Why is a certificate of maternity capital required?

• transfer of an incomplete package of documents;
• errors in the data provided
• full use of the certificate;
• a request that did not come from the owner of the capital.

When it is necessary to use the balance of funds, the form must be ordered in advance. The procedure for obtaining a certificate in any way is free. When the owner of the certificate cannot obtain the information himself, he must draw up a power of attorney, confirmed by a notary, in favor of another person.

Indexation of maternity capital

By Law of December 29, 2006 No. 256-FZ, for families who gave birth to or adopted a second child (or any subsequent child), the amount of maternity capital was initially set at 250 thousand rubles.

To ensure that the program does not lose its effectiveness, the state has provided a mechanism for increasing the subsidy paid through indexation, taking into account the level of consumer price inflation actually achieved according to statistics.

How did the size of maternity capital change?

* Consumer price index according to the Federal State Statistics Service of the Russian Federation

As you can see, in 2008 and 2009 indexation did not reach the level of price growth. Over the next two years, the economic situation in the country stabilized, which allowed the Government to increase the indexation coefficient, exceeding the actual rate of price growth.

Since 2012, indexing of maternity capital has not covered the rate of inflation. Thanks to the recalculation, the cost of the certificate in the period from 2007 to 2020 increased by 86.^% (from 250 thousand rubles to 466 ).

The amount of maternity capital in 2020

For the first time, starting from 2020, maternity capital will be paid at the birth of not only the second but also the first child.

In 2020, for the first time in the entire period that the program has been in effect, the state, due to the budget deficit, decided to abandon the indexation of maternal (family) capital. Therefore, in 2020 its value remained at the level of 2020 - 453,026 rubles .

In 2017-2018, the situation repeated itself: due to the difficult financial situation in Russia, it was decided to abandon the next indexation of maternity capital and its size remained the same: 453,026 rubles .

The amount of maternity capital in 2020 : 466,617 rubles for the 1st child and 616,617 rubles for the second child.

Simultaneously with the refusal of indexation, the exact deadline for completing the maternity capital program was determined - December 31, 2018. Now this period has been extended until 2026. Anyone who wants to use maternity capital must give birth or adopt a child before this date. You can obtain and use the certificate later.

Contact the Pension Fund for help

The body responsible for issuing state assistance to families with two children has been appointed by the Pension Fund. An application for the issuance of maternity capital is submitted to this institution, and there the applicant receives a document confirming the subsidy due. And, of course, all information on the remaining part of the monetary support issued is in the personal file of the certificate holder.

If there is a need to obtain a document certified by a regulatory authority indicating the remaining part of the capital, you need to visit the fund’s branch. You can make an appointment by phone or on the Pension Fund page.

To receive a certificate, you need to submit an application. The form is issued at the window of the government agency. A fund employee will help you fill out the application correctly and check the availability of documents. You must present:

1. Passport of the holder of the certificate for the mat. help.
2. Certificate issued in the name of the applicant.
3. Child's birth certificate.
4. SNILS (it’s faster and easier to find a person in the PF database).

The application processing period is officially 30 days. But in fact, on paper, evidence of the cash balance of capital is issued much earlier. This usually takes 3 – 5 days.

You can send a request to receive notification of the remaining share of the family capital in the account through the post office. In this case, an application is drawn up in free form, which indicates the personal data of the person applying, the number of the certificate and SNILS.

The essence of the question is stated. Supplement the application with copies of the applicant’s passport and maternity capital certificate. Send the envelope by registered mail to the Pension Fund. The method has disadvantages: long waits and unreliability of the Russian Post.

Everyone has the right to choose for themselves which method to use and obtain the necessary information. The only thing that must not be forgotten is that if information is needed to be provided to an organization, it must be certified by a seal and signature. And this can only be done in person at the pension fund branch.

Each family has the opportunity to receive the remaining funds from maternity capital. Read more about obtaining an extract of maternity capital balances using government services in this article.

Other Possible Methods

In addition to using the services of the state portal, you can personally contact the MFC or Pension Fund without submitting an online application. In this case, you must bring all the documents listed on the website (see above). In this case, you will receive a paper version of the certificate with information about the remaining money of MK. After contacting the relevant authority, you will receive a certificate within 3 working days.

If you do not dare to submit an application on the State Services portal or do not want to visit the MFC, then do not worry - the Pension Fund is obliged to inform all MK owners about the status of the account annually, taking into account current indexation. When the maternity capital is completely used up, you will receive a registered letter in your name with notification. After receiving the letter, you are deprived of the right to receive maternity capital.

Features of obtaining information in the personal account of State Services

Despite the ease of obtaining a certificate through the website, users often report long delays in receiving information. The problem lies in the fact that Pension Fund employees fill out the data manually, so the latest updates on the status of the MK account are not updated in real time. Therefore, to quickly obtain accurate and up-to-date information, it is recommended to issue a certificate directly to the Pension Fund.
