If the status was assigned due to the fact that the man challenged paternity, a copy of the court decision must be provided to Social Security along with the above documents.

There are single mothers all over the world. Some choose this status out of their own convictions, while others have to take it for granted. Nevertheless, it is difficult for a woman to raise a child alone, without government help. When she receives single mother status, benefits and additional payments, benefits help make her life easier.

Status

Before you apply for benefits and benefits, you need to know who is assigned the status of a single mother. In a legal context, this status is defined as “a woman raising a child without a father and having no information about him.”

The following citizens are recognized as single mothers:

• Those who gave birth and are raising one or more children out of wedlock. Provided that paternity has not been properly established. That is, the registry office does not have a statement with information about the second parent.
• Those who gave birth to a child in a legal marriage. Provided that the current or former husband is not the father of the baby, and this is established by the court (proven legally).
• Women who have adopted a child. Provided that such women are not married and the child does not officially have a father.

According to the law, a woman is not recognized as a single mother if she:

• He is divorced and does not receive alimony from his ex-spouse, who is listed as the father of the child(ren).

And along with the certificate, the woman is given a certificate in form 25, which proves that the citizen is a single mother.

State payments and benefits that a single mother is entitled to receive

What other help can a single mother expect? A one-time benefit for those registered early during pregnancy is issued for women who contacted an antenatal clinic during the first 12 weeks of pregnancy.

During its course, a woman needs vitamins and some medications (if necessary). Some of them can be obtained free of charge, on a preferential basis.

Such expectant mothers can simultaneously receive a lump sum benefit if they register in the early stages of pregnancy. As well as maternity benefits.

After the 30th week of pregnancy, the antenatal clinic issues a certificate of incapacity for work. It must be taken to work for subsequent deductions of maternity benefits, which must be at least 100% of average earnings. The benefit is issued within 10 days after submitting all documents. The benefit amount for single mothers is paid in full on the first day of salary payment.

The amount of a one-time payment for women registered in the early stages of pregnancy is 515 rubles. A certificate of this is submitted along with all documents to receive a monthly allowance.

Benefits and payments after the birth of a child

The amount of the one-time benefit is almost 15 thousand rubles. Monthly care payments for up to 1.5 years are paid at the rate of 40% of earnings for the previous 2 years (before pregnancy). A single mother also has the right to them. Benefit:

• for the first child - 2718 rubles;
• for the second - 5436 rubles;
• the maximum is almost 20 thousand rubles.

After the birth of their second and subsequent children, women are given maternity capital, which can only be received by those who gave birth before the age of 35. The state is allowed to spend this money only on the child, and for certain purposes established by law. In some regions of Russia, additional maternity capital is issued.

If a family is considered to have many children, then a number of benefits and benefits apply. And for the third and subsequent children, an additional benefit is paid until they reach the age of 3.

Tariffs for the capital are slightly different. Benefits for single mothers (Moscow) are as follows:

• One-time payment for the first child - 5,500 rubles; for the second - 14,500 rubles.

If a single mother with minor children is evicted from service housing, they must be provided with other housing. Without this condition, a single mother with children is not subject to eviction.

Compensation is provided if such a woman lives in a rented apartment. But to receive such payments, you must have a rental agreement in hand. The monthly compensation amount is 6,400 rubles.

Additional social benefits for single mothers

In addition to the above benefits, single mothers have the right:

Increased monthly benefit

Increased monthly child benefits for single mothers are established independently by local authorities for each region of Russia. For example, with a basic payment of 500 rubles, this figure can be 1,500 rubles.

Most often, such payments exist only until reaching adulthood. But in the case of single mothers, they can be extended until the child is 24 years old, provided that he is studying full-time at one of the universities. All payments are processed at the USZN (Department of Social Protection of the Population).

What documents are needed to receive benefits?

To receive child benefits, single mothers must initially provide the following documents to the local regional SZZN:

• application for additional social benefits or benefits;
• original and photocopy of passport (necessarily with the page where registration is indicated);
• child's birth certificate;
• a certified certificate about the number of people in the family and the age of the children;
• a document that indicates that the woman is not married.

