The calculation of the payment due for maternity leave can be done independently. It is enough to know the indicators of the income of a citizen.

We will tell you how maternity pay is correctly calculated, what else needs to be taken into account in the calculation, and we will also give examples of calculating maternity pay in different situations in 2018.

Who is entitled to maternity leave, and what maternity benefits are provided in 2018?

Decree cash payments are provided by the mother-to-be's employer while she is on parental leave.

The period of maternity leave usually lasts both before the birth and after the birth of the baby.

You may be eligible for benefits almost all women.

State assistance to expectant mothers - or Russian women who will already give birth to a baby in 2018:

Notice, payments will be indexed in February 2018, so in January the amount of benefits is slightly lower.

When a child reaches the age of 3, parents can also count on financial assistance - that's just from the regional budget. Therefore, you should find out about benefits and due payments in the social security of your district / city.

What benefits for pregnancy and childbirth are provided in 2018, and what has changed - new calculations of maternity benefits-2018

In November 2017, the President of Russia considered important issues of social policy related to the interests of children. He promised to introduce several changes from the beginning of 2018.

Here are the innovations awaiting the Russians:

1. They will pay monthly benefits to low-income citizens who have given birth to their first child. Low-income families can count on social benefits every month until the child turns 1.5 years old. The amount of the allowance will be paid in the amount of the subsistence minimum in force in a particular region. For example, a family living in St. Petersburg will receive an allowance of 403.20 rubles, and in Moscow - 14,252 rubles.

2. It was decided to extend the mother capital program . You can become a member until 2021.

3. Expand the possibilities of using mother capital - now it will be possible to receive a payment every month for the maintenance, care of children. Only needy families can receive it.

4. The state subsidizes the mortgage lending rate for large families - or those who plan to have a second or third baby . Families participating in a special mortgage lending program will be able to get housing and plan to have a baby by a certain date. Moreover, the payment of more than 6% of the mortgage rate will be assumed by the state.

5. 50 billion rubles will be allocated from the federal budget for the reconstruction of children's medical institutions.

6. We must solve the problem with the lack of places in the nursery groups of kindergartens.

The above actions on the part of the state will provide financial support to the poor and citizens with many children, as well as support families who postpone the birth of children until better times.

The changes also affected maternity benefits for previously officially employed Russian women:

The Ministry of Labor has prepared a bill, according to which the following innovations are expected in 2018:

7. Working citizens will be able to receive monthly benefits during maternity leave in the amount of 3.5 thousand more. The maximum amount of maternity leave in 2018 will be 375 rubles. An employee’s official earnings must be at least 755 thousand for 2017 in order to receive benefits increased by this amount.

8. The amount of sick leave will also be increased. The payment will be approximately the same amount as the allowance during the decree.

If we consider the calculation procedure, then here are the news:

9. The billing period changes. The allowance will be calculated taking into account the amounts of insurance premiums for 2017 and 2016. The marginal base is 755 and 718 thousand rubles, respectively. So, the maximum amount of income will be 1 million 473 thousand rubles, from which you can calculate the daily earnings (2017.81 rubles) and the amount of the maternity allowance.

10. The amount of the benefit determined by the minimum wage is being changed. From the beginning of 2018, the minimum wage will be equal to 9489 rubles. Usually, this is how the payment is accrued if the employee works for less than six months at the enterprise or in the company.

You can use our cheat sheet when calculating maternity payments in 2018:

General rules and example of calculation of maternity benefit 2018

The calculation rules have not changed much in 2018. The formula remains the same, only some indicators have changed.

1. Determine the average daily earnings of an employee for 2016-2017

The formula for calculating is:

It needs:

1. Substitute the income of a citizen for the previous 2 years.
2. Calculate the number of days to be included in the calculation. To do this, it is necessary to subtract from 731 days (366 days for 2016, 365 days for 2017) those that will be excluded.
3. Divide the amount of income by the received number of days of the billing period.

So you get the average daily earnings of an employee.

In the case when the average daily earnings are more than the amount established by law - 2017.81 rubles - then the calculation does not use the calculated earnings, but the maximum.

2. Calculate the amount of the benefit

The formula for calculating maternity benefits in 2018:

To determine the amount of the payment, the average daily earnings received, which we calculated in the previous stage, should be multiplied with the number of days of the decree.

