The National Social Security Administration (Anses) in Argentina announced that on February 9, 2026, beneficiaries of the Universal Child Allowance (AUH) whose ID numbers end with 0 will receive their monthly payments. This schedule is in line with the organization’s payment calendar, which disburses social benefits throughout the month based on the last digit of recipients' ID numbers.

For the month of February, the AUH payments are adjusted by a percentage of 2.85%, reflecting the inflation figures recorded in December, which stood at 2.8%. This adjustment aims to keep the assistance in line with the rising cost of living and is calculated using the inflation rates with two decimal places. This monthly update is crucial for families relying on this support, especially in times of economic uncertainty.

Such timely payments are essential for many Argentine families, highlighting the government's effort to provide consistent financial support amid various challenges. The AUH program is a significant component of the social security system, especially for low-income households, ensuring that children receive necessary assistance for their upbringing and education.
