The method for calculating income for subsidy eligibility will change. The Pension Fund of Ukraine has issued a warning about these updates.

In Ukraine, the method for calculating the average monthly total income of a family, which is considered when assigning housing subsidies and other forms of state social assistance, is changing. Now, not only the personal income tax will be deducted from salaries, but also the military levy.

This was reported by the Pension Fund of Ukraine. The relevant changes were approved by the Cabinet of Ministers through its resolution No. 1467 on December 20, 2024.

"Following the enactment of the Cabinet of Ministers' resolution on December 24, 2024, when calculating the household income, which is used to determine eligibility for housing subsidies and benefits as well as their amounts, the salary will be considered after deducting not only the personal income tax but also the military levy," the PFU explained.

It is important to note that the subsidy amount is calculated as the difference between the cost of utility services and the required payment amount. To determine how much needs to be paid independently, one can refer to the average monthly income of the family.

Previously, "Telegraf" reported whether there would be payments for wood or coal subsidies in 2025. Not everyone can receive this type of assistance.
