Step-by-step instructions on how to apply for SNILS for a child through State Services

The main ways to register SNILS for a child

SNILS is needed not only for accumulating pension benefits. It is also necessary for those who plan to use the government services website. It is also required for employment. It can be ordered by submitting an application to the Pension Fund, to the multifunctional center.

In the application you must write your own passport information and the child’s birth certificate. Both the mother and the father of a minor can submit an application. A government agency will require you to fill out a form.

Where to apply

Is it possible to apply through government services?

It is impossible to obtain SNILS for a child using the government services website. The only available option is to submit an application to the Pension Fund/MFC. In this case, you need to take into account the following features of document design:

1. If the minor is under 14 years old, the application must be submitted by his mother/father or guardian. The minor may not be present when the application is submitted.
2. If the minor is over 14 years old , then he is responsible for processing and receiving the document himself.
3. If a minor is studying at an educational institution, the administration of the school/school/college/university is responsible for processing the document.
4. If we are talking about newborns , registration of SNILS is carried out by the registry office. They transmit the data to the Pension Fund, which registers the child in the pension insurance system.

Via the Internet, you can only check whether SNILS is valid. There are many sites where you need to indicate your SNILS number and click the “Check” button to get the result. However, the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation calls on Russians to be vigilant and for all information related to SNILS, contact exclusively government agencies.

There are 4 methods to find out the document number:

1. Look at your card (relevant for those who made the document before April 1, 2020).
2. Visit the Pension Fund at the registration address, taking your passport with you.
3. Visit the HR department of the company you work for.
4. Go to the government services portal, log into your account and use. A rather controversial method, because to register on the government services website you need to know your SNILS number. If you already know him, then why should you use the above service?

SNILS data is needed for those who want to monitor the state of their own pension accruals.

What are the difficulties in obtaining

Making an appointment with the Pension Fund through State Services
The procedure for applying to the Pension Fund through State Services is simple and understandable even to a non-active Internet user. Difficulties can only arise when restoring your account. When you go from the portal to the Foundation’s website, if you need to get into your personal account, there is no need to enter your login and password yourself.

Users only note the convenience of being able to make an appointment in advance.

The issue of submitting an electronic application is already being resolved and the service will soon be available on the portal

The management of the Pension Fund intends to resolve the issue of filing an application for SNILS in electronic format. But for now this is not possible. And given the changes in legislation, according to which the SNILS identification number is assigned automatically immediately after birth (RF Federal Law No. 48), perhaps the need for such an application will simply disappear.

Now you need to find out that a citizen can be denied SNILS for only three reasons.

The reason for refusal may be lack of Russian citizenship

The applicant already has an identification number. A person is not entitled to receive SNILS due to the lack of Russian citizenship. The application for receipt was not completed in accordance with the documents.

Steps to receiving

As mentioned above, it is impossible to make SNILS for a child via the Internet. However, online document processing is not available for adults either.

If we are talking about preparing a document by visiting the Pension Fund/MFC, you need to remember that the following documents will be needed:

• passport of the parent who is applying for the document;
• birth certificate of a minor;
• minor's profile. It must be signed by the child's parent.

Recently, changes have been made to the legislation. Now Russians will no longer be issued cards. This change was approved by Federal Law No. 48 “On changing the accounting procedure in the pension insurance system” dated 04/01/2019. Starting from this date, instead of issuing cards, Russians will be assigned electronic numbers.

Where to get a completed insurance certificate

Probably, not everyone knows where SNILS is issued for a newborn child. As a rule, you need to receive it from the same organization that you contacted for its registration. If the documents were submitted directly to the Pension Fund branch, then you will need to go there to get the completed document; if you submitted them to the MFC, then you will need to receive the certificate there.

For anyone who is thinking about how to obtain a pension insurance certificate for a child over 14 years old, we will advise that a teenager can independently obtain it if he already has a passport.

Production time

SNILS is completed a maximum of 14 days in advance. This is exactly how much time it takes for Pension Fund employees to consider the application and check documents. Some parents still don’t know why their child needs SNILS. Below you can find a list of what this document is needed for:

1. Creating an account on the government services website. Currently, quite a lot of documents can be made on this portal. Using the website, you can reduce the time spent on paperwork and avoid standing in queues.
2. If a minor has a disability or is a recipient of certain social benefits, then SNILS serves as his identifier in social registers.
3. Job . Relevant for minors who want to earn extra money in the summer while there are no classes at school. In any case, the employer will make contributions to the Pension Fund if the minor is officially employed, and parents can create a personal account for their child in advance, before his employment.
4. There are educational institutions where SNILS is used as a number that identifies a student when passing through a checkpoint.
5. According to SNILS, a minor has the right to participate in various government programs and use some services free of charge. For example, the state project “Healthcare” allows children under three years of age to receive free outpatient medical care in municipal medical institutions.
6. SNILS serves as an identifier for an electronic card, introduced into use by Russians in 2012. In the future, it is planned to transfer all Russian citizens to this system. The card will serve as a replacement for the TIN, pension certificate, compulsory medical insurance policy, as well as several other documents.

Currently, registration and receipt of SNILS for a minor is possible only at the Pension Fund of Russia or the MFC. Despite many requests from Russians, such an opportunity is not provided on the government services website.

Attention! Representatives of the Pension Fund explain this by saying that information about the state of a Russian’s personal account in the pension insurance system is confidential and cannot be disclosed to third parties.

Is it necessary for a child to register

Employers transfer 26% of your salary to a personal account linked to this number, and the amount of your future pension will depend on the savings on it. According to the Information message of the Russian Pension Fund dated December 20, 2011, obtaining SNILS is mandatory for all working citizens of Russia. A puzzling question arises: does a child need SNILS - a child who does not work?

However, the document is needed because a number of government services, benefits and allowances are already attached to it. In the future, the scope of its application will most likely expand.

The other side of the question is whether SNILS is mandatory for a child under 14 years of age. It is optional in the sense that there is no law on punishing persons caring for a child for not having this number. But there are laws and regulations that tie the provision of services and government assistance to the availability of SNILS. Thus, the possibility of a child receiving a full range of government services and state assistance without this number is significantly limited and from this point of view, a pension insurance number for a child is mandatory and necessary.