Social guarantees for single mothers in Moscow

What benefits are available to single mothers? As already mentioned above, they are almost the same everywhere, but they differ in the amounts of payments, depending on the region, which has the right to set a larger amount of payments or assign additional ones.

For example, in Moscow, some benefits can only be issued if the woman’s income is below the subsistence level established by law:

• Monthly benefit for up to 1.5 years for single mothers with dependent small children. Moreover, the same payments are provided if the children’s age is 3-18 years. The amount is 1,600 rubles for each child in the family.
• Every month a single mother is paid 3,200 rubles if her children are between one and a half to three years old.

Moreover, if such a woman gets married, but her husband does not adopt a child, then all his income will not be taken into account when calculating the cash benefit.

What other benefits does a single mother receive? Payments that do not depend on family income:

• Every month, such women are compensated for the increased cost of living. If the child is not yet 16 years old or if he is a student - then until his 18th birthday. The amount of compensation payment is 750 rubles.
• Single mothers are paid a monthly amount to compensate for rising food prices, provided that the child is no more than three years old. The amount of compensation is 675 rubles.

To receive payments, you must submit a personal income tax certificate for the previous three months to the regional department of social protection of the population. It is best to choose a time to submit it when the income stated in it does not include maternity payments.

Compensation for single mothers raising disabled children

What is the amount of benefit for a single mother in Russia with a dependent disabled child? If he has group 1 (and a child over 3 years of age), then every month his parent is paid an amount of 6 thousand rubles (it may vary depending on the increase in the cost of living, inflation and the characteristics of the social security of the region). But the payment is made only until the child reaches 18 years of age. If children are disabled from birth, then the period of such payments increases to 24 years. But only on the condition that the child does not officially work.

What benefit does a single mother with a large family receive? Such women can receive additional payments for each child. If there are 3 to 4 children in a family, then the amount will be 600 rubles for each. If from 5 or more, then 750 rubles.

Tax deductions

For single mothers, a standard double deduction is provided, which is provided for each child separately. In other words, this is an amount that is not subject to taxes. For the first and second child - 2800 rubles, for the third and subsequent ones - 6000 rubles. These amounts are not taxed until the children turn 18. After this age - only if they study at a university. Then the period of double tax deduction is extended until the children reach the age of 24.

You need to know that such a benefit can be provided to single mothers only before their marriage.

Raising a child in a single-parent family has always been difficult, even today, surrounded by progress, kindergartens, developmental courses for children and the possibility of outside income. Any penny won't hurt anyway.

Moreover, if the mother is left alone without a husband, breadwinner, support and head of the family, it is doubly difficult for her. Firstly, it’s hard mentally. Secondly, over time it becomes difficult, caring for the child falls entirely on the shoulders of the mother. Thirdly, the financial side of providing for the family. Everything is much more complicated here. It’s good if there are grandparents and other relatives. Then you can entrust the care of the child to them, and some time after the birth you can go to work to earn a living.

Another thing is a completely lonely mother, deprived of all help. In such a situation, besides yourself, you can only rely on the state and wait. Financial assistance can significantly make the life of a mother with a baby in her arms easier. True, in our country such benefits are unfortunately negligible. In fact, everything depends on the region of residence of the woman, but if you compare the standard of living in each of them, then that’s what it will turn out to be. It is unlikely that anyone will refuse monthly assistance as a one-time assistance, so single mothers agree to this.

Legislative aspect of the issue

If a mother decides to raise her child on her own, she acquires legal rights, according to which she is entitled to special rights in society, as well as various and some. In 2019, single mothers have the right to count on financial assistance, taking into account indexation.

There is often confusion when defining single mother status in everyday life. Women who do not fully understand the law demand that they be assigned this category. However, not every mother raising a child without a husband and father will be legally recognized as single.

