This March, according to the data of the Ministry of Development and Social Assistance, 1 million 479 thousand 915 families were withdrawn from the social income transfer program. With these cuts, Bolsa Família now has R$471 million available to cover new beneficiaries.

However, Diaz noted that the departure of 1.4 million beneficiaries does not represent the final number of irregular registrations. “The exact number is determined only by conclusion [da revisão do cadastro]. But there are very strong indications that at least another 1 million are not compliant.”
