Social pension for combatants. How to apply for a WBD grant. Where to apply and what to do to receive a pension

According to the law, various allowances for pensions are relied upon. Their value depends on the length of service, age and state of health. In order to receive additional payments, it is necessary to meet a number of criteria provided for by the Law of the Russian Federation No. 4468-I of February 12, 1993 and the Federal Law “On Veterans”.

Supplements to the basic pension for combat veterans begin to accrue from the moment the PFR makes a positive decision on the appointment of pensions, and their amount is regulated by Law No. 4468-I.

If a veteran dies in the line of duty, family members may receive additional payments. If they applied out of time, a recalculation is made, and deductions are transferred in any case without time limits.

To apply for an allowance, you must have with you documents confirming participation in battles or business trips to hot spots: they will be needed when applying to the Pension Fund for the first time.

The persons listed in Law No. 4468-I have the right to issue allowances: military personnel of the Army, employees of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the State Fire Service of the Ministry of Emergency Situations of the Russian Federation, institutions of the criminal correctional system, drug control services, the National Guard of the Russian Federation.

To receive military pensions and benefits, combat veterans must meet the following criteria:

  • have at least 20 years of service;
  • suitable for age - 45 years and at least 25 years of mixed service, if of them from 12.5 years were spent in the service.

Persons who served in areas where military operations were carried out and who have a BD veteran's certificate, according to the law, also receive an insurance pension. It is appointed under the following conditions:

  • Reaching the minimum age: men - 60 years, women - 55 years.
  • Insurance experience - from 8 years and more.
  • IPK - from 11.4 points for 2017. It is planned to gradually increase the coefficient to 30 points by 2025.

Important! Previously, the concept of "work experience" was used to calculate pensions, now it has been replaced by insurance. It is calculated not only on the number of years worked, but also on the amount of insurance premiums that employers make for their employees. Increasing the rate of insurance experience for retirement is also established by law, and by 2024 its minimum duration will be 15 years.

What else affects the receipt of the allowance and its amount:

  • State of health: if during the period of service an employee of a law enforcement agency was injured and was recognized as disabled, he is entitled to an appropriate pension and monthly supplements if he has reached the required age and his length of service meets the general requirements.
  • The presence of disabled dependents: an additional payment is transferred to the pension for the length of service for war veterans.
  • The territory of military operations in which the veteran participated.

How to get a veterans allowance

The procedure for applying for a pension to a participant in hostilities is quite simple. What is needed for this:

  • apply to the military registration and enlistment office for registration, obtain certificates confirming the status of the WBD;
  • visit the territorial office of the PFR and provide a list of documents approved by law.

If the pension has already been issued, but additional payments were not accrued for some reason, the procedure is somewhat simplified: it is enough to contact the Pension Fund with an application and documents confirming the status of the WBD.

In order for supplements to be transferred to military pensioners, 30 days before the date of entry into a well-deserved rest, the following documents must be brought to the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation:

  • application in the prescribed form. It can be taken in person at the Pension Fund or downloaded from the official website;
  • copies of the passport and photo size 3x4;
  • work book;
  • certificates and awards for participation in military operations;
  • veteran's certificate;
  • papers confirming the presence of a disability.

Employees of the Pension Fund are given 10 days to consider applications, after which they are required to notify the citizen in writing of the decision. If there are comments on the submitted documents, additional time is allotted for their elimination.


The procedure for calculating WBD benefits is carried out on a general basis, with each veteran being assigned personal bonuses depending on length of service, disability, dependents and specific military operations in which they participated.

What additional payments are due to WBD in case of disability:

  • If, after receiving an injury in the service, 1 disability group was assigned, 300% of the calculated amount is paid to the pension. With disability as a result of illness, the size is reduced to 250%.
  • With disability of the 2nd group due to injury - 200%, due to illness - 150%.
  • If group 3 was assigned due to injury, 150% is paid extra, due to illness - 100%.

