To ensure that cash benefits can continue to be provided seamlessly, the benefit data for all persons who have received benefits from the Chemnitz Social Welfare Office in accordance with the AsylbLG by 31 May 2022 and meet the above-mentioned requirements will be transferred in close cooperation with the benefit providers.

For all persons who have not yet received a fictitious certificate or residence permit by 31 May 2022 or who only register in Chemnitz after 1 June 2022, the Social Welfare Office AsylbLG Ukraine, Bahnhofstraße 53, will remain responsible until a later change.
