Starting in April, internally displaced persons will be able to apply for living assistance through the Pension Fund of Ukraine’s e-services portal.

This was reported by the Ministry of Social Policy, Family, and Unity of Ukraine, according to "Komersant Ukrainian".

It is noted that the relevant option will become available on the PFU’s e-services portal.

How to submit an application

Applications can be submitted online using a qualified electronic signature.

Displaced persons will also be able to contact:

  • the service centers of the Pension Fund of Ukraine;
  • local government bodies;
  • the Administrative Services Center.

Expanded Support for IDPs

Previously, the Ministry of Social Policy, Family, and Unity of Ukraine expanded the categories of displaced persons eligible to receive living assistance.

In addition, the maximum duration of payments has been increased.

Now, the number of six-month payment periods has increased from four to five, allowing the most vulnerable categories of displaced persons to receive state support for an additional six months.