Here's an example:

Citizen Sidorova went on maternity leave from March 1, 2018. Having worked in the Romashka company, in 2016 she received a total income of 144 thousand rubles, and in 2017 - 180 thousand rubles. In 2017, she was on sick leave for 14 days.

The birth was normal, so Sidorova is entitled to a vacation of 140 days.

Let's determine what the maternity benefit will be for Sidorova:

1. We count the number of days that will be taken into account in the calculation: 731 - 14 = 717 days.
2. We calculate the actual income of a citizen: 144,000 + 180,000 = 324,000 rubles.
3. We determine the size of the average daily earnings: 324,000 rubles. / 717 days = 451.88 rubles.
4. We calculate the amount of the allowance: 451.88 rubles. x 140 days = 63,263.20 rubles

Recall: this amount is not taxable, so Sidorova will receive a maternity allowance in the amount of 63,263.20 rubles.

There are also special maternity calculators online. They help to calculate the amount of the allowance due, only you must know all the data and indicators related to the calculation.

They operate simply - you enter information, then the service calculates and shows you the amount of the maternity benefit.

Calculator services can be found in a search engine, or on official media sites, the specifics of which are accounting, jurisprudence, etc.

Calculation of maternity leave in 2018, taking into account the minimum wage - examples of calculating maternity benefits

This indicator can be taken into account in several cases.

1. In the billing period, the income of a citizen is zero, or her average monthly income is less than the minimum wage

In this case, the calculation of the average daily earnings is calculated based on the minimum wage.

Example of calculation taking into account the minimum wage in 2018:

In May 2018, citizen Ivanova goes on maternity leave. Her actual earnings amounted to 220 thousand rubles for 2 years.

If you calculate the average monthly earnings, then it will be equal to: 220,000 rubles. / 24 months = 9,166.66 rubles. This amount is less than the subsistence minimum - 9,489 rubles, in force in Russia in 2018, so we will take into account the minimum wage in the calculation.

So, we first calculate the average daily earnings with the minimum wage, it will be equal to 311.54 rubles.

And then you can multiply the amount received with the number of days on vacation, and get the amount of benefits.

2. The employee worked for the company for less than six months

In this case, the calculation is made taking into account the minimum wage.

But notice that the amount of the benefit for a full calendar month - that is, in which there are 31 days - cannot be higher than the minimum wage.

For 2018, this is 9,489 rubles.

With daily earnings of 311.54 rubles. the amount of the benefit will exceed the minimum wage in months with 31 days.

That is, in January, March, May, July, August, October and December, the allowance is 9657.74 rubles. (311.54 days × 31 days). So, for these months you need to pay 9489 rubles.

A formalized employment relationship ensures that in the event of the birth of a child, the employee is entitled to a number of benefits. These are sick leave payments for pregnancy and childbirth, an allowance for early registration in a antenatal clinic, a lump sum payment in connection with the birth of a child, as well as a subsequent monthly allowance for caring for a child up to one and a half years. While maintaining the general principle, the calculation of maternity payments due to changes in amounts is updated annually. Changes in this matter are expected in 2018.

How to calculate maternity benefits

The sick leave for pregnancy and childbirth is issued at the 30th week of pregnancy. Initially, it was issued for 140 days, but if the birth goes through with complications, then the woman is entitled to an additional 16 days. If twins are planned, then the total duration of the sick leave will be 194 days.

To determine the amount due to the employee, the number of sick days must be multiplied by her average daily earnings, which is determined by the salary of the previous two calendar years. If during this period there was a change of work, then the current employer must take data on payments for previous places of employment from the certificate of average earnings, which is issued to employees upon dismissal. The form of this certificate was approved by order of the Ministry of Labor of Russia dated April 30, 2013 No. 182n.

The general procedure for calculating maternity leave in 2018 does not change. However, the amount of the maternity benefit has a certain minimum and maximum that must be taken into account.

The maximum amount of maternity payments is calculated based on the maximum value of the base for calculating insurance premiums in the FSS.

And this amount, in turn, increases every year.

