Title: Early Disbursement of Subsidy Payments Brings Relief to Eligible Families
Introduction
In a move welcomed by many, the Subsidy Targeting Organization announced the early disbursement of the 176th round of monthly subsidy payments for the current Persian month of Mehr. The funds, designated for low-income families, were transferred to beneficiary accounts one day ahead of the scheduled date, ensuring immediate access for millions of citizens.
Accelerated Support for Low-Income Households
According to the official announcement, a total of 11,547 billion Rials was deposited into the accounts of 10,584,352 household heads across the nation classified within the first to third income deciles. While payments for these groups are routinely made on the 25th of each month, the transfer on the 24th provided a positive surprise for recipients. The organization clarified that the deposited amounts were calculated after accounting for any due installments on loans for families who are borrowers.
Widespread National Coverage
The social welfare structure, as defined by the Ministry of Cooperatives, Labour, and Social Welfare, currently categorizes 28,867,854 individuals within the first to third income deciles. The cash subsidies for these citizens are distributed through a network of 28 active banks operating throughout the country, ensuring comprehensive coverage.
Detailed Breakdown of Payments
The subsidy amounts paid to households for the month of Mehr are as follows:
- Single-person household: 400,000 Tomans
- Two-person household: 800,000 Tomans
- Three-person household: 1,200,000 Tomans
- Four-person household: 1,600,000 Tomans
- Five-person household: 2,000,000 Tomans
Upcoming Payments for Other Deciles
The Subsidy Targeting Organization also confirmed that the cash subsidies for households in the fourth to ninth income deciles will be deposited on the 30th of Mehr. For this payment round, the amount has been set at 300,000 Tomans per eligible individual.
This early and scheduled disbursement of financial support underscores the consistent implementation of social welfare policies, providing timely assistance to families across different income levels.
