Large families: benefits, payments, travel, plots

St. Petersburg is one of 3 cities of federal significance. The granted status means that the locality is a separate subject of the Russian Federation with a wider range of rights. Intra-city municipalities solve many social problems of citizens.

Particular attention is paid to the demographic issue and the protection of the rights of minors. Help for large families in St. Petersburg consists of providing various benefits (labor, social) and benefits for the maintenance of dependents.

Privileges are financed by regional and federal authorities.

Definition of the term "large family"

At the federal level, there is no information on the number of children required to assign a parent the status of “large family.” The right has been transferred to regional authorities. In St. Petersburg, it is customary to consider a family to be “large” if it consists of 1 or 2 parents and 3 dependents. Only minor Russian citizens are taken into account. You can lose your status in the following cases:

• The parents filed for divorce and “divided” the children. If all dependents remain with the mother or father, then the benefits will continue.
• An adopted or natural child has reached the age of majority or has been emancipated due to the start of work or marriage.
• One of the children died.

In many large cities, there is a law on retention of status until one of the dependents reaches the age of 23, if he continues to live with his parents and is studying full-time. The rule does not apply to St. Petersburg.

Status confirmation

Benefits are provided to large families in St. Petersburg if they have the appropriate certificate. The algorithm for obtaining a document was first approved in 2006. A “green book” was issued. The Social Policy Committee then decided to abolish the current format of the form.

Since 2013, “having many children” has been confirmed by a certificate written on A4 sheet. To complete the document, you will need to visit the multifunctional center, the city administration, or go to the St. Petersburg website. The service is free. Those wishing to obtain a certificate must write an application and attach a package of documents to it:

• identification;
• registration data;
• children's metrics;
• power of attorney if a third person acts instead of a parent;
• certificates of registration or dissolution of marriage.

A sample application is given in Resolution 130 of the Committee on Social Policy of St. Petersburg. The period for issuing a certificate does not exceed 45 days from the date of application. Authorized persons have no right to refuse service.

Help for large families

In St. Petersburg, the norms of the Social Code, approved by local authorities in 2011, apply. Families with 3 or more children under the age of majority living under the same roof are entitled to federal and regional privileges.

This refers to benefits, labor benefits, discounts for services and reimbursement of expenses. The allocation of an apartment, land or money for the purchase of housing is carried out in the general manner, if there is an emergency. The need is documented.

Approximate statistics of large families in St. Petersburg and the assistance provided to them are given in the list:

• In 2017, 6 thousand certificates were issued. The total number of families with at least 3 children in St. Petersburg is 31,373.
• 29 thousand applications from parents with many children were submitted for the provision of a site for building a house. Priority is given to 1.5 thousand families, 1/3 of which are raising 5 or more children, and 2/3 have a disabled child.
• From 2011 to 2017, more than 4 thousand applications were approved to improve housing conditions by providing apartments under a social tenancy agreement. The authorities satisfied almost 2 thousand requests from parents with many children over the same period of time, allocating free subsidies and providing targeted programs.
• As of January 1, 2018, there were almost 4.5 thousand families in need of housing.

Social support increases in direct proportion to the number of dependents. The average income of each family member is not taken into account. The exception is the calculation of the monthly payment for the 3rd and subsequent children. The moment 606 is regulated by the Decree of the head of state. Additional assistance is provided to families caring for a disabled child.

Privileges provided by the federal authorities

The list of federal benefits is compiled by the constituent entities of the Russian Federation on the basis of Presidential Decree 250 of 1992. Each region is determined by the criteria for assigning the status of “large family” and follows the order of the head of state. The general list of privileges is as follows:

• Payment of utilities is no more than 70% of the total amount. In the absence of central heating, a 30% discount is given on raw materials for heating. Average prices for the region are taken into account.
• Priority allocation of places in kindergartens.
• Favorable mortgage payment terms.
• Free visits to local theaters, museums, exhibitions and other cultural institutions during the day once a month.
• Free medicines for sick children under 6 years of age. The drugs must be included in the prescription from the doctor.

• Work in flexible conditions, taking into account the need to raise 3 or more children.
• Free travel on public transport. The benefit applies to dependents and one accompanying parent.
• Obtaining a land plot. If we are talking about organizing a farm, then in the future payment will be made on preferential terms.

The medal is awarded to parents who are raising at least 7 children. Additionally, the state provides a one-time payment of 100 thousand rubles.

