According to Kuznetsova, many citizens asked to expand the age range for the payment of 10 thousand rubles. Now the benefit is paid to families with children from 3 to 16 years. The Russians proposed to increase the age of children to 18 years. Kuznetsova supported them and appealed to the government.
“Our appeal was transferred to the supervising agency – the Ministry of Labor, which, unfortunately, did not support our proposal. Of course, they cannot arrange their arguments related to the possibility of employing children over 16 years old, ”Kuznetsova said.

According to her, thousands of requests from citizens remain unanswered.
“This decision needs to be supported and disseminated,” Kuznetsova summed up.

The Ministry of Labor has not yet commented on the situation.
In an appeal to citizens on June 23, Putin announced the second payment of benefits of 10 thousand rubles. All families with children under the age of 16 will receive such financial assistance. More than 270 billion rubles will be allocated for these purposes.
