Receipt of a lump sum payment by a child

Due to a separately adopted law, families with two or more children, subject to the birth of one during the specified period, have the opportunity to receive 25,000 from maternity capital in 2018 in cash.

Features of the adopted law

The law on 25,000 from maternity capital was adopted in 2018 on June 8. After the standard procedure of approval by the Federation Council (June 15) and signature by the President, it was posted on the legal information website. This implies publication in official sources, which guarantees its entry into force on June 23.


Additional provision

Simultaneously with the approval procedure, the Ministry of Social Protection published additional provisions on the government services website regulating the procedure for interaction of structures with citizens regarding maternity capital (MC):

  • Rules for filling out and submitting an application;
  • List of required documents.
  • Principles of transfer of funds by Pension funds.

Conditions for registration of maternity capital

A completely logical question, whether it is possible to withdraw 25,000 from maternity capital in view of the new law, exists. As you know, a certificate is always issued taking into account certain principles:

  • The appearance of a second or subsequent newborn (adopted) in the family since 2007.
  • It is not possible to withdraw funds in cash.
  • It is permissible to use resources to improve conditions, taking into account the interests of children: mortgage for housing, education for children, transfer to savings towards a pension for the mother.
  • The request occurs after the day of birth three years later with some exceptions (mortgage).

Receiving cash legally

So, it is impossible to receive all maternity capital in cash, but a one-time payment of 25,000 rubles is allowed this year. This is due to a number of reasons.

As the President explained, such assistance to couples with children will help somewhat alleviate the difficult financial situation caused by the consequences of the crisis.

Increasing the amount from 20 to 25 thousand rubles

Since the country is experiencing a decrease in income, an increase in inflation and unemployment, maternity capital (payment of 25,000) in 2018 makes it possible to provide some social protection to families and reduces the number of citizens classified as poor. A similar type of law existed last year, but provided for the cashing out of 20 thousand rubles.

Procedure for applying for payment

The law describes the rules for issuing 25,000 from maternity capital according to the following criteria:

  • Owners of certificates received before September 30, 2018 inclusive are entitled to cash.
  • The dates of birth of children do not matter.
  • The time period required to wait to claim funds under the MK (the child turns 3 years old) is not taken into account in this situation.
  • If the account balance is less than the specified amount, it is permissible to receive the entire balance.
  • Citizens living outside the country are not able to cash out this part of the MK. When deciding whether in 2018 it is possible to receive a payment of 25,000 from maternity capital to persons living abroad, the Government proceeded from the need to support families who find themselves in the crisis of our country. And citizens living in other countries do not feel any negative impact from it.
  • Owners who have already withdrawn 20 thousand rubles according to the law of last year have equal rights with other persons.

You can officially withdraw 25,000 from maternity capital in 2018

Thus, all families, regardless of the degree of need and the amount of funds already used, are in an equal situation and can receive 25,000 from maternity capital in 2018. Those who became the parents of a child who gives the right to issue a personalized paper in the current period also received this right. At the same time, they can simultaneously submit two applications at once: for the issuance of a certificate and for cashing out this amount.

When can you withdraw money?

The law also prescribes a cut-off date for withdrawing 25,000 from maternity capital – November 30, 2017. Citizens have less than six months to contact the authorities. Let us remind you that last time 20 thousand rubles in cash could be issued for a whole year, which allowed almost everyone to complete the procedure - about 70%. In the current period, due to the shortening of the period, some problems are expected. According to statistics from the past period, about 2 million families may apply for payment, which will most likely be accompanied by queues and a slowdown in the work of pension funds, because on average there will be up to 20 thousand requests per day across the country.

Where to contact

In order to relieve some of the burden on the work of Pension Funds, the law defines several options for registration. A one-time payment of 25,000 from maternity capital in 2018 is possible through the following requests:

  • Territorial Pension Fund.
  • Centers providing state and municipal services.
  • Through post offices, taking into account confirmation of receipt and dispatch.
  • On the PF website through the Personal Account service.
  • Through the State Services portal.

