Over 74,000 children in Yakutia received a singular financial aid distribution
In Yakutia, a region in Russia, families with children may be eligible for a financial aid program called the Unified Child Allowance. Here's a breakdown of the key details surrounding this assistance, based on information up to June 2024.
The Unified Child Allowance is a condition-based payment, with the main condition being the family's income level. To qualify, a family's average per capita income should be below the regional subsistence minimum. Each working-age family member's income, regardless of their employment status, should be at least 89,760 rubles over 12 months to not qualify for the allowance. The size of the allowance may vary depending on the increase in regional subsistence minimums.
The Unified Child Allowance is calculated based on the regional child subsistence minimum. In Yakutia, it ranges from 12,727 rubles (in the second zone, excluding the northern zone) to 30,390 rubles (in the northern zone). The amount for a family depends on their income level.
It's important to note that the presence of property and other factors, such as the employment of adult family members, should be considered when determining eligibility for the Unified Child Allowance. This rule also applies to the category of self-employed individuals. Previously, the period for receiving income for self-employed individuals was determined proportionally to the number of months from the date of registration.
Since the beginning of 2025, the Yakutia branch of the Social Fund has provided the Unified Child Allowance to over 74,000 children. However, for the most accurate and up-to-date information regarding the conditions, income limits, and variations of the Unified Child Allowance in Yakutia for 2025, it is recommended to consult official sources such as the Sakha Republic (Yakutia) Government websites, the Ministry of Labor and Social Protection of the Russian Federation, and relevant regional legislative acts or decrees on social support and child allowances in Yakutia published in 2025.
