The expert spoke about the possibility of families with children to return part of the taxes for 2025

Dmitry Shumeyko, a tax consultant, told how families with children can repay part of the taxes paid in 2025.

In conversation with RuNews24.Ru On Monday, February 16, he explained that the key condition for receiving a payment is the payment of personal income tax in 2025, that is, official employment. The self-employed and sole proprietors in special conditions do not fall under it.

He clarified that the average per capita income of a family is also taken into account: all official receipts for the year are added up, divided by the number of family members and by 12 months. The total amount should not exceed one and a half subsistence minimums per person in the region, while only incomes taken into account according to the rules for assigning payments are taken into account.

Another prerequisite is the presence of at least two children. At the same time, individuals may be excluded from the family, for example, those deprived of parental rights or under investigation, and errors in data often become the reason for refusal. You can apply from June 1 to October 1, 2026 through Gosuslugi, the IFC or the Social Fund. According to the expert, most often people lose payments due to missed deadlines or inaccuracies in documents.

To help mom and dad: family tax payment is introduced in Russia

The benefit will be effective from 2026.

On February 11, the deputy chairman of the State Duma Committee on Budget and Taxes, Kaplan Panes, noted that when calculating the composition of a family, conscripts who are on full state support and deprived of parental rights are not taken into account, NSN notes.

On February 2, Panes in an interview with Life.ru He called the "tax cashback" a tangible financial help for families. According to him, the measure provides for the return of a portion of the previously paid personal income tax, according to 360.ru . Targeted support is provided through recalculation of the tax at a reduced rate of 6% instead of the standard 13%, and the difference is transferred to the citizen's account.

In December, State Duma deputy Nikita Chaplin, a member of the Budget and Taxes Committee, said that from the beginning of 2026, a new tax support mechanism for working families with two or more children will come into force in Russia. This payment is an additional measure and does not cancel the right to receive other tax deductions, for example, for children, RT reports.

In September, it was reported that low-income families with one child want to provide a tax "cashback". They will be able to return 7% of personal income tax (personal income tax) per year, as well as large families who already have such a benefit. According to Nilov, the adoption of the bill will improve the financial situation of low-income families with children, reduce the existing financial stratification, and improve the demographic situation in the country.
