Is the fee paid to foster parents?

Is the fee paid to foster parents? This question interests many potential adopters. After all, it is not always so easy to decide on the upbringing of someone else's baby. He, like his own children, needs to be fed, watered, dressed. All this requires spending some money. I would like in the case of adoption to get some material support from the state. Indeed, in fact, it is precisely the guardianship and custody of orphans. So, it contains minors. Can foster parents rely on certain funds?

Adoptive parents

The first thing that should be paid attention is that adoption issues are a personal decision of every citizen. No one forces the family to adopt or adopt children.

Also, when registering guardianship, foster parents receive all the powers to educate and to provide care for a minor. So, the child will become like a native. And the reward to adoptive parents by law is not allowed.

Foster family

But there are exceptions. After all, in Russia there is still such a thing as an adoptive family. Do not confuse it with ordinary adoption. The thing is that the law on remuneration to foster parents exists in the country. And it starts to act only at certain moments.

Which ones? If the "adoptive family" is indicated in the adoption documents, the money will still be paid. So, the foster parents should be rewarded. It is in the concluded contract that the period of the child's stay in one or another cell of the society is registered, as well as the amount of money paid.

Who can become an adoptive family?

Not all are able to become a foster family. Therefore, it should be understood who has such a right in Russia. Otherwise, the payment of the fee to foster parents simply will not take place.

At the moment, the following categories of citizens can serve as foster families in the country:

• Adult citizens with enough money to keep an orphan;
• Single people or couples with officially registered relationships;
• In a civil marriage, couples can take care of not one child, but only two.

In fact, the above conditions give the right to become adoptive parents, and to be registered as a foster family. In the second case, the contract is signed with the state. It is this that will transfer money for the maintenance of the child.

Fixed payment

But in what sizes? This question is also of interest to most foster families. I always want to know what support from the state can be expected in this or that case. It is already clear that if the reward to foster parents is not allowed. But the families - quite. And, as it was said earlier, all the features and amounts of payments are registered in the contract being concluded.

At this time in Russia, the size of the fee paid to foster parents is fixed. And all foster families will receive some money. But in what particular dimensions?

The fixed lump sum is 14 704 rubles. This is money that foster families receive only once at the time of registration of all documents. You can say the analogue of the payment at the birth of a child. But this is not all.

Guardianship

The thing is that the reward to foster parents is laid when guardianship is registered. In this situation, the money will be paid monthly. Practically as a pension or any other benefit.

Most often, custodians are taken care of by blood relatives. Guardians are also single people, and couples, and full-fledged families. To increase the well-being of a citizen who took responsibility for the upbringing of his or her child, a monthly fee is required for foster parents. It is paid, as it is not difficult to guess, until the age of the ward.

On the state of health

By the way, the amount of remuneration that will be granted to the foster family on a monthly basis is not fixed at the legislative level. In each region, their amounts are set, payable. Therefore, it is necessary to find out the exact information on this issue in your city.

But there are generally accepted rules that affect the amount of remuneration. Adoptive parents are paid money depending on the state of health of the child. So, for example, citizens receive more money for the care and guardianship of a disabled minor. And for the fact that the family took a healthy baby, less.

On the example of Moscow

It is already clear that the reward for foster parents in the subjects of the Russian Federation is paid a variety. It all depends on the internal rules of the region. What can count, for example, residents of Moscow and the Moscow region?

At the moment, the monthly payment, which is given to one of the parents in the foster family, is 16,700 rubles. This payment is only for a healthy child. But for the implementation of care for a disabled minor, Moscow residents will receive 28,390 rubles. If we talk about raising not your child in the Moscow region, the payments will decrease slightly. But they will depend on the juvenile's health group.

So, for example, 12,650 rubles (up to 3 years old) or 9,200 (over 36 months) are supposed to be paid to adoptive parents for care not for their baby, which belongs to group 1-2. For all other groups of health, a monthly fee of 25,000 foster parents is required. But this is only for residents of the Moscow region. How much money does the foster family pay in a particular city? This information should be consulted in the city administration.

Another point - usually these payments are only for one of the parents. But there are exceptions. If the foster family has 3 or more adopted children, then one can hope that monthly payments will be made to both the new mother and the new father.

Almost like native

The next point to pay attention to is that from the moment the child is placed in the foster family, the minor actually becomes equal with the children who are in the community cell. What does it mean?

Now the reward to foster parents will be given not only for custody or guardianship. The family will receive some benefits, as well as generally accepted benefits, which are laid by many children. After all, even adopted children are considered to be relatives when drafting documents.

The only thing - the childcare allowance will not be paid. Instead, citizens are given a monthly reward. Foster parents do not need to leave their jobs if they are employed. The money will be paid for the status of the foster family.

Also, families do not have generally accepted payments for pregnancy and childbirth, as well as for the birth of a child. But after adoption, parents can take care of more important and larger payments.

Maternity capital and remuneration

What exactly are we talking about? Benefits for the care of the child adoptive parents do not pay. Instead, the family, as already mentioned, is given separate monthly payments. Their amount and terms of payment are set at the regional level. And increasing the reward to foster parents depends on the health of the ward.

But the family from the moment of registration of all documents has the right to privileges and grants which give for presence of several children. Perhaps the largest is the so-called maternal capital. This payment in 2016 is 453 026 rubles. It is issued only once. Cash can be spent either directly on a child who has made it possible to obtain capital, or to improve housing conditions.

Many children

Now it is clear that the foster parents are entitled to rewards. The question in the other is what exactly is to be considered for these payments. Only in some cases, payments for the status of foster parents are considered. But this is not the only reward. It is already clear that the foster family will also be entitled to maternity capital. But only if, in total, 2 children are brought up in a social unit (including an adopted minor).

Also, adoption helps to get the status of a large family. Then the parents will receive all the benefits and benefits that are put in this or that case. To do this, the family must have 3 or more underage children. And it does not matter whether adopted or not.

For the reward, you can consider granting the possibility of obtaining land on a no-cost basis for the construction of a house. Or a free apartment as part of a program to improve living conditions. All those who have many children apply for these payments. But foster families should know that having a non-native child does not negate the possibility of participating in targeted programs for large families.

Decor

The amount of remuneration to foster parents is set at the regional level. But the rules of design are the same everywhere. What is required to receive a lump sum, as well as a monthly allowance for the adopted child?

First, find out where to go with the package of documents. It is recommended to visit multifunctional centers. There, all benefits are processed in the shortest time and without any problems.

Secondly, it is required to collect a certain package of documents. The foster family writes an application for a one-time allowance for adoption, as well as monthly payments for their acquired status. Further documents are attached:

• Parents' identity cards;
• Child's documents;
• Contract for adoption.

After that, citizens will be paid a monetary reward within a month. Foster parents, who have 2 or more children, are advised to look into the Pension Fund and place a matcapital there. To do this, we provide:

• Parents' passports;
• Birth certificates for all children;
• SNILS of minors;
• Documents on adoption;
• Application for the issuance of maternity capital.

Nothing more is needed. From now on it is clear that the reward to foster families is given. But not all and not always. Everything is purely individual. And this should be remembered. It is recommended that you know the exact information about allowances and payments for adoption in a particular region of residence.
