Improving the demographic situation in the country is one of the priority tasks. To solve it, the government takes various measures, develops programs to support families with children. Both monthly and one-time payments are provided for them..

What are presidential benefits for children

At the end of 2017, Federal Law No. 418-ФЗ On Monthly Payments to Families with Children was adopted. We developed it on the instructions of President V.V. Putin. According to this document, from the beginning of 2018, monthly benefits are assigned to Russian families with children.

The people gave them the eloquent name “presidential payments”.

This is additional cash that is added to other children’s benefits. The allowance is provided only for the birth or adoption of the first and second child before reaching the age of one and a half years. Its value is equal to the children’s cost of living for last year’s second quarter in the region under consideration.

Payments for 1 child

Only low-income families have the right to receive Putin’s allowance for the first-born. It is paid to a woman for a newborn up to one and a half years. This money does not cancel the appointment of other amounts, such as maternity, childcare. The subsidy is carried out from the state budget in two stages. First you need to complete the design up to a year.

After 12 months, parents will have to reapply for a subsequent payment..

Allowance for 2 children

A low-income family also has bonuses for a second newborn. They are paid out of the amount of maternity capital. To save it in full, you can not draw up Putin’s allowance. However, it is intended only for families that fit certain criteria. For example, taking into account the priority of the child in relation to the woman.

If the couple has a second joint baby, but the mother is the third, then the child benefit will not be assigned.

Who should pay Putin payments

The conditions for applying for benefits for the first and second newborn are the same:

• birth or adoption occurred after January 1, 2018;
• the applicant and the baby must be citizens of the Russian Federation and permanently reside within the country;
• income per family member should not exceed 1.5 living wages for the working population of the subject (from the beginning of 2020 – 2 PM).

Calculation of the average family income

Parents need to start applying for benefits by receiving a 2-personal income tax certificate for 12 months from all employers. In addition, it is required to provide information on other payments received. To calculate the average per capita income, you need to add all the amounts.

The result must be divided first by 12, and then by the number of family members, including children. The result of the calculation will be the desired value.

What incomes are taken into account

1. Wage.
2. Hospital, vacation, business trip.
3. Pensions, scholarships.

Comparison with the cost of living

In 2019, the average family income should not be more than one and a half times the subsistence level. These figures can be found on the website of the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation.
