Overview
- Adults 60 and older are eligible only if they are formally employed through INAPAM’s Vinculación Productiva with companies that grant prestaciones de ley.
- Voluntary activities such as empacado voluntario do not create seniority or labor benefits and therefore do not generate aguinaldo.
- The aguinaldo must be paid before December 20 and equals at least 15 days of salary, with proportional payment for those with less than a year of service.
- Enrollment requires the INAPAM credential, official ID, CURP, proof of address, photographs, completion of an inclusion form, and interviews at state modules.
- Salaries in program placements vary by region—about MXN 9,367 per month in most of the country and higher in the Zona Libre de la Frontera Norte—so the aguinaldo amount depends on each worker’s base pay.
