Accrual and recalculation of pensions in Ukraine: How to get larger payments

  The ability to significantly increase the pension depends on several factors: "A person who has been released from the Armed Forces of Ukraine until 2018 and did not pass lawsuits, can now increase his pension by 80-90%in one lawsuit, and in 2 lawsuits - to receive a pension 4 times more than that of the right. " Khomych ”Elena Voronkova.

Those who have recently been dismissed, for example, in 2023 or 2025, can list their financial support during the service period after 2020, get in the form of compensation from 6 of their salaries and increase the pension from 20% also of persons who have recently been fired from service, for example, in 2023 or 2025 wages and increase the pension from 20%, if they were assigned.

This is all possible due to the fact that the courts have amended a number of resolutions of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine, in particular No. 103 “On recalculation of pensions to persons dismissed from military service and some other categories of persons”. In view of this, the lawyer recommends that you go to court and defend her legal right to receive the proper pension sums.

"The first step for pensioners until 2018 should be a referral to his department, from which a person was dismissed with a request for a certificate for 2019, as well as 2024," - says Elena Voronkova. Further, having received the 2019 certificate, it is necessary to send an application for a recalculation of the pension on the basis of an updated certificate with such certificate to the territorial body of the Pension Fund (PFU) in which such person is registered.

PFU traditionally corresponds to the refusal to such an appeal and the refusal of the pension is the basis for appeal to court. "As for the 2024 certificate, the agencies are not issued in voluntary and in response to the appeal, they refuse to issue a certificate, such a refusal is also appealed to court," the lawyer says.

To obtain payments to pensioners who have been released by 2018, it is necessary: for dismissed after 2020 it is necessary: for dismissed after 2020, it is necessary to submit a corresponding application to the military unit or management with a request to transfer monetary support at the current subsistence minimum “to execute a judgment in this category of cases.

20 thousand UAH, then you can judge 120 thousand UAH and new documents for the purpose of the pension, ie the monetary certificate and a certificate of additional types of financial security, on the basis of which it will be possible to transfer a pension, ” - said Voronkova. It should be noted that Ukraine plans to introduce changes to the legislation and make it impossible to recalculate.
