The birth of a third child gives the family the right in some regions of Russia to receive a special status - according to which state support is provided, namely, additional ones.

Benefits can be lump sum (paid once) or monthly (paid once a month until the child reaches a certain age).

These can also be various types of certificates: generic, for the purchase of housing, etc. or benefits: free travel, partial compensation of rent, etc.

Expected changes in 2019

The Maternity Capital program, which began in 2007, is coming to an end, but citizens are concerned about the news about the introduction of new conditions from 2016 - payment of 1.5 million rubles. when a third child appears in the family.

Back at the April 2015 meeting, a proposal was received from Belgorod parliamentarians on provision of targeted payments those families that have the status of “large” Estimated validity period of the law: from 01/01/2017 to 12/31/2026.

Until now this the issue remains unresolved. The State Duma Committee, which deals with family issues, explains the impossibility of the bill as follows: among large families there will be an unequal financial situation depending on the point in time when the right to receive a certificate appeared (until the end of 2016 - this is 500 thousand rubles, and after that – already 1.5 million rubles).

In addition, the proposed bill does not provide for the necessary recalculation to take into account annual price increases, therefore, among families becoming eligible to receive subsidies, there will be unequal criteria during the program period.

There are several others contradictions :

1. Will they be able to get 1.5 million rubles? large families who previously applied for state material support in accordance with the law on maternity capital, which began in 2007.
2. Establishing a non-alternative restriction on the use of the provided subsidy, that is, if a family needs to improve their living conditions, then it cannot spend the funds for other purposes.
3. The program significantly increases the expenditure side of the budget, but does not provide for any additional source of funding.

In 2019, there will be fundamental changes in the amount of benefits for this category of citizens Did not happen. However, most income items changed upward. This happened thanks to the indexing of basic norms and coefficients, as well as taking into account the level of inflation. On average, this year financial assistance will increase by 4.3% compared to the same period last year.

One-time assistance

Let's look at the financial benefits that parents can count on when they have a third child. The procedure for their calculation does not differ from the specifics of determining benefits for the first and second children and includes the following subsidies:

• for early (no later than 12 weeks) registration of a pregnant woman with a consultation – 655.49 rubles;
• a one-time maternity benefit is equivalent to the mother’s official earnings for the last 24 months in full, subject to official employment. For unemployed citizens, this amount will be much less;
• one-time payment for the birth of an heir – 17,479.73 rubles. The deadline for filing an application is no later than six months from the date of birth. For wives of military personnel, this amount will be 27,680.97 rubles in 2019.

If a woman applying for benefits due to the fact that she registered before the 12th week of pregnancy does not have a permanent place of work, then she will need to collect the necessary documents:

All these documents must be submitted to the FSS authority in accordance with the place of permanent registration (the originals must be provided).

If the mother works, then a certificate of early registration and an application must be provided to the manager.

Registration of one-time assistance At the birth of a child, the following documents are required to be submitted to the place of work:

• certificate from the registry office issued upon registration of a newborn;
• birth certificates;
• certificate from the spouse stating that he did not receive this benefit;
• applications addressed to the manager for payment of benefits.

The non-working part of the population must collect the same documents, plus:

• original and photocopy of identification documents;
• work book;

Monthly payments

A woman who has given birth to a third child is entitled to receive a monthly benefit until the child reaches her birthday. The exact amount will be determined by the accountant depending on the mother’s average earnings over the last 2 years.

Monthly varies in different regions of the country. Often it is equal to the child's due.

This type of accrual can be applied to either of the parents. The following information will help you do this correctly:

• for those who work officially, the amount of benefit for a third child under 1.5 years old will be 40% of the average salary for the last 24 months. Moreover, this value varies in the range from 6554.89 to 26,152.33 rubles;
• if the organization in which a woman worked before giving birth was liquidated during her maternity leave, she will receive benefits on the same basis as employees, but not more than 26,152 rubles for up to one and a half years;
• If the place of official employment was lost even before the onset of pregnancy, the parents registered at the labor exchange for the third child will receive compensation in the amount of the child's subsistence level in the region.

Maternal capital

A family in which a third child was born can issue a certificate for receiving maternity capital, but only if this payment was not issued for the second child.

