In addition to the main benefit, there are other complementary benefits paid according to the profiles of the families, such as the School Sports Aid, the Junior Scientific Initiation Scholarship and the Rural Productive Inclusion Aid.
Goal
Auxílio Brasil is aimed at families in situations of economic and social vulnerability. In order to be qualified, they must meet eligibility criteria, such as presenting income per capita [por cabeça] classified as being in poverty or extreme poverty, having the data updated in the Cadastro Único in the last 24 months and not having divergent information between those declared in the registry and that of other federal databases.
The selection is done automatically, considering the poverty estimate, the number of families served in each municipality and the annual budget limit of Auxílio Brasil.
