15 million for families of the deceased: who will be denied payments.
Financial support for families of deceased military personnel
According to inkorr.com: The state pays families of deceased servicemen 15 million hryvnias as compensation. However, not all family members can expect to receive these payments. Before they are awarded, a thorough investigation of the causes of the serviceman's death and the individuals eligible for compensation is conducted.
According to social security regulations, there are cases when state assistance is not granted. The main criterion is the reason for the defender's death, as reported by UNIAN.
Payments are not granted if the serviceman's death occurred: - as a result of a criminal or administrative offense; - due to actions while under the influence of alcohol or drugs; - due to suicide.
To receive compensation, family members must meet certain requirements.
In addition to examining the circumstances of the death, government agencies also consider who can receive the 15 million hryvnias. The law defines three categories of relatives who are not entitled to receive payments:
- Individuals who provided false information.
- Those who committed crimes against the family.
- Individuals who evaded support for the deceased.
The compensation of 15 million hryvnias is paid to families in stages, allowing for convenient budget planning and protection against fraud.
Thus, while the state provides financial support to families of deceased servicemen, there are certain restrictions and conditions for receiving this compensation. Not all family members can utilize this assistance, and various criteria and exclusions are considered when determining payments.