When a child has an officially recognized father, registered in , there can be no talk of assigning single status to his mother. Moreover, this is regardless of the fact that they live together, whether they take part in raising the child, etc. According to the law, a woman can marry such a spouse, even if they are not officially divorced, or she can forcibly involve the father in raising the child. Although this is her personal right, it is not necessary to use it.

According to Article 48 of the Family Code of the Russian Federation, the man who is recorded in the marriage certificate with a woman as her husband will always be officially recognized as the father. Moreover, this fact will not be affected by his biological paternity; the civil registry office will automatically register the newborn in his name. This entry can only be challenged in court by the child, after he reaches the age of majority, by the father himself, mother or biological father. The procedure for carrying out this process is described in Article 52 of the Family Code of the Russian Federation.

Even a married woman can be a single mother if there is a dash on the child’s birth certificate, or his name and surname are written down from her words. In this case, her status as a single mother will remain with her even if she gets married. However, if the child becomes a legal spouse, the status will cease to have legal effect. By the way, it confirms the special position of women special certificate No. 25.

Woman will be recognized as a single mother, If:

Single mother status is not given a woman if:

• she divorced her husband and does not receive alimony from him;
• the court officially recognized paternity, but they are not married and do not live together;
• the father was declared dead or;
• the child is born within 300 days after the marriage is dissolved or declared invalid.

Who is a single mother?

The woman is recognized as the only parent

whose father is not registered in the child’s birth document.

Other signs of a single mother:

• the paternity of a particular citizen has not been established in court, on the basis of evidence, especially the results of DNA testing, that is, there is no judicial determination on this issue;
• there is a certificate from the civil registry office stating that information about the child’s father was included in the child’s birth certificate at the request of the child’s mother;
• more than 300 days have passed since the divorce between the spouses;
• there is no statement from both parents during the procedure for registering a newborn at the registry office;
• a woman who carried out the procedure for adopting a child, at this time, without being in a marital union;
• children appeared to a woman who, at the time of their birth, was not in a registered marriage union.

Important! Many people mistakenly believe that if a woman divorced the father of her children, then she can legally be considered a single mother; this is not so. When she was left alone with the children as a result of a divorce, it means that a certain person is listed in the paternity section of the children's birth documents. And this factor no longer gives the right to call her a single mother, even if the father, after the divorce, does not take part in raising the children.

Single mother status is not assigned

• a divorced woman who does not receive alimony;
• a woman who gave birth to a child within 300 days after the divorce (the husband is automatically considered the father);
• if the father was identified in court, but for some reason does not live with the family;
• if a woman gave birth to a child 300 days after the death of her husband;
• if the father is deprived of his birthright by a court order. right

When registering a child with the civil registry office, the woman is issued a certificate in form No. 25, which confirms that the mother is the only parent.

The surname of such children is assigned to the mother's, and in the father column, at the woman's request, a dash is entered or the information she provides is written down.

The status of a single mother is retained if the woman got married, but her husband did not adopt her child.

If a woman gets married, but the husband does not adopt the wife’s child, then the employee does not lose her status as a single mother (Article 423 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation, paragraph 11 of the Regulations approved by Resolution of the USSR Council of Ministers of August 12, 1970 No. 659). In this case, legally the woman remains the only person who must raise the child. In one case, the court indicated that the woman has the right to count on financial assistance from the new spouse and his care for all family members (appeal ruling of the Moscow City Court dated September 16, 2014 in the case No. 33–21339/14). However, in this case, the court convicted the employee of hiding a number of family circumstances from the employer and abusing her right. Therefore, it is unknown what decision the court will make in a labor dispute. In a more recent decision, the same court supported the employee (appeal ruling of the Moscow City Court dated April 18, 2016 No. 33 – 12918/2016). In this regard, the employer risks that the employee will be reinstated at work.

