Pension supplements for children before 1990. Increase in pension for the birth of children

More and more people are going to government agencies to request a recalculation. They are interested in additional payments to pensions for children born before 1990. This is a multiple payment, a permanent bonus. It makes sense to apply for it to improve your financial situation.

Recently, a lot of unverified information of a dubious nature has appeared on the Internet that pensioners are supposedly receiving additional payments for children born before 1990. There was even a calculation table on social networks containing incorrect data on the amount of pension increases.

This information misleads many people. The number of requests to the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation on this issue is growing by leaps and bounds. Therefore, PFR specialists decided to explain who is entitled to an increase in the pension for children, what documents are needed for this, and how you can apply for recalculation.

According to Pension Fund experts, we are not talking about additional payments, but about recalculating pensions for periods of caring for children until they reach the age of one and a half years.

There are temporary periods when the company pays insurance premiums to the Pension Fund for subordinates. They are called insurance. Uninsurable time periods arise. Pension contributions are formed, but they are not transferred from companies to government agencies. Non-insurance time periods are distinguished as follows:

Care for pensioners and people with disabilities;
Serving in the army;
Pensions are being recalculated for children whose parents looked after them for up to one and a half years.

How is it carried out, what is required when recalculating for those born before 90.

The size of the increase depends on the nuances. The supplement to mothers' pensions for children born before 1990 is calculated based on:

Number of pupils.

Supplements are formed for 4 children, no more. When recalculating women for children born before 1990, for the first baby for 1 year they are entitled to 1.8 points, for the next - 3.6 points, for the third - 5.4 points. After a year and a half of maternity leave:

For the firstborn, 2.7 points are accrued; On the second – 5.4 points; On the third, subsequent one – 8.1 points. The more children there are, the more points they are entitled to.

The pension increase due to children will be directly proportional to their number. The Federal Law is written so that if a woman gives birth to 4 children while caring for them, she can receive 24 pension points. For those who have raised so many children, sometimes recalculation is not profitable.

It is better to seek advice on payment from specialists. They will take into account how many children were born and how much a pensioner is entitled to. They will tell you whether it is worth counting what you have.

Income for a specified period of time.

The pension supplement for children born before 1990 depends on the mother’s salary. If a woman worked while caring for babies, she can receive points for this, or points for caring. They are accrued if a woman did not officially work, but cared for children up to one and a half years old.

Cumulative work experience.

The increase in pension for children born before 1990 also depends on this parameter.

Calculation example

Let's look at how payments are calculated to pensioners for children born before 1991. Let's say citizen Petrova gave birth to a baby in 1988. In 2015, she applied for an increase in her pension. She is entitled to 2.7 b for a year and a half of care, writes Rosregistr. The cost of a point is 78.58 rubles. It should be multiplied by 2.7 b. The increase is equal to 212.16 rubles.

An example of recalculating pensions for those born before 1990. Citizen Vasilyeva gave birth to 5 children before 1990. She spent 6 years caring for her. For 3 children care was provided up to one and a half years, for 2 - for 1.6 months, for the second - 365 days.

Additional payments to pensions for those born before 1990, in this case, are calculated as follows: (2.7 + 5.4 + 8.1 + 5.4) multiplied by 78.58 rubles. = 1697 rub.

List of documents

To receive a pension supplement for those born before 1991, you should come to the Pension Fund. The application must be written in person. There is an application form approved by law on the Internet; it should be printed, filled out, signed, and then sent to the Pension Fund.

To receive a pension supplement for adult children, you need to bring a package of documents:

Photocopies of birth certificates;
Papers stating that the pupil is one and a half years old;
Photocopies of SNILS;
Photocopy of passport.

A pension supplement for persons who gave birth to children before 1990 is accrued after submitting an application and documents. A citizen has the right to do this at any time by coming to the Pension Fund on his own, through government services, or the Russian Post.

If the application is submitted digitally, and the citizen’s file does not contain the documents necessary for recalculation, he will have to present them additionally. If the applicant does not provide them within the specified period, the application will be cancelled. Then there is no need to wait for recalculation.

