How does the state help parents of a third child?
It is quite difficult for the average Russian family to raise three children without government support. They need more money to support their family than those who have one child. As a rule, mothers have to go on maternity leave for a long time, which also reduces the total family income.
Land, preferential mortgage and maternity capital
One of the ways of support for families with three or more children is to receive a plot of land, which is registered in the name of all children and parents. The rules and conditions for the allocation of preferential land in a particular region are established by regional authorities.
In addition, the government is constantly developing new support measures aimed at improving living conditions. Until 2022, there is a state subsidy program for families with children who receive a preferential mortgage at 6% per annum.
All parents at the birth of a third child or his adoption after 2006 can use maternity capital. It will not be possible to receive this amount in cash, but you can use the certificate money for legally established purposes.
Early retirement and vacations
Women who have 3 or more children may retire earlier than those who have fewer or no children. With three children, the retirement date is shifted by 3 years, with four - by 4 years, mothers with many children with five children or more will retire at 50 years old. But to do this, the woman must have 15 years of experience and a set number of pension points that will be valid in the year of retirement. For example, in 2021, 21 points must be earned. Moreover, all decrees before children reach 1.5 years of age entitle them to a certain pension point:
- first child – 1.8 points;
- second – 3.6;
- third, fourth and subsequent children – 5.4.
To find out how many pension points have already been accumulated, read Brobank's article.
Fathers with many children do not have the right to early retirement. But they, like mothers, can apply for leave at a time convenient for them, and not according to the schedule approved by the employer. This will be the case as long as three children in the family are simultaneously under 12 years of age.
An additional preference for parents with many children - they cannot be fired without consent if we are talking about the only breadwinner and the youngest child is not yet 3 years old.
Regional maternal (family) capital in the Saratov region
In the amount of 30% of the payment for utilities, calculated on the basis of the amounts actually paid for utility bills, and for those living in houses that do not have central heating - 30% of the cost of fuel purchased within the limits established for sale to the public.

