All the beneficiaries of direct aid for Castilians and Leonese abroad who are in conditions of special need live in Cuba.

The regional government published in the Regional Official Gazette last Wednesday the 21st the list of beneficiaries of this benefit, aimed at “procuring coverage of basic needs” for those “who are in a situation of extreme need or precariousness.” It shows the 344 applicants who will receive 349.25 euros, but only this Monday, in a press release from the Junta de Castilla y León, it has been revealed that all the dealers have residence on the Island.

“These aids consist of a direct economic benefit, of non-periodic, individual perception and of a social and assistance nature, intended for Castilians and Leonese abroad who are in a situation of need due to lack of income or necessary income to cover their needs. basic subsistence, in accordance with the socioeconomic reality of the country of residence”, said the adviser to the Presidency, Jesús Julio Carnero.

Of these, 119 set the reference location in León, 111 in Zamora, 33 in Burgos, 32 in Salamanca, 16 in Valladolid, 13 in Palencia, 8 in Ávila, 7 in Soria and 5 in Segovia.

The aid is part of a regional plan -and, in principle, not incompatible with state aid for Spaniards abroad– which has been running for several years and is aimed at financially supporting Spaniards residing outside the country and who have established a municipality in Castilla y León as a reference for their registration in the Register of Spaniards Resident Abroad (PERE). The Board has 120,000 euros for this aid and received 476 applications, without specifying which countries they come from, but it does say that the 344 who obtained it currently live in Cuba.

Of these, 119 set the reference location in León, 111 in Zamora, 33 in Burgos, 32 in Salamanca, 16 in Valladolid, 13 in Palencia, 8 in Ávila, 7 in Soria and 5 in Segovia. At the beginning of this year, there were 183,676 Castilians and Leonese registered in the PERE, of which 114,556 are in American countries and 9,712 in Cuba.

To receive one of these aids, related to the year 2021 and whose registration period was between July 7 and August 31, it was necessary that the income of that year for any concept of the family unit was not higher than the minimum level of subsistence established in the rulewhich in the case of Cuba were 3,492 euros per year or the equivalent, established at 106,254 pesos.

In addition, neither the applicant nor any member of the family unit could have patrimonial assets with values ​​higher than those established, with the exception of habitually used housing.

Income cannot exceed the minimum subsistence level established in the norm, which in the case of Cuba was 3,492 euros per year or the equivalent, established at 106,254 pesos.

Meanwhile, it was also an exclusion criterion to have received the same aid last year, while for beneficiaries between 2015 and 2019, they could access in case there was money left over after the grant to new applicants, which has not happened .

On the other hand, the Board also announced the concession of 15,000 euros in favor of the Association of Castilian and Leonese Societies in Cuba, whose purpose is “to finance the expenses derived from the acquisition and distribution of food and other basic necessities, as well as supplies for protection and hygiene, which make it possible to alleviate the situation of special need and lack of resources of Castilians and Leon residents in Cuba derived from the degradation of socio-economic and sanitary conditions”, which the regional government attributes to the pandemic.

The Association of Castilian and Leonese Societies in Cuba is the only federation of Castilian and Leonese residents that exists on the island, affirms the press release, which adds that “it has the necessary experience and has demonstrated its competence to channel and materialize the actions of support and attention to Castilians and Leon residents in Cuba”.
