The government will pay four monthly installments of the aid. The values vary between R $ 150 and R $ 375, depending on the profile of the recipient. The average amount of the benefit will be R $ 250.
“On the 4th or 5th the payment of four more installments of emergency aid begins,” Bolsonaro said during a live broadcast on a social network.
The National Congress authorized the federal government to make new emergency aid payments with the approval of a constitutional amendment. Then two interim measures paved the way for up to R $ 44 billion in budget payments.

By mentioning emergency aid, Bolsonaro again criticized the distancing policies taken to reduce the contagion caused by the new coronavirus, which caused the Covid-19.
“[O auxílio emergencial] It is already the largest social program in the world to serve exactly those who have been affected by the ‘stay at home, close everything’ policy, “said the president.
This Wednesday (24), in a hearing in the Chamber, the Minister of Citizenship, João Roma, affirmed that the value of the new emergency aid “is far from ideal.”
“The value of the new emergency aid is far from what it would be ideal for those who are experiencing difficulties, difficulties to come and go, difficulties to get out and earn a living for their family, going through hardships. So, it is a moment of great cooperation and serenity ”, said the minister, whose portfolio is in charge of paying the aid.
The president also affirmed that the government should reissue the Emergency Benefit for the Preservation of Employment and Income, which compensates part of the loss of wages of workers who sign agreements with employers to reduce the workload and wages during the pandemic. .
In addition, Bolsonaro said, there will be a new round of the National Micro and Small Business Support Program (Pronampe), created to provide a special line of credit to micro and small entrepreneurs during the crisis caused by Covid-19.
Bolsonaro also defended the measures adopted by the government, such as the postponement for three months of the payments of the Simples Nacional, a simplified tax system created to facilitate the collection of contributions from micro and medium-sized companies. The three deferred installments will be paid during the six months following the period in which the payment was suspended.
“After the third month, in the fourth, you will have six months to pay what you did not receive. We hope that until then the economy returns and the ‘lockdown’ policies are mitigated or extinguished. It is what we expect ”, declared Bolsonaro.
