Single mother benefits and allowances. Single mother Benefits and allowances Social assistance for single mothers

Payments to single mothers in 2019 are provided by the state when a woman is raising a child alone. The reasons for this may be different, but the result is always the same: the child grows up in an incomplete family.


In order to put it on its feet, it will take a lot of effort, and, given the rise in prices, and money. In order to somehow help a woman raising a child, the State provides social benefits.

Let's see in what cases a woman can get the status of a single mother and what material payments and benefits are she entitled to?

Who is a single mother in terms of legislation?

Not every single woman can get this status and take advantage of all the benefits.

The following categories of women are recognized as single mothers:

  1. If a woman gave birth out of wedlock and there is no record of the father in the birth certificate.
  2. If an unmarried woman has adopted a child.
  3. If a woman gave birth during marriage or within ten months after a divorce and the former spouse managed to prove that the child is not from him.

To whom the status of a single mother is not assigned?

  1. After a divorce, the spouse does not pay alimony.
  2. If ten months have not passed since the termination of the marriage or the death of the husband before the birth of the child. In this case, the woman's husband is automatically considered the father. In the event of a divorce, alimony will be collected from him. If a man dies, a survivor's allowance will be paid. Even if the deceased was not his biological father.
  3. A woman whose child's father was deprived of parental rights.
  4. If an unmarried woman through the court proved the paternity of the child. Even if a man does not communicate with her, she is not recognized as a single mother.
  5. If a woman's spouse dies, she does not receive the status of a loner. Her child will receive benefits in connection with the death of the breadwinner.

How is this status assigned?

  1. If there is no information in the baby's birth certificate in the line "father" or they are indicated from the words of the woman, then she needs to fill out a certificate in the form No25 in the registry office.
  2. This certificate must be accompanied by an application for granting the status of a single mother.
  3. These papers must be submitted to the department of social protection at the place of residence, or sent by mail, preferably with acknowledgment of receipt.

What benefits and allowances are provided to a single mother in 2017?

To clarify the size and types of material benefits, a woman needs to contact the Social Security department at the place of residence.

The amount and amount of benefits are set by regional authorities and depend on the following factors:

  • The number of children a single woman has;
  • Is the mother employed?
  • The average income of an incomplete family;

At the same time, the amount of material benefits for a single mother is not much different from payments for a complete family.

A single mother can count on the following types of material benefits:

  • Allowance for a woman registered with a medical institution before 12 weeks of pregnancy - 628.47 rubles.
  • One-time payment after the birth of the baby 16759 р.
  • Payment for the care of an infant up to one and a half years - 40% of the mother's average salary, at least 3277.45 rubles.
  • The maternity benefit is 100% of the mother's earnings from the 30th week of pregnancy to the 70th day after the birth. Calculated from wages.
  • Child benefit for a low-income family - regulated by local authorities.
  • If a woman is raising a child with a disability alone, then a monthly allowance in the amount of 6,000 rubles is assigned to her.

There are also a number of regional material benefits for single mothers. Their amount is established and regulated by local authorities.

To clarify their provision and size, a woman should contact the Social Security department at the place of residence.

Adoptive parents are entitled to receive all of the above benefits, since an adopted child is equated to a natural one.

Video: How single mothers survive:

The Russian Federation is a socially oriented state. Taking care of citizens is a priority task of the authorities. An extremely topical topic today is the issuance of benefits to single women with children. What are the benefits for a single mother in Russia? This article will provide a detailed answer to this question.

Single mother: who is this according to the law?

The number of divorces in the Russian Federation is only growing over time. You can guess and argue for a long time what is the reason for this. This may be an economically unstable position in the state, and, perhaps, an ordinary change of morals. Most broken families have children. As a rule, the court leaves the children with their mother. Today, a single mother is far from a rare occurrence. At the same time, by law, not all divorced women with a child have a similar status. Why is it so?

According to the current legislation, a divorce from a spouse does not automatically make a woman a "single mother". Only those women who gave birth to a single mother in Russia have a similar status - this is a person to whom the following factors can be attributed:

  • there is no joint application of both parents;
  • in the same statement in the column on paternity there is a dash;
  • the woman gave birth to a child earlier than 300 days after the divorce (but in this case, a recognition is required from the woman that her ex-husband is not the father of the baby);
  • a woman adopts a child without being married.

