- BET (Extraordinary Transition Benefit): used in specific cases where no beneficiary receives less than they received under the previous program.
Who can receive Bolsa Família?
This is a question many people have; to receive the amount of program families need to meet certain health and education requirements. Therefore, school attendance is mandatory for children and adolescents between 4 and 17 years old, as is prenatal care for pregnant women.
In addition, another requirement is nutritional monitoring for children up to 7 years old and following the national vaccination schedule.
