War Victims' Welfare Grant for injured persons

Read aloud

Injured persons who are granted (or are likely to be granted) benefits under the Federal Pension Act or in corresponding application of this Act, e.g. under the Soldiers' Pension Act, the Civilian Service Act, the Prisoners' Relief Act, the Protection against Infection Act or the Act on Compensation for Victims of Violent Crimes or the Criminal Rehabilitation Act, may also receive assistance under the War Victims' Welfare Act.

The prerequisite is that the victims are not in a position to cover the need to be recognized from the other benefits under the aforementioned laws and other income and assets due to the injury. Whether and to what extent income is to be taken into account depends on different and individual income limits. However, the use of income and assets can be waived in certain cases.

In addition to personal assistance, benefits in kind, one-off and ongoing grants and loans are also considered. As a rule, debts are not covered.

War victims' welfare is part of social compensation law. It is referred to as such because it is the largest group of beneficiaries, but includes all welfare benefits under social compensation law. It is regulated in Sections 25 to 27j of the Federal Compensation Act and serves to supplement the other benefits of the Federal Compensation Act by providing special assistance in individual cases.

Therefore, a prerequisite for the granting of benefits is the recognition of an entitlement to benefits by the war victims' pension provider.

The benefits include benefits for participation in working life, sickness assistance, care assistance, assistance for the continuation of the household, assistance for the elderly, educational assistance, supplementary assistance for living expenses, recreational assistance, housing assistance and assistance in special circumstances.
