The Government has ensured the payment of one-off assistance to those who submitted applications at the end of 2025 and have not yet received the funds. This was announced by Prime Minister of Ukraine Yulia Svyrydenko.

“We are talking about payments to 50,721 recipients, who will be funded in the near future. The delay in payments was due to the end of the budget year and the closure of accounts. The total requirement amounts to nearly UAH 330 million, and the funds for this programme are provided in full,” noted the Head of Government.

In total, 410,000 Ukrainians will receive the UAH 6,500 payments. As of today, under this programme, payments have been received by 374,000 people, totalling UAH 2.43 billion. These payments are intended to assist the most vulnerable categories: children under guardianship, children and persons with disabilities, children from low-income families, internally displaced persons, and pensioners living alone.