The beneficiary has the right to apply for federal and regional assistance at the same time. You will have to determine the source of funding if the privilege is present in both lists. To complete the necessary documents, you may need Rosreestr, a social security department, a pension fund or a tax service. The choice depends on the specific benefit taken.

Available for benefits

Parents with many children spend large sums on purchasing things and products to support their dependents. The essence of government assistance is to cover expenses and allocate funds for the purchase of vital items. The full list of benefits that a resident of St. Petersburg can claim is given in the table:

Parents supporting 3 or more children are recognized as having many children in St. Petersburg. The status makes it possible to count on regional and federal benefits and various benefits. To receive government assistance, parents will have to obtain a certificate confirming the “large family” of the family. Then all you have to do is contact the authority responsible for providing the benefit.

Payments and benefits for large families in St. Petersburg. Registration procedure and features of assigning privileges.

Privileges for large families in St. Petersburg

Support for families with children is one of the directions in state policy in the social sphere. Benefits and benefits are provided to citizens from the moment of pregnancy and continue until the child reaches adulthood.

Measures to help large families are determined at the regional level. Let's consider the basic areas of support for families with children in St. Petersburg.

Large family: definition

At the federal level, a large family is recognized as a group of citizens where more than two children under age are being raised at the same time.

In some regions, benefits are provided only if there are four children; this is typical for regions with a high birth rate, in particular these include Tyva, Chechnya, and Ingushetia.

When counting minor family members, not only those who were born, but also adopted children are taken into account.

The regulatory act regulating the concept of a large family in Russia is Presidential Decree 431 of 1992, as amended in 2003. In accordance with it, the right to determine the parameters of a large family belongs to the executive power of the subjects.

In St. Petersburg, a group of citizens living together is considered to have many children, raising three minor children. To obtain privileges, you must contact the local department of social protection of the population and present a package of documents, including three birth certificates for children. Parents are given a special certificate, which is the basis for the assignment of benefits and benefits.

Low-income groups are considered to be those where the average per capita income per family member is less than the subsistence minimum established in the region. In the Northern Capital for the first quarter of 2020, its value is 11,868 rubles. 20 kopecks For such groups, special benefits and benefits are provided that are not available to citizens with high salaries.

Large family and benefits in St. Petersburg: grounds

According to information, four and a half thousand large families officially live in St. Petersburg. More than two-thirds of the total need to improve their living conditions. In the locality, one and a half thousand small groups with five or more children and four hundred include persons with disabilities under eighteen years of age.

In January of this year, a couple of amendments were made to regional legislation. Based on accepted standards, large families of the Northern capital receive the following types of benefits:

• discount on utilities provided once a year - 30% for a family with three or four minors, 50% for those with more than five mice;
• preferential purchase of fuel in the absence of central heating in the house;
• compensation for major repairs, subject to timely payment of utility bills;
• free visits by children to cultural sites that are under the jurisdiction of the executive branch.

Also, starting in 2020, large families in need of housing improvements and who are on the waiting list acquire the right to receive funds to purchase an apartment or house. The payment amount will be three million rubles.

This money can be used to purchase a two-room apartment in a new building within the city.

The very existence of the possibility of choosing between expedited receipt and waiting in line will help resolve the issue of resettlement of those in dire need and those who are not on the waiting list.

Benefits for large families in St. Petersburg: table

1. Monthly benefits for children from large families are provided regardless of family income and are assigned depending on the age of the child:

• for a child from 0 to 1.5 years - in the amount of 6,554 rubles. Transferred to a bank card. The payment is assigned if the woman does not work;

* The so-called “children’s” card is issued through the MFC. It can only be used to pay for goods by bank transfer in certain children's stores.

REGIONAL MATERNITY CAPITAL

Regional maternity capital is 154,347 rubles. B is issued after the birth of the third child.

Funds from maternal regional capital can be used for:

• acquisition of residential premises in St. Petersburg and the Leningrad region;
• repayment of the mortgage loan (principal and interest);
• construction of a summer house;
• children receiving services:
  • medical;
  • educational institutions of any type and form of ownership;
  • rehabilitation;
  • sanatorium-resort;
  • health
• purchase of a car (only Russian-made).

Attention! Regional maternity capital is reimbursable in nature - you first pay for the required service yourself, and then submit documents through the MFC to get the money back.

