The Gas Aid for June has already been processed; families eligible for assistance are now anticipating the disbursement of payments in August.
The amounts for Gas Aid are not set in stone, indicating that there may be slight fluctuations in each payout, and the forthcoming deposits in Caixa Tem pledge increased sums for specific family categories.
The government details regarding the value of the August installment or any potential additional payments have not yet been revealed.
Nevertheless, families receiving gas aid in conjunction with Bolsa Família through Caixa Tem will once again experience larger installment deposits, contingent on their family composition.
Recently, Bolsa Família reached its highest installment with the release of an extra R$ 50.
Consequently, individuals eligible for both the program’s extras and Gas Aid will receive a greater amount in August compared to this month’s deposit.
Who qualifies for Gas Aid?
It’s important to note that this assistance program supports individuals deemed to have low income in acquiring gas cylinders every 60 days.
Through this aid, qualifying families receive an amount equivalent to one cylinder, based on the average values of a standard 13 kg gas canister.
The voucher is provided to families registered in the CadÚnico with a per-person family income equal to or less than half of a minimum wage.
It also includes families residing in the same household receiving the BPC.
Hence, the assistance is disbursed to the head of the family registered with the CadÚnico.
In the case of families registered through the BPC, the transfer is made to the Legal Guardian.
