Order annual indexation social payments and benefits have been resumed in Russia since February.

The increase in the cost of living index for the previous year is taken as the increase coefficient.

Let's consider what changes in the procedure for paying child subsidies are envisaged for 2019.

Types of state assistance for children

To solve pressing problems of raising children, a family can apply for one-time and regular funding.

The support is aimed both at minor citizens and at assistance in performing the functions of motherhood.

In 2019, children are assigned the following subsidies:

1. . The basis for the appointment is temporary disability to prepare for childbirth and postpartum recovery.
2. Additional in the residential complex.
3. . Rely on the fact of the birth of a child to all categories of women in labor. The amount of assistance is directly dependent on the fact that the applicant is employed and the amount of income. The support is financed by the Social Insurance Fund. The payer is most often the employer. For women in labor who are not provided with official services, the payment operator is the social security authorities.
4. Childcare and child care benefits. Part of the assistance is allocated through the federal government: as a rule, these measures are available to absolutely all women, regardless of social status and actual employment. Another category of payments goes through the channels of the regional executive power (from local budget levels).
5. Payments. Parents classified as citizens also fall into this category. In practice, a low-income family is often also included in the category of citizens with many children. The procedure for assigning and making payments has been almost completely transferred to the competence of regional authorities.

Increase in basic payments

Families receiving government assistance, have already noticed changes in the amount of their benefits. Correlation held in February added 4.30% to subsidies.

But there are also nuances: there are payments depending on the woman’s income. They will increase only if the applicant’s salary is indexed, or if the federal salary changes.

Maternity benefit

In this case, the February indexation does not apply to the destination amount. Those insured under the state system can apply for payments. social insurance future mothers. Simply put, either the woman’s employer or she herself must regularly pay to the Social Insurance Fund insurance premiums .

(PBR) includes the prenatal and postnatal period.

His duration depends on the number of children born and the nature of the birth process:

• standard singleton pregnancy and childbirth - 140 days, of which 70 are the prenatal stage and the same amount - the postpartum stage;
• if there were complications during childbirth - 156 days: 70 days are allocated for prenatal leave and 86 days for the recovery stage;
• in case of multiple pregnancy it is recommended maternity leave 194 days: 84 of them for the prenatal stage, 110 for recovery after childbirth.

Benefit amount depends on the average earnings of a pregnant woman over the last two years of work (aka insurance) experience. Only the full annual period is taken into account. Thus, for workers taking maternity leave in 2019, the periods 2018 and 2017 are used to determine the amount. Salaries, bonuses, vacation pay, etc. are taken into account.

For employed people, the benefit is determined by dividing 100% of the amount of average earnings by the number of days in the base and then multiplying by the days of PBR.

When calculating benefits, PBRs are set special conditions and restrictions.

For applicants whose working life is less than 6 months or whose average earnings are small, a calculation standard has been established at the federal level of the minimum wage (11,280 rubles). In this regard, maternity benefits will be minimal.

The maximum is calculated based on the maximum base for calculating social insurance contributions. Women with high incomes should not delude themselves. It will not be possible to receive an astronomical sum due to the limitation of the insurance base for the employer:

• in 2016 - 718,000 rubles;
• in 2017 - 755,000 rubles;
• in 2018 - 815,000 rubles;
• in 2019 - 865,000 rubles.

Will be:

• For a standard of 140 days: minimum - 51,918.90 rubles. Maximum - 301,095.89 rubles.
• In case of multiple pregnancy for 156 days: Minimum - 57,852.49 rubles. Maximum - RUB 335,506.85.
• For complicated childbirth at 194 days: Minimum - 417,232.88 rubles. Maximum - RUB 417,232.88.

To accrue and receive maternity payments pregnant contacts his place of work with a sick leave certificate issued at the antenatal clinic. PBR allowance – lump sum payment, which is credited to the account in a single tranche in the next salary.

The only applicant for PBR is the pregnant woman herself, since the payment is intended for the expectant mother in order to prepare for the birth process and recovery after it.

