What this service does for you
SVA Zürich is the cantonal AHV compensation office. It pays out first-pillar pensions and family allowances. If an older relative has a stroke, this office answers questions about the current AHV pension and contribution gaps during a hospital or rehab stay. It is also the right contact point to start an application with the IV-Stelle, which should happen as early as possible after a stroke. For relatives who reduce their work to provide care, it is also worth asking here about family allowances and contribution gaps.