Documents to obtain single status

To obtain single mom status, you need to contact the department of social protection of the population at registration with a certain list of documents. Such documents include:

• a statement written by a woman demanding that she receive this status;
• documents confirming the birth of children;

• a certificate stating that the child lives with his mother, and not with his father or another person (can be ordered at the passport office);

Personal income tax benefits for a single mother in 2020, deduction for a single parent

A single mother with many children can use benefits at double the rate. To use this opportunity, you must write an application, which is submitted along with the birth certificate, which does not contain information about the father, i.e. there is a dash. If information about the father is provided according to the mother, the possibility of using a double deduction can only be obtained with a certificate of birth of the child in Form 25. This certificate is issued at the registry office, which contains a mark confirming that information about the father is included in the birth certificate according to mother.

The monthly deduction for the 1st and 2nd child is 2,800 rubles, for the 3rd - 6,000 rubles. The deduction for a child with a disability is even larger.

This year, the personal income tax deduction exists until the income for the year amounts to more than 350,000 rubles.

What responsibilities does an employer have when hiring single mothers?

Dismissal or job reduction. If a single mother is raising a child who is not yet 14 years old or a disabled minor, the employer will under no circumstances fire her on her own initiative. The exceptions to this situation are:

• Closing a company;
• Repeated failure to comply with labor requirements without providing valid reasons, with a previously received disciplinary reprimand;
• Repeated failure to comply with the conditions for performing duties in a rude manner (absenteeism, working while drunk, and much more);
• Commitment by an employee who deals with money or other valuables of acts that cause the loss of the boss’s trust;
• Commitment by an employee who performs educational work of an immoral act or education using violence of a mental or physical nature;
• False documents provided by the employee to enter into a contract.

Vacation at your own expense. In addition to the above benefits, a single mother with a child under 14 years old can take it at any time in accordance with Article 263 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation.

A birth certificate with a dash in the “father” column will not allow you to fire an employee

There are a number of cases in which the court definitely recognizes a woman as a single mother. These include situations when the child’s father:

• not indicated on the birth certificate or information about it was entered according to the mother’s words;
• died or was declared missing;
• deprived of parental rights and limited in parental rights;
• declared incompetent or partially capable.

If there is a dash in the “father” column of the child’s birth certificate or information about the father was entered into the document according to the mother’s words, then the courts consider the woman a single mother (Review of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation for the first quarter of 2010, approved on June 16, 2010, appeal ruling of the Smolensk Regional Court of July 3, 2012 in case No. 33–2018). In the second case, the woman needs to obtain a certificate from the registry office that the entry about the child’s father was made according to her words (form No. 25, approved by Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of October 31, 1998 No. 1274).

There are state and regional programs that support single mothers. But few people know exactly what benefits a single mother can claim in 2019 and what benefits she is entitled to use. In the article we will talk in detail about all the payments that are due to this social category, about the procedure for receiving it, as well as about tax, labor and other social benefits.

Who can get single mother status?

Who is a single mother (SM)? At first glance, the answer is obvious - this is a woman raising a child on her own (without a husband). In fact, not every single mother has status single mothers. In modern legislation there is no official concept of a single mother, but it was in Soviet times. It was first introduced by the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR on July 8, 1944, and the final version was formed in paragraph 8 of Resolution of the Council of Ministers of the USSR No. 659 dated August 12, 1970. This term is still used today at a generally accepted level. Who is legally considered a single mother and who is not?

The status of a single mother is understood as a woman who has a child, in whose birth certificate there is no information about the father, or the father is recorded according to the mother (that is, without establishing paternity, without the status of a parent - p clause 3 of article 17 of the Federal Law “On acts of civil status”, clause 3 of art. 51 of the Family Code of the Russian Federation). Such a woman is assigned a social status and the registry office issues a certificate in form No. 25, according to which she has the opportunity to receive special benefits and enjoy various benefits (tax, labor, etc.).