PBR for unemployed women

Meager support for women who do not have a permanent job for a long period is provided by regional employment centers.

But only when pregnant women register on. In this case, the payment to the pregnant woman is calculated according to minimum rate at 655.49 rubles.

Payment for visiting an antenatal clinic in early pregnancy

This benefit, although small, is always appropriate. Moreover, the woman herself is interested in managing pregnancy from the very beginning. In such cases, the risks of pregnancy pathogenesis and complications during childbirth are minimized. well and amount of 655.49 rubles will be a nice bonus.

The payment is awarded to the pregnant woman by the employer along with maternity benefits after providing the appropriate certificate from the antenatal clinic.

One-time payment upon birth of a child

Diapers and undershirts, other little things pleasant for the baby will require considerable expenses, so the allowance aimed at initial material support families. One of the parents has the right to apply for payment at their place of work. You can use this right within six months after the birth of the child. Unemployed citizens receive a bonus through the regional division of social security authorities.

After the February increase benefit amount is 17,479.73 rubles.

State support for children under 1.5 years old

The state has provided monthly financial assistance for those families who decide to focus on raising a newborn in the next 1.5 years.

The mother or another relative chosen by the family for this important role can arrange care for the baby outside of work. In standard situations, funding for child care up to one and a half years is provided based on 40% of average earnings for the 2 years preceding the maternity leave.

When applying for benefits in 2019, it is taken into account for calculation insurance base period 2017-2018 According to this parameter, the law provides maximum benefit limit. It is equal 26,152.33 rub.

Also, from February 1, benefits were indexed based on minimum fixed amounts:

• to non-working parents through subdivisions of SZN departments;
• at low level wages when assigning benefits at the place of work in the form of social insurance with reimbursement of corresponding expenses to the employer in the Social Insurance Fund.

In the second case, the monthly payment for the first child is determined by the minimum wage for the first child, and about 15,000 for the second and subsequent children.

In any situation, the law prohibits reducing child care benefits for children up to one and a half years of age beyond the established limit, which increased from February 1, 2019 by a factor of 1.043 and amounted to:

• for one child 4512 rubles;
• for the second and subsequent children - 6554.89 rubles.

Other payments

Vacation up to 3 years. If necessary, the family can decide to take parental leave until the child turns 3 years old.

But the monthly federal benefit cannot even be called symbolic: 50 rubles from the state, and without February indexation, support family budget they won't. The advantage of formalizing the child's upbringing is to maintain a job for a caring relative.

It is noteworthy that the Committee on Family and Childhood Issues of the State Duma of the Russian Federation has submitted for consideration the issue of extending paid parental leave until the child reaches 3 years of age. It is proposed to establish the procedure for assigning benefits for this period similarly to the system for calculating vacations up to 1.5 years.

Child benefit up to 16-18 years of age. Such support is entirely the responsibility of the regional authorities of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation.

Target group support:

• families with lower incomes in the region;
• large groups of society;
• minors special social groups(disabled people, orphans).

The procedure for assigning payments and indexation issues are completely determined by the laws of the subject. Therefore, it is worth checking out the circle of support from executive authorities, as well as SZN departments.

Large families

Social benefits for parents with many children are divided into federal and regional support.

Regions with low level fertility and negative demographic indicators are required to develop their own programs to support family and childhood, including for citizens deciding to have a third and subsequent children.

Main part government funding citizens with many children occurs at the local level, taking into account specific situation and level of income. Basis - Government Order No. 2090 dated 05.10.16.

Since January, Moscow has been increasing the size of the city standard for non-working pensioners, as well as a number of social benefits. the site tells how much social support will increase in the capital and who will receive increased payments.

Sergei Sobyanin called social support for Muscovites a priority for the coming years. Pensions, benefits, assistance to large and low-income families - these are just a few of the areas on which a significant portion of the city’s money will be spent from January 1, 2018. First of all, the increase will affect those who need social support more than others.

