Los estudiantes de nivel básico que están inscritos en Mi Beca para Empezar recibirán un apoyo único para la compra de útiles escolares y uniformes

Overview

  • The one-time Mi Beca para Empezar awards range from MXN 970 for early preschoolers to MXN 1,180 for sixth grade and lower secondary students, with MXN 1,150 for CAM Laboral and adult secondary beneficiaries.
  • Eligible students must be enrolled in public basic education across Mexico City’s 16 alcaldías, have updated their program registration by June 30, and hold an active program card or access to the Obtén Más app.
  • Mi Beca deposits will run from August 5 to 15 on a staggered schedule tied to the first letter of each student’s surname to prevent payment bottlenecks.
  • Argentina’s Decree 523/2025, published July 31, confirms a 1.6% August pension increase based on June CPI and establishes a one-time ARS 70,000 bonus for retirees receiving the minimum benefit.
  • ANSES will disburse August pensions and bonuses by DNI termination between August 8 and 28, paying the full ARS 70,000 to minimum-benefit recipients and proportional top-ups to those just above the floor.
