Vale Gás Amounts
The Vale Gás amount varies according to the state and city due to differences in cooking gas prices. It is important to emphasize that Vale Gás does not fully cover the cost of a gas cylinder, but rather part of that amount, serving as a supplement to ease families’ expenses.
Eligibility Rules
The Vale Gás program is intended for low-income families registered with the Cadastro Único para Programas Sociais do Governo Federal (CadÚnico). Families must meet certain criteria to be eligible, including:
– Be within the income range stipulated by the program;
– Not be a beneficiary of other social programs that already include gas assistance;
– Reside in areas covered by the program.
How to Apply for Vale Gás
Applying for Vale Gás is a simple process, but it requires attention:
1. Register with CadÚnico: If you are not yet registered, go to the Social Assistance Reference Center (CRAS) closest to your residence and request registration. You will need documents such as your ID, CPF, voter registration card, and proof of residence.
2. Apply for the benefit: Once registered with CadÚnico, you can apply for Vale Gás. This can be done online or at a Vale Gás program service center in your city.
3. Wait for the assessment: After the application, the government will assess whether your family meets the requirements for the benefit. If approved, the family will begin receiving Vale Gás.
