Therefore, the benefit is equal to the current minimum wage. Caixa Econômica Federal will deposit the PIS payment for private-sector workers into a checking or savings account. However, those without such accounts may receive it through Caixa Tem. Banco do Brasil will deposit the amount for public servants.
Workers can also withdraw the salary bonus at lottery outlets and ATMs using the Social Card until December 28, the final date for withdrawal.
Workers born from January to October have already received their payments via Pix, which began on February 15. The amount released tomorrow will be the final installment of the salary bonus for those born in November and December or those whose Pasep number ends in 8 or 9.
How does PIS/Pasep work?
PIS/Pasep is a benefit consisting of a salary bonus intended for public-sector (Pasep) and private-sector (PIS) employees. To be eligible, individuals must have received up to two minimum monthly wages in 2021 and have been registered with PIS or Pasep for at least five years.
Thus, it is estimated that 23 million Brazilians will receive this benefit. However, domestic employees, rural workers, urban workers employed by individuals, and workers employed by individuals treated as legal entities are not entitled to the bonus.
