The draft decree proposes to include residents of the Byelorussian, Kazakh, Moldavian and Ukrainian SSRs who previously held USSR citizenship, as well as stateless persons living in Latvia and Estonia, among those eligible to receive repatriate status under the program.
Recall that the concept of "repatriate" was introduced on November 22, 2023 by the decree of the President of Russia dated November 22, 2023 No. 872 "On Amendments to the State Program for Assistance to the Voluntary Resettlement of Compatriots Living Abroad to Russia" (more details in our news).
The draft also proposes to supplement the program with a provision on the possibility of submitting applications for participation in the state program in the form of an electronic document through State Services.
In addition, it is planned that when considering incoming applications for participation in the state program, the automated information system "Compatriots" will be used for interaction between the territorial bodies of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia and the authorized bodies of the regions. At the same time, it is also proposed to grant regions the right to provide financial and social support to participants in the state program within the framework of regional resettlement programs.
We are closely monitoring the consideration of the draft decree and will inform about all significant changes and events.
