In Brazil, several actions are being taken to support the population in situations of social and economic vulnerability. Notable programs include Bolsa Família, which helps approximately 20.8 million families with monthly amounts starting at R$1,400, and Vale-Gás, which benefits approximately 5.7 million vulnerable families.

The Vale-Gás program was introduced a few years ago to help Brazilian families buy gas cylinders, an essential item. This was done after an increase in the price of gas, which made access to this vital resource difficult for the poorest segments of the population.
Since then, the program has played an important role in smoothing the household budgets of millions of families across Brazil.

Payment schedule
Unlike Bolsa Família, whose payments are monthly, Vale-Gás follows a different schedule. This is because beneficiary families receive the aid bimonthly, that is, every two months. As a result, the last payment was made in June, and, consequently, there are no transfers scheduled for July.
Clarifications for beneficiaries
It is natural that this change in the schedule causes confusion and concerns among beneficiaries. However, it is essential to clarify that the benefit has not been canceled.

In this way, families who are entitled to Vale-Gás will continue to receive the next installment in their Caixa Tem accounts. However, this transaction will only occur the following month, following the same schedule as Bolsa Família.
Bolsa Família: important details
While waiting for the next payment of Vale-Gás, many families also benefit from the Bolsa Família benefit, which has different amounts according to family characteristics. Thus, the minimum amount is R$$ 600, but it is possible to receive additions such as the Early Childhood Benefit, which varies between R$150 and R$$ 300, and the additional R$$ 50 intended for families with young people up to 17 years old or pregnant women.
