Minimum amount of care allowance. Monthly allowance for caring for a child up to one and a half years

There is a minimum limit on the average daily earnings for calculating the maternity benefit. Use it if in the billing period the employee has no earnings or less than the minimum wage as of the date of the start of maternity leave.

Use the federal minimum wage, do not take regional into account. Compare the minimum average daily earnings with the average daily actual earnings of the employee (letter of the FSS dated 11.03.2011 No. 14-03-18 / 05-2129).

Monthly earnings for settlement period take it equal to one minimum wage per month, the formula is as follows:

Minimum average daily earnings = minimum wage as of the start date of the decree x 24: 730

If in the area where the woman works, legislation establishes district coefficients , then when calculating maternity benefits based on the minimum wage, take into account such coefficients.

An example of determining the minimum limit of average daily earnings for calculating maternity benefits

Employee of LLC "Gasprom" E.V. Ivanova brought a sick leave confirming maternity leave... The vacation period is 140 calendar days - from July 17 to December 4, 2019 inclusive. Ivanova's insurance experience is more than six months.

The settlement period is 2017–2018. The number of calendar days in the billing period is 730.

The employee works full time, LLC Gasprom is located in the Krivosheinsky district of the Tomsk region, where the regional coefficient is 1.3.

For the billing period, Ivanova earned 86,086.96 rubles.

Average daily wages amounted to 117.93 rubles. (RUB 86,086.96: 730 days). This is less than the minimum average daily wage, which is: 370.85 rubles. (11 280 rubles × 24 months: 730 days).

The accountant calculated the amount of the allowance as follows: 370.85 rubles. × 140 days. × 1.3 = 67,494.70 rubles.

An exception is the situation when there was no earnings in the billing period or the actual average monthly earnings turned out to be lower than the minimum wage for the employee, for whom at the time of the occurrence insured event part-time mode is set. In this case average earnings from the minimum wage for calculating benefits must be determined in proportion to the duration of the employee's working time.

This procedure follows from the provisions of part 1.1 of the Law of December 29, 2006 No. 255-FZ, clause 15.3 of the Regulation approved by the Government Decree No. 375 of June 15, 2007.

The maximum amount of AVERAGE DAILY earnings for maternity, childcare, sick leave

The maximum amount of benefits depends on the maximum average daily earnings, which in 2020 depends on for the previous 2 years:

815,000 (2018) + 865,000 (2019) = 1,680,000 rubles.

Accordingly, the maximum average daily earnings for calculating benefits in 2020 will be:

RUB 1,680,000 / 730 day = 2301,37 rubles / day

Minimum, Maximum Maternity, Pregnancy and Childbirth Benefits (BIR) 2020

2301.37 rubles / day X 140 days = 322 191.80 rubles

For women, expectant mothers, whose insurance experience does not exceed six months, the amount of payments for pregnancy and childbirth is taken as the basis.

The minimum salary for maternity in 2020 will be:

Minimum, Maximum HOSPITAL Disability Benefit 2020

The minimum average daily earnings for disability benefits are calculated from the minimum wage. For example, from January 1, 2019, the sick leave calculation will be as follows.

Date of publication: 24.04.2018

From 01.05.2018, the calculation of benefits has changed. Consider, in connection with what, and what changes have occurred.

The calculation of benefits changes due to the new value of the minimum wage from 01.05.2018. The new minimum wage is set at 11,163 rubles. The corresponding changes were introduced by the Federal Law of 03/07/2018 N 41-FZ.

In what calculations for benefits is the minimum wage used:

1. For determining minimum the amount of temporary disability benefits, maternity benefits, if the employee did not have earnings / had a small earnings in the previous two years.
2. For determining maximum the amount of temporary disability benefits, if there has been a violation of the regime.
3. For determining the minimum monthly allowance for caring for a child under 1.5 years old.

The minimum amount of benefits for temporary incapacity for work, for pregnancy and childbirth

If the employee did not have earnings or had a small earnings in the previous two years, then the calculation of benefits for temporary disability, for pregnancy and childbirth is made on the basis of their minimum wage. In this case, the minimum wage is determined on the date of the onset of temporary disability.