The pension supplement for those born before 1991 is not provided to young pensioners who retired in 2016-2017. As for whether people who retired in 2015 can receive additional payment, the question is ambiguous - the document is crude, it is better to consult a specialist.

The pension supplement for children born before 1991 will be most noticeable for women with many children. If a woman’s pension is minimal, at the expense of social benefits. With additional payments, she will be able to cover the increase for pupils. Subsidies for pensioners for those born before 1990 may be unprofitable.

Citizens who have a fixed pension will not receive an increase for a newborn child. We are talking about those who lived in the Chernobyl disaster zone. An application for recalculation for children into the pension fund will not be able to be written by people who retired early or who worked at a preferential job. Women who have one child will not be able to calculate their income. There is no additional payment for children born if you receive a survivor's pension.

The pension fund specialist knows exactly who is entitled to recalculation for children. He will tell you whether it is profitable to do it or whether it is worth refusing. There is no time limit for seeking a solution to the problem.

Which category of citizens benefits from the offer?

The bonus for those born before 1991 is beneficial to people whose work experience is defined as “Soviet”. It is calculated according to non-insurance periods. Recalculation for children is beneficial if there are several of them, if the work experience is short, and the salary is low. Sometimes the addition for children born in the USSR gives more points than the previous accounting of periods of care.

Payments are divided into regional and federal. Federal payments:

Increase for military personnel and retired athletes;
Additional payments to the insurance part of the pension;
Supplements to social pension.

Sometimes citizens are entitled to one-time or monthly increases. As for additional payment for children, women can apply for it:

Working but over a certain age limit;
Citizens with dependents;
Residents of the Far North;
Have worked in the Far North for more than 25 years;
People whose age has exceeded 80 years;
Disabled people.

Regional surcharges are calculated depending on the region. Certain categories of citizens, for example, municipal employees, can receive them. The amount of the premium is determined by the authorities. They influence how much honorary mothers and other categories of citizens will receive. For example, in some regions they receive bonuses of 10 thousand rubles annually.

Who will be paid extra?

Who needs the supplement? The year of birth of babies does not play a decisive role. They can be born both before 90 and after it.

Pension supplements for children after 90-91. will be imperceptible. People whose work experience is predominantly Soviet will receive a large increase in payments. It is profitable for them to recalculate.

Payments to pensioners are due if they gave birth to babies after 90. However, not everyone who is entitled to additional payments seeks to receive them. Sometimes after applying it becomes clear that recalculation is unprofitable.

Who exactly should write a statement?

For those who have 2 or more children, and care was provided up to one and a half years;
Anyone who has children needs a raise; wages are below the Russian average;
Recalculation for 2 pupils should be done if twins or triplets were born;
Those whose pension payments are almost equal to the subsistence level;
Mothers who took care of them and were not in an employment relationship before going on maternity leave should apply for recalculation for pupils;
Those who have accrued minimum payments are entitled to an additional payment.

The law regarding those born before 1990 says that sometimes the increase may not be issued. These are cases such as:

Having a long work experience;
High salary;
1 pupil.

The additional payment depends on the number of students, length of service, and earnings. Those who have 2 or more students, but wish to retire early, are not recommended to apply for an allowance. Otherwise, you won't be able to retire early.

Recalculation for children is also possible if a person is raising them. If the woman is under 80 years old, then:

For 1 pupil she will receive 3416 rubles;
The increase for 2 pupils will be 4270 rubles;
For 3 – 5124 rub.

Pensioners over the age of 80 can collect documents for recalculation. In this case:

For a pupil, the additional payment will be 5970 rubles;
For two – 6832 rubles;
For three – 7680 rub.

Disabled pensioners can collect the necessary documents. By filling out the application form for recalculation, they will be able to receive:

For a student – from 4-11.2 thousand rubles;
Benefits for those who gave birth to 2 and are raising them will amount to 6.4-12.8 thousand rubles;
They will add 7.2-14.4 thousand rubles for 3 people.

The order on additional payments for babies born before 1990, according to the government decree, says that residents of the North are not paid as much as pensioners in other regions, but more. They will be able to receive 6-16 thousand rubles.

