The maternity allowance from January 1, 2014 will be set exclusively through the agency of the local social insurance houses. The allowance for the maternity leave that started before December 31, 2013 will be determined at the woman’s main job, as until now, IPN reports.

According to the National Social Insurance House, after receiving the maternity leave certificate, the woman must present it to the employer, who must write such data as the workplace, post and length of service on the opposite side of the certificate and put the company’s stamp there. Afterward, the certificate must be taken to the local social insurance house. The woman must also show the identity card there.

By the maternity leave certificate, the employer will know the period during which the woman will be absent from work. If the maternity leave starts in the administered quarter, the employer must issue the socially insured person’s statement REV-5 in order to set the social insurance contributions for the given quarter. This statement must also be taken to the local social insurance house.

If the allowance is requested at the husband’s workplace, the data of the socially insured husband will be written in the maternity leave certificate, while the insured person’s statement REV-5 will be issued in the name of the husband.
 
If the family does not ask for the maternity allowance until birth giving, it can be requested when submitting an application for receiving the single childbirth allowance or the monthly childcare allowance to the local social insurance house.

After the allowance is set, it will be paid by the National Social Insurance House from the contributions and will be transferred to the applicant’s personal account.
