At present, for citizens of the Russian Federation, the question of what documents are needed to receive SNILS for a child has become urgent. And whether it is necessary to receive it at all. In this article, we will consider what it is, to whom and why it is necessary, what documents are needed for a child to receive SNILS, and also what advantages it gives.
Legislative innovations
In connection with recent changes to the current legislation of the country, there is a need to register each child and adolescent in the system of national pension insurance. Since the beginning of 2012, residents of the Russian Federation can draw up an individual universal card in electronic format, which is designed to receive various state or municipal services by its owner, as well as simplifying participation in various social and medical insurance programs.
Why is SNILS needed?
Now many documents can be replaced by one card. Among them: student card, pension certificate, travel document, bank card for making various payments. Since this universal card replaces the medical insurance policy, it has now become necessary for every citizen of the country to have SNILS with him, including when receiving treatment services in medical institutions. In fact, this “green card” serves as a tool to reduce the time it takes to serve a citizen by various state social structures.
Does SNILs need a child?
Each person needs an insurance number and an individual personal account so that he and authorized state structures can receive any information about his work experience, transfers to the pension fund throughout all his working years, as they will subsequently affect the size of the labor pension or may be necessary at its recalculation. SNILS is necessary not only for pension accruals, but also for receiving other public services, and therefore children and adolescents who are citizens of Russia and foreign citizens living in the country on a permanent basis must also have it. What are the benefits of this? For example, children under three years of age (sometimes up to six) who have SNILS are entitled to receive some preferential medicines, as well as to benefits for treatment in health facilities. How to get SNILS per child? What documents are necessary to provide for this? How long does it take to process it? Let's get it right.
What documents are needed for a child to receive SNILS?
In fact, everything is not as complicated as it might seem. It is not necessary for the child to transfer documents for receiving SNILS for a long time, since only the passport of the parent (that submits the application) and
the birth certificate of the applicant's child are needed. It will also be necessary to fill out a special form (form ADB-1), which should be provided to the applicant by the Pension Fund. The application form ADB-1 after filling must be certified by the applicant’s own signature.
What data does SNILS contain?
A new type of pension certificate must contain the following information: personal data - name, patronymic and surname of the owner, his date of birth, gender, place and date of registration, data on when information about him was entered into the unified system of mandatory pension insurance.
It will not be superfluous to note that SNILS should also be issued for children who are citizens of the Russian Federation but live abroad. And also for children - citizens of other countries, temporarily or permanently living in the territory of the Russian Federation.
How and where to issue?
What documents are needed to receive SNILS for a child, we have sorted. Now the question is where to go. Everything here is also simple. In any branch of the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation are obliged to help with registration. One of his parents has the right to submit documents for receiving SNILS to a child under 14 years old. In this case, the presence of the applicant himself (i.e. the child) is not required. If SNILS is needed for a teenager who is already 14, he can arrange it on his own. But on one condition - if he already has a passport of a citizen of Russia (according to the law, at this age a person can already apply for it). In some regions of the Russian Federation, a centralized process of registration of SNILS for children has been organized , which is very convenient for parents. Since the only thing that is required of them is to bring the documents necessary for the SNILS to the child, to school or kindergarten. This design option will be acceptable for parents whose work schedule does not allow to allocate time for visiting the branch of the Pension Fund.
What happens after submitting documents
After all the documents for issuing SNILS have been submitted to the child, the ADB-1 form has been filled in, the responsible specialist of the territorial branch of the RF PF is obliged to check the correctness of filling out the questionnaire (check it with the data in the documents). Then the questionnaire is converted into electronic form and undergoes appropriate processing. When the data is processed, an individual personal account is opened, and an insurance certificate is issued.
A unique account number is given to a person once in a lifetime and is unchanged. If in the process of data processing the system reports that matching data has been found with the previously registered insured person, the PF specialist decides to refuse to issue SNILS.
Is it possible to issue SNILS via the Internet?
Unfortunately, this service is not available at the moment. But the developers of such a resource as the Gosuslug website promise to present this opportunity to everyone soon.
conclusions
It is quite easy to solve the issue of issuing SNILS for a child, you just need to contact any branch of the PF with a minimum package of documents. Or contact a school or preschool institution, it is possible to draw up an insurance pension document for a child there.
