In Ukraine, the military state of emergency and general mobilization have been extended until February 7, 2025, meaning that men liable for military service will continue to be called up to defend the country against Russian aggression, although some citizens still have the opportunity to apply for a deferment from mobilization.
Lawyer Tatyana Savchenko shared in an interview with UNIAN explained the conditions under which a deferment may be canceled.
She noted that deferments can be annulled in the following cases:
- expiration of the deferment period;
- termination of employment for the reserved worker;
- the child reaching the age of 18 when the deferment was granted due to the need to care for a minor child (for children with disabilities, the deferment is not canceled, but its basis is changed);
- if the person being cared for (wife, parents, or parents of the wife) has passed away, which the liable individual must personally report to the TCK;
- provision of false information to obtain a deferment;
- violation of the conditions under which the deferment was granted.
Lawyer Tatyana Savchenko also emphasized that even if a liable individual has the right to a deferment, if it is not properly arranged or extended, the man can be legally mobilized for service.
