It is allowed, at the request of a woman, on the basis of a statement, to replace the years in the billing period, for example, if in 2017 or 2018 she was on another child leave.

How to calculate childcare allowance for a child under 1.5 years old in 2019

Step 1 - determine the average daily earnings

As mentioned earlier, earnings for 2017-2018 are taken into account, if the young mother has not expressed a desire to choose another two years for calculating payments.

The maximum allowable average daily earnings for calculating benefits in 2019 is 2,150.68 rub. in a day.

The minimum average daily earnings in 2019 is 370.85 rub. in a day.

When calculating the childcare allowance in 2019, the following should be excluded from the calculation: periods of temporary disability, maternity leave, parental leave, the period of an employee's release from work with full or partial retention of wages in accordance with the law, and other payments for which insurance contributions to the Social Insurance Fund were not charged.

Example

An employee of the company "Accent" Kuznetsova A.N. received the following types income in 2017: salary - 339,000 rubles, extra pay for overtime work - 12,000 rubles, performance bonus - 30,000 rubles, birthday bonus - 2,000 rubles, the amount of compensation for expenses for evening English courses language - 27,000 rubles. Unpaid leave Kuznetsova A.N. was 10 days.

As a result, for 2017 the size of the considered payments will be: 339,000 rubles + 12,000 rubles. + 30,000 rubles. + 2,000 rubles = RUB 383,000 (The amount of compensation for expenses for evening English courses - 27,000 rubles is not included in the calculation).

Worker Kuznetsova A.N. in 2018 she earned: temporary disability allowance - 33,000 rubles, salary - 445,000 rubles, extra pay for overtime work - 6,000 rubles, performance bonus - 17,000 rubles, birthday bonus - 2,000 rub.

Total for 2018 the size of the considered payments will be: 445,000 rubles. + 6,000 rubles. + 17,000 rubles. + 2,000 rubles = RUB 470,000 (allowance for temporary incapacity for work 33,000 rubles for 22 days is not included in the calculation).

The average daily earnings for calculating the childcare allowance is (383,000 rubles + 470,000 rubles) / (730 days - 22 days) = 1,204.80 rubles.

Let's check ourselves: the result obtained is not less than the minimum average daily earnings in 2019, equal to 370.85 rub. per day, and not more than the maximum possible average daily earnings of 2,150.68 rubles. in a day.

Step 2 - calculating the amount of the benefit

For a full calendar month, the amount of the monthly allowance for caring for a child under 1.5 years old is determined by multiplying the average daily earnings by the average monthly number of calendar days, equal to 30.4, from the resulting amount we take 40%. The base is.

Examples of

1. Employee of the company "Alpha" Levchenko S.G. gave birth to her second child, since May 1, 2019 she has been taking parental leave up to 1.5 years old, her average daily earnings for 2017-2018 amounted to 868.86 rubles.

Payments Levchenko S.G. for caring for a child up to 1.5 years for each full month starting from May 2019 are equal to: 868.86 rubles. x 30.4 days x 40% = RUB 10,565.34

Checking ourselves: the amount of the childcare allowance for a child under 1.5 years Levchenko S.G. for a full month at least set minimum in 2019 - 6,284.65 rubles. and not more than the possible maximum - 26 152.33 rubles.

For an incomplete calendar month, the childcare allowance for a child under 1.5 years old is calculated in proportion to the number of calendar days (including non-working holidays) in a month falling on the period of going on vacation.

The calculation formula takes the allowance for a full calendar month of parental leave under 1.5 years old, divided by the total number of calendar days in the month for which the allowance is paid, and multiplied by the number of calendar days in this month that falls on the parental leave a child under 1.5 years old. The base is.

2. An employee of the company "Titan" N.V. Grigorieva. gave birth to her first child, since April 19, 2019 she went on parental leave to care for a child up to 1.5 years old, her average daily earnings for 2017-2018 amounted to 722.19 rubles.

The amount of the allowance for N.V. Grigorieva in April 2019 for incomplete month is equal to: 8,781.83 rubles. / 30 days x 12 days = RUB 3,512.73

For each subsequent full calendar month of parental leave under 1.5 years of age, the payment of the allowance will be equal to: 722.19 rubles / day. x 30.4 days x 40% = 8,781.83 rubles.

