Previous payments 

It is important to note that this benefit covers more than 5.4 million families throughout Brazil. The granting occurs every two months, with the last one being in October. In this context, there is great expectation regarding the amount to be made available in this next installment.

As usual, the value of the installment is calculated considering 100% of the national average price of a 13kg gas cylinder. Therefore, in December, this value is estimated at R$ 104.

How to avoid the suspension of Gas Aid?

To prevent interruption of the Gas Aid, it is essential to keep the information in the Single Registry up to date. This registry, administered by the federal government, is essential because it provides the data necessary to define who is entitled to the benefit and to make its payment.

Therefore, failure to update information may result in the suspension of the benefit. It is important, therefore, to update the registration whenever there are significant changes, such as changes in income, family structure or other relevant details.