How does the bonus increase at the expense of children if they are already 18, but not 23, but they are still studying? Pensioners who have such pupils receive 1.5 thousand rubles. However, it is worth consulting with a pension fund employee. He will tell you exactly what the benefit should be for pensioners for adult children.

Example with additional payment for those born before 1980

Let's say there is an additional payment for children. Let the woman retire in 2010. She has two students and wants to get a raise. One baby was born in 1990, the second in 1980. The work experience is 30 years.

What is the pension supplement? 3 years of non-insurance period are deducted from 30 years of service. Women who are already 60 years old will receive 3.6 points for caring for two children under one and a half years old. The increase for pupils will be 424 rubles.

According to statistics, those who signed up for the supplement receive an increase in the amount in 25% of cases. As a result, payments increase by several hundred or thousand rubles.

If you find, fill out a sample form for recalculating the amount of your pension, write an application, and the amount comes out with a minus sign, a refusal from the Pension Fund will be issued.

What documents are required for two pupils for recalculation? A standard application will be required, as well as:

Identification;
SNILS;
Birth Saints;
To receive a pension supplement, documents are required confirming that they are already one and a half years old (passport, certificate).

The Russian Pension Fund simply accepts a birth certificate if it contains a stamp indicating that the student has already received a passport.

It is interesting that women who have raised 1, 2 or more people are given care leave for 3 years. Only 1/2 of the term is included in the insurance period. This is fair; for up to one and a half years, care benefits are paid every 30 days.

Example with bonuses for 3 pupils

What is the supplement for 3 children? Let’s say retirement took place in 2012. There are three babies born before 1980 and after. Work experience is 30 years.

What additional payment is required in this option? Care was provided for up to one and a half years, additional payments are calculated according to the 16.2 point system. Translated into rubles, this is 1272 rubles. 4.5 years will be deducted from the pension - they will go into the non-insurance period. The increase will be about 150 rubles.

So, women who gave birth during Soviet times need to visit the Pension Fund to apply for additional payment. They will receive a recalculation for non-insurance periods. Why were periods of child care not taken into account when calculating accruals? The point system was invented in 2015. Work experience is calculated according to how many entries about it are present in the work book. There are no marks in it that the woman was on maternity leave. When the calculation took place, the person had to present documents such as certificates of children. Then the years of caregiving would be included in the total length of service.

For some people, payments were assigned according to the old rules - until January 1, 2015. Now it is calculated based on points - one of the parents caring for a child up to one and a half years old can receive a certain number of points in the insurance period. The year the baby was born is not particularly important.

It is beneficial to apply to the Pension Fund for those who have many children, who became mothers while studying at college or university. If you have the right to early retirement and have a long work history, you should not apply.

In mid-summer 2017, the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation gave long-awaited clarifications regarding the procedure for providing additional payments to pensions for children born before 1990. The first materials concerning the procedure for obtaining such a support measure appeared in the media, as well as on the official website of the Pension Fund.

For the first time, the possibility of issuing such an additional payment became known at the beginning of the year, however, due to the lack of sufficient information about the correctness of registration of assistance, only a limited number of citizens were able to take advantage of this right.

Thanks to amendments to the legislation, women on pensions have the opportunity to apply to the local branch of the Pension Fund to receive a cash supplement to the pension for children who were born before 1990 in the USSR.

Russian legislation does not provide for a separate payment for children. This measure of state support is an increase in pension benefits that can be received by mothers of adult children born during the Soviet Union.

The law provides for the possibility of making such a recalculation by introducing changes to the procedure for calculating the labor pension. After the innovations, when calculating the amount of the pension, not only periods of work are taken into account, but also parental leave when insurance was not provided.

There are several nuances that make it possible for mothers to receive such compensation:

For women who retired since 2015, applying for a recalculation is not required, since specialists independently calculate the maximum beneficial amount of security and assign it for payment.
An application for recalculation of pensions for children born in the USSR is allowed only if there are previously unaccounted for non-insurance periods.
There is no time limit for submitting documents for the supplement for women with children born during the Soviet era. The mother has the right to apply for such additional payment at any time, without being guided by specific deadlines.
You don’t have to contact the Pension Fund to complete the documents; now you can do it without leaving your home. For example, an application can be submitted through the State Services portal or sent by mail. It is also possible to apply for additional payment through the MFC.
Such a pension supplement in Russia is individual in nature and cannot be guaranteed to all pensioners. Only 20% of all women who have reached retirement age enjoy this right - social security is not always beneficial. Most often, this right is used by mothers of 2 or more children who have a long non-insurance period in their working lives.