Also, according to Presidential Decree No. 610, military pensioners whose pensions have not been revised since January 1, 2012 receive monthly payments in the amount of 4,900 rubles. for 2017.

What is the amount of seniority bonuses?

  • Veterans who are 80 years of age or older or have 1 disability group - 100% of the estimated pension.
  • Non-working citizens with dependent relatives recognized as disabled - 32% for one, 64% for two, 100% for three.

Citizens who are during the hostilities in the conflict zone and have received the status of veterans are entitled to a 32% increase in the amount of pensions. In 2017, this amount is 1,678 rubles.

There are separate categories of veterans who are entitled to additional payments depending on the territory of the country where they were sent at the direction of their leaders to carry out or ensure the conduct of military operations. For example, database participants in Ukraine, Afghanistan, the Chechen Republic. Officers, soldiers, business travelers who have certificates and served in the territories of these countries receive an increased pension and are entitled to a single tax-free cash remuneration.

If the amount of pension supplements was incorrectly determined or denied, veterans can file a claim with the PFR management for a written explanation of the reasons. If this has not had an effect, recalculation is made only on the basis of a court decision.

Important! In addition to additional payments to pensions, WBD is entitled to benefits in several areas:

  • Payment for housing maintenance services.
  • Transport tax.
  • Travel by public transport.
  • Provision of medical care.
  • Housing allowance.
  • Advantages when joining non-profit organizations and partnerships.

A specific list of benefits is established by the regions individually, but it cannot contradict the provisions of the Federal Law “On Veterans”.

Last updated March 2019

Due to ignorance of the laws, combat veterans miss the opportunity to enjoy certain benefits that can save their budget from unnecessary spending. Therefore, taking into account the latest news, we will consider in detail what benefits for war veterans in 2019 will be valid on the territory of the Russian Federation and whether they will differ from the benefits in 2018.

Combat Veteran Benefits 2019

Next year, as well as this year, benefits for combat veterans will be provided both at the federal and regional levels.

At the federal level, their provision is regulated by the following regulatory legal acts:

  1. Federal Law No. 5-FZ of January 12, 1995 (as amended on October 30, 2017) "On Veterans".
  2. Tax Code of the Russian Federation.
  3. Law of the Russian Federation of February 12, 1993 N 4468-I "On the provision of pensions for persons who have completed military service ...".

No changes were made to the procedure and nature of their provision in 2019, which means that the “preferential” set will remain unchanged. Only the EDV, which veterans can receive instead of the social package, will traditionally be subject to indexation by a total of 4%.

Despite the fact that the decisions of the Constitutional Court of the Russian Federation are not legal acts, today one of them - the Resolution of the Constitutional Court of the Russian Federation of April 13, 2016 N 11-P - still regulates the procedure for granting tax benefits. According to his position:

Monthly payments to war veterans should not be subject to personal income tax!

Tax legislation has not yet been brought into line with this decision of the Constitutional Court, however, its norms, recognized as unconstitutional, cannot be applied. It is expected that in 2018 the relevant changes will still be made to the Tax Code.

In the regions, additional preferences may be introduced at the level of local legislation. For more information on what regional benefits are currently in effect and whether they will be in effect next year, we will consider in a separate section below.

Retirement Benefits

They appear in:

  1. Increased (compared to a regular pension) amount. For each veteran, it is calculated individually and will depend on:
    • work experience;
    • Territories of warfare;
    • Presence of injuries, disability.

    On average in Russia in 2017, it is 22,000 - 30,000 rubles.

  2. A 32% supplement to the veteran's basic pension. In some regions, there are special multiplying factors, so the pension becomes even larger.
  3. Receipt of one-time cash assistance (LFA). Its size, while maintaining the NSU, is 1731.76 rubles in 2017, and 2780.74 rubles if the NSU is abandoned.

Housing Benefits

Combat veterans may qualify for improved housing by obtaining a housing certificate.

