He Family Base Bonus is a monthly financial aid offered by the Social Security Institute (IPS) in Chile, aimed at supporting families in vulnerable situations. This subsidy is part of the “Securities and Opportunities” program of the Social Protection System, and seeks to provide financial stability to low-income households. Its amount reaches up to $58,000 per month, although the exact value varies depending on family income, and is delivered for a maximum of 24 months with a progressive adjustment that decreases its value.
He subsidy It is designed for families that, in addition to meeting certain vulnerability criteria, participate in State social assistance programs. To apply for the Family Base Bonus, only two basic conditions are required, which facilitates the process for many families looking for additional support to cover their needs. The aid is especially intended for households that are in the most vulnerable 40% of the population, according to the classification established by the government.
To access the Family Base Bonusit is necessary to meet two specific requirements. First of all, the family must be actively participating in Psychosocial Accompaniment (APS) or Socio-Labor Accompaniment (ASL) programs in one of the “Securities and Opportunities” programs, such as “Families”, “Abriendo Caminos”, “Vínculos” or “Streets.” These programs seek to promote inclusion and improve the living conditions of beneficiary families, promoting their long-term self-sufficiency.
The second requirement To apply for the bonus, the household’s per capita income must be less than $45,572. This figure reflects the average monthly amount per person in the household, which allows the IPS to identify families with lower incomes and, therefore, in greater need of financial support. Verification of these requirements is carried out automatically on the 15th of each month, which allows the IPS to evaluate the eligibility of households periodically.