If the temporary disability began on 05/01/2018 or later, then the new minimum wage is used.

Minimum average daily earnings for benefits for temporary incapacity for work in the event that the illness began after May 1, 2018, is:

11 163 rub. x 24 months : 730 = 367 r

If an employee falls ill before May 1, 2018, then the size minimum allowance will be determined based on the "old" minimum wage = 9,489 rubles, even if the disease continued in May 2018.

The maximum amount of benefits for temporary incapacity for work, if there has been a violation of the regime

For determining maximum the amount of temporary disability benefit, if there was a violation of the regime, the minimum wage is used, in the month of illness.

For example, suppose an employee was sick from 04/25/2018 to 05/11/2018, and in the submitted certificate of incapacity for work there is a mark about the violation of the regime from 04/28/2018:

The “old” minimum wage is used to calculate the maximum benefit for the April 2018 sickness period:

The maximum daily allowance in April 2018 is:

• Minimum wage 9 489 rubles. : 30 calendar day in April = 316.30 rubles.

To calculate the maximum allowance for the period of illness in May 2018, the new minimum wage is used, regardless of the fact that the illness began in April 2018:

The maximum daily allowance in May 2018 is:

• Minimum wage 11 163 rubles. : 31 calendar days in May = 360.10 rubles.

Minimum monthly allowance for caring for a child up to 1.5 years old

If the employee did not have earnings or had a small earnings in the two previous years, then according to clause 23 of the Regulation on the specifics of calculating benefits, approved. Government Decree of June 15, 2007 N 375), in this case, the amount of the benefit for a full calendar month is determined based on the minimum wage established on the date of the start of parental leave (for persons working at the time of the insured event on a part-time basis, - in proportion to the duration of the working time). At the same time, the average daily earnings are not calculated and the coefficient of 30.4 is not applied.

In any case, the amount of the monthly childcare allowance cannot be less than the statutory minimum.

The legally established minimum allowance for caring for a child under 1.5 years old is from 01.02.2018:

If parental leave started before 31.12.2017 year inclusive, i.e. when the minimum wage was 7800 rubles, then 40% of the minimum wage = 3,120 rubles. is less than the statutory minimum for caring for the second and subsequent (6,284.65 rubles) and the first child (3,795.60 rubles). Thus, for parental leave that began before 01/01/2018, the minimum benefit for a full calendar month is RUB 3,142.33. - for the first child and 6,284.65 rubles. - for the second and subsequent children.

What are the amounts of child benefits from February 1, 2018 after indexing by a factor of 1.025? How did the dimensions change? What are the amounts of the increase? Which benefits have not been affected by the indexation? This article provides a table with the new sizes of "children's" benefits and provides examples of calculating benefits in ambiguous situations that an accountant may face in 2018.

From February 1, 2018 - indexation of some benefits

It is customary to refer to "child" benefits as payments related to the birth of children. The list of such payments is contained in the Federal Law of May 19, 1995 No. 81-FZ "On State Benefits to Citizens with Children" (hereinafter - Law No. 81-FZ). Most often, employers have to deal with the calculation and payment of the following types of "children's" benefits:

• early pregnancy registration allowance;
• monthly allowance for caring for a child up to 1.5 years old;
• maternity benefit.

The listed types of benefits are paid to their employees by the employer. At the same time, paid social benefits can be reduced insurance premiums to the FSS or receive the necessary compensation from the fund.

It is worth noting that in some regions there is a pilot project under which benefits are paid not by employers, but directly from the Social Insurance Fund. Territorial bodies FSS in the "pilot" regions calculate and pay "child" benefits themselves. Here is a list of such regions as of February 1, 2018:

Indexation of child benefits in 2018

Since January 1, 2018, there has been no indexation of “children's” benefits. In 2018 and in subsequent years, child benefits are indexed annually - only from February 1. The indexation coefficient is approved by the Government of the Russian Federation (Federal Law No. 444-FZ of December 19, 2016). Indexation applies to the following benefits paid by the employer:

• a one-time allowance for women registered early in pregnancy;
• lump-sum payment for the birth of a child;
• monthly childcare allowance.

