Pensioners from Occupied Territories: How to Confirm Identity for Payments.

Pensioners who temporarily stayed in occupied territories and relocated to controlled territory in Ukraine must confirm their identity in order to continue receiving pension payments. This is a requirement of the Pension Fund of Ukraine that applies to all citizens who lived in occupation. According to government regulations, no pension payments from Russia are allowed.

Identification Procedure

According to inkorr.com: Identification can be done online through the PFU website or in the 'Diia' app, as well as personally at the Fund's office. For this, it is necessary to have your passport, identification code, and pension certificate with you. This will help ensure stable receipt of pension payments at the new place of residence and prevent abuses.

Mandatory Identification

All relocated pensioners who moved to controlled territory in Ukraine are required to undergo identification to continue receiving pension payments. This process can be conducted both online and in person by visiting a Pension Fund office with the necessary documents. It is important for the uninterrupted receipt of funds and to avoid possible abuses.

Thus, the new requirement of the Pension Fund is an important step for the protection of the rights of pensioners who were forced to leave their homes due to occupation. The identification procedure will help ensure that pension payments are received only by those who truly need them and will contribute to stability in the social payment system.
