Find out who is still entitled to emergency aid in 2022

In the last two years, more than R$ 300 billion was paid for the various installments of emergency aid, which helps with the expenses of millions of Brazilians. Recently there have been rumors about the return of this benefit for families in situation of social vulnerability, where it was announced that the federal government will be able to offer a benefit of R$ 200 to beneficiaries of the Auxílio Brasil.

In the case of payments of up to R$ 200, the proposal will still be included in PEC 16/2022, with the aim of reducing the impact of inflation on Brazilians’ pockets. However, it must still pass through the Senate and approval from President Jair Bolsonaro. On the other hand, there is already a retroactive emergency aid for single parents and heads of household. With a single installment of R$ 3,000, the objective is to help those who take care of their children alone, without a partner.

Retroactive aid amount

To find out if you are entitled to extra payments, you need to visit the dataprev website, where you can consult your data by filling in some information, such as full name, CPF and date of birth. Thus, the Ministry of Citizenship will assess whether the head of the family really does not have a spouse and at least one minor under her care.

When it comes to values, it will depend on the amount of installments that these parents received between April and August 2020:

• 5 months of benefit: amount of R$ 3 thousand;
• 4 months of benefit: amount of R$ 2.4 thousand;
• 3 months of benefit: amount of R$ 1.8 thousand;
• 2 months of benefit: amount of R$ 1.2 thousand;
• 1 month of benefit: value of BRL 600.

There are more than 1.3 million single parents who will have access to retroactive assistance, with around 500 thousand Brazilians remaining to receive this year, while female heads of household were entitled to double the benefit at the beginning of the program, in 2020.