• The certificate is issued once, that is, at the birth of subsequent children you will not be able to receive it again.
• Personal experience
• I used this regional maternity capital to pay for clubs. I brought the following documents to the MFC:
•  — Passport, — Certificate “Maternity (family) capital in St. Petersburg,” — Receipts of payment (where it should be indicated “according to agreement No. ... from such and such a date”), — Agreement for the provision of paid services, signed by the educational organization, — Copy licenses to carry out educational activities, - Bank account details
• A month later the money was transferred to my bank card.
• PROVISION OF LAND (LAND CERTIFICATE)  

A large family has the right to apply for a plot of land from the state, but the queue to receive it moves very slowly. In this regard, the authorities of St. Petersburg have developed an additional support measure - a land certificate.

The land certificate has a cost of 355,660 rubles. With its help, you can buy a plot of land for summer cottage construction in any region of the Russian Federation.

It is of a compensatory nature - you first pay for the purchase of the plot yourself, and then go to the MFC with the necessary documents to return the money.

• the land plot must be purchased in full (purchase in shares is not reimbursed);
• permitted use of land - for summer cottage construction, for gardening (and vegetable gardening).

The purchase can be made without an initial investment if you agree with the seller on an additional agreement, which states that the transaction will be recognized as valid after the money is credited from the Pension Fund.

Or if you are making a deal with people who are willing to wait and trust you in this matter.

Attention! A change in legislation came into force on September 1, 2019. Now, when purchasing a plot, it is mandatory to allocate shares.

1. KINDERGARTEN
2. Large families have the right to priority when enrolling a child in kindergarten.
3. As well as a 70% discount on kindergarten fees for the third child and subsequent children in the family.
4. FAMILY KINDERGARTEN (FDC)

A mother of many children can open a family kindergarten at home (if she has three preschool children from 2 months to 7 years or she is ready to take someone to her child care center).

This is not easy to do - you need to properly prepare the premises, obtain signatures from the fire inspectorate, Rospotrebnadzor, the education committee, etc. Not easy, but theoretically possible.

At the moment, 3 family kindergartens are open in St. Petersburg.

Of course, for starters, it’s better to read the experience of mothers in setting up a family kindergarten.

SDS opening bonuses:

• you have work experience in your work book;
• you receive a salary;
• the kindergarten to which you are assigned provides meals;
• the children are with you.

• SCHOOL
• If you have a schoolchild in your family, then once a year you can receive a compensation payment in the amount of 4,467 rubles.
• Schoolchildren from large families are provided with free travel, as well as school meals (breakfast and lunch).
• TRAVEL BY ELECTRIC TRAINS 
• From April 27 to October 31 inclusive, members of a large family can travel on electric trains at a cost of 10% of the current fare.

Attention! The benefit is provided for travel by public railway transport on commuter trains.

That is, for little money you can travel on an electric train and even on a Lastochka, but only if the ticket is sold without specifying the seats.

DISCOUNTS ON AIR TICKETS

Since November 2018, large families can count on discounted air tickets. True, not throughout Russia, but only in the Far East, Kaliningrad and Simferopol. Discount tickets are sold only by airlines that participate in the government subsidy program. In this case, part of the cost of a plane ticket for large families is paid to the airlines by the state.

1. SANATORIUM AND HEALTH RECREATION FOR CHILDREN
2. The government of St. Petersburg pays the full cost of stay of children from large families in children's health camps and sanatoriums.
3. PLACEMENT ON THE HOUSING QUEUE/SUBSIDY
4. Any resident of St. Petersburg who is recognized as in need of improved living conditions can get on the waiting list to improve their living conditions, but a large family has serious advantages:
5. - you are not required to provide proof of income,

- you have priority in the housing queue - a benefit for many children. However, do not forget that there are even higher priority categories of citizens. For example, families with 5 or more children, as well as families with a disabled child.

I will not list the documents required to be placed on the housing queue, as there are a lot of nuances. It is better to go to the housing department of your area with the documents and consult there. Or start by reading people’s experiences in this matter.

If you do not want to wait to receive an apartment from the state (yes, housing is provided, but you will have to wait for several years), you can take advantage of a subsidy from the state. It's much faster.

In addition, you can choose the area you need. The amounts allocated vary depending on your situation.

It is better, again, to take your documents to the City Center for Housing Subsidies and consult with specialists.

• TRANSPORT TAX BENEFITS
• One of the parents registered in St. Petersburg is exempt from paying tax.
• The benefit is provided for one vehicle registered to the applicant, provided that this vehicle has an engine power of up to 150 horsepower inclusive.
• COMPENSATION FOR HOUSING UTILITIES

• 30% - if there are three minor children in the family;
• 40% - if there are four to seven minor children in the family

VISITING CULTURAL AND ENTERTAINMENT ESTABLISHMENTS

Families with many children can visit museums, exhibitions, zoos, active recreation parks, etc. for free (or at a discount).