Large families
Families with three or more minor children, as well as adult children under the age of 23 studying full-time in educational institutions, are recognized.
When applying for payment after six months from the date of birth of the child (from the date the right to EDV arose), it is assigned and paid for the elapsed time, but no more than six months before the date of filing the application for assignment of EDV with the necessary documents attached, and not earlier than since January 1, 2013.
Right to monthly cash payment
(hereinafter - EDV) has one of the parents (adoptive parents) for a third child (natural, adopted) living with him and
each
of the subsequent children (natural, adopted) born between January 1, 2013 and December 31, 2024. When In this case, the average per capita family income should not exceed the average per capita monetary income of the population in the Saratov region for the year preceding the year of application for the assignment of the EDV (the year of receipt of the EDV), calculated by the territorial body of the federal executive body in the field of state statistics for the Saratov Region.
EDV is paid until the day the child reaches the age of three years inclusive
and is assigned from the date of birth of the child or from the date the right to the EDV arises, but not earlier than January 1, 2013, if the application for the appointment of the EDV followed no later than six months from the date of birth of the child (from the date the right to a monthly cash payment arose).
A large family in Russia is considered to be a family with three or more children. The state is trying to support such heroes as best it can. In the article we will look at what they give for the 3rd child and how much in money. We will not discuss whether this is a lot or a little. There are other platforms for this. Our task is to suggest what parents with many children can receive from the state in 2021.
Payments for the third child
The recipient of child benefits most often becomes the mother. But in some cases it may be the father, and even less often, other relatives. In Russia, one-time and regular payments are allocated for each child:
- Benefits for pregnant and postpartum women. Those mothers who work officially can receive the payment. The unemployed will not be able to qualify for this type of financial support.
- A benefit paid to mothers for early registration in the housing complex. Money is allocated only to those who register before the 12th week of pregnancy. These payments are also given only to employed women.
- One-time payment at the birth of the third child. The amount is paid to all mothers - both employed and unemployed.
- Monthly payments for child care. The money can be received by working and non-working parents or other relatives who actually care for the child.
Employed citizens receive more cash benefits than unemployed people. Some families will be assigned other payments, but they are either insignificant in amount or only families with very low incomes can receive them. To appoint them, you will need to confirm your low-income status.
We issue a monthly allowance
This year, a new monthly benefit has been introduced, which can be received for a baby born in 2021. Its size is set depending on the regional subsistence level. As a rule, it is about 10,000 rubles. Benefits are paid until the child reaches one and a half years of age. Payment is assigned directly. Funds are provided subject to these conditions:
- Low income family.
- The first child was born.
- The baby was born or adopted no earlier than January 1, 2018.
Parents, adoptive parents or guardians can receive the payment. Sometimes monthly benefits are waived. In particular, this happens in the following circumstances:
- Deprivation of parental rights.
- The baby went on state support.
- Restrictions on parental rights.
- The baby was temporarily removed from their family on the initiative of the guardianship authorities.
The benefit is expected to increase in the future. You can submit an application to receive payments before the child turns 1.5 years old. If the application is submitted before the baby is six months old, funds are accrued from the date of birth. If the baby is already 6 months old, funds are transferred from the moment the application is submitted.
Documents are sent to government service centers or the social security department. These papers are required to be submitted:
- Application for setting monthly payments.
- Birth certificate.
- Bank account information.
- Passport.
- A certificate of income for each parent for the last 12 months.
If the monthly payment is made by one parent, these papers are needed:
- Death certificate, document on deprivation of parental rights or cancellation of adoption.
- Divorce paper.
Funds are credited over 12 months. After this period has passed, a new application for payments is submitted.
One-time payments for the third child
Mothers with three children are given several one-time payments:
Payments | Characteristic |
When registering with a medical institution before 12 weeks of pregnancy | The money is usually paid along with maternity benefits. The basis for receiving the amount is sick leave and a medical certificate. The amount of this payment is indexed annually. In 2020, the payment is 675.15 rubles. |
At the birth of the baby | The payment amount is subject to indexation annually. In 2021, the amount is 18 thousand rubles. |
For pregnancy and childbirth | One of the parents can receive this money at the birth of the baby. The amount of the amount is determined individually based on wages and other income on which all required taxes and fees have been paid. |
All these benefits are due not only to the third child, but also to the first, second, fourth and subsequent children. It is most convenient to receive them on a debit card. To do this, just provide your bank account details or card number and data.
Who can receive
In 2014, the President of the Russian Federation signed a law according to which families entitled to a free plot of land at the birth of their third and subsequent children can replace it with an apartment. To do this, the family must not have any other living space in their property.
Mortgage benefits
- Mortgage loan with no down payment for up to 30 years.
- Certificate for housing (or for construction) in an amount equal to 90% of the total cost of finished or planned real estate (one of the parents must live in our country for at least 12 years, and the total work experience of mom and dad must exceed 10 years).

Last year, the federal maternity capital program underwent major changes: payments began to be provided not only for 2, but also for 1 child. The amount of money changed depending on when exactly the children were born.
Saratov families will receive more for the birth of a third child

Birth payments
Standard maternity leave is 140 days. 70 of them are given before childbirth and the remaining 70 after. In case of childbirth with complications, the leave is extended to 156 days, and in case of multiple pregnancy – up to 194 days.
To receive the payment, a woman at 30 weeks of pregnancy applies for sick leave at the antenatal clinic. In order to fill it out correctly, you need to provide the correct name of the employing organization and the position held by the employee. After this, you can write an application in free form or according to the employer’s sample for temporary absence from work due to childbirth. These documents must be given to the employer. The manager issues an order on maternity leave, which is signed by him and the pregnant employee.
In addition to the sick leave certificate and application, you will need:
- certificate of income for the last 2 years;
- identification document if necessary;
- bank account number or card for transferring money; if the employee has a salary card, then payments will go to her.
To calculate the payment amount, take income for the previous 2 years and divide it by the number of days for this working period. The result obtained is multiplied by the number of days of maternity leave.
For example, in 2 years a woman earned 800 thousand rubles. We divide the resulting amount by 730, the number of days in the period, and we get 1095 rubles. Multiply by 140. The employee will receive 153,300 maternity rubles. The amount for early registration at a medical institution will be added to this if the woman provides a supporting certificate.
Regular payments
Mothers receive monthly child care payments for children under 1.5 years of age. The maximum period of care can last up to 3 years. In 2020, money is given from the birth of a child until he turns 3 years old. The state is responsible for issuing benefits for the period from one and a half to three years. The employer transfers money for children under 1.5 years old.
To calculate the monthly payment, the period for the previous 2 years is also taken into account. But from this period, days are taken away when insurance premiums were not withheld from the employee’s income. Such periods include sick leave and maternity leave. Also, the calculation takes into account the highest and lowest average daily earnings. The minimum income for 2021 is 398 rubles.
The smallest monthly benefit for the first child is 4,852 rubles for full-time employment, but if the mother did not work full-time, then the minimum amount is 3,375.77 rubles. For the second, third and subsequent children, the minimum monthly payment is 6,752 rubles. But the maximum amount is 27,984 rubles.

