If she went on maternity leave at 7 months, she worked officially when she should be paid

Documents for the assignment of maternity benefits are considered no later than three working days from the date of their receipt (7 days after the opening of sick leave).

Funds are deposited into the employer's account within a few banking days after financing.

After the employer has received the funds from the PFU, he must pay the maternity allowance to his employee in the nearest period after the date of the allowance, established for the payment of wages.

If the funds continue to fail, you can go to court. For this, you will need to submit an application with three attachments:

• a letter of appeal to the relevant body with a request to pay the funds;

• letter-reply from the institution - refusal or formal reason for non-payment of funds;

pre-trial claim - a request to pay the money, otherwise you will go to court.
