Maternity capital can solve many problems for a family with several children, but it is important to manage them correctly. There are several areas where this payment can be directed that can greatly improve a family's life. And for the convenience of using money, you may need a certificate of the balance of maternity capital.

The fact is that the Pension Fund, which is responsible for providing maternity capital to families, does not limit them to investing money in one direction. Families can spend only part of the money or spend half the capital on one business and half on another. There is no prohibition on dividing maternity capital into shares; you just need to choose one of the possible directions. Since maternity capital is designed to quickly and significantly improve the living conditions of the family, it can be spent only in a few cases. This cannot be the purchase of a car or land, since these purchases cannot quickly and reliably help children and parents in all cases. These points should be adhered to:

• Expenses associated with the purchase, renovation or construction of a home. The most popular and important option. If a family wants to exchange apartments or restore a private house, they will be able to use maternity capital for this. Also, with the help of capital, you can repay, partially or fully, a targeted loan, if it was taken out for the construction of a house or the purchase of an apartment;
• Mother's pension. Another opportunity that can ensure a calm and stable future. Maternity capital can be placed as a funded part of a pension, and after that the mother will receive additional interest;
• Education. This item can also be covered by maternity capital, including tuition and dormitory fees;
• Help for a disabled child. Maternity capital can be used to cover the cost of purchases and services for a disabled child;

Previously, another item was canceled - a lump sum payment for the daily needs of the family. Later it is planned to restore this direction.

When part of the maternity capital has already been spent, the family may think about the possibility of using the remaining funds. To do this, it would be better to obtain a certificate of the balance of maternity capital.

Certificate of maternity capital funds

The question may arise whether a certificate of maternity capital status is really necessary. Since the family knows the amount indicated in the certificate, and also knows how much maternity capital has been spent, then why not independently calculate how much money is left. It would be easier. And at the same time it is much less beneficial for the family.

The fact is that the amount of maternity capital changes annually. If the amount remained the same for ten years, taking into account rising prices and inflation, assistance to families would decrease annually. To prevent this from happening, maternity capital is indexed. Therefore, the initial amount of maternity capital increased from 250,000 rubles to 453,026 rubles.

When a family uses one part of maternity capital and leaves the second for a while, the balance grows taking into account all changes in the law of maternity capital. To calculate the correct balance amount, special calculations are required, which are carried out by specialists of the Pension Fund. If necessary, families can order this certificate. To do this, you will need to contact the Pension Fund.

You will need to present copies of your passport and maternity capital certificate, after which within three days the certificate will be prepared and handed over to the requester. Typically, the response will be delivered directly to the family's residence. It is important to note that a certificate of maternity capital will not be issued if the account balance is less than 30 rubles.

Another way to get a certificate of maternity capital is to do it online. There is such a service on the Pension Fund website. This is simpler, but it is worth considering that such a certificate cannot be used as a document; it is for informational purposes only.
