In times of war, the right to deferment from service is granted to several categories of citizens, but getting a deferment from mobilization is not so easy. Even with all the necessary documents, a personal visit to the TCC is mandatory. Lawyers warn about the possibility of deception by the TCC during the registration of the deferral.
One of the lawyers shared the story of his client, who was trying to get a deferment due to his wife's disability, which, according to the Mobilization Law, should have allowed him to do so.
The client submitted all the necessary documents to the TCC and filled out the application for deferment, which he received from the employees. However, the statement omitted important details, which, although not affecting the essence of the statement, made the process of proving the fairness of the postponement difficult.
Quite unexpectedly, the application was registered without any complications, which caused the lawyer to become suspicious. After that, a referral to the medical commission was issued.
We remind you that for those who have the right to deferment, service in the army is voluntary. However, TCC offered the man two options, one of which was extremely unacceptable.
The first option was to accept a summons for mobilization, which would oblige the man to come to the military commissariat the next day after the end of the postponement. Or refuse the postponement altogether.
This decision was motivated by the fact that a similar package of documents should be submitted a week before the end of the postponement, and the summons is their "insurance".
It is obvious that this was an attempt to force the man to accept the worst option, namely, to accept the mobilization summons.
The lawyer emphasizes that it is the signature on the mobilization order that confirms the person's willingness to accept service. Therefore, it is important to be careful not to sign anything that might cast doubt on your intentions.
If you find yourself in a similar situation, lawyers advise you to act carefully. It is worth refusing to accept a summons on mobilization, but confirm readiness to appear before the TCC on the condition of receiving a summons on updating credentials. This is a logical step that allows for the extension of the postponement and ensures the legality of actions before the TCC.
It is clear that trying to serve a subpoena instead of a letter of adjournment is an attempt at pressure, and it is important to understand your rights in such cases.
