An interim report is a regular report in Form 4-FSS; it is filled out when the commercial insurer has made all insurance payments in large quantities. For example, the policyholder paid several sick leaves or paid maternity leave to the fund. The total amount of contributions paid must not exceed the amount to be reimbursed.
If the amount is greater, then the money can be returned back from the fund ahead of schedule, without waiting for the reporting period. All expenses incurred during the reporting quarter are reimbursed on a regular quarter basis. In this case, an interim report is not needed.
It turns out that an interim report is drawn up when the employer pays amounts greater than what was paid to employees during the period of incapacity.
In this article we will look at an example of an interim report to the Social Insurance Fund and how to fill it out.
