Nowadays, people's living standards are constantly improving. At the same time, with the continuous improvement of people's conditions, there are basically no major problems in raising children. Therefore, many people have begun to prepare for raising a second child. So, what are the relevant regulations on the deposit for the second child in 2022? Let's take a look at the following introduction by the editor of Faneng Law Firm.
An official from the Publicity Department of the National Health and Family Planning Commission told Caixin reporters that the "second-child guarantee deposit" is a rumor. The family planning department has never issued a corresponding policy, and the National Health and Family Planning Commission has not received any related complaints from various regions so far.
Since 2016, the "universal two-child policy" has been officially implemented across the country. Since the beginning of the year, news about the "second child deposit" has also been constantly circulating on the Internet. According to incomplete statistics by Caixin reporters, the places mentioned by netizens include Laiyang, Haiyang, Longkou and Qixia, all county-level cities under Yantai City in Shandong Province, Rushan, a county-level city under Weihai City, and Baoying County, Yangzhou City in Jiangsu Province.
Reporters separately called the marriage registration offices of the civil affairs bureaus in the above-mentioned regions, and the staff members all denied the existence of the "second child guarantee deposit". Among them, a staff member from the marriage registration office of Laiyang Civil Affairs Bureau said, "It cannot be collected nationwide. (The deposit for the second child) has nothing to do with us. We are the place for marriage registration." A staff member from the marriage registration office of Haiyang Civil Affairs Bureau said that the rumor about the "second child guarantee deposit" was false.
The last time a similar piece of news circulated on Weibo was on February 13, 2016. A Weibo user @Mo Wang Chuxin, Geng Xue, posted that the local civil affairs bureau required a 5,000-yuan "second child deposit" for obtaining a marriage certificate starting from 2016. The deposit would be returned if a second child was born, but not if no child was born. Within a few hours, the Weibo post was retweeted nearly ten thousand times.
Subsequently, the Weibo post was deleted. The blogger later posted on Weibo, saying, "From everyone's retweets and comments, I know that the matter of collecting money is highly regional and the amounts vary." But we cannot deny its existence just because it is not widespread.
Journalists have found that since 2016, apart from Qiqihar, there have also been claims in places such as Harbin and Weihai, Shandong Province that "a 5,000-yuan deposit for the second child is required for marriage registration", all of which have been refuted by local civil affairs departments.
In some cities, the civil affairs departments have already refuted the rumors. On January 17, 2016, the Weihai Evening News reported that regarding the news that a 5,000-yuan "second child deposit" was required for marriage registration, a staff member of the Weihai Civil Affairs Bureau in Shandong Province stated, "This news is false."
1. Let the first child not feel lonely. Especially for some parents of only children born in the 1980s, as their only child, they feel that they have always been alone from childhood to adulthood. There is no one to share their joys and worries with. It's not at all lively or fun. I envy others who have siblings. So I always want my child to have a companion. It's better than being alone. When they grow up, they can help each other and have more relatives and friends. It's a very lively life.
2. Make parents feel a bit dependent when they get old. If there is only one child, when they go to school or work in the future, or even settle down in another place with their parents at home, the house will be lifeless and there will be no one by their side. It will look so gloomy. If there is one more child, perhaps there will always be one to stay by their side. When they get old, they won't feel so lost and lonely. Having children around to serve tea and water, and having someone to take care of and help when having a cold or illness, is much more convenient.
3. Make the soul feel more complete. In some families, if they have a daughter, they might want to have a boy to form a good character. Although it doesn't matter whether the child is a boy or a girl, in some rural areas, especially among some elderly people, they prefer grandchildren and might put some pressure on their daughters-in-law to have a second child. In this way, if a boy happens to be born, the family will feel very proud and fulfilled. It is said that there are more boys than girls nowadays. Is that true?
During maternity leave, regardless of whether it is the first or second child, one is entitled to maternity living allowances and maternity medical expense subsidies in accordance with the law. The monthly maternity living allowance standard is the contribution base of the urban endowment insurance premium for the month when the individual gives birth or has an abortion. If the contribution base of the current month is lower than the average monthly salary of all employees in the city of the previous year, it shall be calculated based on the average monthly salary of all employees in the city of the previous year. If an individual's salary standard is higher than the social insurance payment standard, the excess portion shall still be made up by the employer.
The above is the relevant regulations on the deposit for the second child in 2022 collected by the editor of Fan Neng Law Firm for everyone. There is no need to pay a fine for having a second child anymore, and it will not force the couple to resign or be demoted. This should be a great benefit for many families who want a second child.
