Caixa releases September Bolsa Família payment

Caixa Econômica Federal is releasing this Wednesday, September 23, the September installment of Bolsa Família for beneficiaries whose Social Identification Number (NIS) ends in 5. The payment follows the monthly schedule running through the 30th.

September Bolsa Família payment

A total of 19.29 million families nationwide are receiving the benefit, with an average amount of R$ 678,18. The minimum installment remains at R$ 600, as established for the month.

Who receives it this Wednesday

The release criteria are based on the last digit of the NIS; therefore, beneficiaries with a final digit of 5 have their credit made available on this date. The statement and installment status can be checked via the Bolsa Família and Caixa Tem apps, as well as the Caixa Citizen Portal.

Additional benefits that make up the allowance

In addition to the basic amount, the program includes three add-ons: R$ 50 for mothers of babies up to six months old (Variable Family Nursing Benefit), R$ 50 for pregnant women and children aged 7 to 18, and R$ 150 for children up to six years old. These additions are added to the aforementioned average amount.

Adjustment planned for October

The announced adjustment will take effect starting in October, raising the minimum from R$ 600 to R$ 691. The change will be automatic, with no need for beneficiaries to request it, and will also affect the additional amounts according to family composition.

Methods for withdrawal and customer service

Withdrawals can be made at Caixa branches and ATMs, lottery outlets, Caixa Aqui correspondents, and—for those who use digital social savings—via the Caixa Tem app. Questions regarding payments and withdrawals can be answered by calling 111, while questions about registration and rules are handled by Disque Social 121.
