Additional material support, as indicated, is a kind of material support. The latter, as follows from the above, constitutes the main element of social security, including such methods as cash payments (pensions, benefits) and in-kind support. A feature of additional security is its auxiliary nature in the system pension provision: additional material support encourages for special merits or compensates for harmful working conditions, life.
Based on its purpose, additional material support is assigned to certain categories of citizens, and the circle of these categories of citizens is much narrower than the circle of citizens receiving basic material support (compare, for example, the number of pensioners in general and some of them receiving additional material rewards as Heroes Soviet Union).
The legislation on additional monthly material security consists of separate normative legal acts that establish the grounds, amount and procedure for the payment of security. These acts can be adopted at the federal level and at the level of the constituent entities of Russia, since according to clause "g" part 1 of Art. 72 of the Constitution of the Russian Federation, issues of social protection are attributed to the joint jurisdiction of the Russian Federation and the constituent entities of the Russian Federation.
One of the court cases is interesting in this regard. The Prosecutor of the Voronezh Region applied to the court with a request to invalidate clause 1 of the resolution of the Voronezh Region Administration of May 4, 1995 "On additional measures for social protection of participants in demining groups in the region's territory in 1943-1945", as well as clause 1.4 and 7.1 of the Regulations on the procedure for the appointment and payment of a monthly supplement to state pensions to members of demining groups of the Voronezh region in 1943-1945, approved by a resolution of the regional administration of October 24, 2003 No.
In support of the stated claim, the prosecutor referred to the fact that the contested norms of the resolution of the regional administration and the Regulations providing for the appointment and payment of a monthly supplement to pensions only to those members of demining groups who permanently reside in the territory of the Voronezh region are permanently registered in the territory of the region, and the termination of the payment of the additional payment in connection with leaving for a permanent place of residence outside the region, they contradict the federal legislation and the legislation of the region. By the decision of the Voronezh Regional Court dated September 24, 2004, the prosecutor was rejected to satisfy the application.
The Judicial Collegium for Civil Cases of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation on February 9, 2005 refused to satisfy the submission, pointing out that federal legislation does not provide for the provision of additional material support to citizens for participating in the demining of the country's territory during the Great Patriotic War. In this regard, the constituent entity of the Russian Federation had the right to establish monthly additional payments to the pensions of these persons at its own level. At the same time, the regional administration had the right to distribute the aforementioned allowances to pensions only to residents of the region and, when they leave the region for permanent residence, to stop paying these allowances, since they are financed from the regional budget.

In the listed regulatory legal acts, the established payments are most often referred to as additional monthly material support, but sometimes as a monthly supplement to pension (Resolution of the Government of the Russian Federation "On Approving the List of Positions of Flight Crew Members of Civil Aviation pensions in accordance with the Federal Law "On Additional Social Security of Flight Crew Members of Civil Aviation Aircraft" dated March 14, 2003 N 155). additional character.
Additional monthly material support is made regardless of the receipt of other payments provided for by the legislation of the Russian Federation, the legislation of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation and acts of local government bodies (for example, pensions, subsidies, compensations, etc.). This is the essence of the complementarity feature of the considered type of security.
According to the preamble "On additional monthly material support of citizens of the Russian Federation for outstanding achievements and special services to the Russian Federation" dated 04.03.2002 N 21-FZ (hereinafter - Law No. 21-FZ), its purpose is to determine the conditions and procedure for the appointment and payment of additional material provision for outstanding achievements and special services to the state to citizens of the Russian Federation.
In accordance with Law No. 21-FZ, citizens of the Russian Federation residing in the territory of the Russian Federation, receiving a pension, a monthly life allowance paid to a retired judge, and having outstanding achievements and special services to the Russian Federation, are entitled to additional monthly material support for outstanding achievements and special services to the Russian Federation.
