Over 3.8 million residents of the city received the right to free travel. Increased allowances and payments to Muscovites will begin to accrue from the beginning current year. In 2018, all citizens who have the right to benefits and social services will be able to fully realize it.

In total, more than 430 billion rubles are planned for social support for Moscow residents in 2018 (in 2017, more than 390 billion were allocated for this). An important achievement in the field of social services has been the transfer of services to electronic form. Already 26 public services in the field social protection can be obtained from the comfort of your home, and nine of them are available exclusively online. Hereafter the list electronic services will continue to fill up.

What assistance is provided to pensioners

Moscow allowances for pensions from January 1, 2018 increased by three thousand rubles. Thus, the minimum pension has increased from 14,500 to 17,500 rubles per month. The increase will affect about 1.4 million pensioners. For another 43,000 unemployed citizens of retirement age, the city surcharge is charged for the first time. Monthly payments to veterans of the Great Patriotic War and home front workers, labor veterans, people affected by political repression, and holders of a number of state awards have doubled. The annual cash "gifts" to families-anniversaries have also increased: the amount of payment to Muscovites who have been married for 50 years will now amount to 20 thousand rubles. Payments on the occasion of the 55th anniversary of married life, the 60th anniversary and so on have doubled and even more. In addition, more than 110,000 single non-working pensioners aged 70-80 years old can take advantage of the relief on paying contributions for major repairs.

But not only material support is important, but also the formation of active and useful leisure for the older generation. Last year, the City of Longevity program was launched in the capital. Thanks to her, older citizens can attend a variety of interest groups, dance groups, excursions, play sports and gain new knowledge. Today, more than 500 schools for pensioners are open, where they teach the basics healthy lifestyle life, safety, self-defence, learn to cope with chronic diseases such as diabetes mellitus. They are already visited by about 60 thousand people.

On November 1, 2017, another educational project, the Silver University, was launched in the city. Classes are organized with the participation of the Moscow City Pedagogical University and are held both on the basis of educational institutions and territorial centers of social services. The lecturers of the Moscow Pedagogical state university, school teachers, student volunteers and other involved professionals. Here you can learn the basics of computer, financial, legal literacy, study foreign languages, get a job as a nanny and gardeners of urban areas. So far, there are almost three times as many people wishing to enter the university as there are educational places. Therefore, the project will be expanded in the new year.

For disabled elderly people who, for health reasons, cannot leave their apartment, there is a "Sanatorium at home" in Moscow. If one of the patients needs urgent help, employees of the Mobile Social Service, which was created at the city social protection centers, are ready to come to the rescue. Social workers will bring groceries, call a doctor or help take medication. Nursing services are also provided to guests of the home "sanatorium". The program participants are over five thousand people, including pensioners, veterans and invalids of the Great Patriotic War.

What will support large and low-income families

Since 2018, payments to families with children in need of assistance have increased several times. First of all, it concerns low-income citizens. For them, benefits for a child under three years old will amount to 10 thousand rubles, and for a child over three years old - four thousand rubles (before that it was two to three thousand, depending on the age of the child). For single mothers and families where one of the parents evades child support, payments for a child up to three years old will increase from three to five thousand to 15 thousand rubles a month.

In addition to material assistance, more than 10,000 children from low-income families will receive vouchers to camps and sanatoriums, as well as free school meals. In addition, in the social protection centers you can get food and food certificates, as well as certificates for the purchase of clothing, shoes and children's goods and certificates for the provision of durable goods, which can be used in the capital's stores.

Since this year, monthly compensation payments have doubled due to the rising cost of living (up to 1,200 rubles for families with three or four children and up to 1,500 for families with five or more) and payments for the purchase of children's goods. In addition, large families will continue to be provided with free travel on public transport (for children and one of the parents), free parking and places in kindergarten, school meals, discounts for museums, sports and cultural events, and free tickets to the zoo.

