In Brazil, the Federal Government’s Single Registry for Social Programs (CadÚnico) is a crucial tool for ensuring access to various social programs. Thus, CadÚnico has recently undergone significant updates and improvements, making it more efficient and accessible to those who need it most.
In short, CadÚnico is an instrument used by the federal government to identify and characterize low-income families in the country. Through it, it is possible to access social programs such as Bolsa Família, Benefício de Prestação Continuada (BPC) and several other benefits. See more details!
Improvements Implemented by the Lula Government
Therefore, during the administration of President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva (PT), CadÚnico was improved to ensure greater accuracy and effectiveness in identifying families in vulnerable situations. Among the improvements implemented, the following stand out:

- Data Update: the process of updating registration information has been simplified, making it more agile and efficient;
- Expanding Coverage: the Lula government worked to increase the scope of CadÚnico, ensuring that more families living in poverty were included in the system;
- Improved Accessibility: measures were adopted to facilitate access to CadÚnico, ensuring that those living in remote areas or having mobility difficulties could register more easily.
Who can register with CadÚnico?
Finally, to register with CadÚnico, the family must meet the following criteria:
- Families with a monthly income of up to half the minimum wage (R$ 706);
- Families with a total income of up to three minimum wages (R$ 4,236);
- Homeless individuals, even without documents.
Finally, the Single Registry, under the management of the Lula government, has undergone significant improvements that aim to improve social assistance in Brazil. Thus, with simplified processes and greater accessibility, more families in vulnerable situations have the opportunity to access social benefits.
