In 2006, the Russian Federation adopted the program of demographic development of the country. Today, experts are confident that it has proven effective. According to statistics, the number of families in which three or more children are raised has increased significantly. To help parents in providing children with everything they need, the state gives them all kinds of support. In 2018, large families not only retained benefits, but also provided new ones, and the amount of benefits and other payments significantly increased. Let's see what material assistance is provided to large families.
General information
In accordance with a presidential decree of 1992, the structures of regional and local authorities independently determine the criteria for classifying families as large families. In most cases, support is provided to persons raising 3 or more children. Benefits and financial assistance to large, low-income families are maintained until the youngest child reaches adulthood. Some regions have a higher threshold. So, students from large families receive financial assistance until they reach 23 years of age. One condition for its provision is full-time training.
Types of benefits
It should be noted that financial assistance to large and poor families is not only the payment of money, but also a decrease in the amount of mandatory payments. Thus, persons raising three or more children are entitled to 30% discount on utility bills.
For children under the age of 6, free medicines are prescribed (according to a prescription from a pediatrician). In addition, the state support program provides for:
- Food subsidies in pre-schools, secondary schools, vocational education institutions.

Mortgage
An urgent issue in the society of modern Russia is the provision of housing. Not every family can afford to buy an apartment or build a house. In such cases, the state comes to the rescue. In 2018, the mortgage rate for large families was reduced to 6% per annum. The state intends to compensate the difference between the preferential interest and the average rate within five years after the appearance of the third or next child. If the mortgage has already been issued at an average rate, a large family has the right to refinance at a reduced rate. After the grace period, the bank will increase the rate.
A reduced percentage is provided for mortgage loans in the amount of not more than 3 million rubles, and for the Moscow and Leningrad regions - 8 million rubles.

Only families in which income per person does not reach 1.5 times the minimum subsistence level can take this opportunity. Of course, as funds are paid, the total amount of maternal capital will decrease.
Parents can spend the received funds on training, hiring a nurse (nanny) for a child under 3 years old.
The total size of the capital in 2018 was not indexed. As in 2017, it is equal to 453,026 rubles. You can get a certificate for capital if the family has not applied for it before.
