How much is the increase in pension for 2 children. Pension supplement for minor children to pensioners

Latest news - who is entitled to co-payments in 2017. Women of retirement age all over Russia were alarmed: is it really possible to get a supplement to the pension for two children?

Pension supplement for children born during the Soviet era before 1990 - who is entitled to the increase?

In 2017, everyone is hearing about this allowance, and this is due to the widely covered topic of pensions in the media. Lump sum payments, freezing, indexation of pensions - all this is massively discussed, and of course, no one wants to miss the opportunity to increase their pension. Even before studying this issue, one thing is clear - the allowance is due to women who gave birth to two children before 1990. However, this is not entirely true, in any case, there are more nuances here than it might seem at first glance.

all women who took parental leave in the USSR are entitled to a supplement to the pension for children;
no matter how many children are two or less. The widespread misconception about the extra payment for two children is unfounded and most likely has a reference to the current maternal capital;
the allowance is due not only to women - the full list of persons who are entitled to recount can be found on the website of the Russian Pension Fund;
talk about the recalculation of pensions is valid only for pensioners who have made payments before 2015.

All of the above points are officially confirmed by the Pension Fund, and in order to understand why the recalculation is possible only in these cases, one should study, why "suddenly" the state began to pay extra for children from the USSR?

The recalculation of the pension in 2017 is based on periods unaccounted for in seniority - in this case, it is a leave to care for a child (children). These periods are called non-insurance periods. Until 2015, the periods of the decree were not taken into account in the length of service, but with the approval of a new system for calculating pensions - according to points, these periods began to be taken into account. That is, a woman who retired before 2015 can declare her rights to these points for a year and a half (parental leave time) or more, depending on the number of children.

Methods for recalculation for children born in the USSR before 1990 - how to get a recount?

There is only one way to officially recalculate the pensions of citizens, and that is by applying to the Pension Fund office at the place of residence. To do this, in addition to identity documents, you must provide evidence of non-insurance periods during work. This is a child's birth certificate or his passport. Points for the period of the decree will be multiplied by a coefficient, according to the formula and converted into money, which will become an increase in pension in 2017.

By the way, this opportunity could be used exactly since 2015.

The above explanations are often found in the media and raise more questions than answers. The editors of the "Southern Federal" also asked the PFR office for the Rostov region for a comment, and this is what they answered. Here is the comment of the press service:
“We are not talking about additional payments or additional payments to the pension, but only about the possibility of recalculating pensions and only if it is beneficial. If a woman is a pensioner, retired before January 1, 2015 and was on parental leave (it does not matter when they were born, before 1990 or after), then she has the right to apply to the Pension Fund with an application ( or submit an application electronically through the "Personal Account" on the PFR website) to recalculate the insurance pension, taking into account the available "non-insurance" periods (these include the period of caring for children up to 1.5 years old (a total of 6 years for three children).

Here are the maximum possible amounts for increasing the size of the pension, taking into account the "non-insurance" periods in accordance with the pension legislation.

COST OF ONE PENSION POINT
FROM APRIL 1, 2017 INSTALLED AT THE SIZE OF 78.58 RUB.

FIRST CHILD CARE
For one year of care, 1.8 points \u003d 141.44 rubles.
For a year and a half of care, 1.8 + 0.9 \u003d 2.7 points \u003d 212.17 rubles.

SECOND CHILD CARE
For one year of care 3.6 points \u003d 282.89 rubles.
For a year and a half of care 3.6 + 1.8 \u003d 5.4 points \u003d 424.33 rubles.

CARE OF A THIRD OR FOURTH CHILD
For one year of care, 5.4 points \u003d 424.33 rubles.
For a year and a half of care, 5.4 + 2.7 \u003d 8.1 points \u003d 636.5 rubles.

Such amounts of an increase in the size of the pension are accrued in the event that during the period of caring for a child up to 1.5 years, the parent did not carry out labor activities.
If the parent was in an employment relationship until the child is 1.5 years old, then the amount of the insurance pension can be recalculated and these periods of work can be replaced by the period of caring for the child / children. However, those periods of work that will be replaced by periods of childcare will be excluded from the seniority.At the same time, if the size of the pension when replacing the working period with a non-insurance one becomes less, then there will be no recalculation to the side disadvantageous for the pensioner.

Please note that an application for recalculation can be submitted at any time, there are no time limits. The recalculation is made from the 1st day of the month following the month in which the application for recalculation was submitted. "

The current legislation provides pension supplement for children born before 1990... It is calculated by accounting for non-insurance periods in the form of pension ratios. Let's consider in more detail in the article and how you can get it.

General information

It is worth saying that information about d pension allowances for women for childrengave rise to many myths. However, they were all dispelled after the publication of the FIU explanations. To understand the peculiarities of the application of innovations, let us turn to the law.

The addition to the pension for children is stated in the Federal Law No. 400. According to its provisions, pensioners who have so-called non-insurance periods can count on an additional payment. These include, in particular, the time during which childcare was provided for children under 1.5 years of age.

Born before 1990 is credited by converting these periods into. Annually the value of these points is indexed. For 2017, one coefficient is equal to 78.58 rubles.

Until 2015, these non-insurance periods were not taken into account. Accordingly, they did not affect the amount of pension provision established for a woman.

Nuances

Since the addition to the pension for children is calculated according to the new rules, it is necessary to assess all possible risks. The fact is that the insurance record of the pensioner will be reduced for the non-insurance periods converted into coefficients. Accordingly, this can negatively affect the already existing pension provision.

However, it should be said that in certain situations to obtain supplements to the pension for children for women you will have to completely abandon the already installed security. This may entail a significant change in the order of accrual. It is important to understand that when refusing supplements to the pension for children you cannot return to the previously established calculation procedure.

As mentioned above, the amount of the copay can vary considerably. To determine the amount of the allowance, PFR employees will have to raise the pension business and carry out rather laborious work on the calculation. No guarantees that everything who is entitled to an addition to the pension for childrenwill receive a larger amount than before. As statistics show, about 20-30% of those who applied are charged a surcharge.

The moment of retirement

He is the determining criterion for the appointment supplements to the pension for children... It is advisable to apply to the FIU only for those women who went on a well-deserved rest before January 2015. After this date, the FIU employees have already calculated both options for each pensioner (with and without non-insurance periods) and established the most profitable method of providing. Accordingly, it makes no sense for these persons to write an application for supplement to the pension for children.

Determinant factors

Apply for supplement to children's pension can women if:

During the non-insurance periods, they were not employed at all. That is, in fact, there was a break in professional activity. This is possible, for example, if the birth of a child occurred during the period of study at an institute, technical school, etc.
At the time of birth and caring for a minor, the woman was working, but replacing leave with pension coefficients would be more profitable for her.

The latter in practice is common in situations where:

A woman has two or more children. The more children, the more points. Accordingly, the addition to the pension for two children can compensate for the reduction in the length of the insurance period. It should be borne in mind that the legislation sets restrictions. No more than four children can get the supplement.
When a woman was assigned a pension, the earnings paid before 2002 (if during this period there was parental leave) did not exceed its average size in the country or did not exceed, but not more than 20%. Simply put, the woman at the place of her employment had a small salary at the time of the birth of the child.

Usually, due to the above circumstances, the pension provision until January 1, 2015 was assigned in an insignificant amount. As a rule, payments did not exceed the subsistence minimum (subsistence minimum). In most regions, such pensioners as of 2017 receive no more than 10-11 thousand rubles.

If these circumstances took place, and the pensioner has two or three children, then, of course, it can be beneficial. If, even taking these factors into account, the recalculation turns out to be a smaller amount than the value of the existing collateral, then the PFR employees will make a decision to refuse. Accordingly, there will be no reduction in payments.

