The maximum childcare allowance can be received by a woman who had a fairly high salary before pregnancy. This payment is indexed and grows every year.
According to the legislation in 2017, the monthly allowance for caring for a baby is 40% of the average wage of a woman, calculated over the past two years. That is, to understand How long you will be paid, calculate your earnings, divide this number by 100 and multiply by 40. The result will be the size of your average monthly benefit.
The size of the maximum childcare allowance is fixed and this amount is relevant for all regions of the country.
But when calculating, it should be borne in mind that payments cannot exceed the amount of 24 rubles. This is due to the fact that the benefit is tied to the average daily earnings from which it is calculated. Therefore, even if the mother received much more, then she will not be charged more than this amount. In addition, unlike the minimum payments, the maximum payments are not multiplied by the district coefficient.
The same rule applies to benefits for childbirth and pregnancy. For maternity leave lasting 140 days, a woman can receive 61 rubles a month. For the entire period, she will be charged 375 thousand rubles. But for women who had to go through a complicated pregnancy, the decree will be extended and the amount of charges will increase.
How long are paid for multiple children
If a mother is caring for several children under the age of one and a half years, then her benefits are summed up. For example, for two children you can get a maximum of 73,5 thousand rubles. But at the same time, the amount cannot exceed 100% of the woman’s full salary.
An employed mother for the appointment of a care allowance needs to contact her place of work and write an application, a sample of which will be provided by the organization itself. You must have the following with you:
- baby’s birth certificate, as well as documents for previous children, if any;
- a certificate from the place of work of the second parent, confirming that he is not paid such assistance;
- a statement on the replacement of years with earlier years, if necessary.
If a woman has changed her place of work over the past two years, then she needs to bring confirmation that the same benefit was not assigned elsewhere. And she will also need a certificate of income from a previous employer.
Only those women who had a high salary before pregnancy can count on the maximum allowance for caring for a baby. But in any case, the charges will not exceed a certain fixed amount.