Law No. 21-FZ (clause 2, article 1) indicates the categories of citizens who are assigned additional material support:
1) Heroes of the Soviet Union, Heroes of the Russian Federation;
2) citizens awarded the Order of the Holy Apostle Andrew the First-Called;

7) citizens awarded the Order of Labor Glory of three degrees;
8) laureates of the Lenin Prize, laureates of the state prizes of the USSR and laureates of the state prizes of the Russian Federation (RSFSR);
9) citizens awarded the order "For Service to the Motherland in the Armed Forces of the USSR" of three degrees;
10) champions of the Olympic Games, champions of the Paralympic Games, champions of the Olympic Games.

This means that the receipt of such monetary payments actually deprives the citizen of the right to additional material security in accordance with the Law of March 4, 2002 N 21-FZ and that its establishment in this case is possible only on condition of the termination of other payments. These payments include:

Also, the repeated champion of the Paralympic Games, despite having several gold medals, will be provided with one additional material support.

In this case, the pension rights acquired during the period of service are converted into the estimated pension capital if the following conditions are simultaneously met: 1) during the period of service these citizens were not subject to compulsory pension insurance; 2) they were dismissed from service not earlier than 2002; 3) they have not acquired the right to a seniority pension, a disability pension, or a monthly lifelong maintenance funded from the federal budget.
Since these persons were not subject to compulsory pension insurance and no insurance premiums were paid for them, their pension capital is formed at the expense of the federal budget, which are transferred to the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation. In this case, these persons acquire the status of insured persons. The amount of funds credited to the individual personal account of these insured persons is determined depending on the duration of service, which took place not earlier than 2002, and the cost insurance yearapproved by the Government of the Russian Federation. The transformation of the pension rights of the insured persons into the estimated pension capital is carried out when the insurance part of the old-age labor pension (labor disability pension) is assigned to these persons.
§ 3. Pensions to citizens recognized as unemployed
A special place in the pension legislation is occupied by the Law on Employment of the Population. This Law provides for special conditions for the appointment of early retirement pension. This pension is assigned before the achievement of the general retirement age on grounds that are not provided for by Law No. 173-FZ.
An early retirement pension under the said Law can be assigned subject to a number of conditions: 1) recognition of a citizen as unemployed; 2) reaching the age of no more than two years lower than the age required for the appointment of an old-age labor pension (including those assigned ahead of schedule); 3) the existence of an insurance period of 25 years for men and 20 years for women, and, if necessary, the existence of a length of service in the relevant types of work, which gives the right to early assignment of an old-age retirement pension; 4) dismissal from the last job in connection with the liquidation of the organization (termination of activities by an individual entrepreneur), as well as in connection with a reduction in the number or staff of employees of the organization (for an individual entrepreneur).
Such a pension can be established at the suggestion of the employment services in the absence of employment opportunities for unemployed citizens from among these persons. In this case, the consent of the unemployed citizen is required.
The pension is assigned for the period until the onset of the age that gives the right to an old-age labor pension (including the one assigned ahead of schedule).
The amount of the pension established under the Law on Employment of the Population is determined according to the rules for calculating the insurance part of the old-age labor pension. However, this pension is paid at the expense of the federal budget. The payment of the pension established for unemployed citizens is terminated upon admission to work, the time of completion of which is included in the insurance period. After the termination of this work, the payment of pension is restored.
§ 4. Monthly life support of a retired judge
A special type of security is the monthly life support of a retired judge. This type of payment is provided for by the Law on the Status of Judges and the Law on the Constitutional Court. If a retired judge has a long record of service as a judge, he or she is paid (at his choice) a general pension or monthly life support.
According to the Law on the Status of Judges, monthly life support may be assigned depending on one or more conditions. The right to monthly life support is granted to a judge who:
1) either has worked as a judge for at least 20 years;
2) either has reached the age of 55 (men) and 50 years (women) and has less than 20 years of experience as a judge;
3) either has reached the age of 60 (men) and 55 years (women), has at least 25 years of experience in the legal profession, including at least 10 years of work as a judge.
