If they are ben mehagrim, then they can defer their national service as long as they are living abroad. It is important to establish the status of ben mehagrim, otherwise, if this child who has grown up abroad tries to come to Israel, they will be considered absent without leave and can face a trial or time in prison.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n There are a few cases where ben mehagrim can be exempt from military service. These include Israeli citizens who are living abroad and return to Israel after the age of 22 or citizens who have at least one child (regardless of gender).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n If a ben mehagrim is not required to serve in the military but wishes to do so, they may volunteer for military service so long as they are under the age of 27.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n We provide several other articles that may be of interest to you on the topic of ben mehagrim.
