Each family has its own level of income. This leads to the fact that individual families may be in a little cramped conditions and need some support from the state.

There are many such families in the country. The government, in turn, makes a lot of efforts to help needy citizens. This may be monetary support or the provision of various kinds of benefits.

What is taken into account when calculating

Such a value as the subsistence minimum is subject to constant change due to inflationary processes in the national economy. With the increase in prices for basic products, the need for funds for life support increases among citizens.

The cost of living is considered as the total cost of obligatory payments and goods in the consumer basket. To simplify the calculation system, the total cost of living is calculated. And for each social group, its size separately.

So, in order to accurately understand the essence of the calculations, consider the following important factors:

1. Working citizens, children and pensioners are considered the main social groups of the population.
2. The consumer basket is the minimum set of goods and services. Moreover, everything is calculated in such a way that this is enough for a citizen to ensure normal life and health.
3. The average per capita income is the amount of money for each member of one family.

These are the main factors that are used in the calculation.

Now consider the purpose of the subsistence minimum, which is specified in Federal Law No. 134:

• on its basis, conclusions are drawn about the standard of living of citizens;
• it helps shape social programs;
• it is the living wage that is the minimum value for calculating pensions, scholarships and benefits;
• it forms budget expenditures for the next year.

But each region of the country has its own peculiarities. Therefore, the regional authorities are endowed with such powers and the right to adjust the amount of the subsistence minimum at their discretion. It helps assess living standards, draw up local budgets, and provide assistance to families.

Amount for a family of 4

The calculation will be made after citizens submit a special application to the department of social protection.

In order to correctly make all the calculations, the social worker must know the full composition of the family, as well as the income of each working adult in this family for the last three months.

Information is also needed regarding the property owned by this family.

The family may include:

• married citizens living with minor children;
• citizens living in a civil marriage, living with minor children;
• guardians living together and their wards;
• blood relatives living together.

As a basis for calculations, all incomes determined by law can be taken.

This may include all types of remuneration, including the average income that must be retained by the employee in cases of temporary disability, dismissal, or other situations specified in the Labor Code.

This list includes social benefits for citizens, pensions, as well as the following benefits:

• unemployment;
• pregnancy;
• childbirth;
• for children under 1.5 years old.
• compensation for the fulfillment of labor obligations
• severance pay.

This list should include alimony, disability payments due to injuries or occupational diseases.

If a citizen receives income from the rental of real estate, received an inheritance, income from entrepreneurship, creativity, or there is a bank account in his name, then such income should also be taken into account.

At the same time, there are some categories of income that cannot be taken into account in the calculations:

• income of adult children, if they live separately from their parents;
• parents' income if they were deprived of parental rights (even if they live together);
• income of children who are on state support;
• spouse's income if he is in military service or is studying at a military educational institution;
• spouse's income if he is serving a sentence in places of detention.

Formula

All calculations are based on the following formula:

Average per capita income (DA) = income of all seven members (D) / 3 (calculation period is 3 months) / Number of people (NC).

Each region has its own subsistence level. This figure is recalculated quarterly. In the third quarter of last year, it amounted to 10,328 rubles.

To calculate assistance, the cost of living is taken and multiplied by 1.5. This is necessary to determine the maximum amount of family income.

If the calculation result is less than the established minimum multiplied by 1.5, then the family can count on receiving assistance.

Calculation samples

Example 1

Let's make a calculation for a family of four, which includes two adults and two children. The income of the spouse is 60 thousand rubles. The wife's income is 40 thousand people.

It turns out that the family income is 100 thousand rubles.

We make calculations:
SD \u003d 100,000/3/4 \u003d 8,333 rubles.

We consider the limit size: 10328 * 1.5 = 15 492. It turns out that the calculated amount is lower than the limit size.

Example 2

Let's try to make calculations for a family that consists of two spouses, one minor child and a pensioner. Husband earns 60 thousand, wife 30 thousand. The pension is 20 thousand.

SD \u003d 110,000/3/4 \u003d 9,166 rubles

As we have already calculated, the maximum size is 15,492. The result of the calculations is also lower than this indicator, which means that the family can count on state support.

Example 3

Calculation for a family of four, which includes two spouses, one minor child and one adult child who has been a disabled person of the second group since childhood and lives with his parents.

The spouse earns 50,000, the wife 40,000, the allowance for disabled people from childhood of the second group is 10,068.53 rubles.

SD \u003d 100,068/3/4 \u003d 8,339 rubles.

This figure is also lower than 15,492 rubles. This family may also be eligible for benefits.

According to the results of the calculations, we found out that all three families can receive benefits.

Who can apply for low income status

Citizens receive the status of a low-income family after recognition of this by local governments. When making a decision, their income per family member is taken into account.

