When Gustavo Petro won the elections in Colombia, it was thought that the Solidarity Income would end, since during the electoral campaign, the leader of the Historical Pact proposed to rethink this monetary support for families living in poverty and extreme poverty, and in its place would place a subsidy that is more beneficial for all. This economic aid was raised from the beginning of the pandemic, in the government of Iván Duque, and now it will continue to be paid in September, under a series of changes that took place since May. Check if you are one of the beneficiaries, when they pay it and what are the ways to collect it.
“Solidarity Income was initially designed to operate for three months. Thanks to the Social Investment Law approved by Congress, and sanctioned by President Iván Duque, Social Prosperity will be able to execute the program until 2022. The Social Investment Law increases the coverage of the program, going from 3 million to 4 million 85 thousand households beneficiaries, from March and April 2022 “, indicates the official page of Social Prosperity on Solidarity Income.