There are basic criteria by which single women with children receive the status of “single mother”:

• Your baby was born out of wedlock and paternity has not been established by the court. For example, if you live with your spouse in a civil marriage, but the husband did not recognize himself as the father of the baby, and you did not file a claim in court, then you can receive the status of a single mother;
• The baby was born 300 calendar days after you divorced your husband (automatic paternity). But at the same time, your ex-husband has challenged paternity, about which there is a corresponding court decision;
• You have registered an adoption, but you are not officially married. Even if you live with your husband without a signature, you can receive the status of a single mother. This is possible if you carried out the adoption yourself, and your unofficial spouse does not appear in the adoption documents.

Quite common are cases where single mothers try to prove their official status, but are refused by government authorities. Therefore, it is worth separately considering situations when the mother is not recognized as single:

• You are divorced, you don’t communicate with your ex-husband, you don’t know about his whereabouts, and you don’t receive alimony from him. But in this case, you are not a single mother, since the fact of paternity of your ex-husband has been documented (recorded in the birth certificate). Here we are talking about the ex-husband’s failure to fulfill his parental obligations (evasion of alimony payments, for example);
• There is a court decision in which your spouse is recognized as the father of the baby. The court may decide to recognize your common-law or former spouse as the father, regardless of whether you live with him or not;
• There is no paternity in relation to the baby, but the woman is officially married;
• You divorced your husband (or your marriage was declared invalid), and within 300 calendar days after that you gave birth to a baby. In this case, your ex-husband will be recognized as the father.

Let's consider the last case in more detail. Regardless of the wishes of your ex-spouse, even whether he is the biological father, he will be entered on the birth certificate. It does not change anything if after the divorce you lived in a civil marriage with another person. In order for your common-law husband to be recognized as the baby’s father, you need his decision and a corresponding application to the registry office.

Often the factor of marriage is overlooked to determine status, they say, the child does not have an official father, then the mother will be single in any case (in the situation with this child). So, the latter loses its MO status, although, in fact, it remains the only parent for the child. Some regional laws mention this. So in a bz. 8 clause 1.3. Decree of the Moscow Government No. 973-PP dated November 6, 2007 clearly states that a single mother should not be married.

So, the factors for recognizing you as a single mother are raising a child outside of marriage and the lack of documented paternity. Social status is confirmed by a certificate f. No. 25, which is issued by the civil registry office on the basis of a birth certificate (in the “Father” column there is a dash or the father is written down from the words of the mother).

Sometimes social status is confirmed by a court decision. When a single mother is denied relevant benefits and rights to state support, this status can be established in court.

Previously, the position of the Ministry of Defense was certified by the personal book of a single mother. Currently, such a document is not issued by social security institutions. But if it exists, then it retains its power.

There are cases when in one family, in relation to different children, the same woman can simultaneously be a MO and at the same time not have such status, because a single parent is determined in connection with a specific child.

For example, unmarried citizen Spirina A.A., has three children: a son and two daughters. The daughters were born in a marriage (which is currently dissolved) and paternity is not disputed (the ex-husband pays alimony). And the son was born out of wedlock, without a record of the father in the certificate. So in relation to the son of Spirin A.A. a single mother, but in relation to her daughters, an ordinary mother.

Cash payments: amounts and procedure

Absolutely all mothers (including those raising a baby on their own) have the right to social insurance payments in connection with pregnancy and at the birth of a child, namely:

• If you are pregnant for up to 12 weeks, you go to the clinic at your place of residence and register, then you are entitled to a one-time payment in the amount of 628.47 rubles;
• After 30 weeks of pregnancy, the antenatal clinic doctor will issue you a sick leave, according to which payments are calculated at the place of work. Along with the sick leave, there is a birth certificate with a total value of 11,000 rubles. It can be spent on medical services in a antenatal clinic, maternity hospital, children's clinic, as well as on the purchase of medicines;
• At birth, you receive a state benefit, which is paid one-time in the amount of 16,759.09 rubles. In addition, until the child reaches 1.5 years of age, a monthly allowance is due, the minimum amount of which is 3,142.33 rubles. for the first child for subsequent 6,284.65 rubles. It should be noted that such assistance can only be received by the person who actually cares for the baby, that is, is on maternity leave.

