How to register as a veteran of military service. Military pensioners, labor veterans

The title of labor veteran provides a number of benefits, so many retirees are interested in receiving this status. However, not everyone is entitled to it. You must meet the requirements and provide a complete package of documents. What exactly is required and how to get a labor veteran in 2018 is described in this article.

According to adopted laws, the rules and procedure for assigning the title of labor veteran to a candidate are prescribed in the Federal Law “On Veterans”. The list of benefits provided depends on the specific region, since they exist at the regional and federal levels. There are three categories of veterans at the moment:

1. Veteran of labor in the USSR.
2. Labor veteran in the Russian Federation since January 1, 2005.
3. Labor veteran in the Russian Federation since July 1, 2016.

There were and are established requirements for conferring this title. It's worth looking at this in more detail.

Features of obtaining the title of veteran in the USSR

Soviet citizens, in order to receive a certificate and medal confirming their labor services to their homeland, had to actively work and show good results for many years. 20 years - fixed time for women and 25 years for men. There were no benefits and cash payments for gaining status, but it served as moral satisfaction for many.

Status was assigned through the issuance of a certificate and badge. He could have different shape, depending on the organization. There was no single style.

Important! The badge usually looked like a medal and was accompanied by a corresponding certificate. In 1995, the Law “On Veterans” was adopted, according to which everyone who had badges and certificates could receive fringe benefits. The provision of the law clearly states to whom and what benefits are provided and from which budget the payments come. The law was in force until January 1, 2005.

Labor veterans in the Russian Federation since January 1, 2005

This year, benefits were monetized. Veterans now have a choice. Some decided to receive money instead of the preferences provided, while others retained benefits provided, which began to be provided also from the regional budget. A heavy financial burden fell on the shoulders of the regions, as a result of which some were unable to cope with it.

Regions were allowed to independently set the amount of benefits in order to provide them as much as possible. Since the capacity of the federal budget is much higher, the regions have reduced the provision to beneficiaries, as a result of which many have given up their privileges in favor of receiving funds.

Labor veterans in the Russian Federation since July 1, 2016

Several amendments were introduced to the Law “On Veterans”, as a result of which this status could be obtained by:

1. Persons who have been issued a badge and certificate at the enterprise in which they work long years during the USSR.
2. Persons who were forced to start working before reaching 18 years of age because the war began. The total length of service for men and women should be 40 and 35 years, respectively.
3. Persons who were awarded a state award for their contribution to the development of the USSR, the RSFSR and (or) the Russian Federation.

Career military personnel who have worked for more than 15 years in the Armed Forces of the USSR, the RSFSR or the Russian Federation can also be recognized as labor veterans in certain regions. Moreover, they must work for at least 20 years (women) and 25 years (men) during their lives.

Registration process

To get it, you need to be patient and be present in government structures in person. Not all pensioners can ensure their presence and travel due to their age. Therefore, you can draw up a power of attorney and have it certified by a notary. Then the legal representative, having collected the necessary package of documents, will be able to issue honorary title.

According to current legislation, you must contact the department social support citizens. It is usually located in the district administration. You will need to provide the following documents:

1. Passport of a citizen of the Russian Federation.
2. Two pictures. Like a passport.

   

3. Pensioner ID or SNILS.

   

4. Work record and other information that will allow you to confirm seniority candidate.
5. Documents confirming receipt of the award for conscientious work During a long time.

   

You need to have copies of all documents with you, as they are handed over to the social security department after a specialist checks with the original and certifies the copies.

Important! It is not necessary to provide the medal itself. If there is a medal, but no certificate, then you will not be able to obtain veteran status, since an individual number was not written on such award signs. Thus, there is no way to determine who exactly was given the medal.

When a representative of the candidate applies, he must additionally present his passport and power of attorney. It is worth noting that in some regions they accept a handwritten power of attorney that is not certified by a notary. Therefore, it is recommended to call the department in advance social protection to clarify what kind of power of attorney needs to be issued. There is a good chance that the staff will provide a sample.