Limitations

The legislation determines the list of citizens who cannot count on additional payments. It includes recipients:

Early retirement. These include persons who have not reached retirement age at the time of retirement and are not working. In such a situation, when the length of service is replaced by individual coefficients, they will lose the right to an early retirement pension due to the fact that the length of service will be reduced. These individuals include, for example, teachers, health workers, etc.
State pensions, the amount of which is fixed. Such subjects, among others, include citizens who lived in the territories affected by the Chernobyl disaster.
Insurance pension due to the loss of a breadwinner. We are talking, in particular, about cases when the insured citizen has died or disappeared, and the pensioner is a disabled relative who was dependent on him. At the same time, the fact of caring for the children of the deceased does not in any way affect the pension points, on the basis of which the amount of payments was calculated.

How much is the supplement to the pension for children?

According to Article 12 of the Federal Law No. 400, the insurance period from 01.01.2015, together with the working periods, includes the time of care of each parent for each child up to 1.5 years old. However, no more than 6 years can be counted. At the same time, in accordance with clause 12 of article 15 of the same normative act, pension coefficients for these non-insurance periods are calculated. Their number is shown in the table below.

Birth order	Number of points
Birth order	In one full year	For 1.5 years of nursing leave


Third fourth

Let's look at an example. Let's say a pensioner has 2 children. During their care in 2017, 8.1 points were awarded (5.4 + 2.7). One point equals 78.58 rubles. Using these values, you can find out what is the supplement to the pension for children will receive a face:

8.1 x 78.58 \u003d 636.5 rubles per month.

Meanwhile, in practice, the value when recalculated turns out to be much smaller. This is due to the fact that if the pensioner was employed during the indicated periods, then upon replacement, the amount of available security will be reduced in proportion to the amount of earnings received during this period. Thus, the amount of additional payment for the first child, for example, may turn out to be completely negative, since there are fewer points. In such a case, it is economically unprofitable to change the method of providing. This is especially true for those who received good salaries in the corresponding periods.

Supplement to pension for children: documents

To receive a premium, you must contact the FIU with an application. Its form is unified and approved by Order of the Ministry of Labor No. 14 of 2016. The following must be attached to the application:

A copy of the applicant's passport, SNILS.
Certificate of birth of children (if they are not in the pension case).
Documents certifying that each child has reached the age of 1.5 years. If there is a stamp on the issue of a passport on the birth certificate, then this document is sufficient. If there is no stamp, you can show another document that was issued to the child. This can be, for example, a certificate, a notarized copy of his passport, marriage certificate, etc.

If the applicant cannot provide a birth certificate, you can contact the registry office to receive a certificate confirming the fact of birth.

Timing

The legislation does not provide for restrictions on the time of filing an application and the documents that must be attached to it. Accordingly, a pensioner has the right to apply to the FIU at any convenient time.

Consideration of documents is carried out within 5 days from the date of their receipt. If some papers are missing, and the applicant is unable to obtain them on his own, the FIU requests them as part of interagency cooperation.

When the application is satisfied, recalculation is carried out from the 1st day of the next month. Additional payments for the previous periods missed from the date of entry into force of the new law are not carried out.

Document submission options

How do I get a supplement to my children's pension? An applicant can send a package of documents in any of the following ways:

By personally contacting the territorial division of the PFR. Experts recommend making an appointment in advance. This can be done on the PFR website. There is no need to register on the portal to record. Pre-registration will eliminate the need to sit in line.
By contacting the MFC. Currently, multifunctional centers operate in almost all cities. To receive documents at the MFC, interaction with the FIU must be established. Despite the large number of people applying to multifunctional centers, work is being done promptly.
Through the Internet. Today, the portal of public services is actively working. The application is sent electronically. However, in this case, you must have a verified account on the portal. In addition, only an application can be submitted on the website, the rest of the documents must be personally submitted to the FIU. For this, 5 days are given. If the documents are not received within this period, the electronic appeal will not be considered, and it will have to be submitted again.
By registered mail. In this case, the person fills out the application on his own, attaches copies of documents to it and goes to the post office. You should make an inventory of the attachment and fill out a return receipt. Copies of documents must first be certified by a notary.

Fixed payments

Additional payments are due if dependent pensioner:

minor child;
full-time adult child.

In the latter case, there are certain limitations. A pensioner can receive an additional payment if the child is under 23 years old.

Also provided supplement to the pension for disabled children... The age of the latter does not matter.

Certain categories of citizens who carried out labor activities in the police department, the fire service bodies, the UIS, if there are minors at their expense, the accrual is carried out in accordance with the procedure established by the Federal Law No. 4468-1.

The amount of the surcharge

Several factors affect the amount of the benefit:

Number of minors who are dependent on the pensioner. Pension supplement for three children significantly higher than one.
Applicant's age.
The presence / absence of a disability in a pensioner.
Region of residence.

For 2017, the following amounts of fixed supplements are set for pensioners under the age of 80 who do not have disabilities:

One child - 3416 rubles.
Two - 4270.
Three - 5124.

Persons 80 years and older can expect the following amounts:

for 1 child - 5970 rubles;
for two - 6832;
for three - 7680.

In the presence of a disability for persons who have reached 80 years of age, the following payments are established depending on the group:

For 1 child - 4000-11200 rubles.
For two - 6440-12800.
For three - 7200-14400.

Residents of the Far North and territories equated to it, the amounts increase by The amount of payments varies from 6,000 to 168,000 rubles.

An increase in the amount of security is also provided for children studying at the university. Additionally, the pensioner receives 1,500 rubles.

Registration rules

You can exercise your right to receive additional payments by contacting the territorial unit of the Pension Fund of Russia with an application and a package of documents. The term for their consideration is 10 (working) days from the date of submission.

You can also send an application through the portal of public services. To do this, you need to register and verify your account. You can apply in the section "Pension Assignment". There is a special form here. You need to fill in the required fields and send an application. It should be said that in this case, consideration and verification of documents will be carried out within 30 days.

Required papers

An application is submitted to the territorial division of the PFR. Its form can be obtained from the branch of the Pension Fund. The statement indicates:

The name of the body to which it is sent.
Information about the applicant (full name, address of residence).
Dependent information. Name of each, date of birth, place of residence are indicated.

Attached to the application:

Birth certificates of dependents.
A document confirming the conduct of labor activity (if any).
A certificate confirming that the spouse has not previously applied to the Pension Fund for additional payments.
A certificate from the Federal Migration Service under f. No. 9.
Document from the place of study, if the dependent is studying and has not reached the age of 23.
Disabled card (for disabled children).

Help for mothers with many children

Women who have received the status have the opportunity to retire early. The legislation establishes the following conditions for the exercise of this right:

Reaching 50 years.
Having 5 or more children.
Duration of work experience is not less than 15 years.

At the federal level, additional payments to those already established for mothers with many children are not provided. According to the current legislation, regional authorities have the right to assign supplements to pensions. Financing is carried out, respectively, from the budget of the constituent entity of the Russian Federation. For example, the legislation of the city of Moscow provides for payments to mothers with many children in the amount of 4000 to 9000 rubles. There is also a surcharge in St. Petersburg. It is about 3000 rubles.

for large

As mentioned above, the pension supplement can be made for no more than 4 children. If the family has many children, then in order to receive early registration, a woman needs to work 9 years before the formation of a 15-year minimum length of service. The six missing years are in non-insured periods that are converted into points.

A mother with many children can receive a fixed allowance for each (up to the fifth) minor child. If adult children studying full-time are dependent, an additional payment is made for them.

conclusions

As can be seen from the above information, the state is trying to support retired citizens with children.

Of course, the rejection of non-insurance periods in the calculation significantly worsened the situation of individual citizens. In particular, this applies to persons who have four or more children. The legislation in force until 2015 provided for a minimum of guarantees. In many cases, the pension accrued according to the previously established rules did not reach the subsistence level.

Over time, the economic situation began to change. The state has the opportunity to provide citizens with additional security.

At the same time, pensioners should be very careful when deciding how to receive payments. It has already been mentioned above that replacing non-insured periods can negatively affect pension rights.

Federal surcharge

It is another way of providing material assistance to retirees. The federal surcharge began to be charged in 2010 after the introduction of Federal Law No. 213. The provisions of this regulatory act amended Federal Law No. 178.

Federal surcharge is an amount assigned to persons who have completed their labor activity and receive a pension in an amount not exceeding the subsistence level.