The amounts of increased payments were determined taking into account the opinions of residents of the capital. Sergei Sobyanin discussed what measures need to be taken to improve the lives of Muscovites during meetings with pensioners, veterans, large families, single mothers and parents of disabled children. Proposals were made by the Moscow City Council of Veterans, representatives of large families and others public organizations. The Moscow Mayor included in the draft budget exactly the proposals that were made at these meetings.

Help for pensioners and veterans

In Moscow, the minimum pension amount will increase. The mayor of Moscow supported the proposal of the veterans council to immediately increase it by three thousand rubles. The city social standard will be 17,500 rubles. Already at the end of December, almost 1.4 million city residents will receive an increase in their pensions.

“If you take the last seven years, we started with 10 thousand rubles. Now there are already 17.5 thousand. That is, we annually increase the size of this minimum pension by almost a thousand rubles. And in the future we will try to increase it as much as possible,” said Sergei Sobyanin.

Married couples will also receive one-time cash payments on the occasion of their anniversaries. Those who celebrated the 50th anniversary of marriage will receive 20 thousand rubles (in 2017, the payment was 10 thousand rubles), the 55th anniversary and 60th anniversary - 25 thousand (in 2017 - 11 thousand and 12 thousand rubles, respectively), the 65th anniversary and 70th anniversary - 30 thousand (in 2017 - 13 thousand and 15 thousand rubles, respectively).

Monthly compensation to pensioners will double in exchange for free travel on public transport, as well as on commuter trains.

Support for low-income and large families

The amount of child benefits for low-income families will increase from three to 6.25 times. The increase in these payments will affect almost 300 thousand young Muscovites. Almost five times - the monthly child benefit will increase for low-income families with children under three years old - up to 10 thousand rubles (in 2017 - two thousand rubles).

Payments to low-income mothers and single fathers, military personnel undergoing military service upon conscription, for a child under three years of age will be increased to 15 thousand rubles, and the amount of benefits for children over three years of age and benefits large families and families raising disabled children will receive twice as much. Monthly assistance for caring for a disabled child under the age of 18 or a disabled child under the age of 23 will amount to 12 thousand rubles (in 2017 - six thousand rubles). The same amount will be paid for a child under the age of 18 living in a family in which both or the only parent do not work and are disabled people of group I or II.

For large families with five or more children, the city will also increase monthly payments for the purchase of children's clothing, payment of housing, utilities, telephone communication. Parents will also receive increased payments International Day family and Knowledge Day.

In the Moscow budget, the growth of social expenditures is twice as fast as the growth of other items. It is planned to allocate 430 billion rubles for social needs in 2018. Part of these funds will go to increase salaries for social workers.

From 2011 to 2017 budget expenses on social sphere Moscow has already been almost doubled in size. At the same time, the targeting of benefits was strengthened. For example, expenses on subsidies and benefits for housing and communal services increased threefold, nine times on providing food and clothing assistance to the poor, and five times on providing disabled people with technical means of rehabilitation.

From January 1, 2017, the minimum wage remained at 7,500 rubles. However, despite this, from January 1 there have been changes in the calculation of some “children’s” benefits. How to calculate “children’s” benefits from January 1, 2017? What is the amount of benefits from January 1, 2017? Has the amount of child care benefit changed? How much will the Social Insurance Fund reimburse for “children’s” benefits from January 1? You will find answers to these and other questions related to children's benefits, as well as a table with new sizes in this article.

Types of "children's" benefits

“Children’s” benefits usually include payments related to the birth of children. The list of “children’s” benefits is given in Federal law dated May 19, 1995 No. 81-FZ “On state benefits for citizens with children” Let’s consider how the amounts of the most frequently paid “children’s” benefits will change from January 1, 2017, namely:

• benefits for registration in early dates pregnancy;
• lump sum benefit for the birth of a child;
• monthly child care allowance up to 1.5 years;
• maternity benefits.

