They noted that the agency launched an online form for processing payments for children from three to 16 years old and updated the payment form for children under three years old, so that "it would be easier for citizens to submit applications without leaving home."
“Since the launch of the forms on the portal, more than 500 thousand applications for children from three to 16 years old and more than 110 thousand applications for payments to children under three years old have already been submitted,” the statement said.
Earlier, the Ministry of Communications announced the launch of a service for making a lump sum payment for children in the amount of 10 thousand rubles on the website of public services.
On May 11, Russian leader Vladimir Putin said that from June 1, a payment of 10 thousand rubles should be made for each child in the family from 3 to 15 years old inclusive.
