The Federal Government started paying the PIX Truck Driver and Taxi Driver benefits in August. Both social programs will transfer – until the end of the year – a value of R$ 1,000 each month in order to help workers who are being affected by the current situation due to constantly rising fuel prices.

Is it possible to receive both benefits?
Although social programs are similar and have the same purpose, it is not possible for the same person to receive aid simultaneously. The rationale for this is that they are offered to different groups.
Thus, still at the end of July, the government made a statement in which it stated that the individuals contemplated for receive Taxi Assistance will not be able to access the Truck Driver PIX either, that is, the citizen will have to choose between one of the two. Of course, in the case where he actually performs both functions.
Why can't I receive both aids?
There are no reasons that can prevent the citizen from exercising the professions simultaneously; however, from a social point of view and because it is a project, the two benefits will not be released in this way. The explanation, according to the Ministry of Labor, was that accumulating aid means that fewer people have access to it.
The doubt arose, as it is possible that people with access to the Brazil Aid are also favored with the accession of the gas voucher, however this permission is an exception and does not apply to other programs social. In this way, we can conclude that only the two benefits mentioned can be accumulated.
In addition, it is important to note that the rules for entering all of them are very different. PIX Truck Driver, for example, uses the information offered by the National Land Transport Agency (ANTT) while the information for Taxi Driver Assistance was offered by the city hall of each place.