In the event of the birth of twins or twins in a family, that is, a second and third child at the same time, the amount of maternal capital remains unchanged. If the only parent or adoptive parent is a man, he can apply for this state assistance on the same grounds as a woman.

Maternity capital falls into the category of social assistance to families with children and is provided to those of them who did not take advantage of this law, right, when a second heir appears.

This project has been officially extended until the end of this year, which means that an even larger category of citizens will be able to properly manage the certificate, which can be spent on the following purposes:

• improvement of living conditions;
• education;
• purchasing your own real estate;
• mother's pensions;
• social and medical adaptation of children with health problems.

Its value at the moment is equal to 453,026 rubles. It is likely that from 2020 this amount will be indexed and will change upward.

Fringe benefits

The birth of a third child is accompanied by the provision of the following state benefits for large families:

Regional features

In Moscow Families in which a third child was born are provided monthly:

• Benefit in the amount of 1500 rubles. up to 1.5 years and from 3 to 18 years, and 2500 rubles. from 1.5 to 3 years.
• Compensation payment in connection with the constantly increasing cost of food in relation to certain categories of citizens - 675 rubles. until the child reaches 3 years of age.
• Compensation for expenses associated with the ever-increasing cost of living. 600 rub. – up to 16 years of age or up to 18 years of age, depending on the place of study.
• Rent compensation – 522 rubles.
• Reimbursement for telephone conversations – 230 rubles.

In addition, local authorities annually allocate 5,000 rubles. large families for the purchase of a school uniform for each child receiving primary basic or secondary general education.

In an effort to at least slightly reduce the financial difficulties of families experiencing a third child, the authorities St. Petersburg established the following types of benefits and benefits for their citizens:

• 30% discount when paying for utility services. If the family’s place of residence is a private house that is not equipped with central heating, then the same discount can be used for the purchased fuel.
• 50% discount on purchasing a ticket to get to the sanatorium. The benefit can be used by both a minor and one of the parents (accompanying).
• Free transportation within the city for a child and one of the parents.
• Providing free school and sports uniforms, as well as hot meals.
• Free prosthetics and orthopedic equipment.

In addition to the above, a family in which a 3rd child was born can count on receiving a preferential mortgage loan.

The one-time compensation payment for a third child in the northern capital is 43,729 rubles. Parents with many children whose place of employment is a budgetary institution are entitled to a special payment in the amount of 2,434 rubles.

Up to 1.5 years of age, 3,768 rubles are paid monthly for the third and subsequent children.

In addition, the family can apply for a monthly payment until the child reaches 3 years of age. When calculating the number, all children are taken into account, regardless of their age and degree of independence. The amount of the payment corresponds to the child's subsistence level established in St. Petersburg at the time of application.

The specifics of regional support for large families are determined by the budgetary capacity of the constituent entities of the federation, therefore the amount of compensation and subsidies is determined individually.

In large and economically developed cities, with the birth of a third child, a family can claim the following privileges, which will be financed at the local level:

• in addition to state types of monthly child care benefits for children under 1.5 years of age, additional material income is provided in a number of cities, the average amount of which ranges from 1,000 to 3,000 rubles;
• if the subsistence level is insufficient, the family can apply for an extension of regional payments until the child turns three years old;

In addition, such families have been taking advantage of the opportunity for preferential mortgage lending for several years, and have the right to free travel, sanatorium treatment, provision of medicines, and a discount on utility bills.

The following video explains what payments are due at the birth of a third child:

2017 is a time of big news for young families. After all, it is from this date that, according to the authorities, significant changes will be made to the mechanism for paying maternity capital. They will primarily affect payments for the third child in 2017. A third child in our difficult economic times is already a great feat for most families. And, without the support of the state, many would have completely abandoned such an idea and the demographic situation in the country would have been even worse.

In 2014, a bill was seriously discussed, according to which it was planned to establish payments for the third child at the level of one and a half million rubles. But the reality turned out to be such that they not only did not accept such an amount, but also completely froze the indexation of maternity capital until 2020.

Benefits in Russia: matkapital

In 2007, exactly a decade ago, a federal program was launched aimed at natural population growth and designed to support mothers who decided to have a second or more children. The program was called “maternity capital”.

