Appointment of maternity capital
We remind you that maternity capital is paid to the family for the birth / adoption of a second or any subsequent child (third, fourth ...). At the same time, the composition of the family does not play a role. But only a special certificate on the issuance of funds is issued into the hands, while the money itself is stored in the account of the Pension Fund. At the request of the owners, this amount is partially or fully transferred as intended.
Maternity capital can be used to improve housing conditions, pay mortgages (first installment or close a loan), solve a housing problem, educate a child, receive medical services by a mother or a child, pension contributions for one of the parents. You can’t use these funds to pay off consumer loans, buy a car or any personal items.
