Welcome to website... In the article we will tell you what relates to social payments due to citizens of Russia. Not every person can independently support his or her life for many reasons. The state provides material support to such citizens.
In accordance with the new system of indexation of benefits to various categories of citizens, social payments in 2019 will be revised. As a result, the amounts of all payments to the population will be suspended.
Not everyone knows what is included in payments of a social nature, they represent compensations and benefits that various categories of citizens receive. These payments are financed both from the federal budget and from regional budgets.
The appointment of such payments can be made due to the inability to earn a living on their own or if there is a lack of money to cover various expenses. All payments are made at the legislative level and are free of charge.
The payment of these benefits to a person or his family members is made directly and have a number of distinctive features:
- Appointment and payment is made only by government agencies.
- Allocation of money for benefits is carried out from the regional or federal budget, as well as on the basis of co-financing.
- Paid once or continuously.
- The amount of the benefit can be established by law or determined based on the recipient's income.
- The nature of the benefits is targeted.
- The payment is made on the basis of the need of the citizen, if it is absent, then the payment stops.
Certain factors play an important role in the appointment of these social benefits:
- Health status (registration of sick leave and temporary disability due to illness or injury, purchase of drugs, and others).
- Life circumstances (pregnancy and childcare).
- Features of everyday life, that is, solving the issue of housing.
- Changes in social status (retirement, dismissal from work or the birth of a baby).
To whom are social payments intended?
All payments of a social nature that are assigned by the government are intended for citizens of specific categories. The law is the same for each region, therefore local authorities cannot make their abolition for various reasons. Federal beneficiaries are:
- Single citizens of retirement age who have completed their work.
- Families with many children, if the children have not reached the age of 18 or 23 when studying at full-time.
- Disabled people.
- Disabled children.
- Children who are brought up in single-parent families.
- Orphans and children who have not reached the age of 18 and are left without parents.
- Children whose parents or both parents are pensioners or disabled.
- Parents who are full-time students.
- Citizens who have titles, awards and certificates.
- Pregnant women and those on parental leave.
- Parents with disabled children.
- Citizens caring for a disabled person of group 1.
- Able-bodied citizens who were laid off during the layoff.
How payments are classified in 2019
The law stipulates what refers to social benefits and how they are classified. Government payments are divided into two main types:
- Federal payments. They are appointed under certain conditions, which are specified in the relevant regulatory legal acts, and the funds for them are allocated by the relevant departments. The categories of privileged citizens are the same for each region, regardless of the place in which they live. The amount of these subsidies is also the same for all citizens. They present additional benefits to basic payments or at the time of obtaining a new status.
- Regional payments. The assignment and payment of these benefits is carried out directly in each region. The amount of such payments depends entirely on the capabilities of the region, and they are regulated only by the local administration. A distinctive feature of such payments is that they are not mandatory for each region. These payments can be paid to the employee by the employer, but all the same, these benefits are compensated to the employer from the local budget.
Also, social payments are divided according to the target area into two types:
- Payments that can fully or partially compensate for lost income. They are provided in the form of social security. Such insured events include work-related injuries, illness, pregnancy and newborn care. The amount of these payments depends entirely on the applicant's salary.
- Payments that are provided in the form of material support for the population. They have a fixed amount and are independent of the applicant's salary. Benefits are paid to both insured persons and those who do not have insurance. Examples of these payments are childbirth allowance or burial allowance.
Also, social benefits are divided into citizens who have the right to receive them:
- For all citizens. For example, payment at the birth of a baby.
- For working citizens. For example, sick leave for temporary disability and maternity benefits.
These two types of benefits are financed from different organizations, that is, from the budget and from social insurance.
Also, social payments are divided according to the duration of payments, that is:
- Lump sum payments - benefits for working women who were registered during early pregnancy, benefits for the pregnant wife of a conscript, and others.
- Monthly payments - for unemployment, until the child reaches the age of 1.5 years.
- Periodic payments - for temporary incapacity for work, prenatal leave and others.
