Caixa Econômica Federal starts paying, this Tuesday (11), the Auxílio Brasil in the minimum amount of R$ 600 together with the installment of the Auxílio Gás, which this month will be of R$ 112. The payment schedule in October was anticipated by the federal government to be completed before the second round of the presidential election, on the 30th.
This month, 5.9 million families that receive Auxílio Brasil will also be entitled to the installment of Auxílio Gás and must withdraw the amount of R$ 712.
Deposits are made according to the end of the NIS (Social Identification Number) and go until October 25th. The original calendar provided for deposits between the 18th and 31st of October. There will be no payment this Wednesday (12), the day on which the holiday of Nossa Senhora Aparecida is celebrated.
According to the Ministry of Citizenship, Auxílio Brasil will reach 21.1 million families in October, after the inclusion of 480 thousand new beneficiaries in relation to the month of September.
The amount of R$ 600 is temporary and is confirmed until December 2022. The increase in Auxílio Brasil was one of the main bets of President Jair Bolsonaro (PL) to try to improve his popularity ratings among low-income voters.
However, the expansion of Auxílio Brasil failed to reverse the trend of PT votes among the poorest in the first round.
In another attempt to improve performance in the second round, Bolsonaro announced that he intends to grant the thirteenth payment of Auxílio Brasil to female heads of households from 2023. Currently, the group accounts for 80% of the program’s beneficiaries.
Government assessment improves among families served
A Datafolha survey released this Saturday (8) indicates that the Bolsonaro government’s assessment has improved among the program’s beneficiaries.
According to the survey, 31% of voters who receive the benefit consider the current government to be great or good, compared to 27% last week, at the end of the first round.
Despite the improvement in the approval ratings of the Bolsonaro government, Lula appears in first in the voting intentions among the beneficiaries of Auxílio Brasil. According to Datafolha, 56% of voters in this group say they would vote for the PT candidate, while 37% would choose Bolsonaro. Those who intend to cancel or vote blank represent 5%; the undecided 2%.
