First of all, the Continuous Provision Benefit, also known as BPC, is a Federal Government program.

It enables seniors aged 65 and over and people with disabling disabilities to have access to a minimum wage per month.

This benefit is provided for in LOAS, the Organic Law of Social Assistance. Based on this law, it is possible to offer a fixed income to people who are unable to guarantee their own livelihood.

For the elderly and people with disabilities to have access to this benefit, the family group must have a specific income.

Therefore, each person who lives in the same house as the elderly or disabled person must receive less than ¼ of the minimum wage.

In addition, it is also necessary that the beneficiary is registered in CadÚnico. It is from him that it is possible to receive the BPC.

When meeting the requirements, you can schedule the service through the “Meu INSS” application. It is also possible to make an appointment over the phone, or in person at an INSS agency.

Persons with disabilities must undergo a medical examination. In this way, it is possible to assess the applicant's condition and only then release the benefit.

What diseases qualify for BPC?

The BPC offers a minimum wage for people with any type of disabling disability. This includes long-term physical, mental, intellectual and sensory disabilities.

However, the BPC does not have an official list that specifies the diseases that qualify for the benefit.

As long as your condition prevents you from exercising a paid activity, you are entitled to the benefit.

However, it is still necessary to prove monthly income and keep the registration updated in CadÚnico.

What is the age for the Continued Cash Benefit?

To gain access to the BPC, only elderly people have a minimum age to request it. In this case, it is necessary to be 65 years or older to be able to access the benefit.

In the case of people with a disability, the BPC has no minimum or maximum age. Therefore, anyone who meets the benefit requirements can receive it.

If you believe you are entitled to assistance, applying for inclusion is simple. Do you want to know more details about how to apply for the Continuing Benefit? Then check out the content below!
