Whether pensioners from the temporarily occupied territories can receive their payments

Lawyer Maksym Boyarchukov said this in an interview with Channel 24.

The specialist notes that by transferring a pension to a bank card, a person should receive the full amount that was provided for during the occupation.

You can transfer a pension to a card by means of the Pension Fund's electronic services portal.

To do this you should:

• authorise or register on the Pension Fund e-services portal;
• select the item "About pension provision";
• choose section "Modification of pension file" - Application on modification of the pension payment method;
• fill in all the required information;
• upload scanned documents: passport, ID code, application according to bank details;
• the application needs to be signed with one's own electronic signature (EDS can be done through the online banking facility).

It is noted that if a pensioner's bank card has expired, an electronic card can be issued and the above procedure can be carried out.
