Benefits for paying utility bills for military pensioners
Advice from lawyers:
1. I am a military pensioner, a retired officer. As a participant in combat operations (Afghanistan), I receive a cash supplement to my pension. Combat veterans are entitled to benefits in paying utility costs. How to achieve the real effect of this benefit? Where and what documents should I apply? Nikolai Nikolaevich.
1.1. Hello. Benefits in Russia are of a declarative nature, that is, without contacting the competent authorities, the benefits do not apply. In your case, you need to contact the social protection department at your place of residence, the department that provides benefits to combatants. In general, the algorithm is approximately this: collect a package of documents (passport, certificate of ownership of residential premises, certificate of family composition), come to the social protection department, fill out an application, wait for a decision. Then the benefit begins to apply if the body makes a positive decision. Good luck.

Who is entitled to benefits for utility bills and how to get them
Group 3 - This group includes families with disabled children. There is a single rule in this group - the amount of benefits provided for housing and communal services to disabled people of group 3 cannot be lower than 50% when paying for utilities.
To pay for household services, taking into account benefits, such families or the disabled person himself will need to contact the institution that is responsible for collecting payments for housing and housing and communal services. The main document is a certificate confirming the fact of disability, which is issued based on the results of an examination conducted in a hospital or at home.
Benefits for pensioners living alone 2020 for paying for housing and communal services in the Nizhny Novgorod region
- single pensioners;
- disabled people living alone;
- minor orphans who own apartments;
- families that include only disabled people or pensioners and children under 16 years of age;
- large families who live in low-rise buildings owned by the city.
Land tax benefits for pensioners The legislation of the Russian Federation has assigned the establishment and collection of tax payments for the use of land to the regional level. The body that implements state policy in this area is the authorities of a particular region.

Benefits for paying utility bills in 2020-2020
- Heroes of the Soviet Union or Russia;

Well, if a serviceman dies, then his family has the right to a pension.

But in most cases, the benefit is several times larger than the standard pension. And this is a lot, even for a wealthy family.

State support for widows of retired military personnel: benefits for housing and communal services and medical services
What benefits are entitled to the widow of a military pensioner after his death? Wives, due to the nature of their husband’s work, are forced to move frequently. This affects their length of service required to qualify for a pension. It often happens that by the time a woman retires, she does not have enough years to qualify for a pension. In this situation, the state allows up to 5 years of the period without work to be counted as length of service.
The state allows widows of officers to combine 2 payments at the same time. For example, your civil pension and survivor's benefit. But a woman cannot remarry and must prove her need for these payments. Otherwise, she will be denied the right to combine payments.
What documents are needed to receive benefits for utility bills for the widow of a military pensioner?
In this paragraph, we will consider only options that provide for the retirement age of the widow of a serviceman. Upon reaching retirement age, the widow of a serviceman can apply for pension payments in accordance with her own length of service or switch to her spouse’s pension. In both cases, she can take advantage of the benefits provided by law.
If a widow lives in a private house, once every 10 years she can exercise the right to repair a residential building. Repairs in state-owned apartments (houses, cottages) are carried out in accordance with the housing and communal services schedule.
Benefits for Military Pensioners for Housing and Utilities Payments in the Nizhny Novgorod Region

Receipt of assistance is formalized at the social welfare department or at the subsidy payment center. Please note that some categories of pensioners are required to regularly confirm their right to receive government assistance. As a rule, confirmation is required every six months. It is also necessary to remember that debts to pay for housing and communal services will in any case become an obstacle to obtaining a subsidy. When submitting your application you will need the following documents:
- passport;
- documents for living space;
- documents confirming the right to receive benefits.
For certain categories of beneficiaries, partial compensation for telephone payments is possible. You can also receive compensation for expenses such as garbage removal or antenna fees. The conditions for providing assistance depend on the category to which the pensioner belongs. The total amount of compensation can be up to half of all utility bills.

Military registration and enlistment offices have corresponding instructions from the financial department of the Ministry of Defense. They say that the commissariats are not to blame for the massive non-payment of widow's pensions. A similar excuse “not to pay” is used in other law enforcement agencies.
