There are several payments made before and after the birth of a child in neighboring Belarus. The state takes good care of families who decide to have a child. Many parents are planning to make large joint purchases for this important period in their lives.

First money future mommy receives by going to the so-called maternity leave at 30 weeks of pregnancy. This payment is entirely dependent on the woman's salary and wages. Because planned sick leave usually lasts 126 days, then the total amount can be calculated by multiplying the average daily earnings for 6 months by these 126 days.

Only those women who prudently registered with the antenatal clinic at their place of residence before 12 weeks of pregnancy can count on the next large amount.

After the birth of the baby, the mother will receive 100% of the BPM (living wage budget). In August 2016, this amount is 175 rubles. 50 kopecks (1,755,0000) or $88.

The largest benefit associated with the birth of a child is a one-time benefit.

It currently amounts to 1,755 rubles (17,550,000) or $878 for the first child and 2,457 rubles (24,570,000) or $1,229 for the second and subsequent children.

After birth and until the child turns three years old, the mother is paid a monthly benefit in the amount of 35% of the average monthly salary (today it is 252.39 (2,523,900) Belarusian rubles) or $126 for the first-born and 40% of the average monthly salary (288.44 (2 884,400) Belarusian rubles) or $144 for the second, third and subsequent children.

How much do they pay for the birth of a child in 2017?

What will the benefit for the birth of a child be in 2017? It should be recalled that wages at the beginning of 2017 were increased to 780 rubles. Accordingly, financial assistance for the maintenance of a child under three years of age has also changed in size for the better.

Here are the amounts of these social payments:

At the birth of their first child, future parents can count on 262 rubles;
At the birth of the second and all subsequent ones, the amount will be about 300 rubles;
At the birth of a child with health problems (who have the status of a disabled person), 336 rubles will be paid.

If the family is counting on lump sum payment, then in 2017 it will be:

At the birth of the first child – 1800 rubles;
At the birth of the second and all subsequent ones - 2500 rubles.

It should be recalled that only those women who managed to register with the antenatal clinic before the twelfth week of pregnancy can apply for a one-time payment. If this happens later, you will not be able to receive this payment.

The assistance that is received monthly to families with disabled children and other categories of citizens provided for by law will amount to 126 rubles in 2017.

Monthly assistance to parents of disabled children provides financial assistance until the child reaches adulthood and amounts to 180 rubles per month.

If there are several children in a family and there is a child under three years old, then parents can qualify for monthly payments in the amount of 90 rubles.

Benefits for children under 3 years of age

In Belarus, from August 1, 2019, benefits for children under 3 years of age will increase. The increase in payments will be from 13.65 to 17.55 rubles, depending on the type of benefit. Thus, the benefit for the first child will be 376.11 rubles, for the second and subsequent children - 429.84 rubles.

For a disabled child under 3 years of age, payments will increase to 483.57 rubles per month.

The last time benefits for children under three years of age was increased was on February 1 of this year. Then payments increased by an amount from 33.42 to 42.97 rubles.

The growth of the benefit depends on how the average salary in the country changed over the previous quarter. If it falls or does not change, then the amount of the benefit remains at the same level, and if it grows, then the benefits are raised as well.

The average salary in the first quarter was 1,011 rubles, and in the second - 1,074.6 rubles.

Birth benefits

From November 1, 2019, benefits for the birth of children will increase in Belarus, which depend on the size of the subsistence level budget.

The size of the lump sum benefit is proportional to the growth of the BPM

in connection with the birth of the first child: 2,318.3 rubles,
and at the birth of the second and subsequent children - 3,245.62 rubles;
a one-time benefit for women registered with state health care organizations before 12 weeks of pregnancy will increase to 231.83 rubles

Amounts of benefits for some families raising children


type of benefit	benefit amount	amount, rubles
allowance to families for children aged 3 to 18 years during the period of raising a child under 3 years of age (monthly)	50% BPM
for children over 3 years old from individual categories families: for children, except for a disabled child	50% BPM
for children over 3 years old from certain categories of families: for a disabled child	70% BPM

per child under 18 years of age infected with HIV (monthly)	70% BPM

Family support

The government will review the current state support for families with children, previously Prime Minister Sergei Rumas. The head of government said that in the near future, the government's efforts will be concentrated on additional support for families with children - child benefits, housing, pension guarantees for mothers with many children, and increasing the availability of reproductive technologies, primarily IVF.

The authorities may also review the payment of benefits to families raising a disabled child. “The issue of continuing the payment of benefits for other children over 3 years of age after a disabled child reaches 18 years of age will be worked out as part of a comprehensive adjustment of the legislation on state benefits,” the Ministry of Labor reports.

Let us recall that in March of this year it was reported that changes had been prepared for families raising children. Among them are to raise child benefits, solve the problem of insurance coverage for mothers of four children, and allow the use of family capital after the child reaches 3 years of age.

Benefits may also be increased for some families with children. Now families with several children, one of whom is under 3 years old, are paid a monthly allowance that is half the subsistence level budget. And the size of these payments does not depend on the number of children.

