Continuous Cash Benefit (BPC): Who Qualifies and What You Get

Learn if you qualify for monthly cash payments if you are elderly or living with a disability and have a low family income.

The Continuous Cash Benefit (BPC) provides monthly financial support to elderly individuals or people with disabilities who meet specific income requirements.

Who it's for

This benefit is for people who are at least 65 years old or people living with a disability, provided that the family income falls below a certain low-income threshold.

What you get

You receive a monthly payment equal to one minimum wage.

What it costs you

There is no direct fee to apply, but you must provide official documentation proving your age or disability, as well as evidence of your family's low income level.

The catch to know

It is important to understand that this is a social assistance benefit, not a pension. This means it does not include a 13th-month salary payment.

How to apply

  • Gather your personal identification and proof of residence.
  • Collect documents that prove your age, disability status, or low family income.
  • Submit your application through the official government social security channels.
