What documents are required to apply for compensation for a kindergarten
Before proceeding with the registration of compensation, it is worth preparing the necessary documents. Their list includes:
- documents confirming the identity of the applicant;
- birth certificate;
- certificate of family composition (if the child is not the only one);
- a bank statement indicating the details of the account to which the funds will be transferred.
How to apply for compensation for kindergarten
Photocopies of these documents must be provided to the head of the kindergarten that the child is attending. You do not need to notarize them if you submit them at the same time as the originals.
You will be required to write a written statement on the appointment of compensation payments. It must be registered in a special journal. The preschool institution compiles lists of parents and submits them to social protection authorities, regional education authorities and territorial administrations.
How to calculate compensation for kindergarten
The amount of compensation due to parents depends on the number of children in the family. It is 20% of the actual payment for the first child, 50% for the second and 70% for the third.
The cost of a child's monthly stay depends on the category of the preschool educational institution. The higher it is, the more the fee will be charged.
To calculate the amount of compensation, the monthly cost of the kindergarten must be divided by the number of working days, and then multiplied by the number of days the child actually stayed. The amount received is multiplied by the percentage applied based on the number of children.
For example, a child attended kindergarten for 20 days. The cost of a month in the garden is 1500 rubles. It turns out that with 23 working days in a month, 1 day here costs 65, 22 rubles. In fact, the parents paid for 1304.4 (65, 22 * 20). Accordingly, if this is the only child in the family who attends the kindergarten, the amount of compensation will be 260, 88 rubles. (1304, 4 * 20/100).
The accrued compensation is transferred to the specified bank details of the parent in the month following the payment. The amount of the actual payment is independently transferred by the kindergarten to the authorized institutions.