We check ourselves: the calculated amount of the allowance for caring for a child up to 1.5 years old N.V. Grigorieva. for a full month is not less than the established minimum in 2019 - 6,284.65 rubles. and not more than the possible maximum - 26 152.33 rubles.

Nuances to pay attention to

You can receive benefits on the basis of an application. Approximate wording of an application for parental leave to an employer:

"I ask you to provide from" ____ "________ 20 ___. leave to care for my third child (son Vadim Anatolyevich Vetrov, date of birth: 04/25/2019) until he reaches the age of 3 years, with the accrual and payment of a monthly allowance for caring for a child up to 1.5 years old.

Applications:

a copy of the son's birth certificate;
a certificate from the place of work of the child's father stating that he does not use parental leave for a child under 1.5 years old and does not receive a monthly allowance;
statement to replace the years in the calculation () ;
certificate of income from the previous place of work ( optional, provided if necessary)»

If the mother of the child (or the person who will receive benefits) works in several organizations at the beginning of the vacation, she will be able to receive payments only in one place of work. You can choose an employer from whom it is more expedient to receive benefits, and it does not matter whether this work is the main place or part-time work. The selected employer may not refuse to receive child care benefits ().

It is worth remembering that it is necessary to write an application in advance, because payments for childcare are assigned if the application was followed no later than six months from the date the child reaches 1.5 years of age (). Therefore, if you apply for benefits after six months, you run the risk of being unpaid. The list of valid reasons for missing the deadline for applying for benefits has been approved.

If the time coincides for the two types of leave - childcare and maternity leave - it is impossible to combine the two leaves, you will have to choose one of the social benefits.

If a woman does not officially work, a monthly childcare allowance up to 1.5 years is assigned from the date of the child's birth. However, if she is eligible for the monthly parental benefit and unemployment benefit, you cannot receive two benefits at the same time, you should choose only one.

Allowance for caring for a child up to 1.5 years old in 2015 is entitled to receive not only the mother, but also other family members who actually take care of the baby. The amount of the childcare allowance for a child under 1.5 years old in 2015 depends on several factors.

Who is paid childcare allowance for a child under 1.5 years old

Childcare allowance for a child under 1.5 years old in 2015 not only the mother of the baby has the right to receive. Family members who actually take care of the baby have the right to it (Article 256 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation). For example, it might be a grandmother. To do this, she must write a statement in which she asks to submit a parental leave and assign a benefit.

The application must contain the surname and first name of the child who will be looked after by the employee, as well as who he is to her.

If two or more relatives are caring for the baby, one person of their choice is eligible for the benefit.

In accordance with Federal Law No. 81-FZ dated 19.05.1995 "On government benefits citizens with children ", the right to childcare allowance for a child under 1.5 years old in 2015 have:

relatives of the child subject to compulsory social insurance
contract mothers
dismissed in connection with the liquidation of the organization: mothers - during pregnancy or maternity leave, other relatives - during parental leave
mothers, fathers, guardians who are full-time students
relatives who are not subject to compulsory social insurance (in the event of the death of the mother and (or) father, deprivation of their parental rights, etc.)

A part-time worker, like any other employee, has the right to child leave (Article 256 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation). But the allowance for caring for a child up to one and a half years is prescribed and paid by one of the employers (part 2, 2.1 of article 13 Federal law dated December 29, 2006 No. 255-FZ). Who exactly is up to the employee. For example, at the main place, the employee will write an application for the provision of child leave with payment of benefits. And the employer will concurrently submit an application for vacation only. That is, without payment of benefits.

From February 1, 2019, child benefits are increased, which are paid to one of the parents until the child reaches the age of 1.5 years in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Law of 05.19.1995 N 81-FZ. The Russian government will index how minimum amount benefits, and the maximum.

Let us tell you in more detail how many rubles are the allowance for caring for a child under 1.5 years old in 2019 in Russia - the changes affected both the maximum and the minimum amount of the payment.

Who is eligible for benefits?

