Child support from the government is granted in Ukraine when one of the parents:
- is listed in the Unified Register of Debtors due to non-payment of child support;
- is subject to criminal proceedings or is incarcerated;
- is undergoing involuntary treatment;
- has been declared legally incompetent;
- is on active military duty;
- when their place of residence is unknown.
However, assistance is not provided if the child is under guardianship or custody or is fully supported by the state.
