More than 22 million will have PIS/Pasep allowance as of the 15th; see if you will receive

Workers can now consult to find out if they will receive the PIS and Pasep allowance in 2023, which begins to be paid by banks on February 15.

The query is made through the gov.br website and the Work Card application. See the step by step below.

The salary bonus paid in 2023 is related to the work done in 2021. To be entitled, you must have formally worked for at least 30 days that year and have received an average monthly remuneration of up to two minimum wages, among other requirements.

According to the Ministry of Labor and Employment, allowances will be paid to 22.9 million workers entitled to receive the benefit, with 20.4 million entitled to PIS and another 2.5 million entitled to Pasep, totaling about R$ 22 billion.

The payment schedule follows the dates approved by Codefat (Deliberative Council of the Workers’ Support Fund) in December, according to Sheet anticipated.

The worker will be able to receive from R$ 109 to R$ 1,302, since the amount of the allowance varies according to the number of months worked in 2021.
