The martial law in Ukraine was extended until May 9, and therefore the issue of mobilization and delay remains one of the most discussed. The legislation provides for a number of categories of non -conscription citizens and can be deferred.
According to the updated Law “On Mobilization Training and Mobilization”, conscripts can be deferred on various grounds. The most common cause is health. Persons with disabilities of any group are not subject to mobilization. The service may also be temporarily unusable by the results of the conclusion of the Military Medical Commission (VLK).
Delay is also provided for in family circumstances. It is provided to parents of three or more underage children, as well as persons who are the only guardians of people with disabilities of the first or second group. Men in whom the wife has a disability of the third group can also count on mobilization. Persons whose close relatives have died or disappeared during the ATO or martial law, subject to their participation in measures to strengthen national security, are also exempt from conscription.
Those who have a reservation at strategically important enterprises can be delay. It also applies to students if they study on a daily or dual form of study. Teachers and scientists are not mobilized if their rate is at least 0.75.
Separately, the legislation states that prisoners of war were also released from mobilization.
In order to get a deferral, you must contact the Territorial Center for Management and Social Support (TCC and JV) and submit appropriate documents, including a passport, a military ticket and a formal confirmation of the delay.
Some categories, such as large parents, students and persons with disabilities, can design a deferral through the Reserve+System. It is important to remember that it should be extended regularly, since it is automatically updated in the event of a disability or education.
Regarding the passage of the VLC, the situation depends on the existing decision of the medical commission. If it is, no additional examination is required. If the document is absent or outdated, the military is obliged to pass the VLK. The refusal is regarded as a violation of military accounting.
In the context of martial law, the issue of mobilization requires a clear understanding of legislation. It is important to know your rights, update the necessary documents in a timely manner and comply with the established military accounting rules.
