PIS/PASEP salary bonus

Therefore, the PIS/PASEP salary bonus had been suspended in 2021, as its funds were allocated to the payment of the Emergency Program for Maintaining Employment and Income, known as BEm.

However, the benefit will return starting in January 2022.

Therefore, the beneficiaries are workers who have a formal employment contract and who worked at least 30 days in the base year.

The government expects to reach up to 23 million Brazilians with this benefit.

It's important to remember that the minimum wage is the maximum amount that can be received, and this amount is proportional to the number of months worked during the year.

To be eligible, you must meet the following requirements:

  • To be registered with PIS/PASEP for at least five years.;
  • To have worked with a formal employment contract for at least 30 days in 2020;

Therefore, to receive the benefit, it is necessary to register through the FGTS app, and the request must be made by the last day of the month of your birthday.

Gas Assistance

Very well, the government recently approved the gas subsidy benefit.

Thus, the program provides for the payment of half the value of a 13 kg gas cylinder, and families will receive the benefit every two months.

Thus, the government estimates that 5.5 million people may be eligible for the benefit.

And to be eligible for the program, you need to:

  • Being registered in the Single Registry (CadÚnico);
  • To have a per capita income of up to half the minimum wage;
  • To be a beneficiary of the Continuous Benefit Payment Program (BPC).

14th salary from INSS (Brazilian Social Security Institute)

So, the INSS 14th salary benefit has not yet been implemented by the Federal Government.

But there is already a bill in progress, to be approved later this year.

The project stipulates a maximum payment of two minimum wages, and it is expected to be paid in March of 2022 and 2023.

Therefore, pay attention to find out if the project has been approved, what the requirements are to participate, and who will be entitled to this additional benefit.

Thus, beneficiaries should receive up to R$ 3,000.00, but the government has not yet announced whether it will be paid in a single installment or in installments.