The procedure for conferring the title of labor veteran

This procedure is established by the Federal Law “On Veterans”. According to this law, document verification may take up to 30 days. ABOUT the decision taken reported within 5 days from the date of the order. A special commission is reviewing the decision. It is created from employees of the social protection department. They are guided by the completeness of the documents provided and current laws in your work.

If there are no grounds for refusal, then a decision is made in favor of the applicant. He is issued an appropriate certificate. It guarantees the receipt of benefits provided current legislation. In this case, the veteran must additionally write an application to receive current benefits. This measure was taken to save budget funds. Their list is attached. The application must also be taken to the benefits department and social payments.

Important! Today there are no uniform rules for obtaining the title of labor veteran. Each region regulates the procedure for granting this status independently. This right was given to regional heads on January 1, 2005. It was from this period that the full provision of benefits to veterans fell on the regional budget.

Main differences in the regulations for assigning status

The differences are usually minor. Here is their main list:

1. Refusal to recognize certain insignia issued by certain government departments.
2. The possibility of assigning this status to innovators, honorary donors and inventors.
3. It's enough just to have required experience, the presence of the award is optional, but will be an additional advantage.

Thus, before collecting a package of documents, it is necessary to clarify what exactly is required in a particular region.

Regulations on shock workers of communist labor

Several years ago there was a lot of debate about the legality of granting a veteran of labor to those who had the “Shock Worker of Communist Labor” badge. This is also a badge of distinction, confirming the fact of the citizen’s work and his outstanding merits, which went to the benefit of his country.

The Supreme Court of the Russian Federation resolved all disputes when it made its decision. He provided full list awards, diplomas, certificates and other insignia that allow you to receive the honorary title of veteran. The list is quite large, but this icon is not included in the list. After this, the disputes were resolved and in all regions where presentation of awards and certificates was required, they began to refuse to confer the title on shock workers of communist labor.

The main reason for the court's decision was the fact that the issuance of such badges was carried out as additional motivation for high-quality and conscientious performance of labor duties. There was no connection to the department or length of service of the recipient.

The following awards are also not considered as grounds for granting an application for an honorary title:

1. Military units.
2. Public organizations.
3. Sports communities.
4. Commercial structures.
5. Structures of federal authorities.

What does work experience consist of?

Candidates must have the required work experience. In addition to working at the main place of work, the length of service also includes the following:

1. Military service, including participation in hostilities.
2. Maternity leave for 1.5 years after the birth of a child.
3. Providing care to a disabled child or group I disabled person.
4. Care for elderly people over 80 years of age.
5. Work activity that complies with the rules of the insurance period.

Important! The total duration of child care cannot exceed 4.5 years. If a woman was on maternity leave for a total of more than this time, then the length of service for the fourth and subsequent children is not counted.

Medal 1974

In 1974, a medal was established, which was awarded to top level as a token of gratitude for your dedicated work over time. All persons who were awarded it were entered into a special register. Its presence is an indisputable right to receive benefits. It does not matter whether you have a certificate for this medal or not. on her back side there is an individual number according to which in the state archive you can find information about who exactly received state award and in what year.

Unfortunately, sometimes the title is denied, despite the availability of a complete package of documents. Then you will need to do the following:

1. Contact the head of the social protection department for clarification on the reason for the refusal.
2. Contact the Ministry of Labor to reconsider your issue.
3. Go to court if the previous two steps did not bring the desired result.

Courts often side with citizens and oblige government employees to award the plaintiff the title of labor veteran. However, one statement of claim is not enough. It is necessary to provide a complete package of documents and prepare an evidence base. It is best to hire an experienced lawyer to represent your interests in court. He will be able to competently convey your position, based on current laws.

What kind of support can citizens expect?

There are two types of benefits for labor veterans, which are provided from the regional and federal budgets. More detailed information is presented in the table.

Let us remind you that a veteran cannot use all benefits at once. After receiving a certificate confirming the right to these preferences, he must write an application to choose those benefits that are relevant specifically for him. In particular, people who do not travel public transport, may not choose the right to free pass.

