If the house is in occupation: Ukrainians were told whether to count on compensation due to the loss of housing

The Verkhovna Rada identified the issue of compensation to Ukrainians whose housing was destroyed during the war and remained under the occupation of the enemy. The Ukrainians whose houses were destroyed during a full -scale invasion of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation and remained on the territories temporarily occupied by the enemy will also issue compensation.

At the same time, citizens will need to be provided with appropriate photos or videos, reported in an interview with Radio Svoboda and the head of the party "Servant of the People" Elena Shuliak. According to her, it is possible to prove that housing was destroyed during the war in different ways. "There are various modern tools - both photography, and cameraing, various works with satellite data.

We have communicated with experts, we do not see any problem there to fix such destruction," - said Elena Shuliak. She explained that problems may arise if people have no home documents, but this issue can be resolved. If people have bought a house after 2013 there should be no problems, since since then all the property data is online.

It will be possible to obtain copies of documents with the help of a special commission, which will submit requests for different departments, registers, local councils on information about ownership of housing. But if the relevant information is not revealed, you will have to go to court and bring their ownership. The adopted Verkhovna Rada No.

7198 states that compensation for damaged or destroyed housing will be paid to the citizens of Ukraine, namely: the procedure itself should be developed by the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine by May 20, 2023. At the end of March, the lawyers, responded by focus, emphasized that the basic responsibilities in the process of providing compensation for destroyed housing are entrusted to local self -government bodies.

It is there that special newly created commissions will decide whether or not to compensate for. It is still unknown how long it can take place from the moment of submission of compensation, since the term of compensation is not provided by law. "Compensation for damaged/destroyed real estate objects is provided within the limits of budget allocations.

The speed of compensation will depend on many factors, the filling of the state budget, the availability of approved local compensation programs, the chosen method of compensation, logically assuming that in those regions where more regions Property loss, compensation process will last longer, " - said the lawyer of JSC" Leshchenko, Doroshenko and partners "Irina Smityukh.

We will remind, in February this year the Cabinet of Ministers of the Netherlands approved the decision to establish in the Hague of the organization Schaderegister - the international register of losses caused by the Russian Federation during the war against Ukraine. Thus, all the extent of losses will be documented for the further requirement of reparations from the Russian Federation.
