 Ministry of Labor proposed in 2017 to increase the rate of insurance payments to the pension fund for salaries in excess of the base rate and raise it to 2% per year up until 2021. This will finance the indexation of pensions, but will increase the burden on employers. Office Proposals knows about RBC, were discussed at a meeting with Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev on February 18th.

 They imply that the contributions paid by employers to the Pension Fund for the most “expensive” workers will increase in stages – from 10% in 2016 to 20% in 2021-m. The rate of insurance premiums to the Pension Fund is 22%, but it applies as long as the payment to the employee does not reach a certain threshold (cumulative from the beginning of the year). In 2016, this threshold is 796 thousand. Rub. (Indexed annually). If in the year of payment exceeds this value, the rate of 10% applies.

 If the Ministry of Labour initiative will be accepted, on the employer’s burden in 2017 will increase by about 1 thousand. Rub. per month from each paycheck into a 100 thousand. rub. The rate of contribution to the Pension Fund at 10% for a well-paid workers was introduced in 2012 on the initiative of Dmitry Medvedev, now the prime minister (before the earnings above the limit value applied zero tariff). The total rate of insurance contributions to the extrabudgetary funds was reduced from 34% to 30% (including payments to the Pension Fund – 26% to 22%), and for certain categories of taxpayers – up to 20%. It was presented as a reduction of the tax burden on business.

 Now the Ministry of Labor offers almost eliminated by 2021 for the differentiation of rates of wages above and below the limit value. According to calculations departments, the tariff increase of 2% gives an additional income in the amount of 58.61 billion rubles. And by 2021, the effect of a 10 percent rate increase to reach 234.44 billion rubles.

 Ministry of Labor Offers are not limited to growth rates of the insurance premium. Thus, at a meeting with the Prime Minister once again talked about the suspension of the payment of insurance pensions to working pensioners, whose total annual income exceeds 1 million rubles. This RBC told two government officials familiar with the matter under discussion. At this time, it is assumed that the payment of a pension may be suspended from 1 July. Renewal is possible if the combined income is below 1 million rubles. for the year from 1 July or in the event of termination of employment or business activities. By this measure, Ministry of Labor is going to save in 2017 61.4 billion rubles. and another 190.3 billion rubles. in 2018. Educational, medical and creative workers could lose their benefits for early retirement: the period of retirement of these employees are invited to increase by 6 months each year.

 Along with proposals to increase income Pension Fund in the government began discussing other way. Internal Revenue Service drafted the replacement of differentiated insurance premiums to the Pension Fund, Social Insurance Fund and HIF on a single social insurance fee (ESAs). The corresponding document entitled “Road map to create a single management mechanism of premiums for compulsory pension and social insurance” was sent to the Government 2 February. Prior to October 1, 2016 the Ministry of Finance and the Federal Tax Service are going to develop and approve the tax reporting forms for ESAs. A single insurance company will transfer the collection to the Federal Tax Service – to a single budget classification code. It offers a number of Ministry of Finance to approve the December 1, 2016. Distribute receipts for the tax authorities will charge baskets. To this end, before August 15, 2016 are invited to synchronize information databases that contain information about the payers of insurance premiums, and insured individuals. ESAs planned to introduce from 1 January 2017 should be of the road map.

 This option does not suit the social block, said an official in the government. In addition, at the meeting with Medvedev noted that so far failed to link measures to increase income Pension Fund, developed by the Ministry of Labor, and the possible introduction of ESAs. Not yet developed, and a single rate of insurance rate, said another official. Against the idea of ​​a single administration of social security contributions act and independent trade unions.

 The officials spoke on condition of anonymity, that the final decision at a meeting with Dmitry Medvedev was not accepted.

 On the eve of the State Duma adopted in the first reading a bill providing criminal penalties for violations connected with the departure from the payment of insurance premiums to non-budgetary funds.

 Criminal offense will be hiding money or property of the organization or individual entrepreneur, due to be made the recovery of arrears (arrears) of insurance contributions to state extra-budgetary funds.

 Also introduced limits evasion premiums committed in large and very large sizes. Close in size to natural persons will be considered in the bar more than 600 thousand. Rub. the period within the three fiscal years in a row, or more than 1.8 million rubles, and for organizations -. more than 2 million rubles. and more than 6 million rubles. respectively, provided that the proportion of unpaid contributions exceed 10% of the amounts payable in the aggregate.