The procedure for getting 25,000 from maternity capital in person and remotely is practically the same. The owner of the MK will need the same package of documents (only in one case these are photocopies, and in the other - scanned ones). Applications are not different at all and are allowed to be filled out in printed form using a PC or handwritten directly to the PF.

Application through State Services and Pension Fund

Within such a limited framework, the role of remote services becomes very significant. Today, citizens rarely resort to such resources due to mistrust and give priority to personal visits to the PF. Because of this, the time for approving applications and accepting applicants is slowing down. Therefore, experts advise turning to services for electronic submission of applications to the Pension Fund and the State Services portal in order to relieve the workload of the Pension Fund. This will allow everyone to receive a timely response.


It's worth remembering the main dates Until the end of the year, the law is in force and maternity capital is issued (25,000). You can apply for the money until November 30th.

If a baby was born this year, you can apply for a certificate only until September 30.

  • The Pension Fund has one month to consider the application. Even when transferring papers for 25,000 maternity capital in the last days (before November 30), the structure still has until December 31 to respond, i.e. until the end of the payment law. The answer can be one of two: satisfy the request, refuse.
  • If the answer is positive, the transfer to the applicant’s account occurs within a month.
  • Having issued a refusal, the Pension Fund is obliged to send a notification within 5 days after the decision is made to the citizen’s postal address. If the request was made through electronic portals, the response will be sent by e-mail.

As you can see, withdrawing 25,000 from maternity capital will require maximum 2 months, which does not contradict the procedure and law of last year.

Results

So, thanks to the recently published law, it became possible to cash out 25,000 from maternity capital in 2018. It is currently not known exactly when the application can be received and sent. All rules for interaction with applicants are expected to be approved by July 1. All owners who have sufficient funds have the right to money

Activities for social support of family citizens who have adopted or given birth to a second child provide for the possibility of obtaining an MSK certificate. To improve the standard of living of this category of citizens, in recent years it has been allowed to withdraw 25 thousand from maternity capital for the personal needs of the family.

Is it possible to receive part of maternity capital at present, and is it possible to receive 25 thousand from maternity capital in 2019-2020? The answer to these questions can be found in the presented material.

Legal grounds for disposing of MSC funds

Before you find out what documents are needed to receive 25 thousand from maternity capital, and whether this benefit applies to the 2019-2020 year, it is necessary to establish possible directions for using the MSK certificate.

Such directions are fixed in Art. 7 of Federal Law No. 256-FZ:

  • acquisition of residential real estate using own funds or under a loan agreement;
  • repair or reconstruction of the family’s own home;
  • educational process of children;
  • increasing the funded part of the child’s mother’s pension;
  • acquisition of special means for adaptation of children with disabilities;
  • monthly payments for the 2nd child until he turns 1.5 years old.


Receiving 25 thousand rubles. from maternity capital is not included in this list. Does this mean that it is no longer possible to cash out funds for the family's personal needs?

To do this, it is necessary to determine how the decision on such payment is approved.

How to cash out 25,000 from matkapital

As part of the general directions for using the MSK certificate, the payment of 25,000 rubles from the funds that constitute maternity capital is not provided.

The decision on such payment was made by adopting an independent regulatory legal act; in 2016, such a document was Federal Law No. 181-FZ.

Note! A one-time payment of 25,000 rubles from maternity capital every year was one-time and exceptional in nature. There was no provision for automatic extension of this social support measure.

The opportunity to receive 25,000 rubles from the amount of maternity capital always acts as an anti-crisis measure that allows you to maintain the level of material support for a family with children.

One-time payment on maternity capital

Is it possible to get 25 thousand for maternity capital in 2019-2020? Have the terms of this payment changed, and what regulatory act provides for this?

News regarding the adoption of the law on a one-time payment from maternity capital gave reason to expect that this measure of social support may be available in 2019-2020.