Now they want to pay this benefit depending on the number of children. It is proposed to differentiate this benefit: three children - 50% of the BPM, four - 75%. Families with 5 children, one of whom is under 3 years old, are offered to increase the benefit amount to 125% of the BPM.

Another proposed change is to include in the total length of service, which is important for calculating pensions, maternity leave for mothers raising 4 children.

Today, the maximum length of periods of child care included in the length of service is 9 years. Regardless of the number of children. For those who have three children, maternity leave is included in their full length of service, and additional benefits are provided for mothers of five or more children.

Child benefit - a cash payment of an alimentary nature, assigned to non-working mothers (or persons replacing them) during the period of caring for children up to a certain age. In the Republic of Belarus it is paid until the child turns three years old.

If joyful events have occurred in your life, and your family has received the status of “raising children,” then you have every right to count on help from the state. Parents are entitled to the following child benefits to raise their offspring in Belarus:

Benefits for women who register with the antenatal clinic before 12 weeks of pregnancy. Its size is equal to the largest amount in the country as a whole (abbreviated as BPM), valid until the birth of the baby, and its payment is made one-time, as a rule, together with the next benefit.
One-time.

The amount of this benefit is ranked depending on how many heirs are in your family:

if you have your first child, the payment amount will be equivalent to ten BPM (its largest amount before the baby’s birthday);
if the second baby and subsequent children - you will be paid fourteen BPM

Allowance for child care under 3 years of age.

From 01/01/2013, the principle for calculating this basic monthly benefit has changed dramatically: today, the basis for calculating benefits is employees in the country for the previous quarter. The amount of the benefit, like the previous one, depends on the order in which your children are born:

35 percent of the average monthly salary is paid every month for raising the first child;
for the second and subsequent children - 40 percent of the average monthly salary;
for a disabled child - 45 percent of the average monthly salary.

Allowance for children over 3 years of age.

This benefit is provided only to certain groups of families, depending on which its amount is calculated:

for a disabled child under 18 years of age - 70 percent of the BPM;
for an HIV-infected child under the age of 18 years - 70 percent of the BPM;

State support is also due in the amount of half the BPM in cases where one of the parents is a soldier on compulsory military service, or when the parents are on disability of the first or second group.

Benefit for caring for a disabled child under 18 years of age. It is supposed to be paid every month in the amount of one BPM.
And, finally, a monthly allowance for children aged 3 to 18 years for families during the period of raising a child under the age of 3 years.

The payment of this benefit in Belarus has been included in the list since January 2015 and is an innovation. Its value is half of largest size BPM on average per capita, approved by the Ministry of Labor and Social Protection. At the same time, the number of minor children over three years old does not affect the amount paid.

It is important to remember that you must apply for government assistance no later than six months from the date the right to receive the listed subsidies arises.

Child benefit is a social payment made by the state to non-working mothers or other persons who replace them in accordance with current legislation (guardians, single fathers, etc.).

In Belarus, there are several types of child benefits, paid both once and over a certain period of time. The amounts, frequency and duration of payments depend on the specific situation.

Benefit up to 12 weeks

One-time benefit. The expectant mother must register with the antenatal clinic no later than 12 weeks of pregnancy. The amount of payment coincides with the subsistence level budget and is reviewed quarterly. The amount is paid after the birth along with the birth benefit.

Payments upon birth of a child

Payment in connection with the birth of a child is a one-time payment. Its size depends on the number of children in the family: upon the birth of the first child, 10 BPM are paid, and for each subsequent child, 14 BPM.

You should contact social security with a corresponding application before the child reaches 6 months of age, and submit:

passport;
birth certificate and certificate;
birth certificates for each of the older children (if available).

Depending on the situation, social security workers may request additional documents, for example, certificates of residence or family composition, an extract from the work record book, etc.

Child care allowance up to 3 years old

Payments are made monthly until the child reaches three years of age (until the end of maternity leave). The amount of the benefit is calculated as a legally established percentage of the average monthly salary in the Republic of Belarus:

35% - for the first-born;
40% – for the second and for each subsequent one;
45% – for a disabled child.

The monthly payment amount will be halved if the mother leaves work early at more than half the rate. When working less than half-time, the benefit will remain in full, provided that an employment contract has been concluded with the woman. If the same amount of work is formalized in a civil contract (contract), this is interpreted as an early return to work, so the amount of payments will be halved. The same applies to mothers who are entrepreneurs, private lawyers or notaries, or artisans.

Payments for children with HIV and disabled children

Payments are monthly, paid for each HIV-infected child or disabled person until he reaches adulthood and amount to 70% of the BPM.

Allowance for caring for a disabled child

The benefit is paid to parents or persons who replace them in accordance with current legislation. Payments are made until the disabled child reaches adulthood in an amount corresponding to 1 BPM.

Allowance for children from 3 to 18 years old if there is a child under 3 years old in the family

Relatively new look payments, which appeared in 2015. The amount is 0.5 BPM, the benefit is paid monthly to families with children under three years old, and aged 3-18 years - until youngest child will not reach the age of three.