The child's relative who actually takes care of him from birth to 1.5 years of age can apply for the allowance. Most often it's mom. But the baby's father or other relative, guardian can also go on parental leave. This person has the right to count on receiving assistance from the state in the form of an allowance. Only this right needs to be confirmed. When the parental allowance for a child under 1.5 years old is issued at the place of work by one of the parents, he submits a certificate stating that the other does not receive such payments from his employer. If, for example, a grandmother goes on parental leave with the receipt of a "child's" allowance, then certificates must be provided from both parents.

Allowance for caring for a child under 1.5 years old in 2019 (an online calculator will allow you to make calculations quickly and independently) for general rule makes up 40% of average earnings. There are restrictions on the amount of the allowance, both in relation to the upper limit and the lower one.

Minimal wage

The minimum amount of the childcare allowance for a child under 1.5 years old in 2019 is provided to non-working mothers / fathers or in cases where the work experience is less than 6 months.

For 2018, the coefficient was established by Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 74 dated January 26, 2018 (its size is 1.025). Therefore, until February 1, 2019, the allowance for the first child continues to apply, which was previously valid - 3,142.33 rubles.

According to the draft resolution of the Government of the Russian Federation, child benefits in 2019 from February 1 will be indexed and increased by a factor of 1.043. The project bears the name "On Approval of the Size of Indexation of Payments, Benefits and Compensations in 2019", ID 01/01 / 12-18 / 00086773, developed by the Ministry of Labor, date of creation - 11.12.2018.

RUB 3,277.45- this is the amount of benefits that the unemployed are entitled to in this year for the first child.

Another situation is when the recipient of the allowance is working, but during the billing period did not have income or his salary did not reach the current minimum wage for a full calendar month. Recall that the minimum wage from January 1, 2019 is 11,280 rubles. For the first child, such persons will receive RUB 4,512 monthly for the first child from the beginning of the year.

In this case, the amount of the benefit for the second and subsequent children is:

RUB 6,284.65 - until 31.01.2019;
RUB 6,554.9 - from February 1, 2019 (taking into account the proposed indexation).

Maximum speed

The maximum amount of the childcare allowance for a child under 1.5 years of age in 2019 is paid to a working citizen if his salary exceeds the upper limit. The earnings accrued for 2 years preceding the one in which the baby is born are taken into account. When there are periods in which there was no earnings, the amount of the minimum wage is taken.

Formula: (amount of salary for 1 year + amount of salary for 2 years) / 730 (number of days in 2 years) x 30.4 (average length of a month) x 40%

The amount taken into account for the year should not exceed the established limit:

in 2018 - 815 thousand rubles;
in 2017 - 755 thousand rubles;
in 2016 - 718 thousand rubles.

It turns out that the maximum average daily wage, which is used to calculate the amount of the benefit, in 2019 is RUB 2,150.68

Taking into account the last indexing maximum amount the allowance will be RUB 26,152.27(2150.68 rubles x 30.4 days x 40%). For last year, the value of 24,536.57 rubles was relevant.

contract mothers;
mothers and fathers, employees of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, State Tax Inspectorate, UIS, at customs, who went on parental leave;
mothers dismissed during pregnancy due to the liquidation or closure of legal entities or individual entrepreneurs.

Accordingly, with the application of the new coefficient of 1.043, this amount will increase to RUB 13,109.81

Where and how to get the benefit?

When both parents are officially employed, then there are no problems: the registration goes through the employer's HR department. Let's say mom writes a statement on type sample, dad provides a certificate from work that he did not receive these funds and did not request. Also from the documents it is necessary to provide birth certificates of children. It is not the employer who pays the money: it is provided by the Fund social insurance from contributions deducted from earnings.

It becomes more complicated when the other parent is not working. Then he receives a certificate of absence of payments from the FSS. If the employer (to whom they planned to apply for benefits) has ceased to exist, you will also have to apply to the FSS.

When both parents are unemployed, the benefit pays social security at a minimum.

What has changed with regard to "child" benefits in 2019?

Anyone who counts on childcare benefits for a child under 1.5 years old in 2019 (changes occur frequently in Russia) should monitor regulations on this topic. It is better to study the calculation methods, you can use calculators on special sites.