The pensioner's income is taken into account in determining the eligibility for this benefit. It includes all types of pensions, including those established at the regional level. When assessing income, benefits provided in-kind are not taken into account, with the exception of the cash equivalent of payment for telephone, utilities, travel.

Conditions for receiving

Federal surcharge is provided:

Russian citizens permanently residing in Russia. A person living abroad cannot receive a supplement.
Citizens who do not work. For example, pensioners caring for a disabled person can receive a supplement.
Citizens whose security amount does not reach the subsistence level with all the stipulated allowances.

The type of pension received does not matter when assigning a federal supplement. A citizen can receive an old-age pension, for length of service, in connection with disability, pensions through the security forces, in connection with the loss of a breadwinner.

The amount of the surcharge is affected by the size of the subsistence minimum. It should be noted that it differs in different regions. The subsistence minimum reaches the maximum size in the Far North. This is understandable. These territories have harsh climatic conditions, so more resources are needed to support life.

The subsistence minimum, in turn, depends on the consumer basket. It includes only the necessary goods and services. The composition of the basket is reviewed every five years. Taking into account the economic changes that have occurred in the country, new goods or services (works) may be added to it.

The size of the subsistence minimum is also affected by the belonging of a citizen in need of additional material support to one or another group. There are three categories according to socio-demographic characteristics:

Children.
Pensioners.
Able to work.

It should be borne in mind that when determining the subsistence minimum for calculating the supplement for pensioners, the age of citizens is not taken into account. For example, a minor who receives a survivor's pension will be considered a pensioner.

Having two children, even if they are adults, imposes serious expenses on pensioners. It just so happened that in our country the older generation helps the young, and we shouldn't forget about the grandchildren that appear. That is why, the state provides that a woman who has two or more children can count on an increase in her pension, which will be calculated based on the so-called points that were awarded based on the fact of the birth or adoption of children. Unfortunately, not everyone knows about such a possibility, and therefore they cannot independently calculate the amount of the premium. In this article, we will get acquainted with the conditions for the provision of additional funds to the pension payment, as well as find out how much to expect as an increase.

It is considered a delusion that the pension supplement is provided only to a retired mother who has children born before 1991. In fact, if a woman has a child after the collapse of the Soviet Union, she is not deprived of the right to recalculation and additional payment.

However, simply for a number of reasons, such a recalculation may not be beneficial to the pensioner, since at this moment there will already be other coefficients established by the Russian Federation and the output amount will be less than the initial one.

Who can apply for recalculation? These are retired women who have two or more children born to her personally or adopted. An important condition is the fact that the woman has not been deprived of her parental rights.

When will it be profitable

Since we started talking about the fact that recalculation is beneficial to women who gave birth to their children before 1991, we will talk about this point in more detail. Recalculation will bring additional funds in the following situations:

the woman gave birth to children in the amount of two or more people and took care of them until the age of one and a half years;
if the woman was pregnant with twins or triplets;
a situation when, during the period of direct care for the babies, the mother could not find a job, for example, she simply could not leave the children;
if a woman has retired, while having only a minimum length of service;
if the woman's pension was calculated on the basis of a small salary, which is below the national average;
if a retired woman receives a pension that is equal to or slightly more than the subsistence level.

In the above cases, it makes sense to apply to the Pension Fund in order to recalculate upon the fact of having two or more children.

When should you not contact?

And here are the cases that, most likely, will not bring you any increase to the available amount of payments.

Having an only child in the family.
A woman has a long work experience, while it also falls on the time of the birth of children.
A woman's pension was calculated on the basis of high wages, which were two or more times higher than the subsistence level.

Based on the foregoing, we can conclude that recalculation is beneficial only to socially disadvantaged categories of citizens who have a small pension.

Important! It is contraindicated to carry out calculations on the fact of having children for pensioners, whose payments were assigned on the basis of preferential conditions.

Also, for recipients of a pension before the deadline, that is, people who have not reached the appropriate age, such recalculations can lead to the fact of losing the right to early payments.

How many points are given for each child in the calculation?

With the onset of 2015, the main coefficient that directly affects the size of the pension is the number of points, which are called pension points. Points are reflected not in rubles, but in relative dimensions. As you know, the retirement points contained in the personal account of a pensioner can be formed in only two ways.

The first and most common way is for the employer to pay insurance premiums on wages.
The second method is the presence of non-insurance periods, when the pensioner did not work, contributions were not made for him, but he carried out social services. meaningful activity.

Every year, the government of our country publishes a coefficient by which the number of pension points will be multiplied. They will make up the size of the future pension. For example, it is expected that in 2018 one retirement point will cost 82 rubles. The pensioner's insurance record will include the period of caring for a child until he reaches one and a half years.

However, a woman can visit the decree more than once, while the total value of the decrees should not exceed a period of 6 years. That is, no more than four decrees. The number of retirement points awarded will differ depending on the order in which the babies are born.

For example, for the first child, 1.8 points are given for 1 year of care. But for a year and a half leaving 2.7. For the third, 5.4 is given for one year of care and 8.1 for a year and a half of care.

You can learn more about such a table on the website of the pension fund.

Calculation example

Imagine that a pensioner Ivanova, who has two children, applies to the Pension Fund. The increase to the pension for two children in 2018 for such a citizen who has been on maternity leave twice for a year and a half will be equal to 2, 7 + 5, 4 \u003d 8, 1 points. The cost of one retirement point at the time of 2018 is 81.5 rubles. That is, Ivanova will receive an increase equal to 660 rubles to her basic pension.

Unfortunately, in practice, the amount that was charged upon the fact of payments turns out to be much less. It turns out that this is due to the fact that the pension fund refuses to calculate the coefficients established in the table, justifying this by the age of years.

So, very often the points for the first children are not summed up, since the employees of the pension fund complain that the data on this period is simply lost.

Important!According to the statistics of the pension fund, only in 30% of cases does a woman actually receive a supplement when recalculating a pension, but unfortunately, the supplement rarely crosses the threshold of 300 rubles.

Preparing documents

If you want to try your luck and apply to the Pension Fund for the recalculation procedure, you need to carefully approach the issue of drawing up a package of documents. Unfortunately, often women are refused in accordance with the fact that they simply do not deliver all the important papers.

The pensioner draws up a statement, which we will discuss in detail in the next paragraph.
Passport provided.
SNILS and its copy must be attached.
The birth certificate of each of the children of the pensioner is attached.
Documents that confirm the fact that the child has reached the age of one and a half years.

Unfortunately, if the children of a pensioner have reached the age of majority, it is often found that the birth certificate is simply lost. In such a situation, it is necessary to appear at the civil registry office and obtain a certificate that testifies to the fact and place of birth of each of the children. A certificate of divorce or marriage is attached.

Sometimes employees of the pension fund may require additional documents. Be prepared to provide them.

We draw up a statement

Drawing up a statement is a separate and certainly important stage for which you should prepare in advance. Such a document is drawn up on an A4 sheet. It's great if you manage to go to the official website of the pension fund and find this form in the documents tab. Print it out and fill in the blank fields. If this is not possible, the document can be drawn up by hand, using black or blue paste.

In the very top line, indicate the name of the institution where you are going to carry the documents. For example, the name of the nearest regional branch of the pension fund.
Next, enter the name of the document.
Then you need to enter your full initials, SNILS details, as well as citizenship.
The address of the place of residence and the address of the place of registration are indicated.
It is necessary to provide several phone numbers so that the employee of the pension fund can contact you at any time.
Then the details and the most important information from the passport are indicated in the form of a table.
The corresponding gender is marked.
In the second paragraph, you ask for a recalculation in your name, and also specify the type of pension.
Then you need to check the box next to the reason that influenced your decision to apply to the Pension Fund. For example, the number of disabled family members has increased, or you have become the owner of the required experience in the Far North.
The application is dated at the end of the application, as well as your signature. It is in this form that the document should be handed over to the employee of the pension fund.

How to register?

In order to notify the state that you need a recalculation, today there are four legal ways. And each of them has a number of nuances.

