Tax benefits to foster families
Valentina Matvienko considers it appropriate to introduce a reduced rate of tax on income in respect of paid in the regions of benefits for families with foster children.
The Senator noted that foster families in Russia is becoming more “just this year, the family took care of more than 50 thousand children-orphans”. “Frankly, we did not expect that the adoption and guardianship will accept such scale”, – said the head of the Federation Council. One of the forms of state care to foster homes, she believes, can become preferential taxation of benefits paid to them.
“In many regions there are additional measures of social support to families in the form of cash payments for care of the adopted child”, – reminded the speaker. “Their volume is small, but they are subject to income tax at the rate of 13 percent. Nonsense! I think we should support the initiative made by the deputies of the Kursk regional Duma on the introduction of appropriate tax incentives,” said the Senator.
The head of the Federation Council noted that over the past two years the number of orphans in Russia decreased almost twice – from 119 to 73.5 thousand. “The fact that orphans in shelters, was much less is the merit of our fellow citizens who have formed adoptive family,” she said. According to Matvienko, “the majority of foster families do this step on souls and hearts”, however, “these people have to constantly feel supported by the state”.