It is also worth considering that a woman is not capable of possessing, to which the following criteria apply:

  • her husband was deprived of parental rights;
  • her husband is dead;
  • the father of the baby is established, and his data is entered in the documents; at the same time, he himself is not the spouse of the woman who gave birth to the child;
  • for one reason or another, the mother does not receive alimony from the father of the child.

Thus, far from all single women with a child are able to have the legal status of a "single mother".

Rights of single mothers

Women who have the legal status of "single mothers" have a number of rights that should be outlined below. Russian law states the following:

  • The state monthly allowance for single mothers must be paid on time and in full, without delays or other problems. A woman should find out about the amount of money received from the department of social protection, located at the place of her registration.
  • In addition to the full state allowance, a single woman with a child has the right to receive payments of a regional nature. Such subsidies for single mothers should be paid on a regular basis.
  • A woman with the status in question has the right to arrange a child in some preschool institutions out of turn (but not in all!). Here it is worth noting the benefits for paying for the maintenance of a child in kindergarten.
  • Allowances, subsidies and various payments remain with the woman even when she marries. The entitlement to the benefits presented will only be lost when the new spouse adopts the child.
  • If a single mother is officially employed, then she has the right to leave at any time convenient for her.
  • A single woman with a child may not be required to work overtime without her own consent.
  • School meals, as well as a set of textbooks for the child of a single mother, will be free.
  • A single mother is entitled to certain benefits when purchasing certain medicines for her child; the child has the right to a free visit to the massage room at the local clinic.

These are far from all the rights that an unmarried woman with a child legally has. What should single mothers besides all of the above? This will be discussed further.

About the work schedule of a single mother

Regardless of where exactly an unmarried woman with a child works, the management of enterprises must adhere to the requirements of the Labor Code. What exactly does this document say about single mothers? If we are talking about the work schedule, then the following points should be highlighted:

  • An unmarried woman with a child under 5 years old is able to work at night (from 22 to 6 in the morning) only if she agrees to it herself, and if she has no health contraindications. The employer does not have the right to force a single mother to work night shifts (only if the work itself does not involve night service - for example, the profession of a night watchman).
  • If a woman has a child under the age of three years, then engaging her in business trips and overtime work is possible only with written consent.
  • A single mother with a child under 14 or a disabled child under 18 is able to apply for a part-time job.
  • A woman with a disabled child can claim four additional days off per month.
  • A woman raising a child under 14 can be provided with a two-week unpaid leave at any convenient time under a collective agreement.

The salary of a single mother (if we are not talking about benefits) cannot be increased just like that. A woman cannot legally qualify for a special salary or higher hourly pay just because she has a child.

Separately, it is worth talking about the dismissal procedure. A woman who is raising a child under 14, or a disabled child under 18, cannot be laid off. Exceptions can only be made in the following cases:

  • the organization is completely liquidated;
  • a woman periodically does not perform, or performs poorly her labor duties;
  • the woman committed a major immoral act;
  • the employee violated her duties (came intoxicated, committed theft, violated labor protection, divulged professional secrets, etc.);
  • the woman got a job on fictitious documents.

In case of illegal dismissal, a woman can be reinstated in her workplace or request compensation through the court.

Tax deduction

What is a tax deduction? Experts give the following wording - this is the established amount of income of workers, from which personal income tax is not levied. The tax deduction increases the amount of wages paid out.

Tax deductions are due to certain categories of citizens, including single mothers. The deduction is always standard and independent of the person's wealth. So, as of 2017, the following figures should be highlighted here:

  • 2,800 rubles for the first two children;
  • 6 thousand rubles for the third and any next child;
  • 24 thousand rubles for a child with a disability.

At the same time, personal income tax will begin to be levied in the event that a particular citizen receives more than 350 thousand per year (about 30 thousand per month). This rule also affects such a person's status as "single mother". The second child here, unfortunately, will not play any role. Depending on how much a single mother earns, the state of the tax deduction will depend.

Separately, it is worth talking about exactly how you can get it. All documents must be submitted at the place of work. An application is written, which will be provided by the employer; the following documents are attached to it:

  • a certificate from the housing office about accommodation;
  • a document from the registry office on the absence of a father;
  • mother's passport;
  • if necessary - a certificate of the child's disability or a certificate from an educational institution.

All deductions will be provided by the employer.

About sick leave

What should single mothers do when they receive sick leave? Oddly enough, nothing special. It should be noted right away that there are no special benefits for receiving a sick leave for single mothers. In this case, everything is exactly the same as in the case of married women; talk about any priorities and "lack of queues" will be nothing more than rumors. Nevertheless, it is still worth paying attention to this topic.

