The Secretariat of Well-being began the staggered distribution of the Pension for the Well-being of Older Adults for the January-February 2026 bimonthly period. From January 19 to 23, beneficiaries whose first surname starts with M, N, Ñ, O, P, Q, or R can withdraw the 6,400 pesos deposited in their Banco del Bienestar Card. This support, which increased by 200 pesos from the previous year, adjusts annually for inflation as a constitutional right.
