#Benefits

The Verkhovna Rada has passed draft law No. 5651-2 in the second reading: 235 votes in favor. The law introduces a unified automated fare recording system, targeted monetary benefits, and the e-ticket as the primary document.

Ukrainians risk losing housing benefits due to delayed notifications to the Pension Fund, income exceeding UAH 4,660, or registry errors.

Unemployed pensioners with no additional income in Ukraine can apply for a housing subsidy, category-specific benefits, and solid fuel support. The amount of assistance is calculated individually.

Ukrainian pensioners can receive several pension supplements simultaneously, including allowances for veteran status, care, and children under 18, though some payments are mutually exclusive.

The Kyiv City Council simplified the procedure for receiving benefits for defenders and their families: mandatory certificates in forms No. 5 and No. 6 have been abolished, as well as the annual resubmission of documents. The rules for families of missing persons have been simplified, and the rights of children up to the age of 23 have been expanded.

🏠 **Benefit instead of subsidy: what families of deceased defenders need to know** The PFU reminded: if the subsidy is 0 UAH, you can apply for a utility benefit. 👉 **Main point:** You cannot receive both a subsidy and a benefit simultaneously. You must choose one. 📉 **Norms:** - Ordinary families: 21 sq.m per person + 10.5 sq.m for the family. - Only non-working (pensioners): 42 sq.m per person + 21 sq.m for the family. 🔄 **Important:** If you want a subsidy in winter — submit an application. If the subsidy is 0 again in summer — the benefit will be restored automatically. #Ukraine #PFU #Benefits #Utilities #Defenders
