The Caixa Tem app brought forward the disbursement of Bolsa Família payments for many beneficiaries this Saturday (22). Those who were worried because they thought they would only be able to access the funds next Monday (24) can rejoice, as the Federal Government once again brought forward the deposit of the July installment of this social benefit.
According to Bolsa Família rules, benefit transfers are made during the final ten business days of each month. The release takes place according to the last digit of users' Social Identification Number (NIS). Thus, a new group gains access to the funds in their accounts each business day.

In fact, the Federal Government has been making this advance payment in recent months through Caixa Tem. Caixa Econômica Federal is responsible for making Bolsa Família payments to families covered by the program.
Beneficiaries can visit Caixa branches to access the funds. However, if they prefer to carry out financial transactions without leaving home, they simply need to download and access the Caixa Tem app. In short, the app allows transfers between accounts, including via PIX, as well as the payment of purchases and bills.

Bolsa Família amount may exceed R$ 1,000
All Bolsa Família beneficiaries receive at least R$ 600 every month. However, in recent months, the Federal Government has begun paying additional benefits to recipients, increasing the monthly payout amount.
Find out what the additional Bolsa Família benefits are:
Early Childhood Benefit: starting in March 2023, the government began paying R$ 150 per child up to six years old. In short, the benefit is cumulative, meaning that if the family has more than one child in this age group, all of them will be entitled to the benefit amount.
Family Variable Benefit: ensures the payment of an additional R$ 50 to children and young people aged seven to 18, as well as to pregnant and breastfeeding women who are family members.
According to the Bolsa Família rules, each benefit is intended for a specific group of people. Therefore, families can accumulate all of them.
For example, a family consisting of two adults and three children aged 2, 5, and 6 will receive R$ 1,050 in the month. This is because the family receives the minimum payment of R$ 600, plus R$ 150 for each child up to six years old (R$ 150 x 3 = R$ 450). In total, the amount is R$ 1,050 (R$ 600 + R$ 450).

In addition, if the family has more individuals eligible for other additional benefits, the monthly payment amount will be even higher. To find out how much each family will receive, simply access the Caixa Tem app and check the benefit statement, which indicates whether the payment has been released or blocked, as well as the amount to be received that month.