Its essence is as follows: after the birth or adoption of the second (or third, if there was no payment for the second child for some reason) child, one of the parents of the newborn or adopted baby is paid a certain amount of money. The payment is issued in the form of a certificate and is issued for strictly defined purposes by law. This could be either improving living conditions, or the mother’s pension savings, or the child’s education. Payments are regulated by the law “On additional measures of state support for families with children.”

Over the years of the program’s existence, more than 50 million families have already taken advantage of its opportunities, and more than 720 billion rubles have been spent on maternity capital payments. However, nothing lasts forever, and this social program as a measure to help families should have ceased to exist - its validity expired on December 31, 2017. It is known so far that V. Putin signed a decree extending the program until the end of 2018, but, let’s be honest, this is most likely due to the upcoming presidential elections, so as not to lose some of the population’s votes. But since 2019, the prospects for maternity capital are very vague.

The end of the program raises many questions. The most important of them: how will the refusal of government support affect young families just getting on their feet? And can the cessation of payments be considered reasonable in the context of a protracted economic crisis? Will this cause a sharp decline in the country's birth rate?

Officials of various ranks made several assumptions regarding the possible future of the social program. There are two main ones:

• first: extend maternity capital payments for subsequent years, thereby increasing the validity of the law;
• second: to make changes to the current (still) legislation, adjusting the conditions for receiving maternity capital.

Whether maternity capital payments will continue in 2017, or whether the existing system will be revised will become known in the next few months.

Payments in 2017 for the third child

Belgorod deputies submitted to the State Duma a bill providing for changes to the existing federal law on financial assistance to families. Its essence is as follows:

• for the birth of a third child in 2017, payments will amount to 1,500,000 rubles.

The amount of payments will no longer be indexed due to inflation, as is happening now. The benefit for the birth or adoption of a third child will be fixed and, as in the previous version, exclusively targeted. First of all, the amount should be used to improve living conditions, if the family, of course, needs it. This condition for the payment of maternity capital - expansion of living space if necessary - is supposed to be directly stated in the text of the law.

But the main innovation, as planned, was not that in 2017 the amount becomes unchanged, but in the conditions for its receipt: payments are supposed to be made only after the birth/adoption of the third child. In the current version of the law, maternity capital is due after the birth of a second child in the family.

The authors of the initiative calculated that if this amendment to the law is adopted, the costs of payments will change significantly. Thus, according to the data given in the accompanying note, in 2017 almost 410 billion rubles will be spent on supporting large families. A year later - in 2018 - the amount of payments for the third child will approach 434 billion, and in 2019 payments for maternity capital from the budget will require 458 billion rubles.

However, this proposal is still under consideration in the Duma. The likelihood that he will be accepted is extremely low, and therefore it is somewhat premature to say with confidence that 1,500,000 will be given for the third child in 2017.

Of course, the maternity capital program had a huge impact on the growth of the birth rate in the country - and even opponents of this social support measure will not dare to challenge this. According to the data cited in the report by the authors of the program, during its existence the number of babies born in the country increased by more than 60%. Whether these figures will change with the termination of the program, whether we can expect an increase in the birth rate if payments for the third child amount to one and a half million - time will tell.

Other benefits and payments for the third child in 2017

While the question of what they give for a third child in Russia in 2017 remains open, let’s consider some other social payments due to families at the birth of children.

• One-time payment. The amount is paid once after the birth of the child. The amount of the payment is calculated based on the average salary for the next two years before going on maternity leave. Non-working mothers can count on the minimum benefit determined by law.
• Monthly allowance for large families. This social measure is intended to support families who have decided to have a third child. It is paid regularly, once a month, from the moment of birth for 18 months, that is, until the child turns one and a half years old.
• Monthly regional allowance. These payments are made for each newborn child. Unlike all previous options, this type of social support is not federal, but is calculated based on the cost of living established in each region. The list of federal subjects in which social payments are made is determined by the government.

In addition to the listed payments for the third child in 2017, each region independently determines various social measures aimed at supporting large families. You need to find out about possible benefits and benefits from the regional social protection authorities at your place of residence.

With the birth of the third child, the family is already considered to have many children, and this provides many privileges and benefits.
