Pension due to the loss of the breadwinner: how to extend payments after reaching adulthood.

The Pension Fund of Ukraine in the Donetsk region explained the conditions for pension payments to individuals after the age of 18 who have lost their breadwinner.

According to specialists' information, such pension payments stop after reaching adulthood if the individual does not continue their education.

'However, students who study full-time in educational institutions have the right to continue receiving the pension. This privileged status is granted until the end of their studies, but no later than the age of 23.'

To maintain payments, it is necessary to submit a personal application to the Pension Fund.