You can personally contact your territorial office of the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation. To do this, you will need the above package of documents. However, due to the huge influx of visitors, this method is as long as possible and will take a lot of your free time.
Today there is the possibility of contacting through a multifunctional center. This service is also free of charge and is carried out in accordance with the electronic queue. However, you will have to spend a little more time to review your package of documents, since MFC employees still contact the pension fund of the Russian Federation.
Many retirees possess the ability to use a computer and, in particular, the Internet. You will need a profile on the government services portal. Having received a personal account on this resource, you will be able to submit an application in electronic form. 5 days after submission, the pensioner will be offered to appear at the appointed time at the nearest branch of the pension fund for personal submission of documents. And although you do not avoid a personal visit, nevertheless, this procedure will take much less of your free time.
The fourth way is to send documents and applications by registered mail. This method is welcomed by those citizens in whose settlements there is no Internet, as well as government agencies. It is recommended to send photocopies of the papers, and then, when employees of the pension fund contact you, provide the originals already in person.

Step-by-step instruction

Since most often pensioners prefer the very first option, we will consider a step-by-step action by contacting the Pension Fund in person.

The pensioner must write an application in advance and draw up a package of documents.
Then you need to come to the territorial body of the pension fund.
Wait until it is your turn, then contact the employee.
Provide a package of documents and an application.
The employee will check the correctness of the document, as well as the number of papers provided.
If everything is correct, the employee accepts a package of documents from you, and gives the pensioner a certificate, which indicates that the papers are under consideration.
A few calendar days later, the pensioner will be notified of the need to report to the Pension Fund.
He will be given back a package of papers, as well as a decision on recalculation will be announced. For example, they will tell you why the amount when recalculated will turn out to be less than the existing one, or vice versa, they will issue a certificate that will indicate that an increase will be made to the pension. You can expect a new amount of pension payments next month.

Timing

The issue of timing should not be overlooked. Meanwhile, this is a very important topic that worries pensioners. So, the term for applying for recalculation is not limited. The government of the Russian Federation does not establish a framework within which citizens must apply to the Pension Fund on this issue. This means that you can apply for recalculation both immediately after the fact of retirement, and several years after that.

As for the terms of consideration, on average, recalculation takes place within 3 days. However, in some situations, the consideration period will be increased, but the employee of the pension fund must notify about this in advance.

Underwater rocks

As mentioned above, in some situations, recalculating a pension taking into account two children can significantly reduce the amount of payments. Therefore, do not write a statement if you are not sure how this procedure will affect your future pension.

Also, we strongly recommend that you visit your territorial department of the pension fund in order to consult in this matter.

Pay attention to the collection of the package of documents. Very often, if a woman takes a certificate from a civil registry office, then the information in it does not always correspond to reality.

Conclusion

Issues related to pension require separate consideration. Therefore, before contacting the territorial office, be sure to familiarize yourself with the current legislation and with the recently made changes. I would like to believe that a tangible increase in pension will await you, although, unfortunately, practice tells us exactly the opposite.

Pensioners in Russia usually receive little, and often they have to not only live on pension payments, but also support disabled family members who cannot support themselves without the help of their relatives. In such cases, the state appoints a supplement to the pension for the maintenance of children. The supplement can be established by both the FIU and the local Social Security of the population. Moreover, the premium is established for payments not only for age, but also for disability and length of service.

However, the surcharge may be imposed otherwise. A person has the right to apply for it if he became a pensioner before 2015 and when calculating his pension, the periods of leave for caring for babies were not separately taken into account.

Both types of pension supplements are not automatic. To obtain them, you must submit an application, supported by a package of official documents proving the right to receive state support. We will consider each type of allowances and how they are issued, as well as tell you who and when you can apply for them.

Increase due to decree

Previously, the seniority was established solely on the basis of the entries made in the work book. And since the leave to take care of the baby was not recorded there, it was not isolated from the usual working period. Since 2015, when calculating pensions for working people, maternity leave can be included in both the insurance and non-insurance periods (in accordance with Article 12). This is done automatically, depending on which option is more beneficial for the recipient of the pension.

If people who have retired since 2015 do not need to apply for recalculation in connection with the decree, then those who became retired earlier than this time should contact the FIU on their own.

For everyone, recalculation will mean a supplement to the pension salary. It is disadvantageous for the following persons:

have given birth to one child;
with a long term of work;
with high wages (at least 20% higher than the national average);
with an assigned early pension (since when recalculating the length of service may be reduced for the duration of parental leave, and the holder of an early pension may lose his right to it).

The supplement is not applicable at all to recipients of social benefits and survivors' pensions.

The recalculation will be useful for the following persons:

parent of two or more children;
a person with little experience;
a citizen whose wages were low;
someone who was not employed during the period of the decree;
a pensioner whose old age payments are below the subsistence level established in the region of residence, or equal to it.

There is one important limitation to keep in mind. It concerns the general period during which a person took care of children up to one and a half years. The largest number of retirement points will be given over a six-year period, but no more. That is, no matter how many children there are in the family, their parent will be awarded points for a maximum of four.

Considering that in 2020 the cost of the pension point was 81.49 rubles, it is easy to calculate how much will be added to the pension after it is recalculated:

1.8 IPK, or 146.68 rubles - for a parent of one child;
3.6 points, or 293.36 rubles - to a person who has raised two children;
5.4 points, or 440.04 rubles - to a large citizen for the third and fourth children.

Supplements are also charged for children with disabilities. For caring for a child who is recognized as a disabled person, 1.8 IPC is charged.

Supplement for dependents

Pension supplements for children are due to people who receive insurance payments for length of service, disability or age, if their amount is below the subsistence level. The law on pension payments No. 400-FZ lists dependents, for the maintenance of which an additional payment is due. In addition to their own children, the list includes sisters and brothers, as well as grandchildren, provided that their parents have died or are recognized as disabled. The supplement is made by adding a certain amount to a fixed payment that is issued with a pension salary.

According to Article 17 of Law No. 400-FZ, people who are the only breadwinners of disabled children receive a fixed payment by a third for each child. In this case, they pay extra for a maximum of three people.

The fixed payment is increased annually due to indexation. In 2020, its amount was 4,982 rubles 90 kopecks, and the allowance for disabled children increased to the following values:

1,660.97 rubles - for the breadwinner of one child;
3,321.93 rubles - to the one who provides two children;
4,982.90 rubles - for the breadwinner of three or more children.

If a woman with twenty years of experience and a man with twenty-five years have worked in the Far North for at least 15 years, the supplement for disabled dependents is increased by 50%. If a woman and a man with the same experience have worked for twenty years in areas that are equated to the Far North, they are entitled to an increase of 30%. The supplement is prescribed not only for workers in the Far North and in equivalent areas, but also for residents of these places. Their payment is increased by the regional coefficient.

Registration of the application

An application for recalculating the size of the pension salary is filled out on a special form according to the sample, which can be found on the website of "Gosuslugi". This form is suitable both for those who want to receive additional PKI for the period of caring for a baby up to one and a half years, and for those who provide for dependents.

The statement consists of eight points. Let's analyze each of them:

1. Personal data. The applicant must indicate his full name, citizenship, SNILS number, address, passport and contact information.

1. Representative data. If an application with papers is submitted through a representative, you must also fill out his passport and contact information and enter the number and series of the power of attorney, indicate by whom it was issued and for how long.

1. Request for recalculation. In this section, it is necessary to indicate the type of pension to be recalculated, as well as the reasons for which this application is submitted: the presence of dependents or an increase in the size of the PKI for the periods before 01.01.2015.

1. Availability of work and dependents. The pensioner must indicate whether he is working or retired, as well as the number of disabled family members that he supports.

1. Warnings. This paragraph must be read carefully, as it contains information on the need to promptly notify the FIU about a change in place of residence, as well as circumstances affecting the amount of pension payments.

1. Attached documents. All official papers that are submitted with the application are listed here.

1. Informing. The pensioner, if desired, can mark the method of receiving notifications from the FIU (by e-mail or by phone number).

