Grounds for postponement of mobilization in 2024

Postponement from mobilization is a topic that changes regularly. There is nothing surprising in this, given the dynamics of the current legislation. Back in April, with Law № 10449, parliamentarians began the process of major changes. Later, they were joined by government officials with Resolution № 560. But the transformation of the legislation does not stop there either, given the needs of wartime.

If you want to know whether you still have the right to postponement and how to properly protect and implement it, the lawyers of the law firm "Prikhodko & Partners" can help with this. We specialize in military law, carefully study new legal acts even at the draft stage, and know how to help clients really effectively. In the meantime, let's consider the issue of postponing mobilization in general.

Who has the right to postponement?

Therefore, as of today, the following categories of citizens continue to have this right:

• employees booked by state authorities, enterprises, institutions and organizations;
• persons recognized as disabled or temporarily unfit for military service due to their health status (the deferral period in such cases is 6-12 months);
• women and men who have 3 or more dependent children under 18;
• those who raise a child on their own (if the second parent has disappeared or died);
• persons who provide constant care for sick relatives (there must be a corresponding conclusion of the Ministry of Health and Welfare, which states that the person needs constant care);
• those who are dependent on an adult child with a disability of the I or II group, or a spouse (husband) with a disability of the I or II group;
• students, post-graduate students and doctoral students who are getting consecutive education, studying on a full-time or dual basis;
• teachers and researchers engaged in teaching or research activities.

The listed grounds help ensure social protection of citizens during mobilization, as their activities are aimed at the functioning of important spheres of the country's life.

Why should you contact professional lawyers in advance?

Regarding mobilization, you can see a lot of different news - including hearing about cases of illegal forced mobilization in the presence of a postponement. There are also rare cases of overreach of powers by representatives of the TCC and SP, when documents certifying the right of a conscript to deferment are not accepted. In such cases, the problem can be solved by contacting professional lawyers who specialize in military law. And it is even better to apply in advance in order to act in advance to prevent risks.

When you have the right to postponement, it is important not only to have a suitable reason, but also to be able to certify it properly, as a rule, by collecting and submitting a package of documents. So here we will be useful for you. The team of the Prikhodko & Partners law office provides the following services:

• Consultancy. We will answer your questions in as much detail as possible and guide you in the further course of action.
• Legal support. This service includes, among other things, physical escort to the TCC and SP, if you are wary of non-acceptance of documents or forceful mobilization.
