Ukrainians Simplified the Process of Receiving Pensions and Identification: Who Will Be Affected.

The process of receiving pensions and identification for internally displaced persons, citizens abroad, and residents of temporarily occupied territories has been simplified for Ukrainians.

According to 'Hvylya', this was reported by the press service of the Ministry of Social Policy.

Expansion of Pension Payment Opportunities

The updates concern the ability to receive pension payments. Now pensioners can receive funds through any bank or via 'Ukrposhta', not limited to Oschadbank.

The changes apply to all pensioners living in temporarily occupied territories, even without a document confirming their status as internally displaced persons.

Changing the Recipient Bank and Important Conditions for Pensioners

To change the recipient bank for pensions, there are several options: contact the Pension Fund of Ukraine, use online services, or submit an application at the bank.

• Undergo physical identification annually (by December 31).
• Perform transactions with the card no less than once every six months.

It is also important for pensioners in temporarily occupied territories and abroad to report the non-receipt of pensions from the Russian Federation.

We remind that Ukrainians will be able to learn how to authorize on the PFU portal using a bank card.

The changes made will simplify the process of receiving pensions and identification for Ukrainians in different parts of the world, making their financial planning and access to necessary services easier.