The length of service in the legal profession, taken into account when appointing a monthly life-long pay, includes the time of work as a judge and other work in the legal profession:
1) in positions that require higher legal education (government positions in the Russian Federation, government positions in the constituent entities of the Russian Federation, government service positions, municipal positions, positions in legal services of organizations, positions in research institutions, etc.);
2) as a teacher of legal disciplines in institutions of secondary vocational, higher vocational and postgraduate vocational education; as a lawyer or notary.
With a judicial experience of at least 20 years, a tax-free monthly life support is paid in the amount of 80% of the monthly monetary remuneration (earnings) of a judge working in the relevant position. Monthly life support increases by 1% for each full year of judicial service over 20 years, but not more than 85% of earnings.
With the experience of judicial work for less than 20 years and reaching the age of 55 and 50 years (respectively, men and women), the amount of monthly life support is calculated in proportion to the number of full years worked as a judge (for 10 years - 40% of earnings, for 15 years - 60% of earnings etc.).
When appointing a monthly lifelong maintenance in the presence of the three above conditions (age, length of service in the legal profession, length of service as a judge), the payment is made in full, i.e. 80% of monthly cash remuneration (earnings).
Retired judges who have become disabled as a result of military injury are entitled to a monthly life allowance and a disability pension. The appointment of monthly life support and its payment are made by the relevant government agencies. Funds to provide retired judges with monthly life support are allocated from the federal budget.
In accordance with the Law on the Constitutional Court, a retired judge of the Constitutional Court of the Russian Federation who has worked as a judge for at least 15 years, regardless of age, is paid a monthly life support in the amount of 80% of the monthly monetary remuneration of a working judge of the Constitutional Court of the Russian Federation. At the same time, the time of previous work in the legal profession is counted in the length of service, which gives the right to receive a monthly lifetime allowance.
(see text in previous edition)
The regulation on the procedure for appointing and paying monthly life support to judges of the Constitutional Court was approved by Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of April 27, 1995 No. 425.
§ 5. Insurance supplements to pensions
Pension reform, the implementation of which began in 2002, provided for the formation of professional pension systems... The absence of a fundamental law in this area leads to the emergence of separate laws, the purpose of which is to increase the level of pension provision for certain categories of citizens in connection with the implementation of certain long-term professional activities.
One of these laws is Law No. 155-FZ, which provides for the establishment of additional payments to the pensions of flight crew members. Since 2011, Law No. 84-FZ has come into force, which establishes similar supplements to the pensions of certain categories of workers in the coal industry. The establishment of a monthly supplement to the pension is an additional guarantee in connection with harmful, dangerous, strenuous and difficult working conditions of a special nature.
Monthly supplements to the pensions of these persons are established at the expense of the amounts of additional contributions paid by employers in excess of the total amount of insurance contributions provided for by the compulsory pension insurance system.
The supplement to the pension is established for flight crew members and workers in the coal industry, subject to a number of conditions that are associated with the duration of work in certain positions (length of service). For persons who have worked in the position of a member of the flight crew, which gives the right to an additional payment, the duration of the required length of service (length of service) is 25 years for men, 20 years for women. If they leave flight work for health reasons in a position that gives the right to an additional payment, the required length of service is 20 and 15 years, respectively. Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 155 dated March 14, 2003 (as revised on March 25, 2013) approved the List of positions of flight crew members of civil aviation aircraft, work in which entitles them to a monthly supplement to their pension, and the Rules for calculating length of service for receiving additional payments.
For persons who worked directly full-time in underground and opencast mining (with the exception of workers in leading professions), the duration of the required length of service is 25 years. For workers in leading professions, this duration is 20 years. The length of service, which gives the right to a supplement to the pension, includes periods of work that are counted in the length of service for the appointment of an early labor old-age pension provided for in paragraphs. 11 p. 1 art. 27 of Law No. 173-FZ.
