Key points
- The supplement equals half of the subsistence minimum for disabled persons
- In 2027, the allowance may increase to about UAH 1,439
- Applicants must officially prove the financial dependency of their family member
In 2027, the monthly pension supplement for certain military retirees could rise to approximately UAH 1,439. This increase is tied to the draft state budget, which proposes raising the subsistence minimum for disabled individuals, as this benchmark directly determines the allowance amount.
Who Is Eligible for Additional Funds
Former military personnel receiving pensions for length of service or for disability (groups I, II, or III) are eligible for financial assistance to support disabled relatives. However, this provision does not apply to former conscripted servicemen.
The primary requirement is that the dependent family member must rely entirely on the pensioner and receive no independent state benefits, such as age-based pensions or disability allowances. If an individual qualifies for multiple types of social assistance, they must choose only one.
How to Apply for the Allowance
- Contact the territorial bodies of the Pension Fund of Ukraine.
- Submit identity documents and the taxpayer registry number.
- Provide proof of family ties and joint residence with the dependent.
- Confirm that the relative has no employment or business activities.
Additionally, current legislation provides for other types of supplements, such as for pensioners who have raised five or more children, alongside government plans to reform the pension system in the coming years.