Confirmation of the accuracy of the information provided. It is necessary to write the date of filling out the application and sign it with a decryption.

What documents are needed?

To receive monthly co-payments for dependents, the application must be supplemented with the following documents:

the applicant's passport;
birth certificates of children or their passports;
papers that are able to confirm the existence of kinship between the applicant and the dependent (birth certificate of children, marriage with a change of surname, a certificate from the registry office about the presence of kinship, etc.);
certificate of cohabitation of a pensioner with a dependent;
documents confirming the pensioner's expenses for a child (if the dependent has reached the age of majority).

For recalculation in connection with maternity leave for childcare, a package of the following papers is attached to the application:

passport;
birth certificates of children (if there are minor children);
passports of adult children;
SNILS;
official papers proving that the other parent did not apply for a surcharge.

The application is considered by the staff of the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation, and if their decision is positive, the surcharge will be made already from the first day of the month that follows the month when the documents were submitted. If the decision is negative, the applicant will receive written notification. If you disagree with the decision, you can appeal it in court.

If a pensioner supports a student

An additional payment is prescribed not only for a minor child, but also for students under 23 years old, if they study full-time. It does not matter whether the child is studying on a budget or on a commercial basis, in a private or state, Russian or foreign educational institution. For a child who is studying in absentia, an additional payment is due only until he reaches the age of majority. When he turns 18, the payment of the premium will automatically stop.

When transferring a child student from full-time education to part-time education, it is necessary to notify the FIU employees within five days. This is done in order to stop additional payments on time. Otherwise, the pensioner will have to return the illegally received money. The collection is made by deducting the overpaid amount from the pension salary.

Additional payments to the pension will continue to be calculated when the student takes an academic leave. However, this does not apply to a student who has suspended the educational process in connection with conscription into the ranks of the Russian army.

To receive an increase for an adult child student, you must additionally bring to the FIU a certificate from an educational institution confirming full-time education. The certificate should contain:

personal data of the student (his full name and date of birth);
the name of the institution;
form of training;
number of the enrollment order and its date;
period of study.

It is also obligatory to have the seal and signature of the head of the institution. After all the papers have been submitted, a decision is made regarding the accrual of the premium. If it is positive, the increased pension is paid throughout the student's studies. In this case, you will not need to somehow confirm the surcharge.

Allowance for military pensioners

Military pensioners are also entitled to some additional payments for the maintenance of dependents, which is regulated on February 12, 1993. According to article 17, the allowance is only given to those who quit their job and switched to retirement benefits.

The military includes not only representatives of the Russian army, but also the following persons:

employees of the Ministry of Internal Affairs;
employees of the troops of the National Guard of Russia;
employees of bodies for control over the circulation of drugs and psychotropic substances;
employees of the State Fire Safety;
employees of institutions for the execution of criminal sentences (including pre-trial detention centers and enterprises created specifically to ensure the operation of the penal system).

An important condition for the appointment of a supplement is the fact that the dependents have not received an insurance or social pension.

All of the above persons have the right to take a break from work ahead of schedule, receiving a salary for length of service. It is to him that a certain amount is added for the dependents.

According to Article 24 of Law No. 4468-1, allowances for children are also applied to the pension of military invalids. The amount of the supplement depends on the amount of pension payments:

32% - to the breadwinner of one child;
64% - to those who support two disabled family members;
100% - providing three or more dependents.

Regional increases

Social allowances to the pension salary are regulated by and. According to his first article, the increase can be of two types: federal or regional. Federal allowances are established by the FIU, regional - by the departments of social protection of the population. The federal allowance is due to those pensioners whose total income is below the subsistence level adopted in the region where they live (provided that this amount is below the subsistence level in the Russian Federation as a whole). Regional allowances are assigned to pensioners in those regions where the subsistence level is higher than in the Russian Federation as a whole. This is done on the condition that the person's pension does not reach this increased amount. Actually, the increased size of the fixed payment is intended to increase the pension salary to the level of the subsistence level.

In 2020, the subsistence minimum for a pensioner in the country was 8,506 rubles. The lowest figures were found in the Ulyanovsk region (7,474 rubles), the highest - in the Chukotka Autonomous District (19,000 rubles).

In some cases, the surcharge is stopped:

if the pensioner himself applied with the refusal of the supplement;
when a pensioner moves to another region;
when circumstances change that influenced the appointment of an additional amount;
when applying for a job for a pensioner;
with the death of a pensioner.

To receive a regional surcharge, you must submit an application to Social Security or the MFC. The following documents are attached to the application:

passport (for Russians);
Residence permit (for foreigners);
birth certificates of all children for whom an additional payment is due;
work book confirming the fact of termination of employment;
certificate of marriage or divorce;
certificate of change of full name (when changing these data);
papers proving the identity of the representative, as well as a power of attorney certified by a notary (if the application is submitted through third parties).

Conclusion

Pension supplements are assigned in two cases:

if desired, recalculate the size of the pension salary in connection with previously unaccounted for periods of parental leave up to one and a half years;
in the presence of disabled dependents.

In the first case, only recipients of old-age insurance payments can apply for an increase, and only those who have switched to retirement benefits since 2015. The supplement for dependents can be received by pensioners not only by age, but also by disability or length of service.

The supplement for the maintenance of children can be paid both from the federal budget and from the regional. However, it is only due to those whose pension does not reach the subsistence level established either in the country or in the region of residence of the pensioner.

In July 2017, the regional offices of the Russian Pension Fund (PFR) began to provide open sources (meaning numerous publications in the media and on the official website of the PFR) long-awaited explanations regarding the excitement that has developed in many regions of the country around the so-called “increase in pensions for children pensioners ".

According to previous rumors, retired women, by applying to the FIU, can receive supplement to pension for children born before 1990 (or in general in Soviet times before 1991 - including for adult children born before 1980), the amount of which for each child can reach up to several hundred rubles (accordingly, the more children a retired mother has, the greater the amount of the allowance will be).

Attention

Many women who independently applied to the Pension Fund on this issue really got a permanent addition to the pension for children, which caused an unprecedented excitement among other pensioners. This led to huge queues at the FIU client services in 2017 and forced their employees to provide detailed explanations.

What payments are due to pensioners for children?

Immediately, we note that we are not talking about some kind of self-payment! The increase to the pension for children is obtained as a result of recalculation due to the fact that, according to the new law, from January 1, 2015, the rules for calculating the labor pension (assigned both for old age upon reaching the retirement age and for disability) have changed, and now its size, in addition to periods of work, is also affected "Non-insurance periods" - in particular, the implementation by one of the parents (usually the mother) of caring for each child until the age of 1.5 (Article 12 of the Federal Law of December 28, 2013 No. 400-FZ).

So that in the future there are no additional misconceptions, you can immediately select for yourself the most important points regarding the receipt of this increase:

For those pensioners who retired after January 1, 2015, you do not need to apply for recalculation, since the most profitable option has already been calculated and assigned to them. Recalculation is due only if the woman has non-insurance periods unaccounted for when assigning a pension before January 1, 2015 or accounted for under the old rules, for which pension points are now accrued in accordance with the new law of December 28, 2013 No. 400-FZ.

Deadline for submitting an application for recalculating a pension for women for children not limited in time - in other words, you can apply at any time, and not only by personal contacting your Pension Fund branch, but also:

through multifunctional centers of the MFC - such an opportunity already exists in most regions or will be available in the near future;
submitting an application remotely - on the Internet through a single portal of public services or by mail.

Received as a result of recalculation pension supplement for children is individual and is not guaranteed for all pensioners, since replacing seniority with a childcare period will not always be beneficial.

According to statistics, only in 20-30% of cases the amount of pension benefits paid can be increased, and the amount of the increase can range from a few rubles to several hundred or, in some cases, even exceed a thousand rubles.
If the recalculation is obtained "with a minus sign", then the current pension will not decrease (since the deterioration of pension provision is not allowed by the current law), and the employees of the Pension Fund will make a decision to refuse.

Who is entitled to supplement to pension for children

Note right away that the year of birth of children does not have any determining value - they can be born before 1990 and at any time after this period.