In 2015, this figure was equal to 670,000 rubles, in 2016 - 718,000 rubles, in 2017 - 755,000 rubles. Thus, the calculation of maternity leave in 2018 in its maximum amount for the standard 140 days of sick leave will be 282,493.40 rubles based on the average daily earnings in 2017.81 rubles (718,000 + 755,000) / 730).

In 2017, sick leave payment for the same period could not exceed 266,191.78 rubles, and in 2016 - 248,164.38 rubles. You can find out more about what is the maximum calculation for maternity leave in 2017.

Calculation of maternity leave in 2018, example 1

An employee of Romashka LLC Petrova A.N. provided the employer with a sick leave for pregnancy and childbirth, opened on January 10, 2018 for a period of 140 calendar days. In 2017, Petrova's salary was 734,680 rubles, in 2016 - 723,500 rubles.

(718,000 + 734,680) / 730 x 140 = 278,596.16 rubles.

If the number of sick days changes, then the amount of maternity payments must be calculated accordingly. The maximum amount of benefits for pregnancy and childbirth in the event of the birth of twins in 2018 will be 391,455.14 rubles, in case of complicated childbirth - 314,778.36 rubles.

If we talk about the minimum amount of benefits for pregnancy and childbirth, then it is determined based on the current minimum wage.

From 2018, this figure will be significantly increased, from the current 7,800 to 9,489 rubles. The minimum sick leave payment for pregnancy and childbirth based on this indicator in 2018 will be 43,675.80 (with an average daily minimum wage of 311.97 rubles (9489 x 24) / 730). In 2017 (since July 1, when the minimum wage was set at 7,800 rubles), this figure was 35,901.60 rubles. Read more about the minimum amount of maternity leave.

The minimum value in calculating the amount of maternity leave was introduced for situations where the average salary of an employee for some reason over the previous two years turned out to be less than the minimum wage, for example, if she just started working. In any case, she can count on the minimum sick leave pay, and the employer, in turn, will be obliged to pay it to her.

Benefit in connection with early registration for pregnancy

A one-time allowance for registration in the early stages of pregnancy, and to be more precise - up to 12 weeks, does not have a maximum and minimum, and the calculation itself as such. This is always a statutory fixed amount, which traditionally increases from 1 February. In 2018, it will increase to 632.76 rubles. In the period from February 1, 2017 to the end of January 2018, the allowance for early terms is equal to 613.14 rubles.

Birth allowance

Another fixed amount is a one-time allowance for the birth of a child.

In 2018, also from February 1, it will amount to 16,873.54 rubles. Up to this point and throughout almost the entire 2017, this amount was 16,350.33 rubles.

Maximum payment of maternity leave for child care up to 1.5 years

And finally, the last allowance is a monthly payment for caring for a child up to 1.5 years old. Employers pay this benefit if, at the end of the sick leave according to the BIR, the employee does not plan to start work and writes an application for parental leave. How to correctly calculate maternity leave in this case? Their amount is calculated as 40% of the average earnings of an employee.

How to calculate maternity leave, example 2

At the end of the sick leave for pregnancy and childbirth, Petrov A.N. wrote an application for granting her leave to care for a child up to 1.5 years.

Based on the above salary level for 2016-2917, the amount of the monthly allowance will be:

(718,000 + 734,680) / 730 x 30.4 x 40% = 24,198.07 rubles

The allowance for caring for a child up to 1.5 years is also limited to the upper and lower limits. The maximum calculation of maternity leave in 2018 for child care, as can be seen from the example, is again determined by the size of the base for calculating insurance premiums and, based on it, cannot exceed 24,536.57 rubles in 2018.

The minimum amount of the allowance is determined taking into account the number of children born in the family. For the first child, from February 1, 2018, a minimum allowance of 3,163.79 rubles will be established, for the second and subsequent children - 6,327.57 rubles. In 2017, these figures were 3,065.69 and 6,131.37 rubles, respectively.

Benefit payment procedure

Recall that in the question of how to calculate maternity payments, it is important to meet deadlines. The employer is obliged to make all calculations within 10 days from the date of receipt of the necessary documents from the employee. This applies to all four of the above benefits.

But the period for applying for benefits, established for the employee herself, is different - 6 months from the moment of the occurrence of one or another event. When calculating the sick leave payment according to the BIR, this period is counted from the last day of the period of this sick leave. At the end of the six-month period, the employer is no longer required to make such payments.