The Federal Law "On Compulsory Social Insurance", namely its sixth article, establishes the following rules for obtaining sick leave:

  • if the child is under 7 years old, then the entire treatment period should be no more than 60 days per year (for one specific child). If the disease is especially serious, then the sick leave period can be up to 90 days.
  • If the child is from 7 to 15 years old, then the sick leave period for the mother cannot be more than 15 days a year.
  • If the child is between 15 and 18 years old, the mother can take sick leave for a period not exceeding 3 days (may last up to one week).

Are single mothers entitled to hospital subsidies? The law mentions payments for outpatient treatment. So, single mothers in this case can be:

  • 100% of earnings with more than eight years of work experience;
  • 80% of the average salary with five to eight years of experience;
  • 60% of average earnings with less than five years of experience.

Thus, the question of what is due to single mothers when taking sick leave can be considered closed. The answer here is simple: practically nothing; the same rules apply here as for other persons.

Admission to kindergarten: what are the benefits for a single mother?

As you know, the activities of kindergartens in the Russian Federation are regulated at the municipal level. This means only one thing: the conditions and features of admitting children to such institutions can vary greatly depending on the region.

What are the benefits for a single mother when registering her child in a kindergarten? Until 2008, there was a legal recommendation in the country to accept children of single mothers without waiting in line. This provision was later removed. For some reason, some citizens, even ten years later, are sure that uniform benefits still exist here. This, of course, is not true. As of 2017, unfortunately, there are no concessions for single mothers in this area. Of course, some kindergartens can still accept groups of people without a queue. This is done, as a rule, for the purpose of self-advertising or increasing the rating.

In which cities do kindergartens take children from incomplete families out of turn? Of course, the data may change; but for 2017 it is Moscow (according to order No. 1310), Yekaterinburg, Angarsk, the Irkutsk region and some other regions.

What conclusion can be drawn here? Kindergartens today do not operate according to uniform rules. Even a "low-income single mother with a disability" will not be able to claim any benefits if they are not established in the region. Single mothers are also not entitled to compensation for kindergarten - all this has long been a thing of the past. There can be only one way out: to find out if admission benefits are available in a particular area, in a particular kindergarten.

Getting a home as a single mother

Are single mothers entitled to cheap or even free housing? Unfortunately, it is not possible to give a definite answer here. It’s worth starting with the most important thing: there are no special benefits and rules for obtaining housing for single mothers in Russia. There is an opportunity to stand in line for an apartment, to participate in state subsidy programs - but no more. The entire procedure for obtaining housing will take place in the same way as with ordinary, complete families.

At the moment, the country has a "Young Family" program, according to which from 2015 to 2020 the state will pay citizens with children about 35% of the total cost of purchased housing. Program details, as usual, will depend on the region.

What is due to single mothers under the presented program? Everything is the same as for ordinary families. To obtain housing under the terms of the "Young Family" you must:

  • have Russian citizenship;
  • prove the absence of other housing;
  • contact the district administration at the place of residence;
  • stand in the general housing queue.

If a family needs to improve their living conditions, the state will take into account the following factors:

  • the area of ​​this residential premises is below regional standards;
  • living in a dwelling does not meet sanitary and hygienic standards;
  • the family lives in a communal apartment;
  • there is a sick person in the family, living next to whom can be dangerous to health.

A woman's income should also be taken into account separately. So, depending on how much a single mother receives, the state program will be calculated.

Additional payments

Decree of the Moscow Government No. 816-PP provides for the regular payment of benefits to single mothers from the city budget. So, a single woman with a child is entitled to receive the following subsidies:

  • 300 rubles per month for children under 16;
  • 675 rubles per month is due to mothers, as well as parents whose former spouses do not pay alimony for children under three years old;
  • 6 thousand rubles each month is due to a single mother or father whose child is under 18 and is a disabled person of 1 or 2 groups. If such a child is employed, the payments stop.

Separately, it is worth talking about payments to women whose income is below the subsistence level. The law reads as follows:

  • the amount of the allowance for a single mother with a child under 16 years of age should be 750 rubles per month;
  • 2,500 rubles is due to single mothers whose children have not reached the age of 1.5 years, or whose age is from 3 to 18 years;
  • 4,500 rubles is paid to single mothers whose children are between 1.5 and 3 years old.

