The main goal of the maternity capital program, which has been operating in Russia for a long time, is to provide financial support to families where two or more of their own or adopted children are brought up. The decision to introduce this program was made in 2007. The amount of capital in 2017 amounted to 453 thousand rubles. 26 kopecks
Already after the referendum, the question arose: how and when will Crimeans get maternity capital. Initially, it was assumed that in the Crimea maternity capital will begin to be issued in March 2014. But it was decided to postpone this date. As a result, the program implementation period was postponed to the beginning of 2015. Consider the answers to the following basic questions regarding this program: how to get maternity capital for Crimeans, who are entitled to a Certificate, how it can be used.
Program duration
Currently, the program has been extended until the end of 2018. But the government is considering an extension to 2025. Moreover, the use of the Certificate is not limited.
Maternity capital for Crimeans: who should
There are certain parameters that an applicant must meet to receive funds for this program. Maternity capital for Crimeans who should be? Primarily:
- women who raise two or more of their own or adopted children;
- men who independently raise two or more adopted children;
- men (adoptive parents) in the event that the mother lost the opportunity to receive money;
- the child himself, in cases where the parents or adoptive parents lost the opportunity to receive funds under the program.
It is important to take into account the nuance that those residents of the Crimea whose children were born after 2007 can take advantage of the program. It is important to note that those who are entitled to maternal family capital must necessarily be citizens of the Russian Federation.
Parents who have been deprived of parental rights to a child cannot receive state assistance. And also those families where the children during the adoption period were stepdaughters and stepsons.
You can use the Certificate on the territory of the Crimean Peninsula once. That is, if a family has already received help for a second child, then it can no longer count on a Certificate at the birth of subsequent children.
Issuing a Certificate
To apply for a Certificate, you must submit an application and the necessary documents to the Pension Fund. After considering the request, a decision will be made to satisfy the request or to refuse. It is adopted by the relevant authorities within a month. In this case, a decision on this issue will be sent to the applicant in writing.
The maternal captain is not taxed, is indexed annually, and in the event of a divorce, it remains with the mother, who decides how to dispose of it.
List of required documents
- Statement.
- Applicant's passport and its copy.
- Original and copies of birth certificates of children.
- Proof of citizenship of the Russian Federation of the child for whom the funds are received.
- SNILS of the applicant and children.
- Certificate of marriage or divorce.
What are the features of the design of the Certificate for Crimeans
Currently, capital registration in the Crimea and the city of Sevastopol is associated with a number of bureaucratic difficulties. Crimean women who are citizens of Russia will receive maternity capital.
If the child was born after a referendum (03/18/2014), then a Russian document must be received for him. At the birth of a child earlier than the specified date, his Ukrainian documents translated into Russian will do.
Using Certificate
The peculiarity of this program is that funds can only be used for purposes fixed by the legislation of the Russian Federation:
- Housing solution. This is the most requested use of the Certificate. Approximately 85% of Russians use state aid to pay off their mortgages, purchase an apartment or build a house. This method is the only way with which you can use the Certificate before the child is three years old. You can also spend money on the reconstruction of housing, that is, to increase living space. At the same time, reconstruction can be done independently, or you can use the services of a contractor.
- Getting an education. For example, to pay a kindergarten or university to any child in the family who has not reached the age of 25.
- As a mother's funded pension.
It is not allowed to withdraw or sell the Certificate, as well as repay utility debt with it. Also, you cannot purchase a car or additional suburban property with these funds. In case of misuse of funds, criminal proceedings will be instituted against such persons.
Thus, since 2015, it became possible to draw up maternity capital for Crimeans. Who is entitled to maternity capital and how to use it are issues that concern many. Currently, many residents of the Crimea have received Hand Certificates, but they do not know how to use them. The fact is that in Crimea the procedure for obtaining capital is somewhat complicated by bureaucratic nuances. In addition, there are many more inaccuracies in the implementation of the program. It is expected that over time these problems will be solved, and the procedure for issuing and using the Certificate on the peninsula will be simplified.
In recent years, the government has raised the issue of lowering the budget for the maternity capital program. It is planned to make a number of changes to the program regulations. The budget for the program will be reduced so that assistance is provided only to large families. A complete cancellation of the program, which had a positive effect on the birth rate of the country, should not be expected.
