The expert spoke about the conditions for obtaining a tax deduction for children

Citizens of the Russian Federation are entitled to monthly tax deductions for children, while the benefit is available only until the taxable income exceeds 450 thousand rubles per year. Ekaterina Golubtsova, Associate Professor of the Department of State and Municipal Finance at Plekhanov Russian University of Economics, recalled this on June 12.

Any employed parent whose income is less than 450 thousand rubles per year can apply for such a deduction. The benefit is also available to adoptive parents, guardians, foster parents, and parents' spouses, even if the child is not related to them.

Deductions have been doubled since 2025. For the first child, the deduction is 1.4 thousand rubles, for the second — 2.8 thousand rubles, for the third and each subsequent — 6 thousand rubles, Golubtsova told RIA Novosti.

To receive a deduction, a parent must apply to the employer with an application and copies of supporting documents. At the same time, the benefit is valid until the month in which the total annual income exceeds 450 thousand rubles, the expert said.