Previously, until 2005, housing was allocated from the housing stock of the municipality. Now this benefit is enshrined at the federal level, so the provision of this type of assistance is sponsored from the state budget, and WBDs receive cash certificates instead of housing in kind.

To qualify for the benefit, you must meet two criteria:

  1. Go through the procedure for obtaining a WBD certificate in order to be able to document your status.
  2. Correspond to the "need" parameter, that is:
    • Do not own real estate;
    • Own real estate that does not meet residential standards;
    • To live in a room under a social lease agreement that does not meet residential standards.

A step-by-step algorithm will help you figure out how to use the housing benefit.

STEP 1. We apply to the housing department of the local administration for registration with an application. How to make it - you can see here Or ask the administration staff.

Attached to the application are the following documents:

  • Original and copy of the WBD passport and all family members (for children - birth certificates);
  • Original and copy of WBD certificate;
  • EGNR certificate (extract from Rosreestr);
  • Extract from home book;
  • Documents for housing (if the property has real estate, but it does not meet the standards);
  • The conclusion of the interdepartmental commission / court decision, by which the housing is recognized as unfit for habitation (if in an emergency / dilapidated house)
  • Social lease agreement (if the applicant is a tenant);
  • Marriage or divorce certificate;
  • Copy of personal account;
  • Original and copy of SNILS of the applicant and family members.

After verification with copies, the original documents are returned.

STEP 2. We expect a response from the administration within 30 days from the date of application. If you have received a refusal to register, you can appeal it in court within 3 years from the date of receipt of the notification.

STEP 3. We follow the progress of the queue. Since the queue is all-Russian, the application is assigned two numbers: one for the all-Russian queue, the second for the regional one. Using them, you can monitor the speed of the queue - this data should be publicly available on the administration website.

STEP 4. After the receipt of funds from the state budget to the regional one and the turn of the applicant, the administration notifies him of this. Within six months from this moment, the combat veteran must use the certificate - find suitable housing and conclude a contract of sale.

The certificate is not issued in hand, but is provided to the seller of housing during the transaction. The certificate cannot be redeemed in any way.

STEP 5. After the conclusion of the transaction, it is necessary to register the ownership of the acquired property in Rosreestr. You can make a personal visit to the service, use the online registration service on the official website, or entrust this matter to a representative.

P=C*H, where:

  • R- the amount of the subsidy, expressed in rubles;
  • FROM- the size of the average market value of 1 square. m. of the total area of ​​housing (established for each region);
  • H- social norm of housing area (for WBD is 18 sq. m).

The social norm for the total area of ​​a dwelling is set at 33 sq. meters - for single citizens, 42 sq. meters - for a family of 2 people and 18 square meters. meters for each family member with a family of 3 people or more. Officers with the rank of colonel and above, as well as those with an academic degree, are entitled to 15 additional meters.

WBD is given the right to choose in purchasing housing: it can buy an apartment both in a new building and a "secondary", and even more - to purchase an object at the construction stage.

The certificate is issued for a certain amount. If it is not enough to pay for the housing you like, the war veteran can pay the difference from his own funds. In turn, if the cost of the apartment is less, the balance will be returned to the budget after payment.

Example #1. Savchenko L.L. is a WBD and lives in St. Petersburg with his wife. He went to the housing department to get registered. When submitting an application, he clarified with the employees in what amount he was entitled to a certificate. The average market value of a square meter of housing in St. Petersburg is 62,228 rubles, which means that the size of the certificate will be:

62 228 * 42 \u003d 2 613 573 (p)

Average market value of 1 sq m of total housing area for the 3rd quarter of 2017

Benefits for housing and communal services

At the federal level, communal benefits for war veterans are provided in the form of:

  • Compensation in the amount of 50% for the payment of rent (for both owners and tenants under a rental agreement);
  • Compensation in the amount of 50% for the payment of the capital repair fee (but not more than 50% of the fee).

Compensation is a return of funds already paid for a communal apartment, and this is its main difference from a subsidy, which is paid before bills need to be paid.

