The paradox was revealed when, at the beginning of the year, women with young children began to turn to social services to resume payments for the current year.
By law, in order to receive child support, it is necessary to prove that the income in the family is below the established level. This year it has been raised to two living wages for each family member, and not one and a half, as it was a year earlier. But now, when calculating, the family income includes not only the parents' salaries, but also, in fact, the benefits themselves, which the parents of young children received a year earlier.
Parents of young children all over the country receive massive refusals. Need to understand, dispensing with benefits this year, will they receive it again next year?
And despite the absurdity of the situation, both the Pension Fund and the deputy corps assure that most families will receive benefits. It is thanks to the fact, in the opinion of officials and deputies, that the rules raised the bar from one and a half to two living wages. And they don't see anything strange in the fact that it is necessary to confirm low income annually. Suddenly, in their opinion, someone in the family was raised and incomes increased.
From the point of view of the law, there are no violations, said State Duma deputy Oksana Pushkina. But she said that she had already applied to the relevant ministry to clarify the situation.
Lawyer Olga Prokhorova advised to ask for an official answer on paper if the grant is denied. And then only consult a lawyer and go to court.
Due to the massive nature of the phenomenon, the courts are expected to have a lot of work. Provided that mothers of young children find time for litigation. And will they win, due to the ambiguity of the situation itself?
