Citizens can now apply in just a few clicks for maternity benefits as well as monthly child care payments for children under the age of one. Prime Minister of Ukraine Serhii Koretskyi announced the launch of the service on his Telegram channel, noting that the initiative is designed to streamline bureaucratic procedures for families. ### How Automated Application Processing Works Once a user fills out and submits an application through the Diia mobile app, the system automatically transmits it to the Unified Information System of the Social Sphere. This digital platform independently gathers necessary data from various state registries and generates a preliminary decision on payments. The final stage of processing involves verification and approval by a designated specialist from the Pension Fund of Ukraine. For citizens who, for various reasons, do not use digital channels, the option to apply for state assistance through traditional methods remains available. Corresponding applications are accepted at regional service centers of the Pension Fund, administrative service centers, and through authorized representatives of local territorial communities. ### Amounts of State Assistance and Recipient Categories The established amounts of monthly payments range from 7,000 to 10,500 hryvnias, depending on the social status and circumstances of the specific family. In particular, maternity benefits of 7,000 hryvnias per month are provided for women who are not officially insured in the state compulsory social insurance system. A similar amount of 7,000 hryvnias is paid monthly as child care assistance until the child reaches the age of one. For families raising a child with a disability, the state provides increased financial support. In such cases, the amount of the monthly care allowance is 10,500 hryvnias. The funding for these programs is implemented as part of nationwide support for motherhood and childhood, alongside the adaptation of social standards to current economic conditions. ### Context of Social Payments and Budgetary Changes The introduction of new services in the Diia app takes place against the backdrop of a large-scale update of social standards in Ukraine. Earlier, starting January 1, 2026, the country already saw changes in the maximum limits for sick leave payments and maternity benefits, directly linked to the increase in the minimum wage. State institutions continue the digitalization of social services to minimize paper document flow. Simultaneously, the government and parliament are considering the expansion of other social initiatives. Specifically, the Budget Committee of the Verkhovna Rada previously included instructions to the government regarding amendments to increase housing allowances for internally displaced persons by 1,000 hryvnias starting next year. The final decision on these budgetary parameters will be made during the second reading of the country's main financial document. ## Fact-Check & Sources - [В "Дії" можно теперь оформить выплаты для беременных и пособие на ребенка до года: какие суммы](https://www.rbc.ua/ukr/news/diyi-mozhna-oformiti-viplati-vagitnih-i-dopomogu-1792496791.html) - Primary source confirms the launch of Diia services, payment amounts ranging from 7,000 to 10,500 UAH, and Pension Fund involvement. - [Оформление выплат на ребенка до года и в связи с беременностью запущено в приложении "Дія"](https://censor.net/ru/news/4029410/vyplaty-na-rebenka-i-beremennym-mojno-oformit-v-prilojenii-d-kak-imenno) - Confirms the launch of maternity and child care benefit applications in the Diia app. - [В "Дії" можно оформить пособие по беременности и выплаты на ребенка до года](https://kp.ua/life/a737667-v-dejstvii-mozhno-oformit-posobie-po-beremennosti-i-vyplaty-na-rebenka-do-hoda) - Confirms all figures, Prime Minister Serhii Koretskyi's announcement, and processing mechanisms through the social sphere system. - [Теперь е-Карту налогоплательщика можно оформить в Дії, - Свириденко](https://ukranews.com/news/1151919-teper-e-kartu-nalogoplatelshhika-mozhno-oformit-v-diyi-sviridenko) - Contextual source regarding other digital services in Diia. ## FAQ ### What payments can now be processed in the Diia app?