Veterans of labor who are retired are exempt from paying income tax individuals and property tax. They can also issue a deduction for treatment, including sanatorium-resort treatment.

It is worth noting that pensioners who have agreed to magnetize their benefits are not entitled to their re-receipt, since they receive additional accruals to their pension in the form of compensation for the lack of these preferences.

Let us remind you that before collecting the full package of documents, it is worth checking with the department of benefits and social payments what exactly needs to be provided in a particular region and under what conditions third parties can represent the interests of the candidate. It is worth noting that today the title of labor veteran is desirable for many, since some have been equated with WWII veterans. And these are other benefits.

For many years, the honorary title “Veteran of Labor” has been one of the ways to support workers at the state level by providing social guarantees in gratitude for impeccable and long-term work.

In particular, honorable workers in different regions Russia have the right to provide various facilitative measures not only daily life, but also financial situation.

Legislative basis for this concept

In Russia, many pensioners have the honorary title “Veteran of Labor”, at least every third, since our people know how to work and, as a rule, have a fairly long career, more than 40 years total experience and this despite the fact that 25 years is enough to assign a pension.

And many of today’s pensioners also have distinctive signs with which they were noted during their working career for impeccable work and invaluable contribution to the country’s economy, which is accordingly rewarded by granting honored workers the honorary title “Veteran of Labor,” which, in essence, means recognition merits at the state level with the provision of a certain list of social guarantees.

IN currently procedure for granting the title “Veteran of Labor” regulated by the norms of Federal Law No. 5 “On Veterans”, in particular Article 7 and Article 22, which set out the conditions for conferring the title, as well as measures of social support, which, by the way, are approved at the regional level specifically for this category of veterans. That is, each subject of the Russian Federation has approved a list of benefits provided to veterans living on their territory.

It should also be noted several features upon receiving this title. Only a citizen of the Russian Federation can become an honorary veteran, for foreign citizen even if you have considerable work experience, you will be able to obtain this title only after obtaining Russian citizenship; by the way, work experience in other countries will be taken into account, but only if an agreement has been concluded between the states on the basis of the CIS Agreement.

And as a rule, the title “Veteran of Labor” is awarded after a pension is assigned, but you can also get the right to a pension early. In particular, on the basis of Federal Law No. 400, if you have length of service in a certain industry, you can apply for a pension according to List No. 1 or List No. 2, which implies retirement not upon reaching the statutory limit. retirement age at 60 years for men and at 55 years for women, and earlier.

Who can apply for this title and by what criteria?

However, obtaining this honorary title even with impeccable work performance is not always easy, because in order to recognize one’s own labor merits, the state needs to document several conditions that are established at the legislative level and are the basis for receiving the “Veteran of Labor” certificate.

First of all, a hard worker must have work experience in a certain industry for at least 15 years, and continuous experience, that is, you need to work at one enterprise for an agreed period of time without resigning, but perhaps climbing the career ladder from a simple worker to the head of a department.

Secondly, you need to have total work experience at least a quarter of a century for men and 5 years less for women, and the 15 years specified above may be included in it, because the entire length of service is taken as a whole.

Thirdly, the future veteran must have departmental signs differences, which are medals and orders, honorary titles, diplomas and Thanksgiving letters, presented by the Ministries or the President himself.

That is, in order to receive the title “Veteran of Labor,” a worker must have both sufficient experience and departmental distinctive signs at the same time, because on the basis of Article 7 of Federal Law No. 5, these are precisely the conditions for conferring the title. It is worth noting one more feature: diplomas and letters of gratitude are awarded to almost everyone, but to receive an honorary title it is necessary to have departmental insignia approved by Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 758 and other acts of federal significance.

Preparation of documents

In order to receive the title “Veteran of Labor of the Russian Federation” you must submit next package of documents:

If documents for receiving the title “Veteran of Labor” are submitted not personally by the applicant, but by his representative, then you will also need to provide a power of attorney executed in accordance with Article 185.1 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation and a passport or other document identifying the representative.