All establishments implement the right of large families to discount tickets in different ways.

Somewhere, for example, there is always free admission (Hermitage, Russian Museum, Zoological Museum, etc.).

Some establishments have free admission only once a month (for example, you can enter the zoo for free on the 1st Saturday of every month, the Ethnographic Museum on the 1st Sunday of every month, etc.). And sometimes you can count on a discount, as, for example, at the Oceanarium.

I advise you to look at information on websites in advance when planning your trip.

Personal experience:

Sometimes you can check at the box office. So, for example, while walking around the Peter and Paul Fortress, we stopped by a small exhibition. There were no benefits indicated at their ticket office, but when I checked, it turned out that admission was free for large families.

Or we wanted to visit a water park. When I began to study information on the Internet, it turned out that the water park closest to us does not have benefits for large families. In the end, we went to the one that was further away, since the savings were significant.

 

PAYMENTS AND BENEFITS FOR POOR FAMILIES

A low-income family is a family with an average per capita income below one and a half times the subsistence minimum per capita established in St. Petersburg for the last quarter.

Attention! If the mother does not work, then until the youngest turns three years old, she has the right to bring her work certificate instead of income certificates.

A low-income family may qualify for the following types of benefits:

1. Monthly cash payment in the amount of 10,594 rubles. Transferred to a bank card from the birth of the third child until he turns 3 years old. The benefit must be renewed every year.

This payment is assigned once, that is, if you issued it for the third child, then it will not be approved for the fourth and subsequent children.

Attention! If you apply for a low-income payment, then this child does not receive monthly benefits on the “children’s” card from birth to 3 years.

A low-income family can apply for a subsidy to pay for housing and communal services. In addition to compensation for housing and communal services (see above). This is a complex payment with nuances. I’ll write about her in more detail, because the MFC doesn’t really like her (as they told me recently when I submitted documents for her) and few people tell anyone about her.

Needed:

1. Applicant's passport (must be submitted by the owner of the premises)
2. Husband/wife passport
3. Marriage registration certificate
4. Certificate of registration of property rights (documents for the apartment)
5. Certificate of large families
6. Income certificates
7. Paid utility bills without arrears
8. Birth certificates for all children
9. Account details

Read also: Apply for child support retroactively: is it possible?

Attention! If the apartment has owners other than your family, then they must personally come with you to the MFC with their passports and fill out the necessary applications.

Interestingly, it is difficult to know in advance how much you will be paid, because each case is considered individually.

If your application is approved, you will receive subsidies every month for six months.

1. State social assistance

This is also a mysterious service that the MFC will not tell you about. Because they consider each application individually - they calculate the number of people in the family, income, all benefits due, etc. and so on. Accordingly, everyone's payout is different.

I myself did not apply for such a benefit. I was told that they can pay 10-20-30 and even 40 thousand at a time. Depending on the nuances of the situation and the amount of money that the state currently has for such situations.

1. Details can be found here.
2. FOR FAMILIES WITH 5 OR 7 CHILDREN
3. Families with 7 or more minor children have the right to a passenger minibus from the state
4. A woman who has given birth to 5 or more children has the right to retire early.

For the worthy upbringing of five or more children, they can be awarded the honorary title of St. Petersburg “For Merit in Raising Children” Order. And a family with 7 or more children can be given the Order of Parental Glory. From 10 children – Order “Mother Heroine”

Compensations (payments) to large families in St. Petersburg

Large families in St. Petersburg can enjoy a number of benefits: tax, social, medical, housing.

For each of them, individual criteria and requirements are established, without which it will not be possible to issue preferences.

Let's look at what benefits are provided to families with many children in St. Petersburg, how and where to apply for them, and what documents will be needed.

Which families are considered large

According to Decree of the President of the Russian Federation dated May 5, 1992 No. 431, regional authorities have the right to independently determine the categories of families that can be classified as large families and enjoy benefits. In St. Petersburg, parents with more than three minor children are considered to have many children. Also, a single parent with more than three children can receive the status of having many children.

Another important criterion is the minority of all three children. If the eldest child turns 18 years old, the status is canceled. An exception is the full-time education of an older adult child at a university: in this case, benefits will be provided until he reaches 23 years of age or until he receives a diploma.