From January 1 to February 1, 2018, “children's” benefits should be paid in the same amounts as in 2017. Here are the amounts of "children's" benefits in the table from January 1, 2018.

However, since February 1, 2018, the indexation coefficient for child benefits is 1.025 (Government Decree Russian Federation dated January 26, 2018 No. 74 "On approval of the size of the indexation of payments, benefits and compensations in 2018").

Taking into account the new coefficient, from February 1, 2018, “child” benefits should be paid in the indexed amounts, which are shown in the table below.

In districts and localities where regional coefficients to wages are established, "child" benefits (both in January 2018 and from February 1, 2018) will be higher, since they need to be additionally increased by the amount of the increasing coefficient (Article 5 of Law No. 81-FZ). Next, we will comment on the conditions and procedure for indexing benefits from February 1, 2018.

Early pregnancy registration allowance from February 1, 2018

This benefit is supposed to be paid once (that is, a lump sum). It should be received by women who:

• registered in medical institutions up to 12 weeks of pregnancy;
• have the right to maternity benefits (Article 9 of Law No. 81-FZ).

This benefit from February 1, 2018 is supposed to be paid in a new amount - 628.47 rubles. rubles. However, a controversial situation is possible. Let's give an example.

The employee goes on maternity leave from February 2, 2018. On January 26, 2018, a woman submitted a certificate from antenatal clinic that in 2017 she was registered in the early stages of pregnancy (up to 12 weeks). How much to pay early registration allowance?

The early pregnancy registration allowance should be paid in addition to the pregnancy and childbirth allowance (Article 9 of Law No. 81-FZ). Therefore, the allowance for registration in the early stages of pregnancy must be transferred in the amount that is set at the start date of maternity leave. In our case, the woman went on maternity leave from February 2, 2018. Therefore, the registration allowance should be paid in the amount of 628.47 rubles (taking into account indexation by a factor of 1.025). If the beginning of maternity leave fell on January 2018, then the allowance would be lower - 613.14 rubles.

One-off childbirth benefit from February 1, 2018

One of the parents has the right to a lump sum at the birth of a child. If two or more children were born, then the allowance is paid for each of them (Article 11 of Law No. 81-FZ). The employer must pay the allowance within six months after the birth of the child, if the employee has submitted the documents necessary for the appointment of the allowance (Article 17.2 of Law No. 81-FZ). In connection with the indexation of the benefit from February 1, 2018, an ambiguous situation may arise in the appointment.

The child was born in 2017, and the woman came to the accounting department in February 2018 for the appointment of a lump sum for the birth of a child. How much should I pay?

The amount of a one-time benefit for the birth of a child must be calculated on the date of birth, and not on applying for benefits (letter of the FSS dated 01.17.06 No. 02-18 / 07-337). In our case, the child was born in 2017, so the amount of the benefit will be 16,350.33 rubles. (excluding indexation by a factor of 1.025). Pay a lump sum at the birth of a child in an indexed amount (16,759.09 rubles) if the child is born in the period from February 1, 2018.

Monthly childcare allowance for a child up to 1.5 years from February 1, 2018

Minimum amount of care allowance

The minimum wage from January 1, 2018 is 9489 rubles. See “Minimum wages from January 1, 2018”. Therefore, the minimum benefit from January 1 is RUB 3,795.60(9489 p. X 40%). Less than this amount cannot be paid as a childcare allowance for a child under 1.5 years of age.

The minimum wage for caring for the second and subsequent children has not changed since January 1, 2018. She, as before, was 6131.37 rubles. rubles and after January 1, 2018.

Since February 1, 2018, the indexation coefficient of benefits has been approved at 1.025 (Resolution of the Government of the Russian Federation of January 26, 2018 No. 74 “On Approval of the Indexation Coefficient of Payments, Benefits and Compensations in 2018”). This means that from February 1, if the benefits are indexed, their amounts will be:

• allowance for the first child - 3142, 33 rubles. ($ 3065.69 x 1.032)
• allowance for the second and subsequent children - 6284.65 rubles. (6131.37 p. X 1.025).

It turns out that after indexation from February 1, 2018, the amount of the allowance for the first child turned out to be less than the amount calculated from the minimum wage as of January 1, 2018: 3795.60 rubles. > 3142, 33 p.