Tax benefits for large families
Families in which a third child was born are entitled to land and property taxes and increased tax deductions. The standard deduction for the first two children is 1,400 rubles, and starting from the third, the amount is 3,000 rubles. That is, a large family with three children will save:
(1400+1400+3000) * 13% * 12 months = 9048 rubles.
Some preferences that are given to Russian families with children in the Russian Federation do not depend on the number of children. All payments for children at birth and parental leave are accompanied by a complete exemption of the accrued amount from income tax and insurance contributions.
Also, those payments that the employer pays to mothers with children at their own request are not subject to income tax. But the amount of such financial support for female employees cannot exceed 50 thousand rubles per child.
Some regions approve additional benefits for families with three or more children. But to receive them you will need to confirm your status as a family with many children. For example, they reduce or exempt from transport tax. But such benefits are not approved at the federal level. They are given by regional authorities from the local budget, so they are valid only for residents of certain districts in the Russian Federation.
Procedure for obtaining a certificate
- First of all , it is necessary to give birth to a third child.
- Next, contact your local civil registry office to obtain the baby’s birth certificate.
- Go to the passport office to put all the necessary marks in your passport.
- Get a special certificate here that will confirm your child’s citizenship.
- Submit the entire package of documents to the pension fund.
- Expect a response from the Pension Fund within one month.

According to existing legislation, all large families with three or more children are provided with additional benefits.
These include:
- Thirty percent discount on housing and communal services payments.
- Compensation for all fuel required to heat the home - if this family lives in an unheated room.
- Free medicines prescribed by a doctor for a child under six years of age.
- Free travel on public transport.
- First priority for admission
- Free and regular breakfast in schools.
- Free school uniform or any other clothing for attending school.
- Free uniform required for sports activities while the child is in school.
- Free admission to museums , attractions and exhibitions for one full day per month.
- Assistance in organizing a farm.
- Material aid.
- Exemption from full payment of the existing registration fee for individual entrepreneurs.

