For older adults who are in the program, but do not have a card due to the lack of banks in their places of residence, the dispersal of support will be made in cash.
In this case, people must be aware of the call that the Secretary of Well-being makes in their communities.
Cash delivery will take place from Monday, January 9 to Sunday, February 5.
The distribution of the Welfare pension in cash will be made for almost a month.