The misconception that the supplement is due only for children born before 1990 (1991) has arisen due to the fact that the new procedure for accounting for pension rights introduced in 2015 gives a tangible increase to the pension for adult children for those pensioners who have predominantly “ Soviet "experience, which now has little effect on the size of the pension and which can be taken into account on more favorable conditions for the pensioner in the form of pension points. They are recommended to carry out such a recalculation first. As a rule, such mothers in their overwhelming majority just retired before January 1, 2015 (and they may already be at a very respectable age - they may be 70, 80 years old, and even more).

However, this is by no means does not meanthat in the event of the birth of children after the collapse of the USSR, a woman will automatically lose the right to such a recalculation! Just usually it may not be beneficial to them for some other reason (for example, if a woman's work experience was formed mainly after the beginning of the 1990s according to newer, Russian pension laws).

It should be understood that the periods of caring for children by themselves do not imply an automatic increase in the pension, since often the periods of work already taken into account in its appointment give a higher contribution to the size of the payment than replacing them with 1.5 years of caring for each of the children. In practice, there are a large number of special cases in which it may be advantageous or not profitable to make such recalculation (see table).

When can recalculation be beneficial?	When is the recalculation likely to yield no gain?
If a woman has given birth to 2 or more children and took care of them until the age of 1.5 If there were several children in the same pregnancy (for example, twins or triplets were born) If during the childcare period the mother was not employed (for example, she studied or simply did not have an official labor relationship) If she retired with minimum work experience If the mother's pension was established based on low earnings (below the national average) If, taking into account all the above circumstances, a woman's pension is paid in an amount close to the subsistence minimum (now this is the minimum pension)	If a pensioner has the only child If she has a long work experience, including the birth of children If the pension was originally calculated on the basis of a high salary (however, a salary exceeding the national average by 20% was not taken into account when assigning a pension until 2002 - i.e. the ratio of earnings for this period in most cases does not exceed 1.2, but this is usually sufficient so that recalculation of pensions for children according to "non-insurance" points does not give any gain in comparison with the previously assigned option)

When can recalculation be beneficial?

When is the recalculation likely to yield no gain?

If a woman has given birth to 2 or more children and took care of them until the age of 1.5
If there were several children in the same pregnancy (for example, twins or triplets were born)
If during the childcare period the mother was not employed (for example, she studied or simply did not have an official labor relationship)
If she retired with minimum work experience
If the mother's pension was established based on low earnings (below the national average)
If, taking into account all the above circumstances, a woman's pension is paid in an amount close to the subsistence minimum (now this is the minimum pension)

If a pensioner has the only child
If she has a long work experience, including the birth of children
If the pension was originally calculated on the basis of a high salary (however, a salary exceeding the national average by 20% was not taken into account when assigning a pension until 2002 - i.e. the ratio of earnings for this period in most cases does not exceed 1.2, but this is usually sufficient so that recalculation of pensions for children according to "non-insurance" points does not give any gain in comparison with the previously assigned option)

Thus, first of all, pensioners who have 2 or more children, who had low earnings and (or) short work experience, can count on receiving a supplement for children as a result of pension recalculation.

Attention

It is contraindicated to recalculate pensioners whose pension was granted on preferential terms. For recipients of early retirement benefitswho have not reached the retirement age, as a result of the replacement of the working period with "non-insurance" 1.5 years of childcare, the preferential experience is lost, lead to loss of the right to early retirement.

How many points are given for each child when recalculated

Since 2015, the main indicator affecting the size of the paid pension is the number of so-called "retirement points" (in fact, by law, this is called "Individual pension coefficient" - IPK), recorded in the FIU on the individual personal account of the pensioner. This parameter reflects not in rubles, as it was done before, but in relative units the size of a citizen's pension rights to an insurance (labor) pension.

Pension points on a personal account are formed in two main ways:

at the expense of the employer compulsory insurance premiums (in 2019, they account for 22% of the employee's wage fund, of which 6% go to the formation of a fixed payment, and 16% are recorded on an individual personal account in the form of pension points);
by taking into account in points the so-called "non-insurance periods" of the implementation of socially significant activities, when the future pensioner does not work and contributions for him are not deducted, however, pension rights formed at the expense of the state (a full list of such periods is listed in Article 12 of the Law of December 28, 2013 No. 400-FZ - this is, in particular, the time of conscription military service for men, carried out by one of the parents care for every child under 1.5 years old and etc.)

Attention

If as a result of the calculations the size of the increase will be negative, then it will not be profitable for a pensioner to make such a replacement, and employees of the Pension Fund will refuse to register a recalculation (that is, the size of the pension will not decrease anyway).

What documents are needed for recalculation

To recalculate the amount of the pension, taking into account non-insurance periods, according to the new rules, only those pensioners (one of the parents who took care of a child under 1.5 years old) should apply to whom she was appointed until 2015... This can be done by recipients of an old age or disability insurance pension. Recalculation is made only at the request of a pensioner, which must be submitted to the branch of the Pension Fund, which carries out the payment of the pension (since it is in it that the pensioner's payment file is kept, on the basis of which the additional payment for the children born will be calculated).

Since we are talking about regular declarative recalculation of pension, a standard application is used for it, the form of which is approved by Order of the Ministry of Labor of the Russian Federation of January 19, 2016 No. 14n (Appendix No. 2 to the PFR Administrative Regulations on the provision of public services for the establishment of pensions).

Together with the completed application, it is mandatory to accept personal storage documents:

iD card of a pensioner (passport of a citizen of the Russian Federation);
certificate of compulsory pension insurance (SNILS).

Attention

Also, according to clause 2 of Art. 23 laws "On insurance pensions" an application for recalculation is accepted provided that the pensioner provides documents required for its conduct.

First of all, the presence of non-insurance periods is confirmed on the basis of documents already in the pensioner's payment file, as well as personalized accounting information available to employees of the Pension Fund. If information on the periods of caring for children until they reach 1.5 years of age is absent or incomplete, then the applicant confirms their presence additional documents:

birth certificates of all children (in their absence, you can order a child's birth certificate from the registry office);
documents confirming that children have reached one and a half years of age - this can be any official document issued to a child by state authorities at a later age (child's passport, certificate or diploma of education, military ID, etc.).

Attention

If the birth certificate contains a stamp on the child's receipt of a passport of a citizen of the Russian Federation after he reaches the age of 14, then just a birth certificate will be enough with the appropriate mark!

How to apply for a supplement to the pension for children

You can submit an application and the necessary documents for the recalculation to your branch of the Pension Fund at any time convenient for the pensioner - term of circulation is not limited... If a positive decision is made (if, as a result of recalculation, the amount of the pension changes upward), the pension will be assigned taking into account the increase only from the 1st day of the next month... Supplement to pension for children for pensioners for the previous period (missed from the date the new law came into force on January 1, 2015) not produced.

You can apply for recalculation in one of the four provided ways:

The legislation of the Russian Federation annually provides for certain benefits for the needy categories of citizens. In Russia, there is a law that regulates the benefits for citizens who have reached retirement age and have minor children under guardianship.

Basic concept of pension supplement

A pension supplement for a citizen who has reached retirement age is a certain amount of money that is reimbursed to a pensioner if certain conditions are met. In most cases, an allowance for a pensioner is carried out if he has minor or disabled children dependent on him.

Important!!! The supplement to the pension for children born after and before 1990 is not an automatic supplement to the monthly pension amount, but is calculated based on certain conditions.

Basic conditions for receiving the allowance for minor children

A pension supplement is possible for both working pensioners and those not working. An important condition remains that the pensioner be a citizen of the Russian Federation. The Pension Fund of the Russian Federation puts forward the basic requirements for receiving a pension supplement:

The pensioner must retire no earlier than 01.01.2015;
The pensioner retired after that date, but did not report the children he had to the Pension Fund.

According to the old procedure for calculating pensions, maternity leave was not included in the woman's total length of service, but was deducted from it. Today, pensioners can recalculate their seniority, taking into account points for maternity leave, this will also be a certain premium to their pension.

