What are the benefits of military pensioners

It is no secret that over the past few decades, our country has been drawn into a number of military conflicts. At the moment, people who protect our country and people during wars and who stood guard in peacetime, as a moral and material compensation relies on a number of benefits and benefits.

Medical benefits for military pensioners

Free medical care is provided to officers and members of their families, in particular children with disabilities, regardless of their age, minors, spouses, dependents in the care of a pensioner. If children have crossed the eighteen-year mark, but they continue to study internally, the privilege remains until they are 23 years old.

Transport and other benefits for military pensioners

1. The state compensates a part of the cost of a trip to a sanatorium, health camps (including children's camps), dispensaries and rest homes. If a military pensioner himself wishes to leave for rest, he will have to pay a fourth of the cost of the tour. If one of the members of the family leaves (spouse, child), the state compensates for half the cost.

2. Once a year military pensioners return the cost of travel to the place of treatment or recovery and back, provided that the treatment is carried out on the recommendation of the military medical commission.

3. Children of military pensioners may be given a place in the kindergarten, general educational institution or summer children's camp at the request of their parents within a month from the date of the application.

Labor benefits for military pensioners

1. When searching for a job through the labor exchange, they have the right to priority employment.

2. A military pensioner has the right to retain a job with the threat of dismissal from work (for reduction), which he settled for the first time.

What other compensation is available for military pensioners? Benefits for admission to institutions of primary vocational education - applicants are accepted without entrance examinations. After training in secondary specialized military educational institutions or in the presence of basic general education military pensioners are enrolled in secondary educational institutions outside the competition.

The benefits of training or job placement, of course, are a pleasant "bonus", but not everyone will use them. While monetary compensation is the most in demand today. What monetary benefits are provided for military pensioners ?

Unfortunately, there are not as many of them as we would like.

Until 2012, citizens who retired by age and had 15 years of service in the military service could receive a benefit equal to 40% of the salary within 5 years. If a person has served more than 15 years, then for each additional year he was entitled to an increase of 3% of salary. Now this social benefit is canceled. Together with him, monetary compensation was canceled in the amount of 600 rubles for the pensioner himself and 300 rubles for his lawful spouse and minor children. Canceled and compensation for the cost of permits for children 6,5-15 years.

Instead, a newly registered pensioner may receive a salary corresponding to his military rank within a year after leaving the service. In addition, he can return the amount paid as income tax on individuals and land tax until 01. 2015.

If the service was conducted in areas with an unfavorable climate, for example, in the conditions of the Far North, this experience will be taken into account when receiving regional allowances.

Here, not all compensation and benefits to military pensioners are listed, to which they can count. And only some of the most popular. More details of grants and benefits are described in the relevant federal law "On the Status of Servicemen".
