New Child Benefit Payments Launching in 2026: How to Receive 7,000 and 8,000 Hryvnias.

State Support for Families with Children in 2026

According to Novyny.live: Starting January 1, 2026, an updated system of state assistance for families with children will launch in Ukraine. This initiative aims to provide crucial financial support during a vital period of family life. Families will be able to open special accounts at Oschadbank to receive new types of state aid, which includes not only childcare payments but also participation in the 'eYasla' program.

Payment Amounts and the 'eYasla' Program

The childcare payment for a child under one year old will be 7,000 hryvnias per child. For families raising a child with a disability, the assistance amount will be 10,500 hryvnias. Furthermore, the 'eYasla' program provides monthly payments of 8,000 hryvnias per child, enabling parents to ensure proper care and development for their young children. These measures are part of a broader social policy shift in Ukraine following the full-scale invasion.

• Childcare payment (under one year): 7,000 hryvnias.
• Assistance for families with a child with a disability: 10,500 hryvnias.
• Monthly 'eYasla' program payments: 8,000 hryvnias per child.

All payments will be made to special accounts with a specific usage regime via the 'Diia.Card'. It is important to note that the fund limit at Oschadbank in 2026 will not exceed two minimum monthly wages. These innovations are intended to support families with children and improve their financial well-being.

The introduction of these new state support types demonstrates the government's increasing focus on social issues.

Supporting families, especially those raising children with disabilities, can positively impact their financial situation. This overhaul of the assistance system also addresses contemporary challenges faced by Ukrainian families and represents a significant step toward improving the quality of life for new parents.
