before more complicated IV questions are forwarded to the cantonal compensation office or IV office. The national website ahv-iv.ch lists all cantonal compensation offices and IV offices in one place; the fastest way to find your local municipal branch is on the website of your municipality.