In order for each of the payments presented to be received on time and in full, every three months you will have to submit a certificate of income to the social security authorities. The optimal period for submitting such an application will be one in which maternity payments do not fall into the total income.

Required Documentation

How can a single mother confirm her status? What documents must be collected for this? It is immediately worth noting that different types of documentation will be needed for various kinds of situations. It all depends on what kind of subsidies and benefits a single woman with a child wants to receive.

The first and most important thing a single mother should have is a child's birth certificate with a dash in the column about the father. Only with the help of this document will a woman be able to confirm her status as a single mother. If the certificate still contains information about the biological father, but according to the mother, then you will have to obtain a special form No. 25. As a rule, they apply for it at the registry office. It will also need to be filled in. Having received a certificate of assignment of the status of "single mother", the woman takes it to the district department of urban social protection.

What documents must a mother collect to receive a monthly child benefit? The law in this case regulates the following types of documentation:

  • mother's passport;
  • application for the status of "single mother";
  • birth certificate of the child;
  • a stamp in the mother's passport confirming the child's citizenship;
  • a certificate from the housing office on the composition of the family (it is necessary to confirm that the mother really lives with the child);
  • if necessary - form No. 25 from the registry office;
  • mother's income statement (paper from the employment service, or an ordinary work book).

Naturally, each of the submitted documents must be photocopied and attached to the main package.

Outcome

It is worth summing up all of the above, briefly illustrating all the main types of benefits for single mothers. If we are talking about social benefits, then it is worth mentioning:

  • dowry sets for a newborn child;
  • compensation for the price of children's food products (if the child is under three years old);
  • benefits in kind for a child under three years of age;
  • the opportunity not to pay the housing office for garbage collection and cleaning if the mother has a child under one and a half years old;
  • free medicines for a child under three years of age.

If we are talking about labor benefits, then it is worth highlighting:

  • the inability to fire a single mother during layoffs;
  • benefits for a single mother in case of liquidation of an organization;
  • full payment of sick leave if the employee's child is under seven years old;
  • the right to small additional holidays;
  • the right to establish part-time work (if the child is under 14 years old);
  • the inability to refuse a single mother when applying for a job (otherwise, the reason for the refusal must be described in detail and proven).

Of course, there are other benefits as well. However, they all depend on the region and type of enterprise (educational, preschool, cultural, etc.).

Unfortunately, a single mother is a common occurrence both in modern Russia and throughout the world. There are many reasons for a woman to raise a child alone, but the result is the same: mother and child need help. Assistance to single mothers from the state is expressed as follows: additional child allowances and payments, benefits in labor and tax legislation, a preferential queue when applying to a kindergarten, and much more. You will learn more about all the rights, benefits and benefits in 2019 for single mothers in this article.

single mother status 2019

The legal definition of the status of a single mother reads as follows: "A single mother is a woman whose child does not have a father's name on the birth certificate." It would seem that this formulation explains a lot, but, in fact, it does not explain anything. After all, we are talking about a morally, and often socially disadvantaged person who is responsible for the maintenance and upbringing of a child - a growing citizen of our state.

single mother Not recognized by single mothers

A woman who has given birth to and is raising a child (children) out of wedlock, if the child's paternity has not been properly established:

  • there is no joint statement of parents to the registry office about paternity
  • no court order to establish paternity

A woman who gave birth to a child within 300 days after the dissolution of the marriage, its recognition as invalid or from the moment of the death of the spouse. In this case, the spouse (ex-spouse) is recognized as the father of the child (part 2 of article 48 of the Family Code) and the registry office will register the child for the spouse (ex-spouse), even if he is not the biological father of the baby.
A woman who, while not married, adopted a foster child. An unmarried woman raising a child whose paternity has been established voluntarily or by court order, even if the man does not live with her.

Payments and benefits for single mothers 2019

First of all, it is worth noting that all parents, including single mothers, are eligible for federal payments and childbirth benefits.

How much do single mothers earn? Additional benefits are established by regional legislation and for an exhaustive list of payments and benefits, you should contact the district branch of the center for social protection of the population. Consider payments on the example of Moscow.

Additional payments to single mothers in Moscow

Benefits paid in 2019 to single mothers at the expense of the city budget are provided for by Decree of the Government of Moscow dated October 31, 2017 No. 805-PP. However, the ruling states that families with incomes below the subsistence minimum can count on some payments.