The amount of 50% of the monthly rent is transferred to the account specified by the veteran.

note that benefits for paying bills for electricity, water, gas for WBD have not been introduced by federal law! However, they can be additionally introduced by regional authorities, so their effect does not apply to all regions of the Russian Federation.

tax incentives

There are a number of tax incentives for WBD. Let's consider each of them in detail.

Personal income tax

According to paragraph 1 of paragraph 2 of Art. 218 of the Tax Code, when calculating the tax on the income of a combat veteran, a tax deduction of 500 r is applied for each tax period.

You can take advantage of this benefit in 2 ways:

  1. Directly at work, then the tax will be withheld monthly in a smaller amount;
  2. At the tax office at the end of the year, then you will be refunded the overpaid money for the whole year.

This tax deduction applies to all types of income:

  • Salary;
  • Income from the sale of property (apartment, car);
  • Income from the rental of property;
  • Income from contracts, etc.

Example #2. Zubchenko I.G. is not a combat veteran. Despite the fact that he meets the criteria for this category, he did not properly issue a WBD certificate. His salary is 40,000 rubles. The income tax rate is 13%. Every month he pays a tax in the amount of 40,000 X 13% = 5,200 rubles.

If he receives this certificate, then after contacting the tax office with the necessary documents and submitting a corresponding application to the employer, the accounting department will apply a tax deduction in the amount of 500 r when calculating the tax:

(40,000 - 500) * 13% \u003d 5135 (p).

Savings per month will be 65 rubles, and per year - 780 rubles.

To qualify for this tax deduction, you must:

Where do you want to receive? Action algorithm Required documents
By place of work
  • Contact the tax authorities with an application for a tax deduction and wait for a notification from them.
  • When you receive a notice, write an application to the employer. Give it to him along with the notice and other documents or to the accounting department (if any).
  • Receive monthly salary including tax deduction.
  • Statement
  • Notification from the tax
  • Copy of WBD certificate
  • Copy of the passport
  • Copy of TIN
At the tax office
  • At the end of the year, file a 3-NDFL tax return, write an application for a tax refund and provide copies of documents confirming copies of your WBD status.
  • Expect a refund to the account you specified within 4 months.
  • Help in the form 3-NDFL.
  • Certificate from the accounting department at the place of work on the amounts of accrued and withheld taxes for the corresponding year in the form 2-NDFL.
  • Statement
  • Passport copies
  • Copies of TIN
  • Copies of WBD certificate

Combat veterans who have received disability groups 1,2,3 while performing combat missions, enjoy an increased tax deduction in the amount of 3000 rubles.

Please note that social benefits paid to this category of persons are not subject to personal income tax. This position was taken by the Constitutional Court of the Russian Federation in its Resolution of April 13, 2016 N 11-P.

Transport tax

At the federal level, there are no transport tax benefits for war veterans. However, a regional law may introduce them - the benefits are valid within the veteran's region of residence (the place of registration of the vehicle does not matter).

The table will help you understand in which regions and in what amounts transport tax benefits for WBD are provided.

Region The size The mode of transport covered by the exemption
Moscow 100% Ground vehicle (except snowmobiles and snowmobiles) up to 200 hp
Moscow region 50% - WBD;
100% - WWII veterans.		 Passenger car (up to 150 hp) or motorcycle (up to 50 hp)

Property tax

tax code completely exempt from paying property tax combat veterans, namely:

  1. Who served more than 20 years and were fired:
    • Upon reaching the age limit;
    • For health;
    • In connection with organizational and staff activities.
  2. Dismissed from military service or called up for military training, internationalist soldiers who performed duty in countries where hostilities were fought.

The benefit can be used for:

  • Apartments, rooms in it or a communal apartment;
  • Houses;
  • Commercial premises used in professional creative activities;
  • Buildings (no more than 50 sq.
  • garage.

Only one property is not taxed. If a veteran has several of them, he has the right to choose for himself which of them to use the tax benefit.

