Maternal capital can be increased up to 1.5 million rubles in Russia

“Maternal capital” federal program turned out to be a vital support of 5 million people who have already become parents. Belgorod Duma deputies remind that this program is expired in 2016. In other words large families might be left without governmental financial support. That is why deputies discuss possibility to prolong this program up to 2026. At the same time they are planning to increase maternal capital up to 1.5 million rubles. This law has been introduced to the State Duma.

Moreover conditions for getting maternal capital can also be changed. Families are able to obtain necessary support in case they adopt of have their own second child. New conditions will include adoption of having their own third child. It means that this federal program will support only large families. If this law is approved, it will come into force starting from the 1st of January 2017.

We should mention that maternal capital is 429 000 rubles at the moment. The federal program has been launched on the 1st of January 2007. Maternal capital of that period included 250 000 rubles.
