The Bolsa Família payment schedule began on October 18, meaning most families have already received this month's payment. Thus, this Friday (27), beneficiaries with NIS ending in 8 should receive the installment.
It is worth noting that October also included the benefit of Gas Aid, which follows the same payment dates. Therefore, see below which Bolsa Família benefits are available and check the complete schedule.

New additional amount
In October, beneficiaries received a new feature: an extra amount of R$ 50 for mothers of six-month-old babies. It is worth noting that this is not the only additional payment; there are others such as:
- BPI (Early Childhood Benefit): guarantees an extra amount of R$ 150 per child between zero and seven years old;
- BVF (Family Variable Benefit): an additional R$ for pregnant women, children and adolescents between 7 and 18 years old;
- BRC (Citizenship Income Benefit): R$ 142 for each person in the family;
- BCO (Complementary Benefit): intended for families whose total benefits do not reach R$ 600;
- BET (Extraordinary Transition Benefit): used in specific cases where no beneficiary receives less than they received under the program.
In addition, some families had access to the payment installment in advance. Thus, all families in the Amazon region and the southern part of the country that had a state of emergency declared by the government could receive it.
In the case of the Amazon region, families suffered from a severe drought, while beneficiaries in the south suffered the impacts of a cyclone.