If, based on the results of reviewing the documents, it becomes clear that the recalculation is negative, it is not performed so as not to reduce the current amount of the applicant’s pension.

Who should

Recalculation of pensions for children is very popular among mothers who received this status during the Soviet Union. However, this does not mean that mothers who had children after the collapse of the USSR automatically lose the right to receive such a measure of social support. The supplement may not be beneficial to them due to changes in pension insurance.

Periods of caring for young children under 1.5 years of age do not imply the possibility of automatically accruing additional payments to pensioners. The main condition for receiving the bonus for mothers who retired before 2015 involves filing an appropriate application. If a woman became a pensioner in January of this year, the calculation is made automatically.

When is recalculation beneficial?

There are several situations where it may be beneficial for a mother to receive an additional payment to her pension for the birth of a child.

When the mother filed for retirement before 2015;
If the mother has 2 or more children for whom she took care;
If during one pregnancy the mother gave birth to several children;
If during the time the mother took care of her child, she did not have official employment;
If the current amount of pension payable to the mother was established taking into account the low salary of her work. We are talking about those cases when the employee’s salary is below the subsistence minimum established in the country;
In case of loss of a breadwinner. The conditions for receiving such a bonus must be clarified with the Pension Fund of your region.

When applying for an allowance is not profitable

Additional payments to pensions are due to all mothers who raised children born before 1990. However, for some women such premiums may not be beneficial:

If a pensioner has one child, whose upbringing she was involved in;
If the mother has sufficient work experience, including if this time was spent caring for newborn children.

Legislative acts

The pension supplement provided for children born before 1990 is provided for by the Federal Law “On Insurance Pensions” of December 2013. Despite the fact that this Federal Law was adopted more than four years ago, the possibility of receiving such a bonus began to be widely discussed only in the summer of 2017 after information support.

Accordingly, the regulatory legal act according to which pensions are calculated for children born before the age of 90 has already entered into legal force and every woman who falls into this category can take advantage of it.

Remember that submitting documents for recalculation may not always be profitable. Before contacting the Pension Fund, evaluate your chances of receiving a bonus. In 70% of cases, pensioners are refused due to the fact that after recalculation the amount of their pension benefits is reduced.

Calculation of the amount of surcharge

Recalculation of pension payments to women for children born before 1990 is made on the basis of the relevant government decree. According to the norms of legislation, an increase in the amount of monthly pension benefits for women is possible only if the following conditions are met:

The pension supplement is made only for children born before the beginning of 1991;
The woman must retire before January 1, 2015.

In all other cases, such accruals are taken into account in the pension, so no additional application is required.

The amount of the supplement to the monthly cash benefit directly depends on the number of children whose mother raised them until they reached 1.5 years of age. For each such child born during Soviet times, 1.8 points are awarded. If you check the data in the table, now one point is 78 rubles. Respectively:

For one child, a woman receives an increase of 140 rubles;

For two – 280 rubles;

For three – 436 rubles.

It makes no sense to apply for a pension transfer if you have only one child. The final payment amount will be lower than the current pension and the pensioner’s application will be denied.

It is worth taking into account periods of childcare if a woman had 2 or more children during the Soviet Union. In this case, it will be possible to increase the size of your pension accruals.

To receive a pension supplement, an interested person must contact the local branch of the Pension Fund with an application and a package of documents confirming the right to receive an additional measure of state support.

Where to apply for registration

An application for a pension supplement for children can be submitted in several ways.