Regional benefits and relaxations
Families with a third baby claim:
- extraordinary receipt of a place in kindergarten;
- free meals in schools and vocational education institutions;
- benefits for utility bills of 30% or more, depending on decisions made in the region, but in a number of areas only low-income families can apply for it;
- free medicines for children under 6 years of age;
- free travel pass for all children under 16 or 18 years of age.
Carefully study local legislation to know what privileges you can count on in your region if there are three or more children in the family. Some regions help bring first-graders to school, while others provide students with school and sports uniforms and free textbooks.
Obtaining a land plot
Large families with a third child have the right to count on receiving a plot of land for building a household (IZHS). The procedure for providing such property depends on the region of residence of the family. The most developed program is considered to be in remote regions. For example, in the North they give out 2 hectares of land for individual housing construction. A similar rule applies in the suburbs of large settlements. There you can get up to 20 acres of land.
It is worth considering that the land plots are not equipped for living. Over the course of 2-3 years, the owner of the land must build a suitable place for living
house. He has no right to sell the plot.
For those families who do not want to take a plot, but want to purchase one more suitable for them, the region allocates so-called land capital. For example, in St. Petersburg its size in 2021 was 369,779.92 rubles.
Many regions are ready to give money instead of land, because there are simply no suitable plots of land owned by municipalities. And it is large families that will be given priority for receiving a plot.
Matkapital for a third child
Maternity capital is a separate way of state support for families with children. It can be received in most cases by the mother of the children, sometimes by the father or the child himself. Maternity capital is issued in the form of a certificate. It is impossible to cash it out; you can only spend it on those purposes approved by the state.
Starting from 2021, maternity capital began to be paid for the first child in the amount of 466 thousand rubles, for the second and third children they give an additional 150 thousand. After the birth of the third child, the family receives the right to partial repayment of the mortgage in the amount of 450 thousand rubles. The money is allocated once and under one mortgage agreement.
If the mortgage was taken out a long time ago and the remaining debt on it is less than 450 thousand rubles, then the family can use the remaining part for other purposes, but not for the mortgage. At the same time, the year of birth of the child is important; if he was born before 2021, then the state will not issue this amount.
To issue a certificate for maternity capital you need:
- The passport of the mother of the children or a power of attorney for another person, if the woman cannot independently apply for a certificate.
- Birth certificates for all children. If the child was adopted, then the appropriate documents are needed.
- Application for a certificate.
Additional documents will need to be submitted if the family:
- lives in another country;
- one or both parents died or lost their rights to the child.
It was decided to extend the maternity capital program until December 2026, so if a child is born during this period, families will be able to receive this type of government support.
How to get a certificate
After all the documents for maternity capital have been collected, you can submit them to the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation. You can do this:
- By mail.
- Through MFC.
- On the government services website.
- At the local FIU office.
- At the bank when applying for a mortgage.
Keep in mind that the method of receiving maternity capital through government services will speed up the queue at the Pension Fund branch. But he does not cancel a personal visit to the department.
It takes from 5 to 15 days to review the application and documents. After this period, Pension Fund employees will notify the applicant of the decision made. They may refuse if erroneous information is provided in the documents or if any inconsistencies are identified in the originals.
Keep in mind that a family receives the right to receive maternity capital only if they have Russian citizenship. If you don’t have a Russian passport and you live in another country, you won’t be able to get the money.
In addition to maternity capital from the state, you can also receive money from local budgets for your third child. Each region that provides additional support for families with children has its own amounts and rules for receiving them. For example, for residents of the Sverdlovsk region, the amount of regional maternity capital in 2021 is 140 thousand rubles, in the Astrakhan region - 50 thousand rubles, and for families in St. Petersburg - 160 thousand rubles. And this does not cancel the right to receive federal maternity capital, which is issued to all Russian families.

Cash support for certain categories of citizens
A number of families in Russia have the right to receive additional funds.
The state is ready to provide a mother with three children:
- Federal maternity capital. Money began to be issued in 2007. The parents of the second or subsequent offspring have the right to claim the amount. If in the fall of 2007 there were already two minor offspring, maternity capital is paid for the birth of the third. The purposes for spending funds are strictly defined. They can be used to educate children, improve living conditions, mother’s pension or treatment of a disabled child. In some situations, the father can also receive money.
- Regional maternity capital. Represents an option for additional support. The amount and possibility of receiving funds depend on the region. In some regions of the Russian Federation, the amount reaches 429,000 rubles. However, families can usually receive no more than 100,000 rubles. Depending on local law, the purposes for which funds are spent may vary significantly. A similar rule applies to conditions. Thus, in a number of regions money is provided only to low-income or single-parent families.
- Payments to wives of military personnel. Funds are provided one-time. A pregnant wife has the right to receive 26.7 thousand rubles. Money is given to the wives of military personnel serving under conscription. Payment is provided in the third trimester of pregnancy. Wives of contestants do not have the right to claim funds.
- Benefits for the child of a military personnel. Conscripts are not eligible to receive funds. The amount is 11.3 thousand rubles. and is paid every month until the child reaches three years of age.
- Survivor's benefit. Provided if the father, who was the only working person in the family, died. The payment amount is 2.3 thousand rubles.
- Maternity payments for the birth of the third and subsequent children. The amount is issued in a lump sum. Its size is 50,000 rubles.
- Benefit for fostered children. A method of support is provided to foster families. At a time, adoptive parents will receive about 17,000 rubles. If a disabled child is taken in and is over seven years old or several children are taken into care at once, the amount increases to 129,000 rubles. The amount of the surcharge increases due to the fact that it becomes more difficult to support a minor.
- The child was born into a family living in the Chernobyl contamination zone. For children under one and a half years old they provide 3.2 thousand rubles. If the age of the offspring has reached 1.5–3 years, the payment will increase to 6.5 thousand rubles.
A number of compensations are available only to women who have given birth to 5–10 children. Requirements may vary significantly by region.