All Moscow families with children receive material support from the city. In addition to the federal allowance, Muscovite parents receive a one-time payment of another 5,500 rubles for the first, 14,500 for the second and subsequent children. And if triplets are born, then the family receives 50 thousand rubles. In addition, young families who have a child are encouraged in the capital. If both parents are under 30 years old, they will be paid five times the subsistence minimum (seven times for the second, 10 times for the third and subsequent). An excellent help for families with small children traditionally remain dairy kitchens operating at the capital's clinics.

Thanks to social support, every year in Moscow there are more families with many children. The city is now providing financial assistance over 125 thousand large families in which more than 315 thousand minor children are brought up. For comparison, in 2011 there were only 73,000 such families.

What social guarantees can people with disabilities count on?

From January 1, 2018, the allowance for parents raising children with disabilities will be 12,000 rubles (instead of 6,000). Also, a new allowance is being introduced for these families - an annual payment for the purchase of a school uniform (10 thousand rubles). More than 1.1 million disabled people in Moscow, families raising children with disabilities, and participants in the liquidation of the Chernobyl accident nuclear power plant 50% discounts on utility bills are provided.

Since January 2016, due to changes in federal legislation, people have been forced to pay in full for water, electricity and heating, which they spent in excess of the norms. However, the city authorities restored the benefits, now the townspeople again pay only 50 percent of the bill for the entire communal apartment, regardless of consumption standards. In addition to the traditional material support for people with disabilities (fare for travel, housing and communal services, rehabilitation facilities, and so on), the capital is actively adapting the city's infrastructure for them.

Since 2014, more than 25,000 social certificates worth more than 110 million rubles have been issued to disabled people in Moscow. Thanks to them, Muscovites in need of help were able to purchase electric multifunctional medical beds, bedside tables, steps and boards for the bath, chairs for the bath and shower, as well as other necessary goods. In 2016 alone, almost 270,000 people received technical rehabilitation equipment and prosthetic and orthopedic products, and more than 55,000 Muscovites with disabilities were assisted in rehabilitation. Tens of thousands of citizens with disabilities will continue to receive sanatorium treatment at the expense of the city budget.

How to help orphans and their guardians

The city continues to support those who take children left without parents into their families. In 2017, the amount of payments to foster parents, guardian families, trustees and foster carers was increased by 10 percent in the capital. Their size now ranges from 16,500 to 28,390 rubles, depending on the age of the children, their number in one family and their state of health. Also, Moscow social services provide training and support for foster families. There are 57 schools for foster parents and 54 organizations that provide support to families raising orphans in the capital.

For the past four years, Moscow families that have adopted at least five orphans, of which three children are over 10 years old and (or) disabled, have been receiving housing under an agreement free use. After 10 years, foster parents who conscientiously and continuously performed the duties of raising orphans are provided with an apartment under a contract social recruitment or property.

At present, 92 percent of all orphans are being raised in families, and only 8 percent are in social institutions. Eight years ago, the ratio was 74 percent to 26 percent. In 2018 all social work, targeted support for orphans and the search for suitable families, guardians and foster carers for them will continue.

Child benefits in 2019 are indexed in accordance with current level inflation. Let's talk about the key changes in the size and procedure for calculating benefits.

The amount of child benefits is reviewed every year. The procedure for the annual increase in payments is established by paragraph 1 of Article 1 federal law dated December 19, 2016 No. 444-FZ: payments for children should be reviewed annually on February 1, taking into account price increases last year. The indexation coefficient is approved by the Government of the Russian Federation. Let's analyze in detail all the innovations in children's 2019.

Indexation of child benefits in 2019: changes

From January 1 to February 1, 2019, child benefits are paid in the same amounts as last year. And from February 1, payments are indexed by a new coefficient (with the exception of maternity capital), set in accordance with the inflation rate in 2018.

Since February 1, 2019, child benefits have been indexed by a coefficient 1,043 (Government Decree No. 32 of January 24, 2019). Although initially they planned to increase payments by 1.034 times. Last year, the Government published a relevant draft resolution. But there have been changes.