What are the state social benefits
In Russia, there are various types of social benefits that are paid by the state. These payments include:
- Unemployment. This benefit is received by citizens who are registered at the labor exchange. The amount of benefits is determined on an individual basis. The allowance is paid temporarily and is due to citizens who are looking for work.
- For temporary disability. Payment occurs after the presentation of the sick leave. The amount depends on the employee's salary. Payment is made only if the company makes contributions for the employee to the FSS.
- Maternity. The payment is made to every woman regardless of whether the woman is employed. It is also assigned to the adoptive parents of a child under the age of three months.
- At the birth of a child. Can be received by one of the parents who is officially employed. The payment is made from the federal budget.
- Single mothers. Payment is made only if the father is not indicated on the child's birth certificate. The size for working women depends on wages, for non-working women on the minimum wage.
- For burial. This payment is made to the relatives of the deceased, to compensate for the costs of the funeral. In some regions, additional payments may be made to the size set at the federal level.
- Disability. It is paid to all disabled people, and the amount of the allowance depends entirely on the group that is assigned to the disabled person.
- Low-income families. It is due to all citizens whose average per capita income is below the subsistence level in the region.
Changes to some social payments since the beginning of 2019
The draft budget for 2019 was approved back in November last year; in accordance with this draft, the first social benefits have been indexed since January 1.
The authorities in the regions are also taking all measures to provide material support to the needy categories of citizens, so an increase in payments will occur both at the federal level and at the regional level. The amount of such increases will fully depend on the capabilities of regional budgets.
Most of the citizens of retirement age were pleased with the news about the increase in pensions. Indexation this year did not occur in February, as it always has been, but since January 1. This decision was made to increase the income of the population at the end of the year.
In the country, indexation is entirely dependent on inflation, and pensions will accordingly increase by 3.7%. But the increase in pensions will be only for those citizens who have stopped working.
An additional increase will take place in April, with an indexation of social pensions by 4.1%. These increases will be for citizens who receive payments for disability and survivors. Social pensions are supposed to be received by citizens who have reached a certain age, that is, 60 years for women and 65 years for men, but they do not have the required amount of work experience for representatives of small peoples of the Far North.
When calculating specific payments, the minimum wage is used. Calculating this value is a very complicated process, since it uses data from past inflation, the cost of living, the economy, the number of unemployed citizens and other factors. In January 2019, the minimum wage will increase, the total amount will be 11,280 rubles.
With the increase in the minimum wage, several types of benefits will be increased:
- A one-time childbirth allowance, its amount will be 17328.89 rubles, must be issued in the first 6 months of a child's life.
- Maternity payments for the first child will amount to 4512 rubles, and for the second and subsequent children, 6284.65 rubles.
One-off childbirth benefit
Regardless of which child is born in the family, the first, second or subsequent, the state provides social benefits for children in 2019. One of these benefits is a lump sum payment upon the birth of a child. It can be received by one of the parents of the baby until he reaches the age of 6 months.
The amount of this allowance is the same both for the working population and for unemployed citizens. Payments are made for working citizens from the FSS, and for non-working people from the social protection authorities. The amount of the payment is 17,328.89 rubles, this amount has been set after indexation from February 2019 at 1.034%.
If one or both parents work, then the payment is made at the parent's place of work. Only parents who do not work or study can apply for a social security benefit.
The payment processing procedure is much easier if the child has only one legal parent. That is, if a single mother or father, whose mother has died or was deprived of parental rights, and he is engaged in education. In this situation, during registration, additional provision of a certificate is not required that the second parent does not receive this payment.
All other one-time benefits can only be received by a woman, since most of them are issued even before the baby is born, including maternity benefits, which are allowed only for working mothers and their registration is made at 28 or 30 weeks of pregnancy.
An additional payment to maternity leave is a one-time allowance for early registration with an antenatal clinic, the amount of the allowance, taking into account indexation, is 649.84 rubles. To receive this payment, it is necessary, simultaneously with the filing of the sick leave, to provide a certificate from the doctor of the antenatal clinic, which will confirm the early registration.