Land tax

WBDs are not fully exempted from paying land tax. They can take advantage of the $10,000 tax deduction. It is by this amount that the cadastral value of the site is reduced before the calculation of the tax amount begins.

Example #3. Kupriyanova V.I. owns a plot in Moscow, the cadastral value of which is 47,000 rubles. The land tax rate is 0.3%. The amount of tax that she will have to pay:

(47,000 - 10,000) * 0.3% \u003d 111 (p)

You can use the exemption only if you pay tax for 1 plot within the same region. But at the same time, if there are several sites, and they are located in different regions, you can use the exemption for one site for each region.

Example #4. Kupriyanova V.I. owns one land plot in Moscow, the second - in St. Petersburg. The cost of one of them is 120,500 rubles, the second - 136,000 rubles. Calculate the tax taking into account the deduction:

(120,500 + 136,000 - 10,000) * 0.3% = 739.5 (p)

If the cadastral value of the land is less than 10,000 rubles, the land tax is not levied from the WBD.

Relief on payment of state duty

When applying for the protection of their rights, enshrined in the Federal Law "On Veterans", to a justice of the peace or to a civil court, a combat veteran is exempt from paying state duty.

Exceptions are claims with a declared price of more than 1 million rubles. Then the state duty is paid, but in a reduced amount. The amount is calculated according to the following formula: 13,200 rubles plus 0.5 percent of the amount exceeding 1,000,000 rubles, minus the amount of the state duty payable if the claim value is 1,000,000 rubles.

Other federal benefits

In addition to the benefits listed above, combat veterans are entitled to:

  • Free prosthetics (the money is returned later in the form of compensation);

Benefits for combatants are provided only if they have received a veteran's certificate in accordance with the procedure approved by the order of the Russian Ministry of Defense dated August 11, 2012 No. 2288. Then they will enjoy the benefits of a combat veteran. A separate category of benefits for "participants" is not provided by federal law.

Combat veterans' pension

According to Article 7 of the Law of the Russian Federation No. 4468-I of February 12, 1993, a citizen may, at his own discretion, choose the type of pension provision.

The status of the WBD is given to military personnel whose well-deserved rest is possible with length of service. The procedure for assigning a pension is enshrined in Article 13 of the above Federal Law.

A serviceman can retire to a well-deserved rest in one of the following cases:

  • with more than twenty years of service;
  • with a service life in power structures of 12 and a half years, if the total length of service was 25 years.

Retirement of combat veterans in the latter case is permissible upon reaching the age of 45 years.

At the same time, military personnel can apply for disability pension payments that occurred due to injury or the development of a disease during service.

At the same time, citizens can also receive a pension upon reaching the appropriate age. At the moment, women go on a well-deserved rest at the age of 55, and men - after 60 years. In the near future, the age bar may be raised in connection with the planned pension reform.

There are many factors that influence the payout amount:

  • IPC value;
  • number of years of insurance experience;
  • the average wage received by a citizen;
  • availability of various benefits and allowances.

Only payments received by non-working pensioners are subject to indexation. The recalculation of the pension, taking into account rising prices and inflation, is possible after the dismissal and notification of the FIU about the termination of the employment contract.

Will the reform affect this category of people?


As mentioned above, obtaining the status of the WBD is available to military personnel and persons performing their duties in a certain territory of military operations.

At the same time, the retirement age for military personnel may be raised in connection with the planned pension reform.

The bill is currently under consideration in the State Duma. The changes will affect the length of service received by the military for the successful registration of pensions, as well as the age for entering a well-deserved retirement in old age.

In case of successful approval of the draft law, the following changes are expected, which may affect military personnel and other persons who have the status of a VBD and plan to retire:

  • increase in the preferential length of service for years of service for early retirement for a well-deserved rest for 5 years inclusive;
  • an increase in the age limit for receiving an old-age pension for the female half of the population by eight years, and for the male half by at least 5 years.

