State social assistance is assigned and paid to low-income families who permanently live on the territory of Ukraine and, for valid or independent reasons, have an average monthly total income less than the subsistence minimum for the family. The family's right to this assistance depends not only on income, but also on its property status, employment of able-bodied family members and other factors.

The following incomes are included in the average monthly total income:

  • salary in the amount remaining after paying personal income tax;

  • financial support of military personnel;

  • pension, monthly lifetime financial maintenance of retired judges;

  • stipend, including the amount of its indexation calculated in accordance with the law (except for the social stipend, which is provided to orphans, children deprived of parental care, and persons from their number);

  • social payments, which are assigned by the structural subdivisions on issues of social protection of the population of the district, district in mm. Kyiv and Sevastopol state administrations, executive bodies of city councils of cities of regional significance, district councils in cities (in case of formation) (hereinafter referred to as social protection bodies), including benefits for payment of housing and communal services, purchase of solid fuel and liquefied gas;

The Family Code of Ukraine indicates that the parent with whom the child lives does not have the right to prevent the parent who lives separately from communicating with the child and participating in its upbringing, provided that such communication does not harm the normal development of the child.

If it is not possible to come to an amicable agreement, the law offers two ways to solve the issue of communication and participation in raising a child after a divorce:

  • through the body of guardianship and care;

  • through the court.

The father can submit an application to the local guardianship authority, in which he asks to determine the ways of participation in the child's education and communication with him. The guardianship body examines living conditions, attitude towards the child, employment, lifestyle and other characteristics, on the basis of which it makes a decision on establishing a visitation schedule with the child. The decision to set a meeting schedule is binding.

If the parent with whom the child lives does not comply with the decision of the guardianship authority regarding the visitation schedule, the other parent has the right to apply:

  • to the court for compensation of property and moral damage

  • to the guardianship and guardianship body for a conversation with the other parent

  • to the police to bring to administrative responsibility the person who does not comply with such a decision

  • to the court to remove obstacles in communication with the child.

The court is referred to if the parent with whom the child lives evades the implementation of the decision of the guardianship authority or in some other way obstructs the parent who lives separately in communicating with the child and in his upbringing. Such obstacles must be proven by proper evidence:

  • testimony of witnesses

  • appeals to the body of guardianship and guardianship

  • appeals to the police

  • correspondence or other communication between parents.

In accordance with the Law of Ukraine "On Amendments to the Tax Code of Ukraine and other legislative acts of Ukraine regarding the effect of norms for the period of martial law" provides for some relaxation in terms of credit obligations.

Loan relief is as follows:

  • During martial law, creditors are not responsible for late payment of loans.

  • The bank cannot charge any penalty or fine. Any penalties, fines, etc. charged by the bank for late payment of the loan, starting from February 24, 2022, the bank must write off.

  • In case of late payment of the loan, the interest rate does not increase.

  • Such changes are effective during the entire martial law and within 30 days after its end.

But banks can continue to charge interest for the use of loan funds, the loan will still have to be paid after the end of martial law. Therefore, if a person has the ability to repay the loan, it is best to pay with interest.

If you are unable to repay loans, it is better to apply to the bank for a loan holiday. Please note that the bank's adoption of such a decision is its right, not its obligation.