These benefits are paid by the employer. However, we note that in certain regions of the Russian Federation a pilot experiment is being conducted to pay benefits directly from the Social Insurance Fund budget. FSS units in the experimental regions themselves calculate and pay “children’s” benefits to employees. Cm. " ".

If an organization or individual entrepreneur has employees to whom he is obliged to pay child benefits, then the employer should know the amount of child benefits from January 1, 2017.

Indexation of benefits from January 1, 2017

There will be no indexation of “children’s” benefits from January 1, 2017, since legislators did not provide for such an indexation coefficient. However, payments for children will be indexed from February 1, 2017, taking into account the index consumer prices for 2016. In this regard, from January 1 to February 1, 2017, “children’s” benefits should be paid in the same amounts as in 2016. Let us summarize the amounts of “children’s” benefits in the table from January 2017. These dimensions have not changed in any way.

However, some changes in the amount of benefits from January 1, 2017 will still occur. We'll talk about them further.

Monthly allowance for child care up to 1.5 years

So, we said above about the minimum monthly allowance for child care up to 1.5 years (see table). The minimum size has not changed in any way since January 1, 2017. This benefit is not limited to the maximum amount. However, the amount of average daily earnings from which child care benefits are calculated is limited.

Therefore, if maternity leave begins in 2017, when calculating, it is necessary to take the values ​​of the maximum values ​​of the base for calculating contributions to the Social Insurance Fund for 2015 and 2016. Let us remember that in 2015 limit value base was 670,000 rubles. (Resolution of the Government of the Russian Federation dated December 4, 2014 No. 1316), and in 2016 – 718,000 rubles. (Resolution of the Government of the Russian Federation dated November 26, 2015 No. 1265).

Taking into account the new values ​​​​of the maximum base, in 2017 maximum value the average daily earnings for calculating the benefit is 1901.37 rubles (670,000 rubles + 718,000 rubles) / 730. Note that the exact value is 1901.3698630136 rubles, but in further calculations we will use 1901.37 rubles.

Next, let’s calculate the maximum average earnings for a whole month. For these purposes, you need to multiply the average daily earnings for the average monthly number of calendar days equal to 30.4 (Part 5.1 of Article 14 of Law No. 255-FZ). Total in 2017, the maximum average monthly earnings for calculating benefits will be 57,801.64 rubles. (RUB 1,901.37 × 30.4).

Example. From January 16, 2017, employee of Zoology LLC Odinokov A.S. goes on maternity leave. The billing period is 2015 and 2016. In 2016, the woman was on sick leave for 25 calendar days, and on maternity leave for 124 days.

Salary for 2015 - 350,000 rubles, for 2016 - 240,000 rubles. Number of days in billing period- 582 days (365 + 366 – 25 – 124). Average daily earnings- 1013.745704 rub. ((RUB 350,000 + RUB 240,000) / 582 days).

Thus, in 2017 maximum dimensions maternity benefit reimbursed from the Social Insurance Fund will change and amount to:

• RUB 266,191.8 (RUB 1,901.37 × 140 days) - in the general case;
• RUB 368,865.78 (RUB 1,901.37 × 194 days) - for multiple pregnancies;
• 296,613.72 rubles (1901.37 rubles × 156 days) - for complicated births.

The calculation of child care benefits up to 1.5 years is carried out according to a special algorithm and has a number of rules that should be taken into account. The article presents step-by-step instruction, which will help you calculate the correct payments for a child, and also provides examples of calculating child benefits in 2019.

The birth of a child in a family is associated with several types of social benefits that the state provides to young parents: sick leave maternity benefits, one-time and monthly child care benefits.

The last of these guarantees is provided for one and a half years from the date of birth of the child and is calculated individually for each employee. After 1.5 years, the payment stops, and the young mother can only count on an additional payment of 50 rubles, which is made by the Social Insurance Fund.

According to Labor Law, not only the mother, but also the father of the child, as well as the child’s grandparents, brother or sister have the right to take, and therefore receive the appropriate payment.

