The right to military pension recalculation: Do you have this right?

In today's world, it is especially important to ensure decent conditions for veterans and war participants, in particular by ensuring adequate pension benefits. However, there are often situations when military pensioners have reasons to recalculate their pension, but they are not always aware of this right. This article offers advice on the right to recalculate a military pension, including an analysis of the relevant documents and a conclusion on the recalculation procedure.

Analysis of the situation

The first thing to consider is that pension recalculation is an important procedure to ensure fairness in benefits. Military pensioners may have different reasons for recalculating their pensions, such as changes in legislation, increases in inflation or incorrect calculations in the past. The review may be particularly relevant in cases where the pensioner feels that the size of their pension does not reflect their actual merit and circumstances.

Documents for recalculation

Before contacting the body responsible for pension payments, it is important to have all the necessary documents. This can include a military ID, passport, certificate of pension benefits and any other documentation that proves your right to a pension transfer. It should also be borne in mind that the amount of pensions may depend on the length of service, rank, length of service, special conditions of service and other factors.

Pension recalculation: procedure

The pension transfer procedure may differ depending on the country and legislation. In many cases, it includes submitting an application to the relevant authority along with all the necessary documentation. After receiving the application and documents from the pensioner, the body analyzes and recalculates the pension on the basis of current legislation and known facts about the pensioner's service.

The following grounds are required for the recalculation of previously assigned pensions to military personnel:

Availability of documents: These include documents contained in the pension file, as well as any additional documents submitted by the pensioner himself.

Increase in monetary support: The recalculation may become relevant in connection with the increase in monetary support for the relevant categories of servicemen, in accordance with the amounts, conditions, and order provided by the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine.

The recalculation procedure usually covers the past period, but does not exceed 12 months from the moment of submission of additional documents.

It is also important to note that for persons assigned new military (special) ranks while in the reserve or retired, previously assigned pensions are not recalculated taking into account these new ranks.

Each category of persons has its own right to pension recalculation. This includes:

Dismissed servicemen: Persons who have resigned from service (with the exception of cases of pension awarding in the event of loss of breadwinner to the wife (husband), subject to compliance with the requirements of part 5 of Article 30 of the Law, which is awarded regardless of dismissal from service). These can be persons from all ranks of military personnel, except for those who served in military service.

Citizens of other countries: These are military personnel from other countries who have permanent residence in Ukraine and pension provision is carried out in accordance with the legislation of their countries.

Conscripted servicemen and their families: These are persons who served in conscripted service, as well as their family members.

Other Persons Eligible for Pension: This includes various categories of persons such as officers, conscripts and members of their families.

The full list of categories of persons entitled to pension recalculation is provided in Articles 1-2 of the Law of Ukraine "On pension provision for persons discharged from military service and certain other persons".

There are several types of military pensions:

Long Service Pension: This type of pension is given to military personnel depending on their length of service. The longer they worked in the army, the higher the pension amount can be.

Disability Pension: This pension is awarded to military personnel who have sustained an injury or illness that prevents them from working full-time. The amount of the pension may depend on the degree of disability.

Survivor's Pension: This type of pension is awarded to families of military personnel who died or died in the line of duty. It aims to provide financial support to families in difficult times.

Conclusion

Every military pensioner is entitled to a fair pension commensurate with their merit and dedication. If you feel that your pension does not reflect your entitlements, you should consider a pension transfer. Consulting with a lawyer or pension professional can help you understand your rights and the transfer procedures that may apply in your particular case. Don't hesitate to ask for help and protect your pension rights.