At the same time, the amount of the benefit cannot be less than the amount calculated from the minimum wage. Therefore, even after February 1, 2018, the minimum allowance for caring for the first child remains at the level of 3795.60 rubles. However, the minimum allowance for the second and subsequent children will increase from February 1, 2018 - to 6284.65 rubles.

Maximum amount of care allowance

The maximum size of the allowance for caring for a child up to 1.5 years in 2018 is not limited. However, there is a limit to the average daily earnings from which the benefit is calculated.

The size of the average daily earnings for calculating the benefit cannot exceed the sum of the limit values ​​of the base for calculating insurance premiums for the two years preceding the year of the onset of parental leave, divided by 730 (part 3.3 of Art. 14 Federal law dated December 29, 2006 No. 255-FZ). Therefore, in order to determine the maximum amount of average daily earnings, the following formula is used:

It turns out that if an employee's vacation begins in 2018, it is necessary to take into account the values ​​of the limit values ​​of the base for calculating contributions to the Social Insurance Fund for 2016 and 2017. They make up:

• in 2016 - 718,000 rubles;
• in 2017 - 755,000 rubles.

Therefore, in 2018, the maximum average earnings for calculating nursing leave will be RUB 2017.81. ((718,000 rubles + 755,000 rubles) ÷ 730 days).

Next, you need to multiply the average daily earnings by the average monthly number of calendar days, equal to 30.4 (part 5.1 of article 14 of Law No. 255-FZ). Total in 2018 maximum size average monthly earnings for calculating benefits will be 61,341.42 rubles. (2017.81 rubles × 30.4).

The size of the monthly allowance for caring for a child up to 1.5 years is generally equal to 40% of the average monthly earnings (part 1 of article 15 of Law No. 81-FZ). Therefore, in 2018 maximum amount the monthly allowance for one child is 24,536.57 rubles. (61 341.42 rubles × 40%). It is this amount that must be reimbursed from the FSS. Since February 1, 2018, due to the indexation by 1.025, nothing has changed in this amount.

Maternity allowance from 1 February 2018

Minimum BiR benefit

The maternity allowance paid by employers is not indexed annually. That is, since February 1, 2018, the maternity allowance has not increased. However, keep in mind that the maximum allowance has been increased since January 1, 2018, as the new maximum daily average earnings must be taken into account when calculating the allowance since the beginning of 2018. Let us explain.

The maternity allowance is paid in a lump sum and in total for the entire period of maternity leave, which is (part 1 of article 10 of Law No. 255-FZ):

• 140 days (in general);
• 194 days (with multiple pregnancies);
• 156 days (with complicated labor).

Maternity allowance, in general, must be calculated from the average earnings for the billing period, that is, for two years preceding the onset of illness, maternity leave or leave of the year (from January 1 to December 31). Accordingly, if an employee goes on maternity leave in 2018, then the billing period will be 2016 and 2017 (part 1 of article 14 of the Federal Law of December 29, 2006 No. 255-FZ).

However, earnings for the billing period should not be less than a certain amount. The state guarantees the calculation of benefits based on the minimum allowable earnings. It is defined like this:

In total, the minimum wage for the billing period in 2018 is 227,736 rubles. (9489 p. X 24)

Another value that will be required to calculate the maternity allowance is the minimum average daily wage. To find out the minimum average daily earnings for calculating benefits, the accountant needs to divide the resulting value by 730. The following formula is applied:

Accordingly, from January 1, 2018, the minimum average daily wage is 311.967123 rubles per day (227,736 rubles / 730 days). From January 1, 2018, the average daily earnings for calculating benefits cannot be less than this value.

If maternity leave began in 2018, then the minimum average daily earnings for calculating maternity allowance should be taken equal to 311, 97 rubles. If the actual earnings are below the minimum, then the benefit had to be calculated from this value. Here are the minimum amounts of maternity benefits from January 1, 2018:

• RUB 43,675.80 (311.967123 × 140 days) - in the general case;
• RUB 60,521.62 (311.967123 x 194 days) - with multiple pregnancy;
• RUB 48,666.87 (311.967123 x 156 days) - with complicated childbirth.