Also during this period, the State Duma of the Russian Federation was considering a bill providing for a one-time payment of a portion of maternity capital funds in the amount of 50,000 rubles in 2019-2020. But it was never approved.

By analogy with previous years, in order to receive a one-time benefit in 2019-2020, citizens will need to complete the following steps:

  • issue an MSC certificate at the Pension Fund of Russia after the birth of the second child (if this document has not been issued earlier);
  • send an application form for payment of a sum of money according to one of the options specified in the regulatory legal acts;
  • submit simultaneously with the application other documents confirming the right to a one-time benefit from the federal budget.

Since at the moment this regulatory act has not been officially adopted, the right to receive a one-time payment for personal needs did not arise in 2019.

Considering that in previous years similar laws were adopted closer to the middle of the calendar year, holders of the MSK certificate can only wait for news about the consideration of the bill in the State Duma of the Russian Federation.

How will the lump sum payment be made?


The procedure for exercising the right to receive such payments does not change annually and generally coincides with the previously adopted rules. Therefore, it is possible to establish general principles for applying for payment using the example of those who received 25,000 from maternity capital in 2016.

The issuance of funds was carried out within the framework of the implementation of the norms of Federal Law No. 181-FZ.

Its main features included:

  • the right to payment was acquired by a family whose second child was born or adopted before September 30, 2016;
  • citizens who managed to submit an application before November 30, 2016 had the opportunity to receive a one-time benefit in the amount of 25,000 rubles;
  • it was possible to withdraw 25,000 from maternity capital if citizens did not use the full amount of MSC.

Recipients of the specified amount in previous years will be able to become the owners of the payment in 2019-2020, if such a decision is made by law.

Citizens had the right to choose the most convenient option, but had to meet the deadline for applying - no later than November 30.

If they have verification, citizens need to perform the following actions on the government services portal:

  • go to the pension department page and study in detail the instructions for filling out the application;
  • fill out the proposed form through your personal account, indicating personal data and SNILS number;
  • confirm filling out the form.

An application sent through the public services portal will be checked by the Pension Fund on a general basis; the personal presence of the certificate holder will not be required.

Attention! Transfer of funds is carried out in non-cash form using the details that citizens indicate when filling out the application form.

Who was entitled to payment


Was it possible to receive 25 thousand again from the federal budget, or does the law establish a one-time principle for citizens to apply? A one-time payment of 25,000 rubles from maternity capital will be paid even to citizens who previously received this measure of social support.

In this part, there were no changes compared to payments in 2015 and 2016; the law did not limit the right to reapply.

The composition of persons applying for these benefits also did not change:

  • a woman who has a valid MSK certificate and has not lost the right to use state support measures;
  • father or adoptive parent of minor children if their mother has lost her right to MSC;
  • legal representative of minor children if both parents have lost the right to state support measures.
Important! The verification of the right to MSC was carried out by Pension Fund employees in the general manner, through requests to law enforcement agencies and judicial institutions.

The refusal of the Pension Fund authorities to receive benefits could follow if the woman was prosecuted for crimes against the child’s person, or was officially deprived of parental rights in court.


  • to three pre-existing maternity capital fourth added- now money can also be sent using a certificate regardless of the time that has passed since their birth or adoption, that is;
  • the provision on - its size has not changed for 2016 and still amounts to .

In addition, taking into account the completion of last year’s anti-crisis plan for 2016-2017, the Government decided to re-provide a one-time payment from maternity capital.

Changes made to the program mat. capital are quite contradictory. The issuance of certificates will continue after 2016, but their purchasing power may decrease significantly now!

The further fate of the state program for the payment of maternal (family) capital, which worries many Russian families, was determined in December 2015, when V. Putin ordered extend the program for another 2 years.

Federal Law No. 433-FZ of December 30, 2015 made appropriate changes to the program - now it applies to all families who have given birth to or adopted a second, third or subsequent child until December 31, 2018 inclusive!