If a woman does not work, then she is not entitled to this supplement to the childbirth allowance.
Also, in each region, additional payments are provided at the birth of a baby from social protection of the population. The amount and terms of these payments are fully dependent on the budget and local regulations. So, for example, in Moscow at the birth of the second and subsequent children to parents who have not reached the age of 30, a lump sum payment of more than 100,000 rubles is provided for each baby.
Payments for the care of a child under 1.5 years old
In addition to lump-sum benefits, the law provides for social benefits for children under the age of 1.5 years. This benefit is the second compulsory benefit. This allowance can be received by one of the parents or other family members who care for a child up to the age of 1.5 years. It does not depend on the social status of the recipient or his employment.
For citizens who have an official place of work, the calculation of the allowance is based on wages, and is 40% of its average value for the last 2 years, but the amount cannot be lower than that established at the legislative level.
Non-working parents can receive only the amount that is established by law, the registration of the allowance is made in the body of social protection of the population. The amount of the allowance at the moment is:
- 4512 rubles for the birth of the first child.
- 6284.65 rubles for the birth of a second child and subsequent children.
Parents or guardians of the baby who work receive this benefit in a higher amount, but only if their income in the last two years exceeds the average wage:
- When applying for a benefit for the first baby - 7,870.90 rubles (when applying for a benefit after February 1, 2019).
- When applying for benefits for the second and subsequent children - 15,741.77 rubles (when making payments after February 1, 2019).
Since the average earnings are less than the minimum wage in the country. Then the amount of the benefit will be calculated in accordance with the size of the minimum wage, then the amount of the benefit will correspond to the minimum amount of benefits in the country.
Working recipients can count on not only the minimum benefit amount, but also the maximum amount. This amount of payments depends entirely on the size of the insurance base for the last two years.
Second child benefits
At the birth of a second child, the same list of benefits is paid as at the birth of the first baby, that is, a one-time social payment at birth and benefits up to 1.5 years. The amount of benefits does not change, except for benefits up to 1.5 years, it increases and amounts to 6284.65 rubles. This allowance is compulsory and is paid to both working citizens and applicants who do not work.
When the second child is born, the parents receive a maternity capital certificate.
It is also worth knowing that with the birth of a second child, a family can receive the status of a poor family. Since the family income is divided for each member and, accordingly, decreases by 25% -30%, as a result, the average per capita income of each family member may be lower than the subsistence minimum per person, which is established in the region.
This status gives parents the right to receive additional benefits, which are assigned by the regional government. Their registration and payment is made through social protection only to low-income citizens, that is, according to the criterion of need.
About maternity capital in 2019
In addition to the fact that social payments to poor families are made from the regions, at the birth of a second baby, parents receive maternity capital. It has not been indexed for the third year in a row. In 2019, the amount of maternity capital also remained unchanged and amounts to 453,026 rubles. There will be no changes in the amount of capital until early 2020.
Many families are afraid that due to annual inflation, the purchasing power of this certificate could fall dramatically. But it is worth remembering that inflation affects only the cost of the consumer basket, and capital cannot pay for simple goods in the store.
Capital can be used only in those directions established by law, as a result, the certificate is less sensitive to price increases. As a rule, about 90% of holders of this certificate send it to improve their living conditions. Housing prices fell sharply during the crisis, and the rise is now taking place at a moderate pace.
With all this, the popularity of the certificate did not fall, but rather increased greatly, as there was a significant decrease in mortgage rates. Now, if housing is purchased under a mortgage program, and the certificate is used as a down payment, then the amount of such a contribution becomes very significant, since along with the decrease in mortgage rates, the amount of overpayment for this loan has also decreased.
According to statistics, it becomes clear that more than half of the apartments in the country were purchased under the mortgage program and 40% of such transactions were carried out using maternity capital. The age of borrowers has dropped significantly, by 14 years, that is, housing is purchased by young families who do not have their own apartments, but have a stable income and two children.
As a result, the freezing of capital indexation is logical, since the financial sector in the country has stabilized greatly and the owners of this capital have great opportunities to purchase apartments, while receiving minimal overpayments.
