The Continuous Benefit Payment (BPC) is a vital assistance for many Brazilians. In January 2024, BPC beneficiaries are eagerly awaiting the next payment, especially after the recent increase in the benefit amount. This increase has brought a wave of expectation and relief to many who depend on this financial support.
The BPC payment schedule is a crucial aspect for beneficiaries as it allows them to plan their finances and prepare for the month. With payments set to begin on January 25 and extending until February 7, it is essential to be aware of the specific dates to avoid any inconvenience.

Important dates for BPC beneficiaries
The calendar of payment The BPC payment schedule is based on the final number of the benefit, specifically the second-to-last digit before the digit. For beneficiaries who receive up to one minimum wage, the dates are distributed as follows: beneficiaries with a number ending in 1 receive it on January 25, with a number ending in 2 on January 26, and so on, until the number ending in 0, who receives it on February 7. This schedule helps ensure that all beneficiaries receive their payments in an orderly and efficient manner.
Eligibility for benefit in 2024
To be eligible for BPC in 2024, the requirements include being 65 years of age or older, or having a proven disability for those under 65. In addition, it is necessary to be Brazilian born or naturalized, or to have Portuguese nationality with residence in Brazil.
Another important criterion is to have been registered in the Single Registry for Social Programs of the Federal Government (CadÚnico) for at least two years, and to have a family income of up to 1/4 of the minimum wage per person. It is worth noting that to receive BPC, the user does not need to have contributed to the INSS. However, this welfare benefit does not grant a 13th salary and does not provide survivor's pension to dependents.