Due to the postponement of the possibility of retirement, citizens will be forced to continue working. Veterans in most cases are not in good health, so the reform can cause a lot of difficulties for them.

At the same time, the bill currently in the State Duma does not plan to affect the benefits available to citizens. Persons who have already retired are guaranteed timely indexation of the payments received and the corresponding allowances. Working pensioners will also be able to count on a slight change in pension provision.

It should be noted that the planned pension reform will inevitably lead to an increase in unemployment in the country, an increase in prices for various categories of goods, a decrease in consumer demand and a deterioration in the economic situation in Russia as a whole.

In turn, this will also have a negative impact on the financial situation of persons with the status of VBD.

Old-age pension payments are only a small part of the measures of state support existing in the Russian Federation, among them a special place is occupied by social pensions for combatants. From this article, the reader will be able to find out who is entitled to these payments, how to receive and calculate them on their own.

Who is meant by the term "combat veteran"

The concept of "combat veteran" includes various categories of military personnel. According to Art. 3 of Federal Law No. 5, these include:

  • Leadership and rank and file of various military structures.
  • Former military personnel who took part in mine clearance and combat minesweeping in the post-war years.
  • Veterans of Afghanistan, Chechnya, Syria.
  • Other categories of persons participating in hostilities on the territory of the country and abroad.

Military veterans are entitled to certain types of payments. They differ from civilians not only in size, but also in the procedure and terms of provision.

The provision of benefits and payments to military veterans is regulated on the basis of Federal Law No. 5 “On Veterans”, as well as various federal and regional regulations. The payment of a military pension is regulated by the Federal Law under the number 4468-I, insurance - by the Federal Law No. 400.

The Tax and Housing Codes also contain a list of benefits provided to military veterans. Taken together, the prescribed pensions and discounts will provide the former soldier with a good financial situation.
A civilian who, under the circumstances, became a direct participant in hostilities can also be recognized as a military veteran. In this case, it is possible to issue a civil pension with bonuses for the status received.

Retirement benefits for military veterans

Registration and payment of pensions to veterans is carried out by the pension service of the department in which the person served. If a civilian was recognized as a veteran, the PFR will pay him a pension.
A military veteran has the right to apply for a seniority pension.

The conditions for its provision are as follows:

  1. Minimum military experience. In 2018, it is 20 years old. The experience may be intermittent. Mandatory service is included in it.
  2. Reaching the retirement age. The military retires at the age of 45. In this case, the total work experience should be 25 years, of which 12.5 years is military service.

The size of the pension of combatants depends on the level of monetary allowance. The procedure for calculating payments and registration is quite specific. We'll talk about them a little later.
In addition to a military pension, a citizen has the right to apply for insurance. This right is granted in the event that the military, after dismissal from service, got a civilian job.

In this case, pension payments are provided on general terms:

  • Reaching retirement age. For a woman, it is 55 years, for men - 60 years.
  • The presence of a minimum work experience of at least 9 years.
  • Accumulation of a sufficient number of pension points - at least 13.8.

If a citizen is already receiving a military pension, while wishing to arrange insurance payments, a fixed premium will not be taken into account when calculating them. In this case, the amount of the pension depends only on the number of points and their monetary equivalent. In 2018, it is 81.49 rubles. However, such a calculation is individual. So, do not forget that a simple citizen who is entitled to insurance payments can be recognized as a veteran. In the process of their calculations, the surcharge will also be taken into account.

What is the amount of pension this year for war veterans

The average pension for combat veterans in 2019 is 16,000 rubles. Payments were indexed taking into account the level of inflation following the results of the previous year. The increase was 3.7%.
Since the level of monetary allowance is of great importance in the calculation of military pensions, the military is interested in increasing it. However, this has not happened for several years. Payments to war veterans are increasing simultaneously with other types of pensions and social benefits, i.е. recalculated taking into account inflation, which amounted to 3.2%.
The current government promises to increase the allowance by 4% in the near future. At the same time, when the increase will be carried out is unknown.