A single mother in Moscow is entitled to the following payments, regardless of family income:

  • Monthly compensation payment due to the increase in the cost of living to single mothers (fathers) for children under the age of 16 (students under 18) - 750 rubles. for those receiving a monthly allowance for a child, 300 rubles. - for those who do not receive such benefits.
  • Monthly compensation payment to compensate for the increase in the cost of food for single mothers, as well as families in which a parent avoids paying child support, for children under 3 years old - 675 rubles.
  • The monthly compensation payment to a single mother (father) caring for a child with a disabled person of group I or II up to 18 years old (up to 23 years old for a disabled person from childhood) is paid only if the child does not work, and amounts to 12 000 rubles

Payments to single mothers if the income is below the subsistence level:

  • from 0 to 3 years - 15 000 rubles.
  • Monthly allowance for single mothers for children aged from 3 to 18 years old - 6,000 rubles.

In the department of social protection, you must provide a certificate of income for the last 3 months. The optimal period for applying for these benefits is the one in which maternity payments do not fall into income.

labor benefits

Speaking about labor benefits for single mothers, the following points should be noted:

  • In the event of a reduction in staff at the enterprise, a single mother cannot be dismissed if she supports a child whose age has not reached 14 years. Dismissal is illegal when the management of the enterprise changes and even when such an employee does not correspond to the position held. However, precedents in which a single mother was fired due to regular serious disciplinary offenses are recorded.
  • In addition, a single mother, in the event of a reduction due to the liquidation of the enterprise, can count on the provision of another job. By the way, the responsibility for subsequent employment lies directly with the administration of the enterprise where the reductions were carried out.
  • A single mother, like any other mother, is given an allowance if she cares for a sick child. The allowance paid for inpatient treatment is calculated depending on the length of service. Outpatient treatment involves the payment of a single mother's allowance for the first 10 days in full and in the amount of 50% of wages for the rest of the time.
  • Caring for a sick child under 7 years of age provides for the payment of a sick leave without any restrictions. If the child is older than 7 years, you can expect to pay 15 days of sick leave.
  • A single mother has the right to receive leave at her own expense at any convenient time for up to 14 days.
  • Single mothers with a child under 5 years of age cannot be involved in overtime work, night work, holidays or weekends.
  • The mother of a child under 14 years of age (including single parents) has the right to a part-time job, established at her own request.
  • In addition to the above, single mothers can count on employment benefits, since a potential employer does not have the right to refuse employment because of the presence of children. In case of refusal to hire, the administration of the enterprise must provide a clearly formulated motivation for the refusal.

Single parent child tax credit

A single mother is entitled to receive a double tax deduction for the cost of maintaining each of her children up to the age of 18. If a child over 18 years of age is a university student, the double tax deduction will be maintained until the age of 24. This means that a certain amount of income will not be subject to income tax, namely 1,400 rubles for the first and second child and 3,000 for the third and subsequent ones.

What benefits cover the rest of the life of single mothers?

  • the right to receive free sets of baby clothes for a newborn child;
  • the right to a temporary waiver of payment for the removal of solid food waste and for cleaning the territory of an apartment building if the child is under 1.5 years old;
  • the right to receive free meals in the dairy kitchen for a child under 2 years old;
  • the right to purchase a number of medicines at a reduced cost with a discount of up to 50%;

  • and finally, every year the children of single mothers can expect to receive a sanatorium voucher.

Housing for single mothers

The target program “Affordable housing for young families” should be especially noted. Under this program, mothers under the age of 35 may qualify for part of the cost of housing. Single women who decide to take out a mortgage also have the opportunity to acquire housing. Read about how realistic this is in our detailed material.

** If a child falls into more than one category, only one monthly allowance is awarded to cover rising costs of living.

3. How do I apply for a food allowance?

The monthly compensation payment to compensate for the increase in the cost of food for certain categories of citizens is paid for children:

  • single mothers (fathers);
  • military personnel undergoing military service on conscription;
  • from families in which one of the parents evades the payment of alimony;
  • from large families;
  • from student families;
  • who are disabled*.

A parent, adoptive parent, stepfather or stepmother (for large families), a guardian or trustee of a child can issue a payment. Both the legal representative of the child and the child for whom the payment is made must live together and have permanent registration in Moscow. Citizenship doesn't matter.

Paid for each child from the month of his birth until he reaches 3 years of age, provided that the application for the purpose of the payment was submitted no later than 6 months from the month in which the child was born.