The easiest option is to write an application and contact personally the local branch of the Russian Pension Fund, through which funds are transferred monthly to the pensioner’s account.
With this method, the pensioner must clearly know what documents are needed to apply for the supplement: a passport, documents for periods not included in the insurance.
To recalculate your pension, you can also submit an application on the government services portal ( only possible if you have a verified account).
If there is no identification information, a person can also submit an application for a pension supplement, but this is only possible after making an appointment in advance in his personal account on the Pension Fund website.
You can apply for additional payment by mail. In this case, it is necessary to strictly observe the regulations for filling out documents established by the Fund. The application must be accompanied by documents confirming the identity of the sender and documents on non-insurance experience. If papers are submitted for two children born before 1990, their own documents certified by a notary must be submitted for each period of time.

If a person submits documents electronically, he may need to provide some of the papers to the Pension Fund office in person. If he ignores this requirement and does not bring the paper within the deadlines established by law, the application will be canceled and the recalculation will not take place.

Care for pensioners and people with disabilities;
Serving in the army;
Pensions are being recalculated for children whose parents looked after them for up to one and a half years.

The size of the increase depends on the nuances. The supplement to mothers' pensions for children born before 1990 is calculated based on:

Number of pupils.

For the firstborn, 2.7 points are accrued; On the second – 5.4 points; On the third, subsequent one – 8.1 points. The more children there are, the more points they are entitled to.

Income for a specified period of time.

Cumulative work experience.

The increase in pension for children born before 1990 also depends on this parameter.

Calculation example

Let's look at how payments are calculated to pensioners for children born before 1991. Let's say citizen Petrova gave birth to a baby in 1988. In 2015, she applied for an increase in her pension. The cost of a point is 78.58 rubles. It should be multiplied by 2.7 b. The increase is equal to 212.16 rubles.

Additional payments to pensions for those born before 1990, in this case, are calculated as follows: (2.7 + 5.4 + 8.1 + 5.4) multiplied by 78.58 rubles. = 1697 rub.

To receive a pension supplement for adult children, you need to bring a package of documents:

Photocopies of birth certificates;
Papers stating that the pupil is one and a half years old;
Photocopies of SNILS;
Photocopy of passport.

Payments are divided into regional and federal. Federal payments:

People whose age has exceeded 80 years;
Disabled people.

Who exactly should write a statement?

For those who have 2 or more children, and care was provided up to one and a half years;
Anyone who has children needs a raise; wages are below the Russian average;
Recalculation for 2 pupils should be done if twins or triplets were born;

For 1 pupil she will receive 3416 rubles;
The increase for 2 pupils will be 4270 rubles;
For 3 – 5124 rub.

Pensioners over the age of 80 can collect documents for recalculation. In this case:

For a pupil, the additional payment will be 5970 rubles;
For two – 6832 rubles;
For three – 7680 rub.

Disabled pensioners can collect the necessary documents. By filling out the application form for recalculation, they will be able to receive:

The Russian Pension Fund simply accepts a birth certificate if it contains a stamp indicating that the student has already received a passport.

What is the supplement for 3 children? Let’s say retirement took place in 2012. There are three babies born before 1980 and after. Work experience is 30 years.

The government decree on a pension supplement for women who gave birth to children before 1990 has already entered into force and it is already possible to apply for a pension recalculation (in August 2017, but later). After recalculation, there may be different options; the pension may increase insignificantly and may even become smaller; in this case, you can refuse the pension “in a new way” and receive it according to the old calculation, as before.

The amounts of such additional payments vary and depend on specific circumstances that must be notified to local PF authorities. For example, for a pensioner raising a child who is studying full-time, an increase in his pension is established at a fixed level (this is 1,500 rubles). But, as soon as the student stops studying or reaches 23 years of age, such payments stop

FEDERAL LAW ON PENSION SUPPLEMENT FOR CHILDREN BORN BEFORE 1990: NEW DECREE

Government representatives developed a corresponding order, thanks to which monthly additional payments to pensions became possible. Women whose children were born before 1990, in other words, during the Soviet era, can count on such an increased pension. However, there is one additional condition: the woman had to retire no later than 2015. If this condition is not met, then the pension will not increase.

We are talking about women of retirement age who retired before 2015. The Russian government decided to recalculate their pension according to children born before 1990. For those who retired later, the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation offered a better payment option. Therefore, they will not receive an increase.