Certificate size and indexing

During the entire period of the program, the amount of payments. In 2007, maternity capital was only 250,000 rub., and the amount provided increased by 81% of the base amount - up to RUB 453,026

However, in 2016, due to the difficult economic situation, the Russian Government decided not to carry out the next indexation of the amount under the certificate. It is expected that next time the payment amount will be increased as usual. from January 1, 2017.

Now the option of another increase in the amount of mat is being discussed. capital by 6% to 480 thousand rubles, however, in any case, the Government will make a decision at the end of the year depending on world oil prices and the prospects for the end of the domestic Russian economic crisis).

News and changes for 2016

Changes in 2016 may affect not only the abolition of payment indexation, but also the scope of its application. Let us recall that before this the list of possible directions remained unchanged for a long time (almost 9 years):

A further increase in the size of the benefit and an expansion of the list of areas for its use in the regions in 2016 largely depends on the economic situation in the country as a whole and on the willingness of local authorities to continue making efforts to stimulate the birth rate and support motherhood and childhood.

Conclusion

The need to continue the program is not in doubt among potential recipients of maternity capital, nor among State Duma deputies, nor among government members.

By the end of 2018, all obligations undertaken by the government to support families with children will be fulfilled, but the size of the certificate will most likely continue to be indexed at a slow pace or not increase at all.

Today, maternity capital is rightfully considered a key financial assistance from the government of the Russian Federation.

Over the past 5 years, the demographic situation in the country has been catastrophically deteriorating. This is due to the difficult situation of the country's economy, and as a result, the lack of money necessary to raise a child.

That is why the maternity capital program was created, which is aimed at helping young families raise their first child.

According to studies, more than 97% of young families use maternity capital to purchase housing. In addition, the latest changes that have been made allow the use of maternity capital, in addition to spending on a child, only for the purchase of housing. Everything else is strictly prohibited.

But, despite this, by the end of the year, several more changes will be made that will allow it to be used for medical treatment, as well as purchasing a car for the family.

Latest changes and news in this matter

As for the latest news related to maternity capital, there have been some changes in the legislation on the conditions for their registration.

From the beginning of 2016, this capital can only be used to improve living conditions. This is primarily due to the fact that today many young families do not have their own corner.

In November 2015, the President of the Russian Federation signed a law that implies additional government support measures for families with children. This law was adopted unanimously at all levels of government.

It states that disabled children have every right to free purchase of necessary medical equipment, the rehabilitation process with which will help to quickly restore injuries received in 1 year of life or congenital.

However, the rehabilitation program has not yet been approved by the Ministry of Health and therefore the Medical and Social Commission cannot make any decisions. This law will allow any product or service in all regions of the country intended for rehabilitation to be provided free of charge.

According to the government, every family will be able to fully experience all the benefits of this bill in October of this year.

In addition, the law provides for the possibility of using maternity capital received from the first child for the second.

An example of this is a simple situation. The mother gave birth to a second child, who was recognized as disabled. If she has a second child, in particular maternity capital, she has the right to spend all the money on a disabled child. It is worth keeping in mind that all financial expenses of maternity capital from the second child will be compensated by the state in full.

Regarding the question indexing, then this is not planned by the government this year. According to the adopted resolution, indexation will be carried out in 2017, after which the amount of maternity capital will be about 507,000 rubles.

According to Olga Golodets, the indexation of the lump sum payment is planned for the second half of 2016. This is primarily due to the goal of improving the quality of life due to the unstable economic situation. But it is unknown when exactly this process will take place in the government.

The procedure and rules for providing a lump sum payment from maternity capital are discussed in the following video:

It will be possible to receive a lump sum payment from the total amount of maternity capital this year. This is a one-time measure to support a family with children. In 2016, its volume will be 20,000 rubles, which can be obtained by submitting an application to the Pension Fund no later than March 31.

Features of the use of maternity capital

The family where the second or subsequent children were born has the right to contact the local Pension Fund of Russia at any time with an application for the issuance of a certificate for maternity capital. This year its amount will be 475,000 rubles. It is not subject to any taxes.