1.043 is the approved child benefit indexation factor in 2019. From February 1, 2019, children's payments are paid taking into account the new coefficient.

Coefficients that increase the amount of benefits and compensations

The Labor Code of the Russian Federation guarantees an increased coefficient for the payment of wages to citizens who work in regions with a difficult climate. Also, the coefficient is used when calculating the amount of social insurance, if at the place of work it is for reporting period was not taken into account.

According to Law No. 81-FZ of May 19, 1995 district coefficients to wages, which were established in certain regions Russian Federation, before today are used when calculating the amount of social payments to employees with children, in the following cases:

  • payment of benefits established for the next year in a fixed amount, as well as in the current minimum or maximum size;
  • calculation of benefits social insurance provided that during the payment of wages for the billing period they were not taken into account at the place of work.

However, since 2015, the issue of abolishing all used regional coefficients has been actively discussed. The Government considers them a relic of the past. Here is what Maxim Topilin, Minister of Labor and Social Protection, thinks about this issue:

“The situation in the economy has changed dramatically. IN this moment the increased ratio only causes unnecessary problems for employers' accountants. It should be understood that the system for accruing payments has changed a lot since the days of the USSR. That is why the “northern allowance” is just a leftover unnecessary formality.”

At the moment, it is still difficult to predict what development the consideration of this issue in the State Duma will take.

Sizes of child benefits from the Social Insurance Fund

The Russian social insurance system guarantees child benefits to women in connection with motherhood and due to temporary disability. What and what do the amounts of child benefits from the Social Insurance Fund depend on?

Their exact amount depends on the average income from which financial contributions were made to the insurance fund.

Compensation for childbirth and pregnancy

Its amount is equal to the income of a woman for 2 previous years. In 2017, the minimum payout amount is 34520.55, maximum amount- 265827.63. The duration of sick leave as of this year is 140 days.

Maternity allowance

One-time assistance at the birth of a child is 16,350.33 rubles. This amount is paid to one of the parents, or to a person replacing him. It is calculated as working - in the form compulsory social insurance, and non-working citizens in the form of state social security.

To assign a one-time payment at the birth of a child, one of the parents must submit documents for the provision of benefits no later than six months after the birth of the child. If twins or triplets are born, the payment is provided for each child.

Allowance for the care of a child up to one and a half years

Paid monthly until the child reaches the age of one and a half years. Exact amount compensation depends on the number of children in the family. If the child is alone, the payment is equal to 40% of the woman's monthly salary. If two - 80%, if three or more - 100%, which is the limit. The amount of cash payments for each child - no more than 23120.66.

The remaining compensations paid at the place of work and related to the birth of a child are accrued in the prescribed amount.

Additional accrual to the maternity and pregnancy allowance

It is paid to women who were registered in the antenatal clinic at a gestational age of up to twelve weeks. This payment is provided by the employer when a woman goes on maternity leave (together with maternity allowance on pregnancy and childbirth), at the place of study, or in the social protection service of the population at the place of residence.

Child benefits and benefits, as well as the cost of living in 2017

The amounts of payments, which are established by both the federal and regional authorities, directly depend on the subsistence level per child. At the same time, both the average indicator for the Russian Federation and a separate indicator for each region are taken into account.

Today, the living wage established on 01.12.2016 remains relevant. According to the government decree, the minimum for an adult is 9889 rubles, for a child - 9668.

Certain conclusions can be drawn by evaluating the amounts of child benefits indicated in the table above and the subsistence minimum. Here are some of them:

  • Childbirth allowance, payments for caring for him up to 1.5 years, as well as maternity capital - a significant and tangible assistance for family budget. These sums really help parents to support and bring up children at the first stages of their life.
  • Families with many children with children under 3 years of age, a monthly allowance is due. It is paid from regional budget and corresponds living wage for every child. Low-income families are eligible to receive compensation.
  • There are also very insignificant payments in the list of benefits that bring practically no benefit to families. It's about about monthly payments per child, as well as assistance to women registered with a consultation in the early stages of pregnancy. In this context, one cannot fail to recall also compensation for parents on parental leave. Its size is only 50 rubles per month.

