Maternity capital is paid for 3 children in some regions of Russia. This is the regional level of fertility support. In order to receive the money you are entitled to, you need to move to a permanent place of residence if you do not live in this region.

In general, the amount of maternity capital for 3 children in 2021 is about 150 thousand rubles. The largest amount of maternity capital for 3 children is provided to families in the Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrug (Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrug).

If she gives birth to another third child, then she will be entitled to another 350 thousand rubles if the child is born in the Yamal-Nenets Autonomous Okrug.

Let's take a closer look at the table where maternity capital is paid in Russia.

Is maternity capital given for a third child?

Families with a third child can receive cash payments from the federal budget if they have not applied for a family capital certificate for the second child. Maternity capital for 3 children is issued on a one-time basis. Funds are provided in the form of a certificate in the established form. You can spend money only for strictly defined purposes, non-cash . In many regions, territories and republics of the Russian Federation there is regional maternity capital for a third child.

Maternity capital for 3 children in 2018: amount

Maternity capital for a third child

Measures of social support for families with children in the form of maternity capital can be established not only at the state, but also at the regional level, and they are given not only for the second , but also at the birth or adoption of a third child or subsequent ones . However, this is possible subject to certain conditions:

1. State maternity capital in the amount of 453,026 rubles can be issued for 3 children, if the family for some reason have not exercised this right before, For example:
   if two older children were born or adopted before January 1, 2007, and the third appeared after the specified date (until December 31, 2021 inclusive);
2. if for some reason this was not done when the second child was born after January 1, 2007 (the law does not oblige a family to issue a certificate immediately - before subsequent children are born).
3. In many regions of Russia, the birth of a third child also entitles the family to receive another one—regional maternity capital. The procedure for its registration and use is established by the authorities of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation independently (therefore, the conditions of the programs in different regions of the country may differ significantly).

Although there is a widespread rumor on the Internet that in 2021 families with a third child will be entitled to maternity capital in the amount of 1.5 million rubles, there is no basis for it. The bill that proposed these changes was rejected back in 2015 .

Is maternity capital given for a third child?

The right to state maternity capital (the amount of which is 453 thousand rubles in 2021) at the birth of the third child is provided for by the same law on additional support for families with children as at the birth of the second. The following citizens of the Russian Federation may have such a right:

• women who gave birth or adopted a third child after January 1, 2007;
• men who are his only adoptive parents;
• fathers or adoptive parents if the mother has lost the right to maternal capital;
• the child himself (children in equal shares), if his parents or adoptive parents died or were deprived of parental rights.

The listed categories of recipients are entitled to federal maternity capital only if they have not taken advantage of such a support measure earlier! That is, if a certificate for mat capital has already been issued for a second child, you cannot apply for it again .

To register maternity capital in this case, it is necessary to fulfill a number of general conditions:

1. At the time of birth or adoption, the applicant must be a citizen of the Russian Federation.
2. The third child must also have Russian citizenship.
3. He must appear in the family no earlier than January 1, 2007 and no later than December 31, 2021 (provided that maternity capital was not issued for previous children).

The amount of mat capital in 2021 is 453,026 rubles. This value has not been indexed since 2015, and according to Art. 12 of Federal Law No. 444-FZ of December 19, 2016, the next increase is scheduled only for January 1, 2021 (planned by the Government at the level of 4%).

The procedure for obtaining a certificate for maternal capital in the Pension Fund of Russia

The procedure for obtaining a certificate for maternal (family) capital (MSC) for a third child is no different from the situation when parents apply for it at the birth of a second child.

In general, to obtain an MSK certificate, you must submit the appropriate application to the Pension Fund office at your place of residence (in person, by mail, through the MFC or government services portal) and the following documents:

• applicant's passport;
• birth certificate of the third, as well as the first and second children;
• in the case of adoption - a court decision on adoption;
• certificate of compulsory pension insurance (SNILS);
• documents confirming the Russian citizenship of the third child and the applicant.

The decision to issue a certificate will be made within a month from the date of registration of the application. After this, notification of the decision will be sent to the applicant within 5 days.

Regional maternity capital for a third child in 2018

In addition to federal maternity capital, parents or adoptive parents of a third child in most regions of the country can also count on receiving regional MSC.

The leadership of the constituent entities of the federation has the right to independently appoint additional measures to support families, including developing regional maternity capital programs.

As of 2021, such measures are in force in 72 constituent entities of the Russian Federation , of which in 61 regions - specifically in connection with the birth of a third and/or subsequent children (see.

more details in the analytical bulletin of the Federation Council).

The amount of regional maternity capital, conditions for receipt, as well as directions for disposing of funds can vary significantly in each specific subject of the country, which is largely determined by the capabilities of the regional budget .