Highlights in getting a pension supplement for minor children.

Those pensioners who retired after January 1, 2015 do not need to apply for a recalculation, since the most advantageous option has already been calculated and assigned to them. Recalculation is only required if the woman has non-insurance periods that were not taken into account when assigning a pension before January 1, 2015 or taken into account according to the old rules, for which pension points are now accrued in accordance with the new law of December 28, 2013 No. 400-FZ.
There is no time limit for submitting an application for recalculating the pension for women for children.
The increment to the pension for children obtained as a result of the recalculation is individual and is not guaranteed for all pensioners, since replacing the length of service with a childcare period will not always be beneficial.

According to statistics, only in 20-30% of cases the size of the paid pension provision can be increased, and the amount of the increase can range from a few rubles to several hundred or, in some cases, even exceed a thousand rubles.

Important!!! If the recalculation is obtained "with a minus sign", then the current amount of the pension will not decrease (since the deterioration of the pension provision is not allowed by the current law), and the employees of the Pension Fund will make a decision to refuse.

Who is eligible for pension supplements for minor children?

According to Russian law, a pension supplement can be received by women of retirement age who have two or more children, children were born after 1990. The earnings of these women were minimal and their seniority was not great. Also, women who are dependent on minor children or children who are enrolled in full-time education. In order to receive a supplement to her pension, a woman must contact the pension fund of the Russian Federation at the place of registration with an application and a certain package of documents. This package of documents includes the following documents:

Application for calculating a pension supplement for minor children;
A document that confirms the presence of minor children;
A copy of the work book, certified by a notary;
Certificates confirming the absence of allowances;

All allowances and pension calculation are governed by the legislation of the Russian Federation, therefore, in order to receive the allowance, a certain procedure must be followed.

Application submission

The application can be submitted in two ways:

· Through the Pension Fund, by contacting the employees of the Pension Fund with a package of documents and a written statement;

· Through the site of public services, which requires registration, then you need to go to the menu "pension accrual" and follow all the prompts.

Consideration of the submitted documents.

Pension fund employees accept a package of documents and an application; a period of no more than 10 days is allocated for consideration.

Decision making by PF staff.

After 10 days after submitting the application, the PF employees are required to notify the applicant of the decision, positive - the amount of the premium is calculated, or negative - the allowance is denied.

Fulfilling this procedure, and having all the necessary documents, the pensioner is required to provide a supplement to the pension.

Maintenance of minor children;
If the child is studying at an educational institution full-time;
Caring for a disabled child.

That is, if a woman who retired upon reaching retirement age and at the same time has minor children in her support, she has every right to apply to the Pension Fund to receive a supplement to the existing amount of pension payments.

Supplement for minor children

Russian legislation provides for a supplement to the basic pension for pensioners who retired upon reaching retirement age and do not have other benefits, who have minor children as their dependents.

Principal amounts of the premium.

Important!!! If a pensioner is officially employed, according to Russian law, he is entitled to a supplement to the basic pension in the amount of one third of the fixed amount of the pension.

Based on this article, it can be concluded that the state in every possible way provides material support to citizens who need it, the main condition for receiving a supplement to the pension for a minor child in 2020 is the presence of citizenship of the Russian Federation.

Welcome to website... In this article, we will talk about the supplement to the pension for children. In July 2017, the pension fund in the regions began to provide explanations for the changes in the law, which brought a lot of talk about whether there would be an addition to the pension for children.

Many thought that if a woman is retired, then she has the right to come with an application to the territorial department of the pension fund and receive an addition to her pension if the children were born before 1990. And the amount of such an allowance could exceed several hundred rubles for each child.

Most of the women who applied to the pension fund on their own actually received this allowance, which caused a lot of conversation among other mothers of pensioners. As a result, long lines began to form in pension funds, and employees had to give public and detailed explanations to pensioners.

It is worth knowing that now we are not talking about self-payment. The supplement to the pension for children is made by means of recalculation. In accordance with the changes in the law, in 2015 the labor pension began to be calculated according to the new rules, both upon reaching the retirement age and for disability. And now the size of the pension is influenced not only by work periods, but also not by insurance periods, that is, caring for a child until he reaches the age of 1.5 years.

There are several important points to be aware of regarding this allowance:

Those retired women who started receiving their pension after the beginning of 2015 do not need to apply for a recalculation, since a profitable calculation option is done automatically. Recalculation is carried out only if, when assigning a pension, the woman did not take into account periods that are considered not insurance, or they were taken into account according to the old rules, for which points are now credited.
The deadlines for writing an application are not limited, that is, a woman can come with an application to the pension fund at any time, documents are submitted not only with personal contact, but also with the help of multifunctional centers (MFC) or when submitting documents through the portal of public services (gosuslugi.ru ).
The increment that will be after the recalculation is individual, and it is not guaranteed to all pensioners, since replacing the seniority with non-insurance periods is not always beneficial. According to statistics, only 30% of women who applied for an increase in pension receive, and the amount of the increase can be from several hundred rubles to several thousand.
If, during the recalculation, the amount of the pension is reduced, then in fact this will not happen, since the employees of the Pension Fund will simply refuse to recalculate.

Which pensioner will receive an addition to the pension for children?

It is worth knowing that the year of birth of children does not play a special role in this case, that is, they can be born before 1990, and at any time after this date.

The opinion that an increase in the pension for children is given only at their birth until 1990 was based on the fact that when the changes were introduced in 2015, a serious increase took place among those pensioners who not only have adult children, but also the so-called "Soviet" experience. It does not particularly affect the size of the pension, but it provides the most favorable conditions when converting this experience into pension points.

This recalculation is made to these pensioners in the first place. As a rule, such mothers have reached retirement age and left for a well-deserved rest before 2015, and they are already of an honorable age, that is, more than 70 years.

But this does not mean that if a woman has children after the collapse of the USSR, then she loses the right to recalculate. Most often, such a recalculation becomes simply unprofitable for a pensioner for other reasons. That is, if the experience of a woman began to form already according to the new Russian laws, after the USSR collapsed.

It is worth knowing that those periods in which a woman took care of children does not automatically increase the amount of the pension. Since those working periods that have been taken into account make the greatest contribution to the size of the pension than replacing them with 1.5 years of non-insurance period. At the moment, there are many options when replacing the seniority with a non-insurance period is beneficial or, on the contrary, unprofitable.

Options when replacing seniority with a non-insurance period is beneficial:

If a woman has two children whom she cared for until they were 1.5 years old.
When several children are born at the same time. For example, twins or triplets.
If at the time of caring for the children the woman was not in an employment relationship or was studying.
If the retirement occurred with the minimum length of service.
If the minimum wage was taken into account when calculating the mother's pension, that is, lower than in the country.
If, taking into account all the circumstances, the accrued pension is below the subsistence level, that is, the minimum pension.

Options when replacing seniority with non-insurance periods is unprofitable:

If the pensioner has only one child.
If a woman has a long work experience, which also falls on childcare.
If high wages were taken into account when calculating the pension. But the wages, which exceeded 20% in the country until 2002, were not taken into account in the calculation, in other words, the ratio of income for that period does not exceed 1.2, but this is enough for recalculation for children to not give additional payments to pension payments.

The law does not specify exactly who is entitled to a supplement to the pension for children. As a result, it turns out that the recalculation of the pension can be made for those women who have two or more children, and the minimum length of service and a small wage are taken into account to calculate the pension.

Recalculation is not made for those women whose pension was granted on preferential terms. These women include early pension recipients who have not reached retirement age. In this case, when replacing work experience for a non-insurance period, a woman may lose the right to receive an early pension.

Calculation of points given for each child

In accordance with the changes in the pension legislation, the main indicator that affects the amount of the pension is pension points. They are recorded on the personal account of each pensioner in the pension fund. The reflection of such points is not made in rubles, as it was before, but in relative units, that is, the size of pension rights to receive a labor pension.