The basis for the calculation of benefits are certain papers that the employee must provide to the employer for their subsequent transfer to the FSS. The list is quite standard: these are applications for the calculation and receipt of each allowance, sick leave, birth certificate, as well as certificates from the place of work of the father of the born child stating that the lump-sum allowance in connection with the birth was not assigned and paid to him by his employer, as well as that he was not granted parental leave of up to 1.5 years.

The maximum and minimum maternity payments in 2019 have changed. Find out what benefits are required when issuing a decree, taking into account the procedure and changes in legislation.

Expectant mothers who draw up a decree in 2019 are entitled to apply for financial assistance from the state and the employer. The types and amounts of compensation you can receive depend on a number of factors. Let's talk about them in detail.

Maternity leave in 2019 new payment law

What is maternity leave? This is maternity leave (lasting from 140 to 194 days, depending on the characteristics of pregnancy and childbirth) and subsequent leave to care for a child up to 1.5 or 3 years. According to the law, in the case of registration of such holidays, the following maternity payments are provided for in 2019:

1. On pregnancy and childbirth;
2. At the birth of a baby;
3. For registration in the early stages of pregnancy (up to 12 weeks);
4. Caring for a child up to 1.5 years and up to 3 years;
5. Maternal capital.

According to the new law, maternity leave is indexed in 2019 from February 1. The indexation coefficient was 1.043. (Resolution No. 32 dated 24.01.19). Employers must recalculate four benefits: birth allowance, early registration allowance, and minimum allowances for caring for children under 18 months.

maternity leave benefits in 2019

Maternity allowance in 2019

The following categories of women can claim compensation for pregnancy and childbirth in 2019:

• working women for whom employers pay insurance premiums to the FSS;
• dismissed women during the liquidation of the employer organization;
• students and pupils studying on a full-time basis;
• female contract servicemen;
• law enforcement officers;
• female entrepreneurs who have made voluntary contributions to the Social Insurance Fund for at least 6 months;
• women who adopted children.

The main document for calculating maternity benefits 2019 is a sick leave. The bulletin is issued by the medical institution in which the expectant mother is registered. At the same time, the length of sick leave for all women in labor is different. The number of days of disability depends on the characteristics of labor activity and the number of expected children (see table 2).

What determines the amount of maternity benefit in 2019

Maternity pay is also provided to women who have adopted children:

• 70 days - when adopting one baby;
• 110 days - when adopting two or more children.

Until now, it was not clear whether to take days of service that were not included in full months when working for different employers. The FSS has decided on the procedure for calculating the length of service for sick leave and maternity benefits.

Maternity in 2019 is calculated differently compared to last year. Since to calculate the average earnings, you need to take the last two years, that is, 2017-2018. In these years, the maximum average daily earnings are:

2150.68 \u003d 755,000 rubles. + 815 000 rub. : 730 days

At the birth of a third baby in 2019, parents have the right to receive additional payments under the program "On measures to implement the demographic policy of the Russian Federation" (approved by Decree of the President of the Russian Federation of October 18, 2017 No. 487).

If in 2013-2017 only regions with a birth rate below the national average - 1.762 for 2016 participated in the program, in 2018 the program included regions with a coefficient of 2. In total, the list of 60 regions of the Russian Federation instead of the previous 50. For example, payments are due in the Kaluga and Kemerovo regions, the Republic of Mari El, etc. (Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of November 18, 2017 No. 2565-r).

The regional authorities themselves set the amount of payments for a third child under three years old, to find out the amount, contact the territorial department of social protection. But the family must meet the criteria:

• the third child was born after December 31, 2012;
• parents and child are registered in the constituent entity of the Russian Federation participating in the program;
• the total family income must be below the subsistence level of the subject, etc.

Allowance for the birth of the first and second child in 2019. From January 1, 2018, Russian families at the birth of a child are paid a new monthly allowance in the amount of the subsistence minimum for children established in the region.

Support for families is provided for by the law "On monthly payments to families with children" (dated December 28, 2017 No. 418-FZ). The payment is not, in fact, a benefit, and does not cancel or replace federal child support payments.
Payout amounts: table by region

The allowance for the first (second) child can be received by families in which the average per capita income does not exceed 1.5 living wages of the able-bodied population, established in the constituent entity of the Russian Federation for the 2nd quarter of the previous year. The average payment amount in 2019 will be 10,836 rubles.

