To help families financially during the pandemic, the Federal Government has promoted several social programs in order to increase the income of these Brazilians. In this sense, Auxílio Brasil was created in order to meet the demand of the former Bolsa Família, and the gas voucher, to help with the purchase of one of the most important items at home, which is the gas cylinder.
With that, according to data released by the government, in February of that year, approximately 18 million Brazilians received money from at least one of these benefits. However, some beneficiaries of Auxílio Brasil did not receive the value of the gas voucher.
Thus, although it is possible for a person to be entitled to participate in these programs, the law does not oblige the government to pay for both simultaneously. This is because they are two aids that work independently, that is, the citizen who receives the value of the Brazil Aid does not necessarily need to receive the gas voucher.
Although one of the government's strategies is to pay the gas voucher preferentially for those who are enrolled in the Auxílio Brasil, there is no law that obliges you to do this.
Families with monthly per capita income between R$ 105 and R$ 210 are entitled to assistance. This happens because they are in the group of families in situations of extreme poverty and poverty. In addition, those who are in emancipation can also enjoy this benefit.
To apply for the gas voucher, the family must be enrolled in CadÚnico and have a monthly per capita family income of up to R$1,212, that is, less than or equal to one minimum wage. Or else, have a member of the family participating in the Benefit of Continued Benefit (BPC).