This status gives the right to receive benefits from the state. Features of assistance depend on the region in which the family lives.

The main condition for obtaining such a status is the calculation of the average per capita income. And on the basis of the resulting amount, a decision is made.

When assigning such a status to a family, it is important to remember that a family is a group of citizens who have a common way of life, that is, they live together. Usually these people are connected by family ties. But there are exceptions.

So, who can be part of the family:

1. Husbands and wives.
2. Parents and children. And guardians and wards too.
3. Stepsons and stepdaughters.
4. Grandfathers and grandmothers.
5. Stepfathers and stepmothers.

In cases where the family has a low income and at the same time it includes people with disabilities, then it has a special privilege for the extraordinary assignment of the status of the poor. The same applies to large or single-parent families.

Childless spouses can count on social type support or if one of the spouses has a child of his own and he is independently engaged in education.

However, couples in a civil marriage are not provided with social assistance. The same applies to those who are painted and live separately from each other.

Only those who are in a difficult financial situation can be attributed to low-income families. Moreover, they could not independently influence the circumstances that led to this situation.

But if family members can work, but do not work due to unwillingness or alcohol abuse, then they experience financial difficulties through their own fault. It turns out that they cannot qualify for state aid.

Determine the amount of the benefit

There are poor families in every country. In our 23 million poor citizens. Very often in families with three or more children, with one parent, pensioners or people with disabilities. Therefore, they all need additional support. They get it through grants.

To determine the amount of benefits, you need to understand that there are several types of them:

1. Social.
2. Tax.
3. For education.
4. Allowances for payment of housing and communal services.

Social:

1. In this case, discounts are provided for each of the children to pay for kindergarten. The calculation depends on the amount of payment. 20% discount for the first child, 50% discount for the second child, 70% discount for the third and subsequent children.
2. Payments are also made to students from such families. 850 rubles if he studies in vocational schools and 2358 if he is in a university. Values ​​are minimal and vary by region.
3. Families with many children receive benefits depending on the subsistence level in the region.

As for the tax benefit, it lies in the fact that such families do not need to pay personal income tax on social benefits.

The student receives an education allowance in the form of a state scholarship.

The allowance for payment of housing and communal services is paid for six months and depends on the cost of receipts and the size of the living space.

The living wage established by the state is a specifically defined amount, which is calculated from the components necessary for the life of a resident of the country. It is set individually depending on the region of residence and is aimed at buying food, necessary clothing, paying for utilities, without which the life of an average person is impossible.

Living wage in Moscow in 2018 from July 1, 2018: the need to determine the living wage

The standard of living can be used to characterize the standard of living in a region. This allows you to develop programs aimed at improving the standard of living.

Information on the cost of living helps in the formation of the city's budget and determining what costs will be required for social payments to the poor. Based on the living wage figure, additional social allowances are provided to the population. In addition, the living wage is an integral part of the formation of the regional minimum wage.

The subsistence minimum is clearly established for each subject of the federation. This amount is reviewed quarterly.

Living wage in Moscow in 2018 from July 1, 2018: calculation of the living wage

In order to determine the size of the subsistence minimum, a statistical collection of the price level in the city is carried out for the categories of goods that are necessary to maintain a healthy life, food, clothing, utilities, and the like. The needs of a working citizen and a pensioner are also taken into account. After analyzing all the components, specialists form one amount. This amount will differ from the subsistence level in other regions, as the level of prices and expenses is different.

When calculating, the consumer basket is of no small importance, as the set of products primarily necessary for human life is called. Its composition is reviewed with a frequency of at least 1 time in 5 years. And its composition is different for different subjects of the Russian Federation.

In addition, the amounts differ in demographic composition. For able-bodied citizens, pensioners and children, they are not the same.

The consumer set is compiled not only on the basis of the physiological characteristics of the human body and prices in a particular region, but also taking into account climatic and national characteristics.

Living wage in Moscow in 2018 from July 1, 2018: latest information

Information about the living wage set for the current quarter in Moscow can be found in official government sources, such as, for example, the website of the mayor of the city.

In June 2018, the government set these figures for the third quarter of 2018 at the following levels:

• per capita - 15786 rubles;
• for working citizens - 17,990 rubles;
• for pensioners - 11157 rubles;
• for children - 13787 rubles.

If a person, for reasons beyond his control, receives an income that is less than the established subsistence minimum, then he has the right to receive additional social benefits from the state.

What is the minimum wage from July 1, 2017 in Moscow? Has the “Moscow” minimum wage increased? What does the increase affect? Less than what salary is now impossible to establish? How to refuse the new minimum Moscow salary? Here are the new amounts and tell you how to work with them.

