Pensions in Question: Who and How Should Undergo Identification to Receive Payments

According to hvylya.net: The Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine approved resolution No. 299, which establishes special rules for the payment of pensions, lifelong financial support, and insurance compensation for industrial injuries and occupational diseases. This document provides special requirements for the continuation of payments to Ukrainians living abroad or in temporarily occupied territories.

Ukrainians have been informed about who and how should undergo identification to receive pensions and insurance payments. This was reported by the press service of the Pension Fund of Ukraine.

Personal identification has become mandatory by the end of each calendar year. This procedure confirms identity through document and data verification.

In particular, pensioners and recipients of insurance payments who live in temporarily occupied territories or are temporarily abroad must identify themselves by December 31 using one of the available methods.

• Online via the web portal of electronic services of the Pension Fund of Ukraine.
• Through video conferencing.
• Through Ukrainian diplomatic missions abroad.
• In person at a service center or banking institution.

More details about this procedure can be found on the official website of the Pension Fund of Ukraine. We remind that residents of temporarily occupied territories must declare the absence of payments from Russia in order to continue receiving pensions and insurance payments.

Pensioners and veterans are being prepared for payments from the state, so remember the necessity of identification to receive your payments.
