The second phase of the operation to pay Reconstruction Aid for flood victims in Rio Grande do Sul begins this Monday, the 27th.
The government will provide a benefit of R$5,100, in a single installment via Pix, to families with homes directly affected by the floods in the state. The forecast is to serve approximately 240 thousand people.
Last week, city halls began registering families. Starting this week, people identified by municipalities as “family responsible” will be able to enter the aid system, with the Gov.br password, and check whether the family is included in the registry sent by the city hall.

The third and final phase will be the payment made by Caixa Econômica Federal. The government expects to make the first payments in May.
See questions and answers about the benefit below.
Who can receive the aid?
Homeless or homeless families (who were forced to abandon their homes), residents in areas that were completely flooded or damaged by floods or landslides in municipalities that had an emergency or public calamity situation recognized by the federal government until May 15th.
To date, 369 municipalities in Rio Grande do Sul, which have had a state of public calamity or emergency recognized by the National Civil Defense, are covered by the benefit. See the list on the official website Reconstruction Aid.
How do I prove my data?
The data provided by the city hall will be cross-referenced with other government databases to validate the address. If the system identifies any inconsistencies, the city hall will be informed so that it can make the necessary corrections with the families.
How will payment be made?
The aid of R$5,100, in a single installment, will be paid via Pix and limited to one member per family.
Caixa Econômica Federal will receive the list of eligible names and will make the deposit into the account. Families don’t need to worry about opening bank accounts. Caixa will identify whether the person responsible already has an account, savings or current, and will automatically grant the credit. If the beneficiary does not have an account, the bank will be responsible for opening a Digital Social Savings Account to receive the Reconstruction Aid, which can be used via the Caixa Tem application.
Do I need to be accountable?
There is no accountability. Each family decides the best way to use the resource.
I am entitled, I meet the requirements, but my name is not included, what do I do?
Contact your city hall to send your family’s data to the federal government.
Do businesses that were flooded and suffered losses have the right?
No. Reconstruction Aid is intended for displaced or homeless families, residing in flooded areas or areas damaged by floods or landslides, as a result of climate events in RS.
Who is entitled to assistance? The tenant or the owner?
The assistance is for residents, regardless of whose house it is. If the tenant lives in a house that is in a flooded area or damaged by floods or landslides, the assistance is for them.
Do people who lived alone have the right?
Yes. A family is considered a unit made up of one or more individuals who contribute to the income or have their expenses met by the family unit and who live in the same household.
I am a beneficiary of the Bolsa Família Program. Can I receive Reconstruction Aid?
Yes. The benefit is aimed at families who had to leave their homes and seek shelter or go to the homes of friends and relatives due to the rain and lost part or all of their possessions.
I am receiving unemployment benefits. Can I receive Aid?
Yes. If you live in an affected area informed by the city hall, had to leave your home and lost property due to the rain, you may receive reconstruction assistance.
Do I need to be on the Single Registry to receive Reconstruction Aid?
No. To receive the aid, the city hall simply needs to inform the data of displaced or homeless families in the affected areas, with a proven full address.
