Monthly child benefits in the Ministry of Labor could reach up to 110,000 tenge
In January 2025, families with children in Kazakhstan saw an increase in their social benefits, with a 6.5 percent rise in the monthly payments. This change has significantly impacted the lives of many families, particularly large families, who have been receiving over 354 billion tenges in benefits since the beginning of the year.
The benefits are distributed based on the number of minors or full-time students under the age of 23 in a family. Families with four children are eligible for 16.03 MCI (63,030 tenges) per month, while those with five children receive 20.04 MCI (78,798 tenges). For families with six children, the monthly benefit is 24.05 MCI (94,565 tenges), and for those with seven children, it is 28.06 MCI (110,332 tenges).
Families with eight or more children receive a slightly different arrangement, with 4 MCI (15,728 tenges) paid per additional child. This means that a family with eight children would receive 24.05 MCI (for the first six children) plus 4 MCI for each of the additional two children, totalling 28.05 MCI (110,332 tenges + 31,456 tenges) per month.
In addition to these benefits, mothers who have been awarded certain medals or titles, such as the "Altyn Alqa", "Kumis Alqa", "Heroine Mother", and those awarded the "Mother's Glory" I and II degree orders, also receive monthly benefits. The amount for those awarded the "Altyn Alqa" medal is 7.40 MCI (29,097 tenges), and for those awarded the "Kumis Alqa" medal, it is 6.40 MCI (25,165 tenges).
However, the specific amounts for these benefits in 2026 and the exact increase in pensions and social benefits for citizens of Kazakhstan from the year 2026 were not specified in the provided text. It is worth noting that the search results mainly addressed pension and social policy changes in Germany and did not mention Kazakhstan.
Looking ahead, Kazakhstan plans to allocate 6.8 trillion tenges for pensions and benefits in 2026, but the specific increase for pensions and benefits was not specified in the provided text. This allocation is expected to continue supporting families and individuals in need, ensuring a more secure and prosperous future for all.