There are also additional payments and benefits for mothers of many children, such as maternity capital, benefits until the child reaches 3 years old, etc. Maternity capital is due to the mother at the birth of her second, third and subsequent children. Its size is fixed by law and in 2017 is 453,026 rubles. Regional maternity capital for 3 children can be received not only by a single mother, but also by mothers raising children in two-parent families.

As for the additional payments that single mothers are entitled to, their size and procedure for receiving them are under the control of regional authorities. The amount of payments varies depending on the average family income (above or below the subsistence level). Often single mothers are entitled to standard payments (like other mothers), but at an increased rate. The question often arises of how long a single mother can receive benefits. The answer is individual in each specific case and depends on the number of children in the family, the average per capita income per family member/total family income, the status of the child (disabled/healthy), as well as the social policy of local authorities. In most regions of the Russian Federation, single mothers receive the following types of financial assistance:

• additional benefit (one-time) for the birth of a child (this is practiced in the Volgograd region);
• bonus monthly social assistance for a single mother (for example, in Voronezh its amount is 514.80 rubles, in Novosibirsk 478.31 rubles);
• monthly payments for child care up to 3 years old;
• benefit for the 3rd child, which is paid monthly until he reaches 3 years of age;
• assistance for a mother raising a disabled child (can be paid until the child reaches 18 years of age);
• targeted targeted monetary assistance (for example, in Bashkortostan, from 15,000 to 100,000 rubles are allocated for vocational training, for running a private farm, business, etc.);
• compensation for parental fees for non-attendance at kindergartens (applied in the Ulyanovsk region);
• long-term payments for children of single mothers from 0 to 16/18 years (appointed, for example, in the Leningrad region);
• other cases.

In general, the status of a municipal organization implies the receipt of standard benefits, additional payments to benefits (increased amount), separate social assistance (targeted for the municipal organization) in cash and in kind, benefits (social plan), guarantees (in medical, labor relations) and various benefits in various spheres of life.

To find out what benefits are available to single mothers in your area, contact your local social security office.

Amount of benefits in Moscow

In order to understand the procedure for providing financial assistance to single mothers, let’s consider the situation with social payments in Moscow.

The amount of payments directly depends on the average family income, namely on whether the income exceeds the subsistence level or not. If a family consists of 2 people (mother and baby), then the minimum is 31,065 rubles. per month (mother 17,624 rubles + child 13,441 rubles). If you live in Moscow and your income is below this indicator, then you can count on:

• payment to compensate for the increase in the cost of living in Moscow. This assistance is paid monthly until the child turns 16 years old (for schoolchildren, university students, technical schools and other full-time educational institutions - up to 18 years old). Amount of assistance – 750 rubles/month;
• allowance in the amount of 2,500 rubles. It is received monthly by mothers of children under 1.5 years old, as well as from 3 to 18 years old;
• assistance in the amount of 4,500 rubles, which is paid on a monthly basis to mothers of children from 1.5 to 3 years old.

If your income is above the subsistence level, you will not receive the above assistance. But at the same time you have the right to:

• compensation payment in the amount of 300 rubles. monthly. Paid until the child reaches 16 years of age (for full-time students - 18 years of age);
• compensation for rising food prices (675 rubles monthly for children under 3 years old). Mothers receive the same assistance in cases where the ex-husband evades paying alimony;
• assistance in caring for a disabled child of groups 1 and 2 or disabled since childhood (6,000 rubles monthly). The mother receives payments until her son/daughter turns 18 and only if the child does not work, and if the child has been disabled since childhood - until the age of 23.

Also, the Moscow authorities have appointed a benefit for the second child, which is paid one-time in the amount of 14,500 rubles. All mothers can count on this help, regardless of whether they have the status of a single mother or not.

The amount of social assistance for single mothers in Moscow is considered quite high compared to other regions of the Russian Federation, which in turn is associated with the high level of consumer prices in the capital.

