What categories of citizens have lost the right to deferment from mobilization since June 1?
From June 1, 2024, new mobilization rules came into force in Ukraine, which changed the terms of deferment for some categories of citizens. Draft Law No. 10449, adopted on May 18, significantly affected the list of persons entitled to deferment from service in the Armed Forces of Ukraine. In this article, we will consider which categories of citizens have lost the right to deferment, as well as why it is important to seek professional legal help in a timely manner.
Who is no longer eligible for deferment from mobilization?
Before the adoption of draft law No. 10449, deferment from mobilization was available to a wide range of people, but since June 1 the situation has changed. Below is a list of categories of citizens who have lost the right to deferment:
Parents of many children with child support arrears: If previously, parents of many children had the right to a deferment, now if they have child support arrears, they will not be able to use this right.
Persons obtaining a second and third higher education: Students who are studying at a bachelor's, master's or other education lower than the current one have also lost the right to deferment.
Employees of enterprises, institutions and organizations of the Ministry of Defense: This category of citizens also no longer has the right to postpone mobilization.
Individuals with limited eligibility: The status of "limited eligibility" has been revoked, automatically disqualifying such individuals from deferment.
Young people aged 25 to 26: The new draft law lowered the conscription age from 27 to 25, so young people aged 25-26 are no longer eligible for deferment.
Who is eligible for deferment from mobilization in 2024?
Despite the change in legislation, some categories of citizens can still count on a postponement of mobilization.
Respite from mobilization is granted to certain categories of citizens, in particular:
According to the state of health:
To men who have passed the Military Medical Commission (MMC) and have been declared temporarily or completely unfit for service due to serious diseases or conditions, such as:
Severe deformations of the musculoskeletal system;
