Previously, the list of people who would receive funds in the event of a military man's capture or disappearance was regulated by law. First, the funds had to be paid to the military man's wife or husband, and in their absence, to the children and their guardians. If there were none, then to the parents, brothers, and sisters in equal parts.
In order to determine the recipient of the funds, the military man must sign the appropriate document.
