There are many ways to lose pensions and social assistance from the state, but one of them is receiving money from another state. In particular, from an aggressor state. This was reported by the Main Department of the Pension Fund of Ukraine in Vinnytsia region, which emphasized that citizens of Ukraine who live in temporarily occupied territories or have left for the territory controlled by Ukraine are required to provide information about whether they receive payments from the pension authorities of the Russian Federation. These are pensions or insurance payments that can be received from the PFU only if you do not receive them from Russia.

Providing such information is mandatory and can be done in the most convenient way:
1) online through your personal account on the web portal of the Pension Fund of Ukraine in the “Remote Information” section, you can check the box next to “I do not receive a pension in another state, in particular from the pension provision authorities of the Russian Federation” and/or opposite the box “I do not receive insurance payments in connection with an accident/disability or loss of a breadwinner from another state, in particular from the Russian Federation”;
2) by video call – during a video conference with an employee of the Main Department of the Pension Fund of Ukraine;

3) in person at the service center, for which you need to submit an application for the appointment, renewal or extension of pension or insurance payments (submitted when applying for the appointment, renewal, extension of pension payments) or a notification in any form about the non-receipt of such payments from the Russian Federation;
4) by mail – send a notification in any form to the address of the territorial body of the Pension Fund where you are registered about receiving/not receiving payments from Russia, together with a certificate of survival or an application for the appointment, renewal or extension of pension payments (life support, insurance payments), in which you should indicate the necessary information, and attach a certificate of survival and additional documents.
The PFU emphasizes that submitting such a notification is a mandatory condition for further receipt of pensions or insurance payments by citizens who live in temporarily occupied territories or have left them for territories controlled by Ukraine.

Meanwhile, the Cabinet of Ministers has decided to return to Ukrainian pensioners about UAH 85 billion, which the courts have ordered pensioners to pay. However, due to a lack of funds, the payments will be made in stages.
