Because of the war that Russia started, many Ukrainians were forced to leave for safer regions and become internally displaced persons.. All of them are entitled to a living allowance from the state. But in the future, not everyone will be able to receive it..

This was told by the Minister of Social Policy Oksana Zholnovich on the air of " She noted that compared to last year, the number of internally displaced persons has increased. And the funds pledged this year to pay such assistance may not be enough until the end of the year, because the number of people in need of support is not decreasing..
“We are thinking about the format, because there are people who receive such assistance all year round.. And there is an option - perhaps to help these people reintegrate, find a job, support them in order to bring them to economic independence.. Since this assistance is not high and at the same time it is significant for the budget, because many people receive it. It’s probably more logical to look at targeting, because today we pay everyone and we don’t check - or maybe a person is already working, or maybe he has already worked at all. Still, if you worked for a year, then you provided yourself with some cushion of relative stability, ”she said..
According to the minister, they want to provide these funds to the most vulnerable segments of the population and only displaced.
“It would be worth directing this money to new people who are moving, either to those who have a harder time, or to those with disabilities. I think we will think about targeting.
And communities of internally displaced persons understand that it makes no sense to pay all their lives - it’s bad to assign such a status to a person, because he must become a full-fledged member of society, live like everyone else, ”concluded Oksana Zholnovich.
Many migrants had to settle in shelters offered by the state or territorial communities - hostels, sanatoriums, camps, boarding houses. Recall whether internally displaced persons in this case have to pay utility bills.