The entire package of documents described above should be placed in a separate folder and then submitted for consideration to social protection authorities at the place of registration. Although, of course, the future veteran can live at a different address, but benefits will be provided only at the official place of residence, therefore, you need to either register temporarily at the place of residence or submit documents at the place of registration, since benefits are based on the decision of the local government are provided only in the region where the veteran officially resides.

Registration procedure

First of all, to obtain the honorary title of “Veteran of Labor” you should: fill out an application, the form of which will be provided at the social protection department. As a rule, the application form itself has a prescribed form approved by regulations at the local level. So, in particular, in Moscow, the application form is approved by Moscow Government Decree No. 989-PP.

Filling out the provided form is not at all difficult, since it contains columns in which data is entered based on the submitted documents, which are actually listed along with passport data and a request to assign the specified title. And given that the submitted documents contain the applicant’s personal data, the future veteran in the application confirms his consent to their processing in compliance with the norms of Federal Law No. 152, which recipients of another person’s personal information are required to comply with.

Submitted package of documents be submitted to the commission for consideration, which is formed under the local government from specialists from various industries in the region. The application with documents is considered for two weeks, during which the submitted documents are examined for their authenticity, as well as the grounds for conferring this title. It is departmental awards that are most carefully studied, which in many situations become a stumbling block and a basis for refusal.

At the end of the meeting, a decision of the commission is drawn up, which is communicated to the applicants in writing after 5 days. If the commission recognizes the applicant’s right to receive an honorary title, documents are prepared, in particular a certificate, which is then presented in a solemn ceremony. If a decision has been made to refuse, the response to the applicant must necessarily contain the justification for such a decision with a reference from the regulations.

However this problem can be resolved, because refusal to grant the honorary title of labor veteran at the local level does not mean a final resolution of the issue, because you can go to court to challenge it, but only if there is legal grounds, or to local authorities for clarification of the validity of the refusal.

Various nuances of assigning this status

It is quite difficult to obtain an honorary title of any level, primarily due to large quantity additional documents, and also due to basic ignorance of the laws, but obtaining the title “Veteran of Labor” is doubly difficult, since too many controversial situations arise, first of all, related to the approval of departmental awards and their list. After all, each industry has its own awards and, therefore, to confirm their legitimacy, you also need to find a reason, which many pensioners, of course, cannot, and therefore are refused.

So, in particular, the question arises: does the right drummer of communist labor for an honorary title, because, in fact, awards received under the USSR also give the right to receive the title “Veteran of Labor”. However, the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation explained that this particular type of award was provided back in 1976 as a moral incentive, and not a reward for selfless work, therefore, if the applicant has the “shock worker of communist labor” badge, the applicant does not have the right to be awarded an honorary title.

It should be noted that the procedure for establishing departmental insignia is approved not only by Government Decree No. 578, at the local level, the constituent entities of the Russian Federation are developing their own lists of departmental awards, taking into account the industries that are mostly represented on their territory. So, in particular, in the republic Tatarstan Order No. 481 of the Ministry of Labor was issued, which approved a list of awards of departmental significance. There are similar normative acts in other subjects of the federation, and the stipulated acts stipulate not only lists of awards, but also the procedure for conferring the title of “Veteran of Labor”, as well as established social guarantees, which veterans can use.

Of course, each region has different financial capabilities, therefore, the list of benefits is different in different regions, and in the constituent entities of the Russian Federation there are various conditions providing such benefits. In particular, in Moscow, benefits can be used from the moment of receiving an honorary title, and in St. Petersburg only upon reaching retirement age in general procedure, that is, if you have a service pension of 50 years and are awarded an honorary title, benefits can only be used at the age of 60 for men and at 55 for women, respectively.

Obtaining the title “Veteran of Labor” is not always easy, given the conditions for its provision, but if there are grounds, you can always turn to the social protection authorities for help, at least for clarification and procedures, because social workers. spheres are not only obliged to draw up documents, but to help pensioners with advice and kind words.