Even taking into account some negative points, it can be noted that over the past ten years, state support for families with children has become more significant. And if we compare the current situation with the 90s, the difference is simply colossal.

Maternity capital for the second child in 2017

This year, the system for calculating benefits for the second child has been changed. Still, these payments have three main purposes:

  • Housing. It will be possible to use the accrued money not only to pay the first installment, but also interest on the mortgage.
  • Child education. For the capital received, you can create a separate bank account, the money from which will be used to pay for tuition in the future. Some media outlets claim that foreign educational institutions will also be available.
  • Pension. Payments can be accumulated on bank account mother. Subsequently, this capital will be used to help parents when they reach retirement age.

This year, this list has been replenished with one more item - the maintenance of a sick child. The accrued funds can be spent on the purchase of medicines, procedures and rehabilitation activities for a disabled child.

There are also plans to introduce another option for targeted spending of the funds received. It's about buying a new car. By bringing such an initiative to life, its creators expect to achieve two goals. The first is assistance in acquiring vehicle young families. The second is assistance to the domestic automaker.

The main change affects the very essence of maternity capital. Since 2017, the entire family has been the recipient of the money. Now the father can also apply for the funds. Note that the second child himself can also receive a full right to payments. This happens if the mother and father were deprived of parental rights.

Amount of payments for the second child

This year, the maternity capital for the second child is 453,026 rubles. This figure may rise in the coming years. The position of the State Duma is as follows: the amounts of payments will be increased when the budget stabilizes, and its revenue side increases. Some of the money for the second child can be withdrawn in cash. It is 20 thousand rubles. This sum of money can be spent on the current basic needs of the baby: a crib, diapers, clothes, medicines, and more.

The regions also have own programs family support. The money received thanks to them can most often be spent at your discretion, without targeted spending.

Indexation of child benefits

In 2008 Russian Government A procedure for indexing all child allowances was established. When recalculating the amounts of payments, the forecast level of inflation in the state was taken into account, which was determined in the budget for each fiscal year. Indexation made it possible to completely or partially avoid the reduction in the importance of benefits for families, given the annual increase in prices for goods and services.

This indexation option has one big drawback: actual inflation always exceeds the forecast level. At the same time, we consider the actual inflation as the indicator determined by Rosstat, which, as a rule, is underestimated.

Let's take 2015 as an example. Maternity capital and the amount of payments per child after indexation increased by 5.5%. The year ended with an inflation rate of 12.9%. Thus, the real purchasing power of these benefits fell by 7% in just one year.

According to the current laws of the Russian Federation, additional indexation of payments is carried out only when the parameters of the main budget of the country are revised. Such a procedure is carried out extremely rarely and only in the event of a serious financial crisis.

Moreover, the revision of budget parameters is not a guarantee of additional indexation. In 2015, the Government adopted new edition budget law. The document featured an inflation rate of 12.2%. This figure reflects real situation affairs in the country, which cannot be said about the previous indicator - 5.5%. However, in the same year, a law was passed to suspend the indexation of child benefits and maternity capital.

As a compensation, since 2016, the procedure for recalculating the amounts of payments has changed. As for pensions, indexation for child benefits, according to the law, is carried out taking into account actual inflation in the state, and not forecasted. In each year, indexation should be carried out taking into account the inflation of the previous financial year.

Anton Siluanov, head of the Ministry of Finance, said the following about this: “ Economic situation deteriorated in the country. The indexation of benefits, taking into account the forecast inflation, must be removed.”

There were no radical proposals. There are ideas in the State Duma to move away from the practice of indexing payments for inflation altogether. Instead, it is proposed to recalculate all benefits and compensations solely at the discretion of the Government. In this case, no "bindings" work. The specific amounts of benefits and compensations depend on the budgetary reserves of the state.
