Kostroma families can issue school payments until December 1

Parents of schoolchildren in the Kostroma region can still get regional help to prepare children for the school year. Applications for payments are accepted until December 1. There are two support measures – for large families and for parents of first-graders.

Large families are entitled to 5 thousand rubles for the purchase of school and sports uniforms for each child studying from the first to the eleventh grade. The payment does not depend on family income and is provided once every two years.

In addition, families in which the child first went to school, can get 2 thousand rubles for stationery and other necessary supplies.

For registration of assistance, parents need to apply to the school where the child is studying. The applicant’s passport, SNILS of the parent and children, birth certificates of children and full bank account details will be required. Large families are additionally required to present a certificate of a new sample.

After receiving applications, schools compile lists of recipients and forward the documents to the Social Payment Center. It is this institution that transfers money to families.