Example No. 1.
Moscow resident Samsonova E.D. independently raises two children - daughter Samsonova S.V. (schoolgirl, 15 years old) and son Samsonov V.V. (4 years). Average monthly income of Samsonova E.D. – 41,610 rub. The cost of living for a family is 44,506 rubles. (mother 17.624 + son 13.441 + daughter 13.441). Let's calculate the amount of financial assistance to which the Samsonov family is entitled. Since the Samsonovs’ income is below the subsistence level established in Moscow, the Samsonovs can claim:

• 2,500 rubles each. for daughter Samsonova S.V. and son Samsonov V.V., total 5,000 monthly;
• compensation payments taking into account the difference in consumer prices, 750 rubles. for a son and daughter, a total of 1,500 monthly;
• one-time assistance for the son of Samsonov V.V. – 14.500.

Thus, the Samsonov family will receive 14,500 one-time and 6,500 monthly (5,000 + 1,5000).

How to get benefits

For payments, you need to contact the social security authority at your place of residence, having first collected the necessary documents:

• child's birth certificate (copy);
• a certificate from the registry office, which indicates that information about the father was recorded from the words of the mother (if such a fact occurred);
• a certificate from the Criminal Code with information about the composition of the family (confirms that the son/daughter lives with the mother);
• Form No. 25, confirming the status of a single mother (the document can be obtained from the registry office when registering a birth certificate).

If the status of a single mother is assigned due to the fact that the ex-husband has challenged paternity of a son/daughter born in marriage, then along with the above documents, a copy of the court decision must be submitted to Social Security.

Payment of benefits is assigned from the month when the documents were transferred to Social Security, so it is in your interests to take care of providing the papers as soon as possible. Assistance is transferred until the child reaches a certain age, within which payments are assigned.

Labor guarantees

Labor legislation provides single mothers with social protection during employment, in the workplace, and also in the event of dismissal. What labor benefits are available to a single mother?

• when hiring, there is a privilege compared to other candidates for the position (although this is more of a moral side of the issue). But in any case, denial of employment cannot be based on the fact that you are raising a child alone. The employer is obliged to provide a justified reason for not approving your candidacy for the vacant position;
• if you are officially employed, then you have the right to demand that your employer establish a part-time working day (if your son/daughter is under 14 years old);
• If the baby is under 5 years old, then you can refuse overtime work, night shifts, work on weekends and holidays. Management has no right to force or apply any disciplinary action;
• As a single mother, you are entitled to child care benefits in case of illness. Its amount depends on your work experience and salary, as well as on whether the child is treated as an inpatient or outpatient.

A single mother cannot be fired in the event of a reduction in staff (similar to pregnant women), a change in management, or in the civil service - when access to state secrets is terminated.

But an employer can fire a woman during the liquidation of an enterprise (for example, due to bankruptcy), but at the same time he is assigned financial obligations in connection with the upcoming employment of the dismissed woman.

Tax benefits

According to the Tax Code of the Russian Federation, a single mother has the right to a reduced tax burden in the form of a deduction when calculating personal income tax. If, as a standard, each parent is provided with a deduction in the amount of 1,400 rubles, then a single woman has the right to a double rate of 2,800 rubles. Compensation is provided for each child under 18 years of age. If the son/daughter is a full-time student at a university, technical school, or is a resident, cadet, or graduate student, then the tax refund for the mother remains until they reach 24 years of age. When raising a disabled child, the mother receives a deduction of 6,000 rubles.

Compensation is provided to the mother on a monthly basis. To do this, it is necessary to submit documents confirming the status of a single mother to the place of work: form No. 25 or a certificate from the registry office, if information about the father is indicated according to the mother. Based on these documents, the accounting department recalculates personal income tax on a monthly basis: the tax is calculated based on total income minus deductions.

