The Government is analyzing how the third phase of the payment of the ANSES Emergency Family Income (IFE). So far the certainty is that this new batch is paid The most vulnerable sectors to face the coronavirus pandemic will be more limited. If it remains as reported so far, half of the 9 million who are collecting the second bonus today, they will stop collecting it.
This is so because the next time the benefit will be concentrated only in the areas where the quarantine is the hardest. This is the It him AMBA and Chaco, plus other provinces that are under study, such as Córdoba and Río Negro. These regions concentrate 50% of the people who have so far collected the $ 10,000 bonus. In fact, of the total beneficiaries, 40% are in the AMBA.
In addition to defining which regions will have third payment of the IFE, the other issue under debate is the amount. In the first two runs it was $ 10,000. Now, as it emerged this weekend, they analyze take advantage of the “tax savings” of bilge to half the beneficiaries to stretch it to $12.000. It would be a leap from 20% in a period when inflation touched the 5%.

As for tax savings, it would go from $ 90 billion per batch a $ 45,000 million if it is limited to half the people and the amount is kept at $ 10,000, or $ 54 billion if you take it to $ 12,000.
Last Friday, when he announced the quarantine extension Until July 17, President Alberto Fernández confirmed that the IFE will have a third round, although limited to AMBA and Chaco. This put on alert several provinces that began to move so as not to lose the benefit. Among them, Jujuy, where the deputy José Luis Martiarena, from the Frente de Todos, anticipated that he initiated negotiations with the Chief of Staff, Santiago Cafiero, so that the northern province is not excluded.

Throughout the country the 60% of households perceive the IFE. In the north, this proportion is higher, reaching 80% in provinces such as Chaco, Santiago del Estero and Formosa.
The final definition of the IFE will take several days. Until now only half of the 9 million collected the second round. Payment for this phase will last until July 13. This time, Anses emphasized that all people have to charge through a Bank account. For this, it made agreements with the banks so that the beneficiaries open free accounts to receive the IFE.

There are 3 million people that in the first round of IFE they charged through the Argentine Post or other points for not having a bank account enabled. In the last weeks about 2 million completed the process to inform the CBU to Anses. There are about a million left to complete this procedure and they must do so in the coming days to be able to receive the second phase.
All this opens a window to finish defining the format of the third IFE. In the case of the Work and Production Assistance (ATP) program, which was also renewed for the third time in a more limited edition, there were gears and reverse gears in official announcements.

Through ATP, the state covers up to 50% of the salary of 2 million private workers. When phase 3 began to be designed, the Government wanted to exclude companies more than 800 employees, and to the sectors that even being in the critical zones, like the AMBA, came working without restrictions. Finally ATP 3 was made official last week and does not set limits on the number of employees. It concentrates the benefit in the AMBA, with a lower contribution for the companies of the interior, but without differentiating between the sectors that work to the full of those that have obstacles. The final format of IFE 3 still has a long way to go.