Maximum BiR allowance

The maximum amount of maternity allowance that an employee can receive is limited by the maximum average daily earnings. In 2018 it is RUB 2017.808219. (718 000 rub. + 755 000 rub.) / 730.

23.08.2019

Maternity allowance is a type of financial assistance that can be credited exclusively to the mother's account. The father and other legal representatives of the newborn cannot claim this payment.

In the general case, the calculation of maternity takes place taking into account her earnings. Sometimes, when determining the amount, the minimum wage is taken into account - the minimum wage.

Who is it for?

Low earnings

If during the billing periods the mother had no income, or it was small, when determining the maternity allowance, it is necessary to use the information specified in article 14 of the Federal Law No. 255.

According to current legislation RF, under the circumstances specified earlier, the monthly salary of an employee is considered to be the minimum wage. In this case, the amount of maternity payment is determined by the following formula.

Formula for calculation:

Min Pos. = (Minimum wage x 24 / Number of days in a year) x Number of vacation days.

It is important to take into account that in this case there is no need to compare and calculate the average daily earnings, as is done with less than six months of experience.

The size of the minimum wage in 2019

It has already been indicated that the minimum wage is an annually changing value.

The current legislation of the Russian Federation determined the amount of the minimum wage from 01/01/2018 - 9489 rubles, from 01/05/2018 - 11,163 rubles, from January 1, 2019 - 11,280 rubles.

Important! It is important to take into account that in some regions of the country the value of the minimum wages may differ.

The current legislation of the Russian Federation does not prohibit an increase in the established amount. Reducing the minimum wage established on the territory of the Russian Federation is prohibited. For example, in the Moscow region for 2018 it reaches 13,750 rubles, in the capital itself - 18,742 rubles.

Together with the minimum wage, the amount of workers' salaries also grows. This action must be recorded in the employment agreement concluded between the employer and the employee. At the same time, for calculating maternity wages, the federal minimum wage is taken, and not the regional one.

Minimum maternity in 2019.

Maternity payment amount

The calculation of the minimum amount of maternity allowance is carried out taking into account recent years the work of the employee. If a woman goes on maternity leave in 2019, 2018 and 2017 are calculated.

If the beginning of the vacation falls on the period from January 1 to December 31, 2019, the minimum value of the average daily wage of a woman is taken as an amount that is equal to 370.85 rubles. ((11280 x 24) / 730).

Thus, the lower limit for the benefit in 2019 = 51,919 rubles. (370.85 x 140).

In case of multiple pregnancies, the working mother receives the other lowest pay = 370.85 x 194 = 71,944.90 rubles.

For childbirth with complications = 370.85 x 156 = 57 852.60 p.

The specified amount is paid to women at a time when they go on maternity leave (maternity leave), at the end of which they draw up the continuation of the decree - leave to care for a child up to 3 years old.

During this period, material support is also paid - it is 40% of earnings, and if it is small, then 40% of the minimum wage, from 1.5 years - it is paid in the amount of 50 rubles.

February indexing

In February 2018, the indexation rules will come into force, which will be permanent. In accordance with them, child benefits will be subject to indexation in February of each year. At the same time, it is planned to take into account the coefficient set by the government of the Russian Federation.

The following types of material assistance are subject to indexation:

• one-time sum of money paid to women registered for early pregnancy;
• a one-time payment credited to the account of one of the parents at the birth of a baby;
• allowance paid monthly.

Important! Maternity payment for pregnancy and childbirth is not subject to indexation, therefore, its minimum size remains unchanged at the present time.

Useful video

For the amount of the minimum maternity allowance in 2018 and the planned changes, see the video.

Article 256 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation grants women who have given birth (adopted) a child the right to take parental leave up to three years old. At the same time, the childcare allowance is paid only until the child reaches 1.5 years of age. If the child's mother went to work earlier, parental leave for up to 3 years can be granted to another close relative (father, grandmother, grandfather).

Those. in fact, a mother, father, guardian or other relative caring for a child under three years of age is entitled to a monthly childcare allowance.

Where to apply for the appointment of a child care allowance

• officially employed;
• unemployed.
