One of the main indicators of the development of the modern state is social protection, under which are absolutely all segments of the population living in the country. Some categories of citizens are treated with special trepidation. Single mothers, large families and low-income families, people with disabilities - all these people are in difficult life situations and cannot be dealt with without the help of the state.
Disabled 3 groups laid benefits
One of the largest groups among those listed is people with disabilities. It is known that in Russia a specific disability group is a determining factor in the social support of citizens. It follows that, for example, the amount of benefits for a disabled person of group 3 will differ significantly from the assistance provided to a person with group 1.
In addition, the provision of benefits and allowances takes place both at the national federal level and in the localities. The regional leadership policy of certain areas is sometimes implemented with an extraordinary approach.
It follows that before applying for the appointment of benefits, it is necessary to find out exactly what a disabled person of group 3 can apply for and what benefits are available.
At the highest state level, the rationality of the provision of appropriate benefits and allowances is often reviewed. The assistance that people with disabilities use varies from year to year, due to which some existing positions are canceled periodically or, on the contrary, additional ones are added. The main reason for providing such social support to vulnerable groups of the population can be called the fact that these people are not able to provide for themselves and to carry out full-time work. This is, as a rule, the only, but the most significant factor, determining this category of people as socially vulnerable.
The specifics of determining the benefits and benefits for the disabled
Another nuance that is worth noting is that, as it might seem at first glance, deciding on the list of assistance that is eligible will not be difficult. However, this is not quite true. To find all the legal privileges granted to people with disabilities of group 3, you will have to raise more than one regulatory document. Issues in which people with disabilities can count on the help of the state are not codified, scattered across many laws and regulations. In the process of searching for evidence of the right to use this or that privilege, a disabled person of 3 groups will be surprised more than once. What benefits one person does not mean that another will have the same package of social guarantees.
A vivid example of this is the right of a person with disabilities to travel freely on the territory of a city or a suburb. However, it also happens that the rights of persons with disabilities in another region do not imply the existence of this clause. Moreover, some alternative options may be assigned instead.
The following confirmation of the uneven distribution of state support is that such benefits for people with disabilities (general illness, group 3), such as annual free treatment in a sanatorium and the right to travel without payment to the location of the medical institution, are provided in the absence of permanent employment. An officially non-employed person has the opportunity to use such a chance. At the same time, a working disabled person of group 3, whose benefits do not include such an item in his list, will not be able to use this right.
Free medical supplies are provided to some categories of the population. Meanwhile, you do not have to rely on expensive drugs. The approved document, called a social package, contains the entire list of drugs that a person with an appropriate disease can receive only in a pharmacy designed for these purposes.
Where can I find out about benefits for a disabled person of group 3?
Wanting to find out what a disabled person of group 3 can claim, what benefits are available and how to use them, it is better to contact the social security authorities at the place of residence. Familiarization with the Labor Code will not be superfluous. People with disabilities, having a 3 group, but continuing to work, will be able to find in this law and emphasize for themselves quite important aspects. People with disabilities most often ask questions related to free medicines, orthopedic products, and other items necessary for full-fledged life activity directly in polyclinics and pharmacies.
Reliably inform the person who applied for this or that moment regarding benefits, allowances, special rights, etc., can only be done in the corresponding organization.
Tax incentives for persons with disabilities
Among state privileges granted to unprotected sections of the population, a significant place is occupied by tax privileges for disabled people of 3 groups. Here, the greatest amount of assistance is provided to people with disabilities who have disabilities since childhood. In particular, they are exempted from paying property taxes of individuals, registration fees in the event of a desire to engage in business. They also do not pay a fiscal fee for obtaining a warrant for a dwelling. Benefits for people with disabilities (general disease, group 3) who do not have the status of childhood disabilities are also provided.
As a rule, such people have the right not to pay tax if they receive a car. However, in order to use the appropriate transportation benefits, disabled people of group 3 must make sure that there are several conditions:
- the vehicle must be specially equipped for the needs of people with disabilities;
- car power does not exceed 100 liters. with.;
- social security authorities should have assisted in obtaining this vehicle in the appropriate legal order.
Utility discounts for the disabled
Benefits for utilities - this is what is of particular interest to the poorly protected layers of citizens. For single mothers and large families, the opportunity to save on rent, electricity, water, etc. is a huge plus. In particular, a disabled pensioner of the 3rd group will be especially happy with such privileges from the state. Benefits for paying utility bills are a 50 percent discount on all types of amenities provided by municipal services, including electricity, gas, central heating, cold and hot water, garbage collection, etc. In addition, the benefits of this unit include and half payment for living in non-profit housing.