Reasons for payment

Payment of child care benefits is made on the basis of the issued leave order - you can download a sample. She will also need to provide documents confirming that this type benefits were not paid to the spouse. This can be done by requesting a non-accrual certificate from his place of work.

The calculation period for calculating child care benefits up to 1.5 years will be the two previous years. However, they do not necessarily have to correspond to chronology. The employee can, at his discretion, choose the time when income was higher and apply them to the calculation.

To calculate benefits for a child up to 1.5 years old, it will also be necessary to determine the number of days in this calculation period. From the amounts received, it is necessary to exclude the time when the employee was on sick leave, on maternity leave or on leave to care for her first child.

The procedure for calculating benefits up to 1.5 years in 2019 - step-by-step instructions

Moreover, if during this time the employee changed her place of work, it is important for her to provide certificate 182 from each employer. Otherwise, these incomes will not be taken into account and will reduce the annual income.

The determined amount includes not only wages, but also premium payments, bonuses and other remunerations from which transfers were made to the Social Insurance Fund.

Important: The legislator has determined the upper limits that can be taken to calculate benefits for up to 1.5 years. For 2019 it is being done, taking into account the current restrictions of previous years:

• 624,000 rubles in 2014
• 670,000 rubles in 2015
• RUB 718,000 in 2019

This means that even if the employee’s annual income is high, child benefits can be calculated taking into account these restrictions.

Payment terms

According to established legal norms, the calculation of benefits for children up to 1.5 years must be made no later than 10 days from the moment the full package of documents was submitted to the personnel department of the enterprise. And the payment of benefits must coincide with the date of payment of wages at the enterprise, fixed in the Internal Labor Regulations and employment contract employees.

Examples of calculating child benefits

Example 1 when years are replaced for calculation

The organization's HR department received a package of documents: an order for parental leave for up to 1.5 years from February 3, 2019, certificate 182 of income for 2014 equal to 703,000 rubles, an application to change the calculation period. The employee has been working in the organization since November 2, 2015; her income in 2019 was 699,000 rubles.

• Based on the employee’s application, we calculate income for 2014 and 2019. Since the amount indicated in certificate 182 is higher than the established limit, the total will look like this:

624,000+ 699,000 = 1,323,000 rubles.

• The total number of calendar days in the calculation is 731 days, due to the fact that 2019 was a leap year. The average daily earnings were: 1,323,000/731=1809 rubles and 90 kopecks.
• We calculate the amount of benefits payable: 1809.9 x 30.4 x40% = 22,008 rubles.

Example 2

The employee has an employment relationship with the organization from 04/03/2019, until this moment of confirmed employment or insurance period Did not have. Parental leave has been issued since May 11, 2019. Income for the time worked in the organization in 2019 amounted to 560,000 rubles

• When determining income for 2015, we proceed from minimum size wages equal to 7,500 rubles per month, i.e. 90,000 per year. We sum it up with income for 2019, getting 650,000 rubles.

Important: the minimum wage is determined by regional values, for example, in Moscow and the Moscow region it is 17,561 rubles.

• Average daily earnings were: 710000/731 = 889.2 rubles.
• Amount of benefit payable: 889.2 x 40% x 30.4 = 10,812 rubles and 67 kopecks.

Example 3 when calculating benefits for a second child

The employee took leave to care for her second child from February 10, 2019, interrupting maternity leave with her first child, which began in July 2015. The previous child care benefit was calculated based on income in 2014 and 2013. Since the employee did not submit an application for the transfer of the period, the calculation will be made based on their earnings for 2019 and 2015.

• When calculating the period, we exclude from 2019 140 days that fell on calendar maternity leave with the first and second children.
• Income for 2019 amounted to 250,000 rubles, for 2015 – 400,000 rubles. Average daily earnings were: 650,000 rubles/591 days = 1,100 rubles.
• Amount of benefit payable: 1100 x 40% x 30.4 = 13376 rubles.

It is important to note that in the case of calculating benefits for a third child, its amount cannot exceed the employee’s average monthly income.
