Poor families with children got the opportunity to improve their financial situation due to an additional benefit introduced from June 1, 2020. Find out how to get the payment for children from 3 to 7 years old in 2021.

Who can become the recipient of the payment

The list of persons entitled to receive additional benefits is enshrined in the legislative acts of the Russian Federation. Low-income families, where the income for each household does not exceed the subsistence minimum established in the region, can count on financial assistance from the state.

In addition, the parents (one of them), as well as the child (children) must be citizens of the Russian Federation.

The program applies only to minor family members who are 3 years old (from 2020-01-01), but not more than 8 years old.

If several minors of the specified age group are brought up in the family, the payment is charged for each child.

How and where to get the benefit

You can apply for the calculation of benefits both when visiting the My Documents Center (MFC) or the territorial department of social protection, or remotely (through the State Service portal). If the applicant wishes to use the mail services, you should choose the option of sending a letter with the ability to track it.

How to make a payment through the MFC

Reception of citizens is carried out by appointment. Before visiting a government agency, you must prepare a package of documents:

• passport of both spouses or one of them, if the family is incomplete;
• SNILS of all family members;
• birth certificate of a child (children);
• bank details for crediting funds;
• documents confirming the existence of other income, if any.

No additional certificates are required to be presented, since all the necessary information is requested by the MFC employees on their own.

The application is subject to mandatory registration, indicating the date of admission and assigning an individual number.

How to apply through the State Service portal

Submitting an application through the Single Portal of the State Service becomes possible only if you have a confirmed account.

Step-by-step instruction:

1. After authorization on the site, the user should activate the "Submit application" option. The button is at the bottom of the page.
2. Next, you should check the correctness of the data (filled in automatically from the profile on the State Service website). Change them if necessary.
3. Then the following information is entered into the form:

Registration address and passport details of the applicant

Additional income (if any). A hint will appear on the page with information about which incomes should be excluded from the calculation

Details of minor family members and second spouse, ticking the name of the child for whom the payment is being made

Data of the child's birth certificate: place and date of issue of the document, the name of the state institution, the number of the act record (not to be confused with the number of the certificate). If there are other children in the family, information about them is also entered into the application form by clicking the "Add" button

Full name of the spouse, his SNILS number, date of birth, details of the deed of marriage

Passport data of the spouse, information about her (his) additional income

Method of receiving payment: through a bank organization or post office

The numbers of the current and correspondent accounts and the BIC of the financial institution - details are published on the bank's website

After activating the "Submit application" button, the user will be redirected to the page with the application number and status

The notification letter on registration of the application will also be sent to the applicant's e-mail.

Terms of consideration

The decision on the appointment of the payment is made within 10 working days. In some cases (for example, if information from other departments is delayed), the period can be extended up to 20 working days.

If for any reason the payment was made in the appointment, the applicant must be informed about this within one working day from the date of the relevant decision.

You can track the status of the application on the State Service portal in your personal account. Notifications will also be sent by e-mail.

The allowance is issued for a year, after which it is necessary to apply again for its accrual.

Changes in the procedure for assigning payments

According to the presidential decree, the amount of monthly compensation corresponds to 50% of the subsistence level in force on the territory of a particular constituent entity of the Federation for the year of circulation. Recall that earlier the PM value for the second quarter of the last year was taken as the basis.

The payment is subject to annual indexation following the increase in the size of the child's subsistence allowance.

The amount of state aid will be doubled if, taking into account the benefits received, the financial situation of the family does not improve.

Compensation for children from 3 to 7 years old is not a temporary financial assistance to Russian families. The program began even before the pandemic was announced. After the quarantine restrictions are lifted, payments will continue.

In addition to the presidential allowance, low-income parents can count on the help of the regional authorities. Its volume is determined depending on the capabilities of the local budget, and the procedure for appointment is regulated by the regulatory legal acts of the region.

Grounds for refusal to assign payment

The appointment of payment will be refused if the following circumstances occur:

• death of a child;
• provision of incomplete or inaccurate data;
• the family's average per capita income exceeds the subsistence minimum;
• other cases.

Where to complain in case of unreasonable refusal

If, after 20 days, the applicant has not received a notification of the appointment of the benefit, it is necessary to contact the territorial department of social security and find out why the application was left without movement.

If you receive a refusal, you should also clarify the reason. In case of an erroneous filling of the form, it is enough just to enter the corrected information and re-apply.

If there are no legitimate reasons for making a negative decision, experts recommend filing a complaint with the appropriate authorities.

The PFR branch acts as the initial instance. The employees of the department are obliged to explain to the applicant the reason for the refusal and further actions. If necessary, accept the complaint and consider it within 10 working days.

The applicant must keep a copy of the complaint-statement indicating the date of acceptance.

The lack of a result on the part of the FIU is the basis for contacting the prosecutor's office.

Outcomes

You can apply for the appointment of a payment when you visit the MFC or the territorial body of social protection. It is allowed to issue a payment remotely - through the Single Portal of the State Service.

The beneficiaries are families whose average per capita income does not exceed the subsistence minimum in a particular region.

The amount of compensation is 50% of the PM. In some cases, the amount increases to 100%.
