Nowadays, parenting requires a lot of effort from parents. This relates not only to the material, but also to the physical side of the issue. Some simply do not cope with this, then the state comes to the rescue, providing an opportunity to return money for school uniforms.
If we talk about large families, then the state provides several options for benefits for them. To issue them, you will need to come to one of the nearest offices, where they deal with issues of social protection of the entire population. Compensation for the acquisition of a uniform for schoolchildren is considered a federal benefit, its receipt has the right to adjust in regional authorities. Who can expect to receive these payments? By law, benefits are required for students whose families have more than one child.
They can receive education not only in schools, but also in lyceums, as well as gymnasiums and even vocational schools. Note that benefits are provided only if the child is not more than eighteen years old. Compensation can be received not only for the uniform, but also for the purchase of a tracksuit so that the child can do physical education.
Families with many children are also considered where one of the children is considered an adult, however, receives an education at a university and simply has not reached the age of 23. This is due to the fact that an ordinary student who enrolls in full-time education simply does not have the opportunity to provide and dress himself on his own.
In some of the regions, the procedure for granting these benefits is changing. They can be paid only with the assistance of the school administration itself or in social protection, while benefits are not provided for all families. For example, in the Moscow region there are certain income restrictions that apply to applicants. To receive payments, income should in no case exceed the subsistence level, and for each family member. The amount of state aid is also different. In some cases, benefits can be partially issued for stationery and other accessories, clothes. After all, buying them for large families is not so easy.
What documents do I need to collect for a refund?
If we talk about compensation for the form for large families, then it is issued free of charge, but you have to prepare a certain package of papers that you can collect in just a few days. In order to significantly reduce the time for their preparation, it is important to preliminarily clarify the list of documents. You can do this if you go to the website for social protection or in the territorial offices of this state body.
We have compiled a sample list of documents for returning school uniforms for first graders:
- References from all educational institutions where each child is trained.
- Extract from the so-called house book from the management company or HOA.
- It is also important to obtain documents that you are living with your child. However, these papers are not considered mandatory and will only be required if the child and you are registered in different apartments.
- Passports, marriage certificates of parents.
- Bank statement to transfer money to a savings account or to your card.
You will also need to obtain a certificate with which you can confirm the status of a large family, as well as various benefits that correspond to this. Just write a statement to the social welfare office. It won't be that difficult to get your money back.
With these documents, you just need to contact the MFC, as well as social protection or the school (places can change depending on the rules that will apply in your city). As you already understood, the list of all papers is not so long and it is quite simple to draw up it. All benefits are valid for one year only.
For this reason, you will have to deal with this paperwork from year to year, since these issues are settled in the state, because in one year not only the income of the family can increase, but the children themselves can reach adulthood. For this reason, this step acts as insurance against unauthorized expenses. It is much easier to apply for benefits in Moscow, as well as in St. Petersburg. But families with more than seven children can receive the Order of the so-called Parental Glory. And the purchase of a school uniform will be free.
If you first find out the entire list of documents, and then simply plan the day and start collecting the necessary certificates, then you can easily issue payments, it will take only one day and a trip to the Multifunctional Center. As a rule, there are multifunctional centers in every city. It remains only to happily wait for the money to be returned to the account from social protection. Families who have taken up orphans can also receive payments.
