The proposal aims to provide financial assistance to single mothers, that is, those who take care of the house alone without the help of a partner or spouse. See this article for the requirements and whether you qualify for this benefit.

The Permanent Assistance of R$ 1,200 is a benefit for single mothers in precarious situations, that is, women who take care of the house and children alone. Thus, the matter was discussed by the bill (PL 2,099/20) prepared by former deputy Assis Carvalho (PI). In this way, the amount of R$ 1,200 will be passed on to mothers who are heads of families and have financial difficulties. It is worth noting that people who receive other social security and pension benefits are not eligible for assistance.

Only that people who receive Auxílio Brasil are exempt from the exclusion rule, according to the bill. Because while the permanent aid is being paid, Auxílio Brasil is suspended.

Which women can receive it?

It is worth noting that to receive the aid, the woman must meet the requirements listed below, which are:

• Not have a job with a CLT work card;
• Not be a beneficiary of any social security or assistance program from the National Social Security Institute (INSS);
• Not having received unemployment insurance;
• Do not participate in any income transfer except Auxílio Brasil;
• Be 18 years old or over;
• Not having a partner or spouse;
• Be updated in the system in the Single Registry (CadÚnico);
• It is important to have a monthly income of up to half the minimum wage for a person or family, a total of three minimum wages, currently at R$ 606;
• Have at least one child under 18 under your responsibility.

Is it possible for the aid to be permanent?

The project is still being processed in the committees of the Chamber of Deputies. Therefore, the answer is still no. Once approved, it must still follow the traditional rite of bill sanctioned by the Federal Senate and the Prison of the Republic. If the proposal is approved, we can say that the proposal will receive guidance on registration, values, payments, etc.

However, as CadÚnico is used to select beneficiary mothers, many families can now register in the social database of federal government programs. In other words, this allows single women to enjoy other financial benefits without approving the Permanent Subsidy, which is good news.

Furthermore, the proposal, which is still under discussion in the Chamber of Deputies, received a favorable opinion from the Women's Rights Commission in its latest motion. In other words, approval is awaited from the Social Security and Family, Finance and Taxation, Constitutional and Judiciary and Citizenship Commissions. Only then does the project go to the Federal Senate.
