Payments will follow the traditional scheduling logic to avoid overloading the banking system, dividing beneficiaries into different groups. Para private sector workers linked to PIS, the release order takes into account the month of birth, while public servants registered with PASEP receive according to the final digit of their registration.

The maximum value of the benefit will follow the minimum wage in force in 2026, set at R$1,621, guaranteeing monetary correction for eligible workers. Consultation of individual details and confirmation of the right to withdraw can now be carried out through the federal government’s digital channels.

Essential requirements for withdrawal

To guarantee access to the resource, the citizen must be registered in the PIS/PASEP program for at least five years, guaranteeing the necessary seniority in the system.

It is also necessary to have carried out remunerated activity for a legal entity for at least 30 days during the base year 2024, whether these days are consecutive or interspersed.

Another fundamental requirement is to have received an average remuneration of up to two monthly minimum wages during the period worked, focusing the benefit on lower-income workers.

Payment dynamics by Caixa

Caixa Econômica Federal manages PIS transfers intended for employees of private companies, using the month of birth as a criterion for releasing lots. The money is available in digital accounts on the Caixa Tem application or can be transferred with Cartão Cidadão, following the dates stipulated by the official calendar to organize the flow of withdrawals.

If the worker does not withdraw within the deadline, which generally extends until the end of December, the resources return to Fundo from Amparo to Trabalhador (FAT). It is vital to follow the schedule, as missing the deadline means it will be impossible to access the amount for that specific year later.

Specific rules for public servants

In the case of PASEP, aimed exclusively at federal, state and municipal public servants, financial management is the responsibility of Banco of Brasil. The payment methodology differs from the private sector, being based on the final digit of the server’s registration number in the program, and not on the month of birth. Aqueles who already have a checking or savings account at the financial institution usually receive credit automatically on the scheduled date, which speeds up the process. Para For non-account holders, it is possible to transfer the amounts via TED to an account held by the same holder at another banking institution, using the self-service terminals or the bank’s official portal.

Calculation of the amount receivable

The value of the benefit is strictly proportional to the number of months worked in 2024, with each month of service equivalent to 1/12 of the minimum wage in force on the date of payment.

With the national floor updated to R$1,621, only those who formally worked during the 12 months of the base year will be entitled to the full withdrawal, while shorter periods generate fractional amounts.

Query and data verification channels

Checking eligibility and exact amounts can be done quickly using the Carteira de Trabalho Digital application, available for smartphones.

The Gov.br portal also offers a logged in area where it is possible to check detailed information about the worker’s registration status and allowance.

It is crucial that beneficiaries consult their data in advance to identify possible discrepancies in the information sent by employers in RAIS.

The telephone call centers for Caixa and Banco and Brasil remain active to answer specific questions about the calendar and possible blockages.
