In Russia, the order of payment of benefits for the third child has changed
The procedure for payment of benefits for the third child in Russia has been changed. This is reported by the Ministry of Labor.
From January 2019 primary responsibility for payments will fall on the federal budget. The regions will pay only one third of the total amount. Previously, it was the opposite - most of the regions paid, and only a third of the benefit was co-financed by the state.
The amount of the benefit for the third child, therefore, is different in each region. It depends on the size of the subsistence minimum established by the governments of regions, territories and republics.
For example, in Bashkiria today, a mother with many children receives a third and subsequent child before he reaches the age of three 8993 rubles. A similar allowance in the Chukotka Autonomous Region is 22 thousand rubles a month, and in the Belgorod region the allowance for a third baby does not exceed 8 thousand rubles.
Families with a third or subsequent child can count on such a benefit if the level of income of family members does not exceed the minimum subsistence value for each.