Also, benefits for utilities include a 50% payment for heating if a disabled person of group 3 lives in a room without individual heating of the room.
Housing benefits for the disabled
The next group of preferential rights should include housing. Few people know that people with disabilities of group 3 rely on additional living space. Despite the fact that this is not a huge spacious apartment, but just a room, for most people this item is of great importance. However, only people with disabilities of 3 groups whose diseases belong to the list approved by law can apply for moving to a new place of residence.
For this, it is necessary to register with the social protection authorities regarding changes in living conditions, with the further goal of obtaining housing in the houses of the municipal or federal housing stock. Payment for housing will be charged in a single amount, even if the area of the premises provided exceeds the norms set for one person.
Also, an important point here is the rights of persons with disabilities regarding the safety of their living space allocated by social authorities, but here we are talking only about the absence due to a good reason (for example, inpatient treatment in a special type of institution). In this case, the right to receive a land plot first and foremost remains with disabled people of group 3.
Features of medical programs for people with the 3rd disability group
Benefits to a disabled person of group 3 in Moscow or any other Russian regions also imply special medical care, which is quite natural, because people with disabilities constantly need to undergo additional courses of treatment. In this regard, the state took care of them by providing a 50 percent discount on the purchase of goods that are on the doctor’s prescription. And here a small amendment also plays a role: this right applies only to unemployed persons.
Moreover, all disabled people of group 3 have the opportunity to undergo inpatient or outpatient treatment, they are given the right to provide timely qualified medical care on an absolutely free or preferential basis, and they must also be provided with all the necessary technical means for rehabilitation or prosthetic, orthopedic products.
Disabled person 3 groups, continuing work
In the labor legislation on the disabled, 3 groups were also not forgotten. Working people must create at the enterprise all the necessary conditions for carrying out labor activities in parallel with a personal rehabilitation program. To worry that the situation of people with disabilities will be an order of magnitude lower should not be, since the law obliged the employer in no case to infringe on the rights of persons with disabilities of any group, in comparison with other full-time employees. Salaries, the number of hours for rest and working hours, the duration of annual and additional vacations - all this cannot be less than other employees.
Similarly with other employees, a disabled person of group 3 who continues to work on the basis of an application can take a vacation at his own expense, which should not exceed 60 calendar days in total for the whole year.
An employer does not have the right to involve an employee with a 3 disability group in overtime work, work on holidays, weekends, and also at night. However, if the employee agrees to such working conditions and there are no medical contraindications, then there are no barriers to the implementation of activities in this form.
Tax deduction for disabled people
The state exempted the working disabled person from paying insurance payments and contributions to multiple funds: the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation, the State Employment Fund, and the Social Insurance Fund. This primarily concerns citizens who are registered as individual entrepreneurs and receive disability benefits.
A monthly tax deduction of 500 rubles is also a right for which a working disabled person of 3 groups can count. What privileges a person has in the process of paying taxes will become clear after familiarizing himself with the Tax Code of the Russian Federation. Article 218 of this document states that only disabled people from childhood can apply for this deduction for each month of the tax period.
Fringe benefits
The remaining benefits that should be received in Russia by all disabled people of group 3 are assigned in the event of:
- recognition and confirmation of the presence of disability due to complications that occurred after routine vaccination (monthly compensation in the amount of about 1000 rubles is supposed);
- payment of the insurance amount stipulated by the contract of compulsory insurance of civil liability for an automobile provided legally by social protection authorities (in this case, a disabled person of group 3 must be reimbursed half of the insurance payment).
- the impossibility of further work in the specialty in accordance with professional training (the state provides the opportunity to receive additional education on free grounds in the field of public service).
If a disabled person of 3 groups - a child
A separate issue is the benefits provided to children with disabilities, having a 3 group. The state could not leave this category of the population without attention, therefore they can use all their rights, starting from the smallest years.
Firstly, such children are given the opportunity of extraordinary admission to pre-school institutions, as well as the chance to go through a separate competition when submitting documents to the chosen institution of higher education. For disabled children there is a special state program, which includes separate budget places.
Conclusion
We should not forget that the local authorities have some autonomy in the framework of decentralization of the management process. Each region has the right to choose those privileges for the most vulnerable segments of the population, which employees of this particular state body will consider necessary. To be always up to date and not to lose what is required by law, you must independently seek information on benefits, allowances and discounts.
Often, benefits are retirement benefits, supplementary benefits. Sometimes local governments decide to provide subsidies. Perhaps for some, such amounts will seem modest, but for the disabled it is sometimes a lifeline. In addition, numerous benefits will allow a person, not lagging behind others, to enjoy the benefits of modern civilization.
