Almost 2.6 thousand pensioners in Kalmykia receive a surcharge for children

In Kalmykia, almost 2.6 thousand parents-pensioners receive an increased fixed payment to the pension for children. The measure of support is provided to those who bring up minor children or students under 23 years of age studying full-time. The SFR branch in the republic provides additional payment to both working and non-working pensioners.

The allowance is set to the old-age or disability insurance pension and is one-third of the fixed payment. This year, its size is equal to 3,194.90 rubles for one child, 6,389.80 rubles for two children and 9,584.69 rubles for three or more. The amount is indexed annually. Both retired parents can receive a surcharge for one child.

Until the 18th anniversary of the child, it is not necessary to confirm his studies. After the age of majority, a certificate of full-time education is required. The right to an increased pension is retained on the student’s academic leave. If the child is expelled or transferred to correspondence or evening education, the payment is terminated, and you need to notify the SFR department.

The supplement is established simultaneously with the appointment of a pension when submitting documents. If the right to it arose later, it is necessary to apply for recalculation through the portal of public services, the MFC or the client service of the SFR Branch. For children born after January 1, 2024, the allowance is granted without application.
