The Pension Fund of Ukraine explained who and how can now receive social assistance instead of a pension

The Pension Fund of Ukraine provides state social assistance to individuals without a pension and the disabled. This is an important type of support that is available even without insurance experience.

Persons aged 65 who are not entitled to a pension, or low-income citizens, can receive this assistance. Disabled individuals and children of deceased breadwinners can also claim it. The amount of assistance is determined individually, depending on the disability group.

To receive assistance, it is necessary to have a packet of documents, including an application, an identification document, and an income declaration. In the event of the recipient's death, the person who arranged the funeral may receive assistance for this service. For more detailed information, you can contact the Pension Fund of Ukraine's contact center.
