Labor benefits

Persons raising a disabled minor are entitled by law to refuse night shifts, business trips and overtime.

Early retirement

The rights of the parents of an incompetent person are outlined in the legislation of the Russian Federation.

There are only 2 decisive factors for early retirement. The first is recognition as a disabled person before the age of 18 or after reaching adulthood with the mark “disabled from childhood.” The length of time you have been on disability does not matter. The second is to raise a child until he reaches 8 years of age. Those parents whose children were assigned disability for 1-2 years, but then it was lifted due to remission of the disease or improvement in the child’s health, can apply for an early pension.

According to Article No. 27 of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation, persons raising an incapacitated citizen can receive a tax deduction equal to 12,000 rubles. A similar tax benefit applies to parents whose children are studying full-time at a university until the age of 24 and have a Group I or II disability.

If guardians are involved in raising minors, then the amount of the personal income tax deduction is reduced to 6,000 rubles. The benefit cannot be used if the income of the parent or adoptive parent is more than 350,000 rubles. Only one citizen raising a minor can receive the deduction. Families with several disabled children receive money for each ward.

Priority right to receive land

The property issue is very acute for families raising a disabled minor. Even babies with verbal comprehension problems need special care. In order to improve the living conditions of such families, the government has developed a bill allowing them to receive land plots out of turn. Citizens can use them for building a house or gardening.

Compensation for housing and communal services and major repairs

In 2018, disabled children and their parents will be able to take advantage of benefits when paying utilities. At the initiative of the government, such families will be returned 50% of the payment made. When the rate for utilities increases, the amount paid from the budget is automatically indexed. The duration of the compensation period is 12 months, and then you need to submit documents again.

Social support measures for disabled children

Representatives of the administration of different cities of Russia, together with the country's parliament, regularly allocate a certain amount of funds from the budget to provide financial assistance to minor citizens who have received disabilities.

Children with disabilities in the Russian Federation require special care. The state has taken upon itself the responsibility to create comfortable conditions for normal life this category of citizens. It is under these conditions that new bills are adopted in State Duma, as well as local officials at the regional level.

Disabled child
The child must be in poor health. Children's body cannot function normally due to injuries, illnesses and various defects from birth.

A disabled child partially or completely loses the ability to care for himself. He has problems with movement, communication with peers, family and friends. Such children need significant help in organizing educational process. Some children's behavior needs to be controlled. There may be problems with employment in the future.

Disabled children need social protection. They also often need rehabilitation measures.
To obtain disability, the two above conditions must be met. Recognition as a person with disabilities based only on one of the points is not carried out.

Under the same conditions, they can be received to care for a disabled child in 2018. Promotion social adaptation will help ensure and maintain the health of disabled children and provide assistance in preventive measures.

Amount of child care payments
How the state supports disabled children

What parents of disabled children can count on are specified in Russian legislation. They are conditionally divided into several groups. For example, there are disability services; a range of social services are provided at the local level. Some people are entitled to Social Security. A certain category of citizens can count on money to care for a disabled child.

Support for people with disabilities comes from both the state budget and the budget at the local level.

Payments for caring for a disabled child in 2018 may include the following support for people with disabilities:

payment for housing and communal services;

providing disabled children and their parents with land plots and apartments;

children with disabilities have significant advantages when entering higher education

educational institution in front of their peers;

this category of citizens can count on discounted travel V public transport.

An increase in disability this year may occur due to inflation. At the moment it is about 3%. An increase in the size of social subsidies may occur in the next few months.

Disabled and very elderly people cannot take care of themselves even in ordinary everyday situations. In this connection, one of the relatives must leave his job and help him, which is why he himself is not able to receive the proper income. The state has provided for this possibility and, in order to provide assistance, has appointed a benefit for caring for a disabled child or an adult of the 1st group.

Conditions for applying for benefits in 2017

The allowance for caring for a disabled person in 2017 is assigned under certain conditions:

The caregiver must be able to work. He must not be a disabled person of any category, a pensioner or very elderly (over 80 years old).
The person does not have a job and is not a member of the employment fund.
He is over 16 years old.
The subsidy is given to only one person, even if several help the disabled person.
Must live in the same city or locality. Living together is not a mandatory requirement.
A disabled person must be recognized as disabled by a commission or by age (if the citizen is over 80 years old).
Family ties in this situation do not play a role.

Not long ago the list was expanded with a separate normative act 2013, allowing parents to receive care allowance if the child is disabled. It is provided only to one and only to the non-working person.

It is also worth noting that state subsidies apply only to those who have completely lost the ability to care for themselves. Therefore, today, for example, caring for a disabled person of group 2 does not include benefits due to only a partial limitation of this category in their abilities.

