  1. If a person has a disability of the II group, he is entitled to a disability allowance. The size of these payments depends on the size of the subsistence minimum for a person with a disability.

  2. When a person who has reached the age of 65 is not granted the right to a pension due to insufficient insurance experience, he may be assigned social assistance in the form of a guaranteed minimum income of citizens. The amount of such assistance also depends on the amount of subsistence minimum for a person who does not work.

To receive these payments, you need to apply to the social protection authorities at your place of residence.
