What liquidación includes

In ordinary usage, liquidación = finiquito + 90-day indemnity + 20 days per year + seniority premium, when the dismissal is unjustified.

Liquidación, in ordinary usage, is the finiquito plus constitutional indemnity of 90 days, 20 days per year of service, and the seniority premium. Indemnity is calculated on integrated daily salary. The seniority premium is capped at two minimum wages, not two UMAs. The headline total is gross. Estimated ISR on indemnity and prima de antigüedad uses article 93 XIII (90 UMA × years) and article 96, sixth paragraph.

Formula

Liquidación = finiquito + (SDI × 90) + (SDI × 20 × years) + seniority premium

Worked example

A worker earning MXN 20,000 monthly is dismissed without cause on 15 August 2026 after starting on 15 January 2018.

Assumptions

  • Unjustified dismissal is the default reason.
  • Years for the 20-day amount use exact days ÷ 365.
  • LISR years for the 90 UMA exemption round up only a fraction of more than six months.
  • Employer withholding is estimated; annual article 95 tax may differ.

Not covered

  • Court-awarded back wages, reinstatement scenarios, and treating the headline total as net pay.

FAQ

Who receives liquidación?

The 90-day and 20-day amounts apply to unjustified dismissal or employer-caused rescission, not to an ordinary resignation.

Do I get prima de antigüedad if I resign?

Only after at least 15 years of service. Dismissal pays it regardless of seniority.

Does this include ISR?

The headline total is gross. Estimated employer withholding is shown separately. It is not the official SAT calculator and is not the annual article 95 tax.