Instructions for registration, benefit amounts

The registration process is quite complicated and requires collecting some confirmation. Detailed instructions regarding actions look like this:

You should first visit the Pension Fund. Here you need to explain your situation and request a list of necessary certificates for the appointment. Due to individual characteristics Difficulties may arise if you follow the standard scenario. So a preliminary consultation will not be superfluous.
Visit the Employment Center and ask for a certificate of no unemployment payments for a disabled person.
In the institution where the group was registered, you need to request a separate certificate stating that the ward needs help from an outsider in services and everyday life.
The Pension Fund should request confirmation of the absence of pension payments to the applicant.
Writing an application and transferring the collected papers to the Pension Fund.

After all points have been completed, the amount of benefits for caring for a disabled person is assigned. But there is no particular disagreement here, since the value is approved at a general level and is the same for everyone. Today it is 1200 rubles. The only exception concerns regions with difficult conditions, e.g. Far North. Here a special coefficient is applied to the generally accepted size, due to which it grows somewhat.

The allowance for caring for a disabled child for a non-working parent will be many times larger – 6,000 rubles. But if another relative plays his role (for example, if both spouses work and can neither care for nor receive payments for it), then he receives the norm - 1,500 rubles. These values are subject to indexation in accordance with the decision of the Government, i.e. gradually increase according to the inflation rate.

Payments to families with disabled children (first number - for 2017, second - for 2018 - for Moscow)

The allowance for caring for a disabled person is, of course, small. This is due, first of all, to its legal justification. In particular, the subsidy is intended to compensate for part of the income that a citizen does not receive due to the inability to work due to providing assistance to a person in need. Completely cover it possible wages the state does not have the ability.

Documents and design features

So, a benefit for caring for a disabled child in 2018 is issued if the following documents are available:

Applicant's passport. The registration must correspond to the PF to which he is applying.
Application from the ward. It is written jointly, with the disabled person certifying his request and confirming that the applicant, with his consent, is helping him. If he cannot write the paper himself, it is permissible for an employee of the Pension Fund to do this, where he is assigned payments.
Data from the ITU, expert opinion, certificate of a disabled person of group I.
A certificate stating that a senior citizen needs help due to his age.
Work book to certify the fact of absence of work.

Documents for applying for benefits for caring for a disabled person in 2018

The decision is made by the commission after 10 days for each case. Sometimes additional consultation or confirmation may be required. For example, if the trustee and the ward live in different cities or villages. In this case, the commission makes a decision individually, because they must be sure that the applicant will be able to physically perform all mandatory daily procedures: care, feeding, taking medications, delivering groceries, hygiene procedures and so on. It is believed that he must carry out these actions more than once a day, i.e. The optimal situation is when the applicant and the disabled person live together.

Termination of payments - conditions, consequences

There are situations when benefits for caring for a disabled person of group 1 or a child cease to be accrued. The main thing is, of course, the assistant’s official employment at permanent job. In addition, payments will be suspended in the following situations:

Death of a ward.
Death of an assistant.
Reaching retirement age and receiving a pension by the applicant.
Registration of a person serving a disabled person in the employment fund.
Placement of a ward under state support in an appropriate institution for the duration of the group.
Relocation of a disabled person to another region or city that is served by another pension fund.

And, of course, at the mutual desire of the applicant and the disabled person, they can terminate their relationship. For example, receiving benefits to care for disabled parents, one of the children gets a job, and the second or another relative takes care of it. This is accompanied by a statement from the ward himself for each situation and the transfer of income to a second person. If a citizen simply refuses this obligation, he also provides a statement.

If your circumstances change, you must inform us as soon as possible. For example, after employment, a person has only 5 days to apply to suspend transfers.

If a situation arises where a citizen, for example, works unofficially or receives additional income from entrepreneurial or other activities, he will be forced to reimburse all previously transferred funds. This is an administrative violation and is punished accordingly. But if employees discover malicious intent and the use of fraudulent means to obtain government assistance, they turn to the prosecutor's office and similar authorities to resolve the issue.

Receiving set size benefits for caring for a disabled child, the parent is offered another option state support. It is expressed in the ability to include in your own money spent on care.

But this rule applies only if the citizen was employed before the benefit was issued and at the end of its payments. The duration of the “working” periods is not specified by law; a minimum of one month is sufficient. According to a similar procedure, this time is taken into account in the length of service for a person helping a disabled person of group I.

Assistance to children with disabilities and people with disabilities since childhood is regulated at the state level. Such families are entitled to various monthly payments(pension and benefits), as well as several types of labor, monetary and social benefits.

All these types of support from the state are designed to provide the disabled child, his parents and guardians with the most necessary things, assist his social adaptation, maintain health and create opportunities that correspond to the capabilities of other citizens.
