For Bolsa Família beneficiaries, avoiding having their benefits blocked is crucial. The government recently announced new rules that could lead to the blocking or cancellation of benefits if they do not comply. One of the main causes of blocking is outdated data in the Single Registry for Social Programs (CadÚnico).
Therefore, it is essential to keep information up to date, including changes in family composition, address and income. Another common reason for blocking is the lack of justification for absence from elections, something that can be easily avoided by regularizing the electoral situation.
In addition, legal injunctions in the name of the beneficiary, ownership discrepancies and problems with the Federal Revenue Service, such as failure to submit the annual Income Tax return when mandatory, can also result in suspension. Therefore, to avoid these problems, it is important that beneficiaries are aware of these details and act promptly to regularize any pending issues. Therefore, a useful tool is the CPF consultation at the Federal Revenue Service, which is available online and free of charge.