Quarterly increase to the living wage

The minimum wage (minimum wage) in Moscow takes on a new meaning at the end of each quarter. The fact is that the minimum wage in Moscow depends on the subsistence level of the able-bodied population. If the cost of living rises, then from the first day of the month following the month of increase, the minimum wage also increases. This is provided for by paragraphs 3.1.1 and 3.1.2 of Decree of the Government of Moscow dated 12/15/15 No. 858-PP "On the draft Moscow tripartite agreement for 2016-2018 between the Government of Moscow, Moscow associations of trade unions and Moscow associations of employers".

Risks for Moscow employers

If the Moscow salary for July, August or September 2017 is lower than the minimum wage, then the employer may be held administratively and criminally liable. A fine in the amount of 1,000 to 5,000 rubles can be imposed on an individual entrepreneur or director of an organization, and from 30,000 to 50,000 rubles on an organization. (part 1 of article 5.27 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation).

For a repeated violation, directors can be fined from 10,000 to 20,000 rubles. or be disqualified for a period of one to three years. Penalty for individual entrepreneurs for repeated violation: from 10,000 to 20,000 rubles, for a company - from 50,000 to 70,000 rubles. (part 4 of article 5.27 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation).

Director's responsibility

An employee whose salary was less than the minimum wage has the right to demand an additional payment for the entire period of work and compensation for the delay (Article 236 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation). For the payment of wages below the minimum wage for more than two months, the head of the organization is subject to criminal liability (parts 2 and 3 of article 145.1 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation).

How to refuse the minimum wage and pay less

Any employer has the right to refuse the application of the minimum wage in Moscow from July 1, 2017. To do this, it is required to draw up and send a reasoned refusal to the local branch of the Committee on Labor and Employment. The term is 30 calendar days from the date of publication of the tripartite agreement on the regional minimum wage (Article 133.1 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation).

In this case, the refusal must be motivated. This means that the employer needs to be informed of the reasons why the employer cannot pay his employees the regional "minimum wage" - 17,642 rubles. As such reasons, one can indicate, for example, “crisis”, “few orders”, “risk of mass dismissal of employees”, and so on. In Moscow, you need to send a refusal to the tripartite commission at the address: 121205, Moscow, st. New Arbat, 36/9. Here is an example of such a waiver:

However, please note that clause 8 of Article 133.1 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation obliges the employer to attach a set of documents to the refusal, among which are proposals on the timing of raising the minimum wage of employees to the amount stipulated by the agreement. That is, even a timely refusal does not mean that you will not have to pay the new minimum wage, established from July 1, 2017, at all. The employer simply has the right to delay its introduction.

salary commission

Article 133.1 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation gives the Moscow authorities the right to invite representatives of an employer who has refused to accept a new minimum wage from July 1, 2017, for consultations. That is, the rejection of the Moscow minimum wage threatens to clash with administrative resources.

Note that in 2017 the Federal Tax Service continues the practice of salary commissions. Moreover, the IFTS has the right to transfer to labor inspectorates information about employers who pay low wages (letter dated April 21, 2017 No. ED-4-15/7708).

The purpose of the salary commissions is to identify the "gray" salary and personal income tax debts. An employer may be invited to a salary commission:

• due to personal income tax debts;
• if personal income tax payments have decreased by 10 percent or more;
• if the salary is below the regional subsistence minimum, the minimum wage or the industry average.

The living wage in Moscow for the 4th quarter of 2017 (current) is established by Decree of the Government of Moscow dated March 13, 2018 No. 176-PP.

For the main socio-demographic groups of the population amounted, rubles:

• per capita 153
• for the able-bodied population 17560;
• for pensioners 10929;
• for children 13300.

Compared to the 3rd quarter of 2017, decreased, rub.:

• per capita -763 (-4.&6%);
• for able-bodied -893 (-5.0&%);
• for pensioners -491 (-4.4&%);
• for children -638 (-4.8%);

The cost of living for the 1st quarter of 2018 in Moscow is expected in the first half of June 2018.

The minimum wage in Moscow is set equal to

• 18742 from 10/01/2017
• 17642 from 07/01/2017
• 17561 from 10/01/2016

The subsistence minimum in 2017 for a child and a pensioner

The minimum cost of living is a defining value for each state. It includes a food basket and the smallest set of goods. In addition, the social part is also included in this size. It is equal to 10% of the total level and is a set of spiritual values ​​that are essential for an adequate life.

The government sets a certain level for the population every quarter. This is done by means of a special Decree.

If at the moment the living wage for a pensioner hardly exceeds 8 thousand rubles, then in 2017 this figure will definitely reach 9000. According to some forecasts, it will be equal to 9.2 thousand rubles, but in the same Nizhny Novgorod region this economic parameter will remain at that level as in the current year. For children, the amount is already 9.6 thousand rubles. and it is expected that in 2017 its size will increase slightly - up to a maximum of 10,000.

