Beneficiaries of the Universal Child Allowance with a DNI ending in 8 will receive their payments on February 23, 2026, as per the national social security agency's announcement.
The National Administration of Social Security (Anses) in Argentina revealed the payment calendar for the Universal Child Allowance (AUH) for February 2026, specifying that beneficiaries whose National ID (DNI) ends with the digit 8 will collect their payments on Monday, February 23, 2026. This announcement comes as part of the regular scheduling of social benefits provided by Anses, which maintains a structured approach to ensure timely disbursement to eligible citizens.
In February, social benefits, including the AUH, will see an increase of 2.85%. This increase is in line with the inflation rate recorded in December, which was reported at 2.8%. Such adjustments to the social benefits are typically calculated based on the percentage increases in prices, ensuring that the allowances correspond to the economic realities faced by families receiving assistance. This means that beneficiaries can expect their support to marginally stretch further amid rising living costs.
As the economic landscape in Argentina remains challenging, the timely adjustments to the AUH are vital for families relying on this essential financial support. The ongoing practice of indexing social benefits to inflation demonstrates the government's attempts to mitigate the impact of economic fluctuations on the most vulnerable segments of society, ensuring that the needs of children and families are adequately addressed during these difficult times.