The fact is that child benefits are indexed by a coefficient calculated according to the inflation rate of the previous year. According to Law No. 81-FZ, this happens in February of this year, but regulations are usually issued earlier - in January, and come into force in February. Example - Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 74 dated January 26, 2018, relevant for the last year, mentioned above.

From February 1, the current amount of benefits will increase by 4.3% in accordance with the draft resolution No. ID 01/01 / 12-18 / 00086773.

It is important to take into account that if regional increasing coefficients are used in the locality, then they are used in the calculation after the indexation of the amount of the benefit. This happens on the basis of Art. 5 ФЗ № 81.

Important changes last year affected additional child benefits up to 1.5 years. They are not provided to everyone, but only to those families where per capita income per month does not exceed 1.5 times the size of the regional minimum wage (established for the 2nd quarter of last year for able-bodied population). The allowance is paid in an amount equal to the "child" living wage set for the 2nd quarter of the previous year. If the family meets the condition, then funds are provided for the first, for the second child (from the funds of the mother capital), for subsequent ones, and until the baby is 1.5 years old.

To determine the amount of the monthly allowance for caring for a child under 1.5 years old, it is necessary to calculate the average daily earnings of an employee, calculated for two calendar years preceding the year of occurrence of the corresponding insured event as well as average monthly earnings. Since January 1, 2015, the minimum allowance for caring for the first child is 2,718.34 rubles, for the second and subsequent ones - 5,436.67 rubles.

The employer is obliged to provide a woman, upon her application, with parental leave (Article 256 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation). Such leave can also be taken by the father or another relative of the child, if he actually takes care of the child. Therefore, such leave can be used partially. For example, one part of the leave will be taken by the mother and the other by the father of the child. The same parent can also take part-time leave. For the period of such leave, the employee retains his place of work and his position. At the same time, he is entitled to receive a monthly childcare allowance until the latter reaches the age of 1.5 years.

If more than one person is caring for one child, only one of them is entitled to benefits. At the same time, the allowance is paid for each child. Therefore, if, for example, different family members are caring for several children, then everyone can exercise the right to benefits.

The entitlement to benefits arises from the moment the employee is sent on parental leave. This date must be reflected in the vacation order. Typically, this is the day following the day the maternity leave ends.

We consider the allowance for caring for a child up to 1.5 years old

To calculate the monthly childcare allowance, it is necessary to calculate the employee's average daily earnings, calculated for the two calendar years preceding the year of the occurrence of the corresponding insured event, as well as the average monthly earnings.

Average monthly earnings = Average daily earnings x 30.4 days.

The amount of the monthly allowance that is due to the employee for each full month of parental leave is 40 percent of his monthly earnings. The payment of the allowance for the care of a child up to one and a half years is reimbursed to the employer at the expense of the FSS of Russia.

EXAMPLE
In 2013, the manager received the following income: salary - 442,000 rubles, additional payments for overtime work - 24,000 rubles, bonuses for the holidays - 4,000 rubles, monthly bonuses for work performed - 36,000 rubles, the amount of compensation for expenses for an increase qualifications - 15,000 rubles. In 2014, the employee's salary amounted to 504,000 rubles, bonuses for the holidays - 4,000 rubles, monthly bonuses for work performed - 42,000 rubles, temporary disability benefits - 21,000 rubles.

Let us clarify that in 2014 the employee was on sick leave for 16 days.

The amount of payments in favor of the employee in 2013 was:

442,000 + 24,000 + 4,000 + 36,000 = 506,000 rubles.

Income amount in 2014:

504,000 + 4,000 + 42,000 = 550,000 rubles.

It turns out that the amount of earnings in 2013 and 2014. do not exceed limit values accrual of insurance premiums established for the corresponding year. This means that in the calculation we take into account the income received in full.

The total amount of earnings will be:

506,000 + 550,000 = 1,056,000 rubles.

Average daily earnings are:

RUB 1,056,000: (365 days + 365 days - 16 days) = RUB 1,478.99 / day

The maximum average daily earnings are:

(568,000 rubles + 624,000 rubles): 730 days. = 1632.88 rubles / day

Calculated average daily earnings women are below the maximum allowable, therefore, when calculating the allowance, we will take into account the calculated value of this indicator.

