Private sector workers born in July receive today (15) the 2020 base year salary bonus. Caixa Econômica Federal started the payment on February 8 and will continue with the release until March 31, based on the month of birth of beneficiary.
Also on Tuesday, Banco do Brasil released the salary bonus for public sector workers with enrollment in the final 6th year. Payment for this category began on February 15th and continues until March 24th, based on the digit end of server enrollment.
The salary bonus of up to one minimum wage is paid to workers enrolled in the Social Integration Program (PIS) or in the Public Servant Asset Formation Program (Pasep) for at least five years. Those who worked formally for at least 30 days in 2020 receive the allowance now, with an average monthly salary of up to two minimum wages.
The benefit is not paid to domestic workers. This is because the salary bonus requires an employment relationship with a company, not with another individual. Young apprentices are also not entitled.

Caixa informed that the credit will be automatically deposited for those who have a bank account. The other beneficiaries will receive the amounts through Digital Social Savings, which can be moved through the Caixa Tem app.
If it is not possible to open the digital account, the withdrawal can be made with the Citizen Card and password at self-service terminals, lottery units, Caixa Aqui or branches, always according to the payment schedule.
For beneficiaries residing in the municipalities of Bahia, Minas Gerais and Rio de Janeiro in an emergency situation, due to heavy rains, the payment was released on February 8, regardless of birth month
