On May 17, the Cabinet of Ministers has approved a resolution regulating the issues of registration of internally displaced persons, as well as expanding benefit programs for Ukrainians who do not have the status of internally displaced persons.

According to Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal, the Government has launched a number of programs with international humanitarian organizations to pay UAH 2,200 – 2,500 per month for IDPs from among the most vulnerable social categories. The corresponding program will now be enlarged.

"Our people from the deoccupied territories, from the settlements that are in the zone of active hostilities, as well as the citizens who are in the temporarily occupied territory will also be eligible for receiving benefits. Together with the United Nations, the Red Cross, UNICEF and the International Organization for Migration, we have launched projects that will help our citizens who have suffered the most from the war," said the Prime Minister of Ukraine.

Denys Shmyhal noted that in order to receive such payments, Ukrainians can apply on the information platform "eDopomoha" (eAssistance) - edopomoga.gov.ua, and with time it will be available to apply through the Diia.
