Within the framework of the Government program initiated by the President of Ukraine, "Winter Support", the Ministry of Social Policy has provided for payments to the following categories:
The specified categories will be able to receive this payment through the Diia application or by applying independently to the Pension Fund of Ukraine. First, you will receive a notification on your phone from Diia, or if the recipient does not use Diia, from the Pension Fund, that such a payment is already pending.
Users of the Diia application should: Make sure the Diia application is updated to the latest version; Select Services → Winter Support → Winter 6,500 UAH. Confirm that you have an active Diia.Card to which the funds will be credited. If you do not have a Diia.Card – Diia will offer to open one online while creating the application. Submit the completed application.
If you do not use the "Diia" application, submit a written application at the nearest service center of the Pension Fund of Ukraine: Fund employees will help you fill out the application for the Winter 6500 UAH, open a Diia.Card or another card with a special usage mode at a bank.