Note! According to the law, adoptive parents have the same rights as parents, therefore, if you have adopted children, and the total number of minors is 3 or more, we can also apply for the status of having many children and enjoy benefits.

The persons presented above can obtain the status of parents of many children, with the exception of certain categories of citizens:

• Convicted of a crime committed against their own children;
• Deprived of parental rights;
• Those who have transferred children into the care of another person if there is no desire to engage in their upbringing and development.

Also, when determining status, children under 18 years of age who are married are not taken into account - in this case they are recognized as emancipated, and responsibility for their maintenance rests with the spouses (Article 89 of the RF IC).

Children who are in correctional colonies for committing crimes, as well as those transferred for upbringing and maintenance to state and municipal institutions - boarding schools, rehabilitation centers for the disabled, etc., are also not taken into account.

If there are no “contraindications”, and the parents have the right to be considered as having many children and enjoy benefits, one of them needs to issue a certificate - this document confirms the preferential status. Without it, you cannot get all the privileges.

“Supporting large families is one of the main strategies for the development of demography in the country. We are adjusting existing benefits and adding new ones to create favorable conditions for the birth and upbringing of every child.” V.V. Putin, President of the Russian Federation.

How to obtain a certificate for a large family

The certificate is issued by the Social Security authorities at the place of registration of the applicants. To get it, you need to take several steps:

1. Immediately after the birth of your third child, obtain a birth certificate; without it, the document will not be issued.
2. Collect all documents and submit to Social Security. In response, you will be given a notice of registration of the application indicating the deadline for the completion of the result. You must save it - you will need it in the future to obtain a certificate.
3. Wait for the results of the review. This usually takes from 10 to 30 days. The exact deadline is set by regional authorities.
4. Get a completed certificate.

Subsequently, the document can be used to receive all provided benefits. The basis for refusal to issue a certificate may be the lack of the right to privileges, the provision of an incomplete set of documents, or incorrect execution of the application. All deficiencies can be eliminated and the documents can be submitted again.

Important! In addition to a personal visit to Social Security, you can submit documents for a certificate through the MFC or the State Services portal. In the latter case, a verified account will be required. The state fee, regardless of the method of application for the issuance of a document, is not charged.

Documentation

When applying to Social Security for a certificate, you will need the following set of documents:

Name Where to get Validity period Application Download on our website Before actual submission Passports of parents and children over 14 years old Department of Internal Affairs of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, MFC Until personal data is changed, the age of replacement is reached Certificates for children under 14 years old registry office Until children reach 14 years old, after that passports are issued Certificate on family composition (to confirm cohabitation) MFC 1 month 3x4 photographs from the parent submitting the application Any photo studio Not limited Marriage registration certificate from the registry office Not established Certificate of divorce (for a single parent) Agreement or court decision to determine the place of residence of children ( for divorced people) Notary, court at the place of consideration of the process

Social Security employees make copies of all documents, and the originals are returned to the owners.

Example No. 1: issuing a certificate for a large family

The Parfenov family lives in St. Petersburg. In 2017, the couple had a second child, and they received federal maternity capital. A year later, their third child is born, and the mother decides to apply for a certificate of large families in order to enjoy an expanded list of benefits.

To obtain a certificate, a woman applies to Social Security at her place of registration. She is given the finished document within 15 days, after which she is busy applying for benefits.

Note! Benefits for large families are not automatically provided - each of them must be registered with the appropriate institution.

What benefits are provided to large families in St. Petersburg

Large families can enjoy a fairly large list of benefits in St. Petersburg, subject to several conditions:

• Availability of permanent registration in St. Petersburg;
• Three or more children;
• Executed certificate.

Also, individual benefits have their own conditions. Let's look at everything in more detail.

Social

Social benefits for families with many children in St. Petersburg mean the following:

• Providing free school uniforms – annually. An alternative option is payment of monetary compensation for its acquisition;
• Providing places in preschool institutions out of turn;
• Providing free breakfasts and lunches in schools;
• Free travel on public transport: city buses, metro, etc.

Beneficiaries can also visit museums and cultural institutions free of charge on designated days each month. To do this, it is enough to present a certificate of large families at the entrance or obtain tickets in advance from Social Security. The exact procedure for using the benefit is determined by each institution individually.

How to apply

If we are talking about free travel, then it is provided only for children of beneficiaries studying in any educational institutions in St. Petersburg. To do this, they are issued electronic travel tickets through Social Security or the MFC.

To use the right to free school meals, one of the parents only needs to contact the school administration and present a certificate of having many children.