The formation of pension points on a personal account is done in two ways:

With the help of insurance premiums paid by the employer. In 2020, the employer pays 22% of the employee's total salary, 6% of this amount goes to the formation of a fixed wage, and 16% goes to the personal account in the form of pension points.
When accounting for non-insurance periods, that is, if a pensioner does not work and insurance premiums are not deducted for him, then the state is in charge of forming the pension. These periods also include conscription service - for men, and caring for children up to 1.5 years old.

It is worth knowing that today, parental leave is 3 years, but only half of this leave goes into the non-insurance period, which is taken into account. It was during the same period that a woman receives an allowance for up to 1.5 years. Although this is unfair, due to the fact that children go to kindergarten when they reach the age of three, and the woman is not able to go to work earlier and start providing for herself and the child.

At the time of the appointment of a pension, all points that are on the personal account and those that were accrued for non-insurance periods are multiplied by the established legal amount. In 2020, one point costs 93 rubles.

In accordance with the new law, not only working periods are taken into account in the pension, but also those when the woman was on maternity leave, but not more than 6 years in total. In other words, only 4 children are included in the pension. But it is worth knowing that the amount of points that will be awarded at the time of maternity leave will be different, depending on the sequence and year of birth of the child.

For one point in 2020, 93 rubles are required.

For the care for one child with 1 year of care, 1.8 points are given, and for 1.5 years of care - 2.7 points. Accordingly, the maximum possible surcharge will be 235 rubles.
For caring for a second child with 1 year of care they give 3.6 points, and with 1.5 years of care - 5.4 points. Accordingly, the maximum possible surcharge will be 471 rubles.
When caring for a third child, with 1 year of care they give 5.4 points, and with 1.5 years of care - 8.1 points. Accordingly, the maximum possible surcharge will be 706 rubles.
When caring for a fourth child, with 1 year of care they give 5.4 points, and with 1.5 years of care - 8.1 points. Accordingly, the maximum possible surcharge will be 706 rubles.

It is worth knowing that the maximum increase will be applied only to those pensioners who at the time of maternity leave were not in labor relations, and this period was not taken into account when assigning a pension payment earlier.

Also, the maximum that was provided can be reduced in the following cases:

An exception from the calculation of non-insurance periods, which were taken into account according to the old rules, since when the pension for children is recalculated, the length of service is replaced by a non-insurance period. That is, the salary that was taken into account when assigning a pension is replaced with points, and such a replacement is not always beneficial.
General reduction in working periods for a pensioner with a replacement made.

It is worth remembering that the exact recalculation of the pension for women for children can only be made by an employee of the pension fund. It is produced only on an individual basis, and the amount of the increase with the same number of children will be different for all pensioners, since the formation of pension rights also occurs individually.

If at the time of recalculation, the result becomes negative, then carrying out this recalculation becomes unprofitable and the employees of the Pension Fund will refuse the pensioner, since the amount of the pension will be reduced.

Example of calculating the allowance

The woman began receiving old-age labor pension benefits in 2012. As of January 1, 2002, when the formation of a pension in the country began with the help of payment of insurance premiums, her total work experience was 26 years, and the ratio of maximum earnings was 1.2.

The woman came to the pension fund to recalculate the pension for children born before 1990 during her work in 1979 and in 1988. At the time of replacement of the already accounted periods of work for two non-insurance periods, that is, caring for children until they reach 1.5 years, 3 years were removed from the total work experience.

As a result, there was a decrease in the seniority coefficient and the amount of valorization, that is, the revaluation of pension rights for the period up to 1991. And the points that were awarded to her instead of this period were: 1.5 years * (1.8 + 3.6) \u003d 8.1 points, in other words 660.07 rubles.

Since the recalculation led to a decrease in the amount of the pension that she received, the employees of the Pension Fund of the fund refused, and the increase to the pension for 2 children was not charged. And a woman who has raised 3 children in the same situation can get an increase in the amount of 150 rubles.

Registration of an increase in pension for children

The pensioner has the right to submit an application and all the necessary documents, on the basis of which a supplement to the pension for children will be made, at any time convenient for her, the terms of application in this case are not limited.

If the decision, after consideration of the documents, is positive, that is, as a result of recalculation, the amount of the pension will be increased, then the payment of the pension, taking into account the increment, will be made from the first day of the next month. But the supplement to the pension for children for the previous periods, that is, those that were missed after the amendments to the law came into force on January 1, 2015, will not be paid.

Submission of documents and applications can be done in one of several convenient ways:

With the help of a personal appeal to the territorial department of the pension fund. But due to the fact that there may be a large queue of visitors to the specialists, it is recommended to make a preliminary appointment. An entry is made on the official portal of the pension fund, registration is not required for this.
By submitting documents through multifunctional centers, that is, the MFC. This service for receiving documents and applications for recalculating a pension can be provided at the territorial office of the MFC. This requires working interagency cooperation between the pension fund and the multifunctional center itself. Today this service is provided in the MFC in all major cities of the country.
Using the Internet and the state service portal (gosuslugi.ru). In this case, the application and all the necessary documents are submitted through the Internet in electronic form on the official portal of public services. But to submit documents, you must have a confirmed account in the unified identification and authentication system, in other words, ESIA. After the electronic application has been submitted through the state portal, the pensioner must, within 5 working days, bring all the documents necessary for recalculation to the branch of the pension fund to which the application was submitted. If the documents are not provided during this time, then the application will not be considered either, and it will need to be submitted again.
A registered letter through the mail of Russia. When using this method, the pensioner will have to independently fill out an application for recalculation, which is provided in the form approved by law. A sample of filling out this application is located on the official portal of the pension fund. But all the originals of the documents, on the basis of which the recalculation and supplement to the pension for children will be made to pensioners, will not be sent by registered mail by mail. It is necessary to send in advance photocopies of all documents and certify them with a notary. It is worth knowing that certification of documents by a notary is a paid service.

Documents that will be needed to register a surcharge

The pension for children born before 1990 and after this date will be recalculated only to those pensioners who took care of children before they reached the age of 1.5 years and retired before 2015. Recipients of insurance pension and disability pension benefit are eligible to apply for recalculation.

The recalculation is carried out directly on the basis of an application written by a pensioner, which is submitted to the territorial branch of the pension fund, which makes the payment of pension accruals. Since it is in this pension fund that the pensioner's pension file is located, on the basis of which the pension itself will be recalculated and the additional payment for the children born will be calculated.

Since the usual declarative recalculation of the pension payment takes place, it is required to write the usual standard statement, which is approved at the legislative level, in particular, by the Order of the Ministry of Labor of the Russian Federation of January 19, 2016 No. 14n. this statement is indicated in the second annex to the administrative regulations for the provision of public services when assigning a pension.

In addition to the completed application, you must attach documents that are in personal storage with the pensioner, these are:

A pensioner's identity card is usually a passport.
Certificate of compulsory pension insurance, in other words SNILS.

In accordance with the law "On Insurance Pensions" of Article 23, Clause 2, an application for recalculation of pension payments is accepted directly, provided that the pensioner submits all the documents that are required for its implementation.

To begin with, confirmation of the availability of non-insurance periods for a given pensioner is based on the documents that are stored in the pension file, stored in the department of the pension fund, as well as on the basis of the personalized accounting information that is at the disposal of the employees of the pension fund.

But if the information about non-insurance periods, that is, maternity leave until the child reaches 1.5 years of age, is incomplete or absent altogether, then in order to recalculate it, the pensioner must confirm it on his own, providing an additional package of documents for this:

Birth certificates for each child who was cared for, if they are absent, then you can order a certificate of the birth of children at the registry office.
Documents that will confirm that the children are one and a half years old. As such a document, any document that was issued to a child by state authorities at a later age can act, that is, you can provide a child's passport, a school leaving certificate, a diploma of graduation from a higher education institution, a military ID or any other document.

If a pensioner submits a birth certificate for children, and it contains a stamp on the receipt of a Russian passport by a child after he has reached the age of 14, then another supporting document will not be required, since this mark will be enough for employees of the pension fund. And on the basis of these documents, a recalculation will be made and, with a positive decision, an increase in the pension for children for pensioners will be assigned.