Maternity payments 2019: how to apply

The standard period for which a woman can go on maternity leave is 30 weeks with a normal singleton pregnancy. But in some cases:

• from the 28th week - with multiple;
• from the 27th week - when living and working in areas contaminated with radiation (due to accidents at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant and the Mayak production association, as well as discharges of radioactive waste into the Techa River).

Length of leave before and after childbirth

The decree is granted on the basis of:

• statements in any form;
• sick leave issued and issued in the manner prescribed by the order of the Ministry of Health and Social Development dated June 29, 2011 No. 624n.

An application can be made in any form addressed to the head. It must indicate the requested period according to the disability certificate.

If the expectant mother has changed her place of work and one of the periods falls on the previous place of work, a certificate of earnings in the form 182n (approved by order of the Ministry of Labor dated 04.30.13 No. 182n) is required to process payments.

There may be a situation where it is not possible to provide a certificate. In this case, the employer calculates the allowance based on the available information for the time of work (part 2.1 of article 15 of the Federal Law of December 29, 2006 No. 255-FZ).

"UNP" studied judicial practice and the experience of colleagues about what employees are capable of for their own benefit. The story was shared by Daria Tyurina, chief accountant of ENStil JSC, St. Petersburg.

Two years ago, a new girl got a job in accounting. According to the work book, the experience was only two years in some LLC. But in the certificate of earnings from a previous job, a decent amount was listed - it came to a salary three times less.

Literally a month later, the newcomer announced that she was pregnant. The company, as expected, calculated benefits. The employee received the money. A month later, the company filed documents for reimbursement, but the FSS withdrew expenses for children. It turned out that the certificate of earnings from the previous place of work is fake. As it turned out, such a company did not exist and no one paid dues.

The company agreed with the FSS and removed benefits from reporting. The director called the employee and demanded an explanation. She confessed that she forged papers to get more. She returned the money voluntarily, so the case did not go to court.

Council "UNP"

Check the certificate for authenticity through the FIU. To do this, send an application to the fund in the form from the order of the Ministry of Health and Social Development of Russia dated January 24, 2011 No. 21n. The Foundation will respond within 10 business days. The benefit must be assigned earlier - within 10 calendar days.

It is safer to check documents as soon as an employee is employed. Then there will be no risk of paying too much. But even if the company overpays due to a fake, it is possible to withhold money from an employee without a trial (part 4 of article 15 of the Federal Law of December 29, 2006 No. 255-FZ).

On the basis of an application and a certificate of incapacity for work, an order is issued (form T-6, approved by the Decree of the State Statistics Committee of 01/05/2004 No. 1).

If all the necessary documents are available, the employer assigns an allowance within 10 days and pays it along with the next salary. You must apply for benefits no later than 6 months after the end of the vacation. If due to circumstances it is impossible to apply within this period, then it is permissible to apply later to the Social Insurance Fund.

Many medical institutions have already switched to electronic document management. This means that paper sick leave is gradually changing to virtual sheets. Now only residents of the cities where the pilot project is taking place can issue an electronic document. The service will soon be available in more cities.

To draw up a decree in 2019, as before, they use the form approved by order of the Ministry of Health and Social Development dated June 29, 2011 No. 624n. It is worth carefully checking the sheet as it is filled out by the health worker. If with violations, the FSS may refuse to reimburse the costs of paying benefits. If errors are identified, it is necessary to send an employee for a duplicate.

Council "UNP"

Prepare a handy memo for employees How to eliminate sick leave errors so that you don’t argue with the benefit reimbursement fund in the future.

Features of filling out a sick leave for maternity

The decision to have a child is one of the most responsible and important in the life of every person and in every single family. Especially when it comes to two or more children. Today we are witnessing a not quite stable situation with the Russian economy.

This factor makes Russians think twice before taking any steps towards family expansion. We all know that the appearance of a long-awaited baby with a father and mother is not only wonderful moments and positive emotions.

In the current conditions of life, children represent a huge responsibility, which, of course, falls on the shoulders of parents. And it is not even necessary to provide the baby with all the best and most expensive.

