Custody of the child - up to fourteen years

Every day several dozens of children in the country remain without the care of their parents. Some of the kids lose them permanently, and some - temporarily. It is for them that a special form of upbringing is envisaged in Russia. "Custody of the child," in non-legal language, is the admission of one or even a few minors to the family for upbringing. This is necessary for their normal maintenance, ensuring the receipt of upbringing and education and, of course, protecting their interests and rights.

Custody of the child and guardianship

Many do not understand the difference between guardianship and guardianship. The difference is, although not very large in legal terms. It is hidden in the age of the baby: custody of the child is established in the event that he is not yet fourteen years old. Guardianship - on the contrary, when a teenager has already overcome this age limit before his coming of age.

Often there are situations when guardianship over the child is an intermediate form of education until its final adoption. The reason for the need for such a transition state lies in the duration of the clearance procedure. In this case, the child can save his name and surname, as well as his patronymic. In addition, biological parents not only can, but, in some cases, are required to participate in the maintenance of their child. Despite this, more rights and, of course, the responsibility of the guardian. It is he who is responsible before the law for the content, upbringing and training of his ward. At the same time, the relevant guardianship and trusteeship agencies must help him , who are obliged to provide assistance, both in the educational process, and in rest and treatment of the child.

Custody of a child is not considered a secret. Moreover, it is not an obstacle for the contact of the baby with his blood relatives. For registration of this form of upbringing, it is necessary to submit to a local guardianship and trusteeship a certain set of certificates, similar to documents for the adoption of a child. This list includes a passport and, if available, a marriage certificate. In addition, you need references from your place of work and the amount of your salary. The future caregiver must necessarily undergo a medical examination and present a certificate stating that there is no previous conviction for causing harm to health or life.

State support

After providing all the necessary documents, the relevant authorities, having considered all the circumstances, register guardianship over the child. Payments, which are determined by the state monthly for the maintenance of each ward, depend on the region where the family lives. The average size of the allowance for each baby is about twelve thousand rubles. That's how much he will receive before his coming of age. In addition, the tutor is paid a little more than eleven thousand rubles. In some regions, compensation is also provided for utilities in the amount of eight hundred rubles. Unlike adoption, less strict requirements for income and housing issues apply to those wishing to formalize custody of the child. The relevant authorities regularly monitor the conditions in which the child lives and is brought up. And upon reaching adulthood, the guardian, if he does not have a home, gets it.