Let's calculate the average monthly earnings to determine the childcare allowance:

RUB 1,478.99 / day x 30.4 days = RUB 44,961.30

The amount of the monthly allowance for caring for a child under one and a half years for a full month is:

RUB 44,961.30 x 40% = 17 984.52 rubles.

Often, a parent or other family member does not take parental leave from the beginning of the month. Therefore, the amount of the monthly benefit must be adjusted for the number of calendar days (including non-working holidays) during which the employee was on nursing leave.

Let's say, in our example, the vacation starts on 03/21/2015.

The monthly childcare allowance in March 2015 will be:

RUB 17,984.52 : 31 days x 11 days = 6381.60 rubles.

Minimum and maximum amount of allowance for caring for a child up to 1.5 years old

The amount of the allowance for caring for a child until he reaches the age of 1.5 years should not be less than 1,500 rubles (when caring for one child) or 3000 rubles (when caring for a second and subsequent children) (Article 15 of the Federal Law of 05/19/1995 No. 81-FZ).

At the same time, these values are annually adjusted to take into account the inflation rate. Since January 1, 2015, the minimum allowance for caring for the first child is 2,718.34 rubles, for the second and subsequent ones - 5,436.67 rubles.

The maximum amount of childcare allowance for a child under 1.5 years old in 2015 can be determined by multiplying maximum size average daily earnings by 30.4 and 40 percent.

That is, the maximum amount of monthly childcare allowance in 2014 is 19,855.82 rubles (1,632.88 rubles / day x 30.4 x 40%).

In addition, the amount of the benefit in the localities where district coefficients To wages, is determined taking into account these coefficients, but only if they were not taken into account in the salary.

If a woman is caring for two or more children, then the amount of the benefit is summed up per child. At the same time, its amount cannot exceed 100 percent of the employee's earnings, from which this payment was calculated, but there cannot be less than the summed up minimum amount of the benefit.

If a woman worked for several employers during the billing period, then the allowance should be assigned to one of the last places of work of the employee's choice. In this case, all payments received by her from other policyholders and on which insurance premiums were charged are taken into account (part 2.1 of article 13 of Federal Law No. 255-FZ of December 29, 2006).

Not only the mother, but also the father (or guardians) can issue it. It should be borne in mind that the right to receive benefits arises only after the end of the validity period maternity leave... Those. only 70 days after the birth of the child (86 - with complicated childbirth or 110 - with multiple pregnancies).

Both employed and unemployed citizens can count on.

The procedure for calculating child allowance up to 1.5 years in 2015

In 2015, the calculation procedure is the same as in 2014. The calculation is based on the woman's average monthly earnings for the two years preceding the occurrence of the insured event. Child allowance up to 1.5 years now does not depend on seniority and is paid monthly in the amount of forty percent of the average monthly earnings.

Formula for calculation child allowance in 2015 can be represented as follows: ((income-2013 + income-2014) / 730 days * 30.4 days) * 40%. The calculation does not include the time a woman is on sick leave or on vacation.

For example, a woman's income for 2 years was 450 thousand rubles. Accordingly, the mother can claim an allowance in the amount of 7495.9 rubles.

When a second child (or twins) appears, payments are summed up. But they should not exceed the average monthly earnings.

The minimum guaranteed amount of child benefits up to 1.5 years in 2015

The minimum benefits are due to the following categories of citizens:

unemployed;

individual entrepreneurs;

persons with work experience of up to six months or a salary less than the minimum wage.

Indexing minimum benefits in 2015 is proportional to the growth of the minimum wage. For 2015, it is set at the level of 5965 rubles. The minimum state-guaranteed child allowances up to 1.5 years this year will amount to 2718.35 rubles. monthly. When caring for a second child, the amount doubles to 5436.67 rubles.

The maximum amount of child allowances up to 1.5 years in 2015

The law also establishes the maximum amount of child benefits. It is calculated based on the maximum earnings from which the employer pays contributions to the Social Insurance Fund. In 2015, only 2013 and 2014 are taken into account for calculating the maximum allowances for children under 1.5 years of age. During the periods indicated, the maximum amount of taxable payments was 568 and 624 thousand rubles. respectively. Based on this, the maximum amount of child benefits in 2015 cannot be more than 19,855.78 rubles.