The increase depends directly on the number of children born. For each child, the pensioner will receive 1.8 points. One point is now equal to 78 rubles. From this calculation, women will receive:

For 1 child - 140.40 rubles. (1.8 points),

For 2 children - 280.80 rubles. (3.6 points),

For 3 and subsequent children - 436.80 rubles. (5.6 points).

The Pension Fund notes that it makes no sense to recalculate your pension if you have one child. Most likely, you will only lose when recalculating. But if a pensioner has 2 or more children, then it definitely makes sense.

Let us note that if, after such a recalculation, it turns out that the woman’s pension has only become smaller, then you will be left with the one that was. To recalculate, you need to contact the local Pension Fund and write a corresponding application there.

FEDERAL LAW ON PENSION SUPPLEMENT FOR CHILDREN BORN BEFORE 1990: WHAT DOCUMENTS ARE NEEDED

To receive the surcharge you will need the following documents:

firstly, an application for additional payment, in which you indicate your personal data, place of residence, as well as information about the child.

secondly, the child’s birth certificate.

thirdly, a work book or other document about work activity.

fourthly, a certificate stating that you have not previously applied for such a payment.

fifthly, form number 9, which is issued at the passport office.

If you are applying for an additional payment for a child who is over 18 years old and studies at an educational institution, then a certificate from this educational institution is required.
If the child is disabled, then a document is also needed.

FEDERAL LAW ON PENSION SUPPLEMENT FOR CHILDREN BORN BEFORE 1990: CONDITIONS OF ACCRUAL

An increase in the pension amount is possible if a minor is dependent on a pensioner. Dependency, in accordance with the norms of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation, requires full maintenance and security. Payment of the bonus is allowed to persons who have reached the appropriate age and have retired. Who is entitled to an additional payment to the pension for dependents (children and other relatives)

The law includes children, brothers, sisters, and grandchildren as dependents on whom the payment of additional funds is required: until they reach the age of 18; if they carry out educational activities in secondary and higher educational organizations, until they reach the age of 23 years; with disabled status and after reaching adulthood. It is necessary to pay attention to the fact that the legislative act emphasizes the absence of the need to prove the dependency of minors.

Adoption of a new law “On insurance pensions in the Russian Federation” No. 400-FZ dated December 28, 2013 made many adjustments to the law enforcement practice of assigning and paying pensions. An important innovation since the entry into force of this law was the calculation of pension payments from January 1, 2015 in relative units - points. It is especially noteworthy that according to the new calculation rules for childcare periods now additional, previously not provided for pension coefficients are accrued.

In this regard, rumors have begun to actively spread among the Russian population in recent months that thanks to the new law for women whose pension was assigned before January 1, 2015, it is possible to carry out the so-called (incorrectly) “recalculation of pensions for children born before 1990” by taking into account periods of child care for children according to the new rules - in pension points.

It is worth noting that in reality year of birth of children before or after 1990 has no effect for the possibility of recalculation. The possibility and amount of the bonus depends on completely different parameters related directly to the seniority and salary of the pensioner himself!

Thus, in reality, for Pension Fund employees there is no such thing, How "children born in the USSR"- neither before 1990, nor before 1991. Recalculation for replacing periods of work with non-insured periods of care can be done for any children regardless of their year of birth. In the practice of the Pension Fund of Russia, there really is such a milestone as 1991, but it only applies to pension valorization- this is an additional increase for “Soviet experience”, and it has nothing to do with children born before this period.

It should also be noted:

This procedure does not apply to absolutely all women who have children and receive a labor (insurance) pension. And there is certainly no need to talk about any fixed additional payment (often they talk about some kind of non-existent increase of 300 rubles for each child) - in fact, everything is very individual, and for most people the amount of the “increase” received in the case of applying the new rules is completely may turn out to be negative!
For questions regarding recalculation, please contact only to employees of your Pension Fund branch with the application and necessary documents. Only they, based on the materials of the payment case, can make correct preliminary calculations and determine whether it will be beneficial in each specific case or not!

Moreover, the deadline for submitting an application for recalculation not limited in any way, so there is no need to create a big stir around this issue. However, it must be remembered that date of application will influence on which month the pension amount will increase in case of a positive result (if you apply earlier, they will assign it earlier).