But every baby needs the necessary things, such as a crib, stroller, clothes and hygiene products. The prices for diapers and formulas evoke a slight sense of anxiety, and the price tags for children's clothes are completely shocking.

The situation is even more heated due to the fact that the young mother is forced to leave the work process for a while, she will no longer be able to receive her usual income until she returns to full employment. Of course, it also happens that the expectant mother consciously or due to circumstances does not work, is a housewife.

Suppose the family decided to entrust the issue of providing for the family to the spouse. Both working and non-working women are interested in the issue of social benefits due to them in connection with the appearance of a baby. Let's find out how much maternity benefits young mothers can expect in 2018.

Who can receive maternity benefit

Only women receive this type of subsidy. Below we list the main categories of expectant mothers who are eligible for maternity benefits. A complete list of categories can be found in the Federal Law "On State Benefits to Citizens with Children".

• having a job;
• private entrepreneurs;
• unemployed;
• female students studying full-time;
• military personnel serving under the contract;
• mothers who adopted a child.

For those planning to have a baby in 2018, it is extremely important to understand the differences between payments for working mothers and for mothers who do not work. Since the maternity benefit is, in essence, a payment by the employer made in relation to an employee who has gone on forced leave.

The payment is made in a lump sum. In other words, these are not monthly, you can count on receiving money only once.

For non-working mothers, the amount of the maternity allowance is a social payment. The amount of this benefit is calculated based on the amount of the minimum salary.

It is worth noting that local social protection authorities play a rather significant role in the calculation of maternity benefits, since the calculation of benefits largely depends on this particular authority, since this is within its competence.

Unemployed mothers should understand that they can only count on maternity benefits if they are registered with the local employment service. Women who do not work and are not officially looking for work cannot apply for such assistance from the state.

Where to apply for benefits

To apply for maternity benefits, non-working mothers must apply to the social protection authority. Citizens of the Russian Federation who have adopted a child apply for a subsidy from the state, as well as to the social security authorities.

Employed Russian women, as well as expectant mothers serving in the army under a contract for registration of "maternity leave" should contact the personnel department at the place of work and service, respectively.

Students, in order to obtain assistance for pregnancy and childbirth, need to contact the dean's office of the educational institution.

Individual entrepreneurs who are preparing to become mothers must apply to the social security authorities to apply for maternity benefits. At the same time, the amount of the payment will be directly dependent on the amount of social contributions made by a single mother - a private entrepreneur.

The main question is the amount of benefits for young mothers

It is already clear that the amount of benefits varies depending on the category of mother. Let's finally find out how much of the notorious allowance women with one status or another can claim.

For employed women, the amount of the payment will be 100% of the salary for the last two years of work. Citizens dismissed in connection with the liquidation of the enterprise will be paid by local bodies of social protection of the population.

If a woman has combined two jobs for at least two years, she is provided for "maternity" payments from both employers. Based on the minimum wage of 7,800 rubles, you can calculate the minimum and maximum payment for pregnancy and childbirth in 2018.

Lump sum minimum - the minimum amount of the benefit may also differ, depending on the labor activity and the maternity leave associated with it:

• 34,520 rubles, 55 kopecks for normal childbirth without complications and a decree lasting 140 days;
• 38,465 rubles, 75 kopecks for childbirth complicated by some problems and maternity leave lasting 156 days;
• 47,832 rubles, 62 kopecks for multiple pregnancy and a decree that will last 194 days.

The maximum allowance - the "ceiling" of payments for pregnancy and childbirth also depends on labor activity and the number of babies born:

• 266,191 rubles, 80 kopecks for childbirth without complications;
• 296,207 rubles, 93 kopecks for difficult childbirth;
• 368,361 rubles, 15 kopecks for multiple pregnancy.

For mothers with less than six months of work experience, the amount of the maternity benefit is tied to the minimum wage.

Non-working mothers can count on a benefit that includes the amount of all due social benefits. In 2018, unemployed mothers will be able to receive no more than 613 rubles 14 kopecks.

Students should understand that in their case, the amount of payments will be made in accordance with the size of the scholarship. If in 2017 the minimum scholarship is 1,340 rubles, then already in the academic year 2017-2018 they promise to index the scholarships by 5.9%, and a year later the amount of the scholarship is indexed by another 4.8%.