On social payments in Moscow in 2019
Substantial investments have taken place in the Moscow economy, which has led to an increase in social benefits. According to the mayor of the capital, at the time of the meeting with the categories of citizens who are eligible for these payments, in 2019 there will be an increase in regional benefits. In January there was an increase in standards, now the pension standard is 18,800 rubles. The head of the department of labor and social protection said that this increase will affect about 1.4 million pensioners.
For those families whose incomes are below the average subsistence level in the capital, in 2019 they will receive the following social benefits:
- Single parents until the child reaches 3 years old - 15,000 rubles.
- For children under 3 years old, whose fathers are conscripts - 15,000 rubles.
- If a child under 3 is raised by one parent, and the other evades paying alimony - 15,000 rubles.
- Other families with children under 3 years old - 10,000 rubles.
- For children aged 3 to 18, who are raised by a single parent - 6,000 rubles.
- For children aged 3 to 18 years old, whose fathers are doing military service on an urgent conscription - 6,000 rubles.
- For children aged 3 to 18, who are raised by one parent, and the other does not pay alimony - 6,000 rubles.
- Other families with children aged 3 to 18 - 4000 rubles.
To keep the demographic situation in the country in positive dynamics, the state provides social benefits to families with many children in 2019. They are also provided with a number of certain benefits and additional payments. Large families are also supported in the capital, and they set their own amounts of payments to this category of citizens:
- Monthly allowance for 3 or 4 children - 1200 rubles.
- The monthly allowance if there are 5 or more children in the family is 1500 rubles.
- For the purchase of necessary goods in families with 5 or more children, the monthly allowance is 1800 rubles.
There is also a program of monthly benefits for families with 10 or more children:
- Compensation - RUB 1,500.
- Assistance in purchasing goods - 1800 rubles.
- Mothers with many children who receive a pension - 20,000 rubles.
Compensation for payments for housing and communal services, which is paid every month:
- Families with 3 or 4 children - 1044 rubles.
- Families with 5 or more children - 2088 rubles.
- When using the phone - 250 rubles.
There is also an annual support for large families:
- For the purchase of necessary things for the school year - 10,000 rubles.
- Families with 10 or more children for International Family Day - 20,000 rubles.
- Families with 10 or more children for the Day of Knowledge - 30,000 rubles.
In addition, in 2019 there will be an increase in payments to families in which children with disabilities are brought up. The Moscow government has set its amounts, which do not depend on the disability group. As a result, a parent raising a disabled child receives a monthly allowance until the child reaches the age of 23 in the amount of 12,000 rubles.
If the child is raised by parents with disabilities of groups 1 or 2, then the monthly allowance is 12,000 rubles. Also in 2019, families with a disabled child are entitled to an annual allowance for the purchase of children's clothing for the period of study in the amount of 10,000 rubles.
What payments are provided for retirees
People who have stopped working and retired can only receive a pension from the state. Previously, pensioners were entitled to an annual payment of 5,000 rubles. But at the time of the economic crisis, the indexation did not cover the growth of inflation and the income of the population, therefore it was canceled and in 2019 it is also not paid, since the past indexation turned out to be higher than the inflation figures.
The number of pensioners who have a Moscow residence permit is significantly increasing. This happens due to the size of payments, which are much higher than in other regions. As a result, pensioners received a Moscow residence permit, but lived at their old addresses, receiving a Moscow pension.
As a result, the government of the capital carried out a gradation of the population, and divided the pensioners into indigenous and non-indigenous people. As a result, those pensioners who have had a residence permit in the capital for less than 10 years are not native residents.
Social payments to pensioners in 2019 also received significant changes. In 2019, indigenous people receive a supplement to their pension, which increases the payment to the social standard; such an increase is not made to other pensioners. The only exceptions were pensioners of the new Moscow, after these districts became part of the capital, the residents automatically became indigenous.
At the moment, all pensioners, regardless of the length of their residence, receive additional payments that increase their pension to the subsistence level, which is set at 18,800 rubles.