Supplement to departmental pension

According to the current legislation, the departmental pension of military veterans is subject to an increase of 32%. In this case, the registration of increased civil payments is implied. This is relevant for individuals with mixed work experience, the minimum amount of which is 25 years.
The amount of payments will depend on the minimum amount of the social pension, taking into account the allowance of thirty-two percent. In addition, funds are subject to mandatory indexation, carried out once a year. If a veteran is entitled to several allowances at the same time, he must choose the most advantageous of them. Thus, it is impossible to simultaneously assign a pension for years of service and disability.

Retirement payments to veterans of Afghanistan

Participants in military operations in Afghanistan have the right to apply for a military pension, while one length of service is equivalent to three years. In addition to the basic payment, a supplement of 32% of the minimum social pension will be provided as a UST.
Afghan veterans can receive additional payments in cash or in kind. The size of the first will be 3696.40 rubles. If the recipient refuses the money, he will be provided with medicines for this amount, paid for treatment in a sanatorium, medical institutions.
Disabled people occupy a special place among veterans of Afghanistan.

Pension payments for them are subject to increase:

  1. For disabled people of the 1st group - three times.
  2. For disabled people of the 2nd group - twice.

If, after retirement, an Afghan veteran decides to continue working in a civilian job, having reached retirement age, he will be able to apply for insurance payments. Their average value across the country is 9 thousand rubles, the total amount of pensions of former Afghans is 20 thousand rubles.

Pension payments to veterans of Chechnya

Servicemen participating in hostilities on the territory of Chechnya are also entitled to receive military pensions and UDV.

Upon receipt of the status of a disabled person, payments increase by:

  • 3138 rubles for 1 disability group.
  • 2241 rubles for the 2nd disability group.
  • 1794 rubles for the 3rd disability group.

EDV for veterans, in this case, is 2781 rubles. In addition, it is planned to receive a social package in the amount of 1053 rubles. It includes payment for medicines, travel and spa treatment. The total amount of pension payments will depend not only on the required allowances, but also on the length of service and the amount of military allowance.

Pension payments to Syrian veterans

Syrian veterans are entitled to receive:

  1. Social and insurance payments.
  2. Disability allowance.
  3. Monthly EDV.
  4. Discounts on utility bills.
  5. Priority and free care in medical institutions.
  6. tax incentives.

The supplement to the social pension of combatants in Syria is:

  • 3088 rub. - Persons with a disability status.
  • 1699 rub. - persons seconded from service due to the performance of a combat mission.
  • 927 rub. - persons performing auxiliary functions, but not participating in hostilities.

The average pension for Syrian veterans is 20,000 rubles in Russia. In Moscow, this figure is 30 thousand rubles.

The subtleties of calculating the pension of a combat veteran

The pension of military veterans is calculated taking into account individual factors:

  1. Seniority payments are provided in the amount of half of the monetary allowance with a surcharge of three percent for each year of processing.
  2. Payments for a mixed type, which implies a total length of service of 25 years, are calculated in the amount of half of the monetary allowance and a one percent surcharge for each year of processing.

Do not forget about the required allowances, which were discussed in the previous sections of our article. These include additional payments for the disabled and monthly allowances.
If a civilian who took a direct part in hostilities or performed an auxiliary function was recognized as a veteran, payments will be calculated taking into account:

  • Fixed amount.
  • Retirement points.
  • increasing factor.
  • The cash equivalent of one point.

Also, persons can count on the provision of a UDV, the amount of which is about three thousand rubles. It has already been said above that these benefits are provided in kind or in cash. The choice depends on the wishes of the recipient. UDV, like other payments, is subject to annual indexation. In 2019, the increase was 3.2%.

Registration of a pension for a combatant

A combat veteran can apply for a pension at the commissariat of the organization in which he served. If, in addition to military payments, a citizen wants to receive civilian payments, he will need to contact the Pension Fund.
