Egor Redin, Managing Partner of the Law Firm “Position Prava”, recalled the possibility for some Russians to receive a payment once a year. This is a one-time aid to the poor, provided for by federal law, reports the Prime agency.
The lawyer stressed that only a citizen who meets the requirements specified in the law can receive payment. In particular, such can be low-income families, single low-income Russians, as well as other categories of citizens who, for reasons beyond their control, have an income below the subsistence level in the region.
At the same time, the amount paid in each region is different. It is calculated taking into account living conditions, the size of the subsistence minimum, average wages and other factors. In the Moscow region, such a payment cannot exceed six thousand rubles per family member per year. And residents of the Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrug in case of an extreme life situation can get 50 thousand rubles.