Therefore, in order not to create unnecessary queues and additional difficulties in the work of the Pension Fund, it is important to determine in advance in which cases a pensioner can most likely count on an increase, and when doing this makes no sense or is generally contraindicated!

What is this anyway and why are people talking about it only now?

Pension coefficients under the new law are calculated both for periods of working activity and for non-insurance periods, to which, according to clause 3, part 1, art. 12 Federal Law No. 400 includes periods of childcare for children up to one and a half years old, but not more than 6 years for all in total. Thus, in total, according to the new rules, periods of 1.5 years of care can be counted as length of service. no more than four children.

Currently Holiday to care for the child provided until they reach the age of 3 years. However, the insurance period for each child includes a period of no more than 1.5 years. Also, only up to the age of one and a half years is now paid.

What documents are needed to recalculate assigned pension payments?

For all questions regarding the recalculation of pensions assigned before January 1, 2015, for children born, you must contact specialists of the Pension Fund, who will open the payment case, check the presence of the necessary documents in it and calculate the amount of possible additional payment, as well as advise what additional documents will be required .

To recalculate a previously assigned pension payment, you must submit:

an application in the established form (filled out directly at the Pension Fund branch or in electronic form on the government services website);
identification document of the pensioner or her legal representative;
insurance certificate number (SNILS);
birth certificates of children, and in their absence - a certificate from the civil registry office about birth;
documents confirming the care of a child up to 1.5 years old - to choose from:
- educational certificate;
- child's passport.

If there is a mark on the child’s birth certificate indicating that he was issued a passport, it will be enough to present only this document, since such a stamp in itself already confirms the fact that the child was cared for up to 1.5 years of age.

It should be remembered that the obligation to submit the listed documents rests with the applicant. In addition, all necessary documents must be submitted in original or in the form copies certified by a notary.

How can I contact the Pension Fund for recalculation?

Recalculation of women's pensions according to the new rules for children born before or after 1990 is carried out only by application. For recalculation, pensioners need to contact the Pension Fund, namely its territorial body where the pension file is located.

At the same time, there is several ways to contact:

directly to the PFR client service in person or through your legal representative (if he has a notarized power of attorney);
at the MFC at your place of residence (if the service for accepting applications for pension recalculation is provided there);
through the post office, sending documents by registered mail;
through a single portal of public services, by filling out an electronic application or making an appointment with the relevant department, having previously selected the name of your locality in the upper right corner of the site.

You need to know that when choosing an electronic application, the applicant will still have to deliver the documents necessary for recalculation in person to the Pension Fund within five working days. If documents are sent by mail, the originals are not sent - these must be notarized photocopies.

If the PFR specialists make a positive decision, you will be able to receive the additional payment due only from the first day of the month following the submission of the application. Such a rule according to paragraphs. 2 p. 1 art. 23 of Law No. 400-FZ of December 28, 2013 is valid for all pension recipients who apply for recalculation, entailing an increase in the payment amount.

I heard that according to the new law, women are entitled to a pension supplement for children born before 1991. I have two children, born in 1980 and 1985, I became a pensioner in 2014. Am I entitled to an increase and in what amount? And does the region of residence matter for receiving the bonus?

Indeed, it is possible to recalculate, according to the new rules, pension payments assigned before 2015 under the previously valid legislation. This can be done only after contacting the Pension Fund with an application - and then only if the new calculation option will be beneficial for you.

The new rules are being introduced in accordance with Federal Law No. 400 of December 28, 2013 - that is, they apply to all citizens of the Russian Federation, and the place of residence in this case does not matter. There are also no additional regional supplements for including non-insurance periods in the length of service.

Without familiarizing yourself with the documents of the payment case, it is impossible to say for sure whether it will be possible to receive an additional payment, or whether such a recalculation will reduce the amount of the payment. It is also impossible to stipulate in advance the amount of such an increase! However, in any case, the amount of your initially established pension will not be revised downwards.

You can find an example of recalculation and a detailed description of the existing methods for completing it in the article Additional payment to the pension for children.