Example No. 2.
Sviridova S.D. independently raises two children - the son of Sviridov G.P. (25 years old, resident) and daughter Sviridov E.P. (21 years old, full-time student at a university). Average monthly income of Sviridova S.D. is 14,820 rubles. Let's calculate the amount of tax compensation for each child:

• despite the fact that the son of Sviridov G.P. is a resident, a deduction cannot be issued for him. This is due to the fact that the son is over 24 years old;
• for daughter Sviridova E.P. You can apply for compensation, since she is under 24 years old and is a full-time student. Compensation for a daughter is provided in the standard amount - 2,800 rubles.

In general, Sviridova S.D. pays personal income tax from monthly income:

14.820 * 13% = 1.927

After registration of the deduction, the tax will be calculated as follows:

(14.820 – 2.800) * 13% = 1.563

Thus, for the Sviridov family, the monthly savings are:

1.927 – 1.563 = 364 rubles.

In addition to providing a deduction, tax legislation exempts single mothers from paying property taxes. True, at the municipal level, that is, at the discretion of legislators of a particular locality (for example, in Norilsk). There are no benefits at the federal level (universally).

The situation is similar with land and transport taxes.

Fringe benefits

There are other social benefits for single mothers, the provision of which is guaranteed by municipal legislation (that is, not in all regions and localities):

• a set of free baby clothes for your baby;
• provision of food in the children's dairy kitchen for children under 2 years of age;
• free massage for children in the clinic (if this service is paid for everyone);
• benefits for admission to kindergarten (children of single mothers enter preschool institutions out of turn);
• free vouchers to children's health resorts.

Regional authorities may provide additional social support. For example, single mothers in Moscow are entitled to benefits in the form of free two meals a day for schoolchildren. If the child is studying at an art school, then, according to the Resolution of the Culture Committee, a single mother pays for her studies with a 30% discount.

In order to clearly understand which benefits are available to single mothers and which are not, let’s look at the table.

	Availability of benefits	General grounds
Labor benefits	Privilege when hiring; the right to part-time work (if the son/daughter is under 14 years old); the right to refuse night and overtime work (if the son/daughter is under 5 years old); maintaining a job when staffing is reduced.	reduction is possible upon liquidation of the enterprise; if the child is over 7 years old, then sick leave after the 15th day of illness is not paid at 100% (payment is made in the general manner according to length of service)
Tax benefits	exemption from property tax; the right to a tax deduction (RUB 2,800 for each child).	if the son/daughter is over 24 years old, then the tax deduction is not provided (even if the child is a full-time student)
Social benefits	Regional/municipal benefits: free sets of linen for newborns; free food (dairy kitchen for newborns, two meals a day for schoolchildren); advantage in the queue for admission to kindergarten. Regional benefits: discount when paying for tuition at art schools, sports clubs, etc.; full provision in a preschool institution.

To clarify information about benefits and the procedure for applying for them, a single mother must contact the social protection authorities at her place of residence.

How does the loss of MO status affect the receipt of benefits, benefits, etc.

When a mother loses her single status (gets married, adopts a child, etc.), the question often arises about the fate of government assistance.

If we are talking about a one-time benefit, then previously received payments are inviolable; they are not subject to return, recalculation, offset, etc.

As for monthly state/regional benefits, the recipient of assistance (MO) must report changes in their life situation within the nearest reasonable time (to the same place where they applied for benefits) before the next payment is received. Otherwise, a recalculation is possible, and if this information is deliberately concealed for a long time, the police may become interested in this fact (upon a statement from the payer of state/regulatory assistance about fraud).

Question answer

Question:
A woman is raising her son on her own due to the fact that the father is deprived of parental rights. Can a woman obtain single mother status?

No, since the ex-husband is actually the father, as documented (birth certificate). Single mother status can only be obtained if information about the father is not documented.

Question:
A woman is raising a daughter who is disabled group 2. At the age of 17, the daughter was officially employed. How much benefit can a mother expect?

Payments in the amount of 6,000 rubles. are transferred to the mother monthly until her daughter’s employment. The assistance ends in the month when the daughter returns to work. Social and tax benefits remain in full, regardless of whether the daughter works or not.