The size of maternity capital for regional programs in different regions of the country can differ by an order of magnitude (10 times or more). For example:

• in the Kurgan region, for the third or subsequent child born from January 1, 2013 to December 31, 2014, regional maternity capital was issued in the form of a one-time payment in the amount of 25,000 rubles (Article 6.2, introduced by regional law of October 31, 2012 No. 55).
• in the Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrug (YNAO), families in which a third child was born or adopted are provided with regional maternity capital in the amount of 350,000 rubles (see Article 5 of District Law No. 73-ZAO dated 06/01/2011).

It is noteworthy that in the constituent entities of the Russian Federation, where the size of regional mat capital is more than 150 thousand.

rubles, there is a higher increase in the birth rate (over the period 2012-2015, the total fertility rate increased by 14.4% , while in regions where family capital is paid in the amount of less than 150 thousand.

rubles, this figure increased to a lesser extent - by 12.9% . From this we can conclude that there is a connection between the birth rate and the material support provided at the regional level to families with children.

Maternity capital 1.5 million rubles for 3 children in 2021

The bill on assigning state maternity capital for the third child in the amount of 1.5 million rubles was rejected back in 2015 , but rumors that this support measure was adopted and came into effect still do not stop.

Misunderstandings among Russian citizens are largely due to uncertainty regarding the future of the maternity capital program, which was typical until its extension in 2015 on the initiative of Vladimir Putin until December 31, 2021 inclusive.

At that time, there were no specific proposals in the Government to extend the program, so in July 2014, Belgorod deputies developed and submitted to the State Duma for consideration bill No. 571638-6, which proposed the following changes:

• provide the right to receive MSK from January 1, 2021 only to those families in which a third child was born or adopted;
• increase the size of certificates for this category of families to 1,500,000 rubles (1.5 million) with the need to use funds to improve housing conditions as a priority;
• continue to index the funds of the certificate for families who received it for their second child until December 31, 2021.

This bill was rejected by State Duma deputies on April 21, 2015 during consideration in the first reading. Despite the fact that the State Duma never returned to discuss the bill to increase maternity capital to 1.5 million rubles, many parents still believe that they will be able to receive this payment at the birth of their third child ( this is a misconception ).

Changes, latest news for 3 children

On January 1, 2021, on the initiative of Vladimir Putin, several new measures of social support for families with children at the birth of their third child began to take effect in Russia:

1. Families in which a third child was born from January 1, 2021 to December 31, 2022, can take part in the new housing loan program and purchase housing on the primary market at a rate of 6% . For this category of citizens, the subsidy period is 5 years . If a loan with a rate above 6% was received before the birth of the second or third child, but not earlier than 2021, then it can be refinanced .
2. Monthly payments for a third child under 3 years old, equal to the child's subsistence level, in another 10 regions of the country will be paid on the terms of state co-financing (previously 50 subjects of the Russian Federation fell under these conditions, but now there are 60 of them).

Maternity capital in 2021 for 3 children 1.5 million rubles.

A couple of years ago, a bill was sent to the State Duma of the Russian Federation for consideration, in which it was proposed to pay maternity capital for 3 children in the amount of 1.5 million rubles.

You will not be able to use this money at your own discretion, but it can be spent on improving your living conditions and purchasing an apartment.

For now, this bill remains a bill. There are chances that the bill will be adopted and come into force. But for now, maternity capital for 3 children is paid exclusively at the regional level in some areas, which you could see in the table above.

Classic maternity capital , which in 2018 amounts to 453 thousand rubles and is provided for the birth or adoption of a second child, is assistance from the federal state. Federal - this means the certificate is available to families in any corner of the country. Regional maternity capital, unlike federal capital, can only be obtained in a certain region, where local authorities allocate funds to support the birth rate.

Benefits for the birth of a third child in 2021

Do not forget that for the birth of a third child, women with children are also entitled to benefits in addition to maternity capital. Some of them also have a monetary equivalent, which cannot be ignored. After all, for any family with children, every penny matters. Let's look at the list of benefits provided for the birth of 3 children:

1. You can enroll your child in kindergarten without waiting in line. Moreover, if there are more than three children in a family, for example, twins or triplets were born, then not only the third child, but all the babies can be accommodated without a waiting list.
2. Until a child turns six years old, he or she is entitled to free medications as prescribed by a doctor.
3. Children from a large family (with three or more children) are entitled to free travel on public transport, as well as free lunches at school.
4. If a school attended by children from a large family requires the purchase of a school uniform, then for such families the children are entitled to it free of charge.
5. Also, in a family where a third child was born, the right to a subsidy for housing and communal services appears. It is 30% of monthly utility bills.
6. If the family has cars, then at the birth of the third child there is a benefit for paying transport tax, which is also important for a large family.
7. Unlike in the region, a family in which a third child is born can receive a free plot from the state. This point needs to be clarified at the social security department at your place of residence.