Living wage in 2017 in Moscow

The standard of living in the city is one of the main factors affecting the cost of living. Therefore, it is not surprising that in Moscow and the Moscow region it is higher than in other regions of Russia. This is due to higher prices for housing, transport and other benefits in Moscow and the Moscow region.

Now the minimum figure for able-bodied citizens is close to 19 thousand, for pensioners - to 12 thousand, for children - to 14.5 rubles.

The law establishes that the regional level in Moscow and the Moscow region for non-working citizens is 1000 less. Previously, for January 2017, they plan to raise the figures indicated for all categories and ages of citizens by 500-1000 at best.

The subsistence minimum in 2017 per child

A separate article in the calculation of the living minimum for a person is the indicator for children. Now for the calculation of child benefits, the figure is slightly less than 14 thousand. This figure varies by region. For example, in St. Petersburg and the Sverdlovsk region, the minimum figures are 10,000. (If you are having difficulty obtaining financial assistance in St. Petersburg or need more serious support, you can contact a lawyer for help).

The smallest sizes are in Tatarstan (a little over 8,000), the largest are in the Nenets Autonomous Okrug - more than 20 thousand rubles. Child allowance throughout Russia is set at 15.5 thousand rubles one-time and 3 thousand rubles monthly for the first child up to the age of 1.5 years.

The subsistence minimum for a pensioner 2017 in Moscow and the Moscow region

Another parameter in the table with minimum living standards is the living wage for non-working pensioners in Moscow in 2017. Its value for the capital is about 11 thousand rubles. If the pensioner works, then the option “living wage for an able-bodied citizen” is relevant for him, which in Moscow and the Moscow region exceeds 13 thousand. If we draw parallels with all of Russia, then this is one of the highest rates. Among the champions here are Chukotka and the Nenets Autonomous Okrug (about 15 thousand), and at the end of the list are Tatarstan and Mordovia - about 6 thousand rubles.

The average cost of living in Moscow in 2017

On a per capita basis, the relevant Law of Moscow establishes that in the capital and the Moscow region it is 15,000. If a person is recognized as able-bodied, then this financial parameter of the region increases to 17 thousand rubles. It is expected that in 2017 for a working person the minimum amount will be 18,000. According to the average calculation per person, the living wage is unlikely to exceed 16,000.

Decree of the Government of Moscow on the subsistence minimum in 2017

Since the minimum values ​​for human life are set quarterly, for 2017 they will be adopted only in December-January. So, while there are two resolutions for the capital under the numbers 297 and 551 - for the first and second quarters, respectively.

Per capita, according to calculations, the following decree was issued for the last quarter: 15300 - the average, 17500 - for the working population, 10800 - for pensioners and 13200 - for children.

According to Decree of the Government of Moscow No. 952-PP dated December 05, 2017 for the III quarter of 2017, the subsistence minimum is:

• per capita - 16160 rubles per month;
• for the able-bodied population - 18453 rubles per month;
• for pensioners - 11420 rubles per month;
• for children - 13938 rubles per month.

Table of subsistence minimum values ​​by quarters

Table note: quarterly values ​​for 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017 are given.

About the living wage in the city of Moscow

On a quarterly basis, statistical agencies submit reports to federal and regional governments on consumer consumption and prices for the primary needs of the population of the Russian Federation. This information is called the "living wage" (PM).

The indicator is calculated not for the entire population, but with a breakdown:

The composition of the PM includes a consumer basket and a mandatory payment of personal income tax. The tax is included in the PM only for a working person. For other categories, the value of the PM is equal to the cost of the consumer basket.

Consumer basket - a set of essential goods, without which a person will not be able to maintain the proper level of activity and health, as well as remain socially active.

At the country level, the value of the PM is set by the Government of the Russian Federation. In Moscow - the City Government. The value of PM in the capital is set in accordance with:

• Federal Law of October 24, 1997 No. 134-FZ "On PM in the Russian Federation";
• Decree of the Federal Government of January 29, 2013 No. 56 “On approval of the rules for calculating the amount of PM in the Russian Federation”;
• The city law of May 15, 2002 "On PM" N 23.

Moscow occupies a leading position in all socio-economic ratings. If we talk about average salaries, then for 2017, according to the Mosstat, the level is 67 thousand rubles, while the salary fork is from 22 thousand rubles. up to an average maximum of 200 tr. If we remove the "tops" and narrow specializations, then there remains a fork of 22 - 45 tr. This is a good indicator for Russia, even taking into account the increased level of PM in the city. But, if you do not have your own housing, then it is difficult to survive in the capital. Renting a small-sized 1-room apartment on the outskirts will cost 25-30 tr. Otherwise, the capital is a very attractive, wealthy region. The power and offices of the largest Russian and foreign companies are concentrated here.