The procedure for determining the amount of the surcharge is multi-stage and rather complicated. In addition, the amount of the additional payment is not constant. It may vary depending on the amount of actual contributions received. The pension supplement is paid on condition that the flight crew members and coal industry workers leave work, which gives them the right to a pension supplement.
§ 6. State supplements to pensions
At the expense of the federal budget, a supplement to the pension may be established, the amount of which depends on the duration of the holding of government positions in the Russian Federation or the performance of certain powers in government bodies. Such an additional payment is provided for by Law No. 3-FZ for members of the Federation Council and deputies of the State Duma who have served their powers for at least one year (except for those whose powers were terminated ahead of schedule due to the entry into force of the court's conviction). The supplement is established in addition to the pension assigned under Law No. 173-FZ or under the Law on Employment of the Population.
The monthly supplement to the pension is set in such an amount that the amount of the pension and the monthly supplement to it is: in the exercise of the powers of a deputy of the State Duma (member of the Federation Council) from one year to three years - 55%, over three years - 75% of the monthly monetary remuneration. The amount of the monthly supplement to the pension is recalculated when the monthly monetary remuneration of the deputy of the State Duma (member of the Federation Council) increases in a centralized manner.
The payment of the monthly supplement to the pension is suspended when filling a state position in the Russian Federation, a state position of a constituent entity of the Russian Federation, a state civil service position or a municipal position of a municipal service. A monthly supplement to pension is not established for a citizen of the Russian Federation who has been assigned a seniority pension, monthly lifelong maintenance, monthly supplementary pension in accordance with the legislation of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation, etc. (see text in previous edition)
(see text in previous edition)
§ 7. Additional material support for special merit
A special type of state supplement to pension is additional material security, which is provided for by Law No. 21-FZ. Citizens of the Russian Federation have the right to additional material support, regardless of their place of residence. Additional material support is established for persons who receive a pension or monthly life support paid to a retired judge and have state awards or honorary titles for outstanding achievements and special merits provided for by Law No. 21-FZ. These citizens include:
1) citizens awarded the title of Hero: Heroes of the Soviet Union, Heroes of the Russian Federation, Heroes of Socialist Labor;
2) citizens who have been awarded one or more orders: the Order of the Holy Apostle Andrew the First-Called; the Order of Lenin; the Order of Merit for the Fatherland, I degree, or II degree, or III and IV degrees; the Order of Glory of three degrees; the Order of Labor Glory of three degrees; the Order For Service to the Motherland in the Armed Forces of the USSR, three degrees;
3) laureates of the Lenin or State Prize;
4) champions of the Olympic (Paralympic, Deaflympic) Games.
Additional material support is not assigned if the citizen receives other monetary payments, which include: seniority pension; monthly supplement to pension, established by the legislation of the Russian Federation, constituent entities of the Russian Federation, acts of local authorities in connection with the replacement of state and municipal posts; salaries for the titles of full member and corresponding member of the Russian Academy of Sciences and branch academies.
Citizens who have the right to additional material support under Law No. 21-FZ and additional material support under other regulatory acts are assigned one of these payments at their choice.
Additional material support for special merit in monetary terms differs depending on the basis in connection with which it is established. Its size is calculated as a percentage of the size of the social pension and is 415%, 330% or 250% of the social pension. Additional material security in the amount of 415% of the social pension is established for persons awarded the title of Hero (USSR, Russian Federation, Socialist Labor), in the amount of 330% - for persons awarded the title of laureate of the Lenin or State Prize), in the amount of 250% - for Olympic (Paralympic , Deaflympics) Games. Citizens awarded orders are included in all three groups, depending on the specific order.
When the size of the social pension changes, the size of the additional material security paid increases at the same time. Since April 1, 2013, the size of the social pension, on the basis of which additional material security is determined, is 3,692 rubles. per month.
The payment of additional material security is made simultaneously with the payment of the corresponding pension or life support of the judge. Additional material support is not paid during the period of performance of paid work. Payment of additional material support is carried out at the expense of the federal budget.