Important! Every year the remaining amount in the maternity capital account is indexed. In this case, the certificate holder does not need to replace it.

The family acquires the opportunity to use the entire amount of capital only after the child for whom it was issued reaches three years of age. An application for the transfer of funds is submitted to the local Pension Fund of Russia. Along with it, an identification document of the certificate holder is presented. Maternity funds are transferred to the Pension Fund exclusively by bank transfer. The transfer is made exclusively to an account in a Russian credit institution. Any are illegal.

Important! If you are offered to give money towards maternity capital, be vigilant. Such offers are often made by scammers. In addition, as noted above, such actions can lead to serious consequences, since they contradict current legislation. The owner of the certificate in such a situation is recognized as an accomplice to the crime and bears full responsibility for the misuse of public funds.

If the certificate has been lost, its holder can contact the Pension Fund of Russia to obtain a duplicate.

Now the government of the Russian Federation is considering the possibility of expanding the intended purpose of maternity capital. For example, for its use for the treatment of children with disabilities or. These proposals aroused great interest among the population and received a lot of both positive and negative feedback from experts. The issue of limiting the use of this program is also being considered. A proposal was made to extend it only to families with average and low incomes, since they are in greater need of government support.

The Government of the Russian Federation decided to provide the opportunity to receive part of the funds from maternal money to maintain the financial condition of families with children. These funds have no intended purpose. In 2016, this measure will continue to be implemented according to the proven scheme of 2009-2010.

What is a lump sum payment and how to use it?

Over the past few years, families with children have been given the opportunity to receive a one-time payment from the amount of maternal money. Its size was previously 12,000 rubles. This year, the subsidy amount was set at 20,000 rubles. This is the amount that a certificate holder who has not spent it before 2016 can count on. If the balance on it is less, the actual remaining funds will be issued. This right applies only to those who are registered and reside in the Russian Federation. Thus, if a Russian citizen permanently lives in another state, he will not be able to receive this amount.

Important! 20,000 rubles is the maximum subsidy amount. That is, parents, if necessary, can apply for payment of a smaller amount. The right to the remainder remains with the family and can be used at a later date.

The process of receiving a subsidy combines several stages:

  1. Submitting a corresponding application to the Pension Fund or MFC at the place of registration of the certificate holder.
  2. Carrying out the application approval procedure.
  3. After receiving consent to pay a one-time subsidy, the money is transferred to the bank account specified in the application within a period of no more than 2 months.
  4. The amount given to the family is deducted from the capital.

Unlike the entire amount of maternal benefits, a subsidy from them in the form of a lump sum payment can be used for any family needs without any restrictions. This subsidy is a measure of social support provided by the state to the family. It has acquired particular relevance due to economic instability in the country. Please note that families in which the child for whom the certificate was issued is under 3 years of age can also receive this amount.

Receipt of a lump sum payment by a child

In some situations, the child for whom the certificate was issued also gains the opportunity to receive an appropriate payment from maternal funds. To do this, he must reach the age of majority or acquire full legal capacity immediately before December 31, 2015.

This rule applies if parents:

  • died or declared so;
  • deprived of parental rights in relation to the child for whose birth a certificate was received and the opportunity to use this measure of state support;
  • intentionally committed against him a crime against the person.

Receiving this subsidy is also possible when the adoption was canceled in accordance with the established procedure. These rules apply only if the parents have not previously used their right to a lump sum payment or have not completely used up their maternity funds.

When submitting an application to the local Pension Fund or MFC, you should also submit a document confirming the occurrence of one of the above cases: a death certificate, a court decision, or others.

To receive a one-time cash payment, the certificate holder should contact the Pension Fund no later than March 31, 2016. The opportunity to use part of the maternal funds is given to parents, regardless of when the child was born. The Government of the Russian Federation has set a deadline by which all applications from families must be considered and money transferred - until June 1, 2016.
