Brazilians deported from the US may receive emergency aid! A proposal in Congress suggests a minimum wage for 12 months for repatriates without a criminal record. The benefit divides opinions and may impact the public budget.
The movement of Brazilians abroad has been a constant in recent decades, whether in search of economic opportunities, security or a new beginning.
However, a growing number of these citizens have faced deportation proceedings, mainly from the United States, leading to financial and social difficulties upon returning to Brazil. Given this scenario, a new legislative proposal seeks to offer support to these people.
Congresswoman Talíria Petrone (RJ), recently appointed leader of the PSOL in the Chamber of Deputies, presented a bill that aims to create the 'Emergency Aid for Forced Returnees', nicknamed the “Repatriates Scholarship”.

According to the text, the benefit will grant a monthly minimum wage for 12 months for deported Brazilians who prove fixed residence in another country and who have not committed crimes under Brazilian law.
What motivated the project?
The proposal comes in a context of significant increase in deportations of Brazilians from the United States, a country that has toughened its immigration policies in recent years.
According to data from the US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), in 2024 more than 20 thousand Brazilians were deported, an increase of 35% compared to the previous year.
Many of these Brazilians arrive back in Brazil without financial resources, without housing and without immediate prospects of reintegration into the job market.
Immigration experts point out that this scenario could generate a significant social impact, increasing unemployment rates and putting pressure on existing social assistance services.
In her justification, the deputy argues that the measure is essential to guarantee support to these citizens in situations of extreme vulnerability.
The idea is to provide a minimum financial basis so that deportees can rebuild their lives in Brazil.
Who would be entitled to the benefit?
The bill establishes some criteria for granting the aid:
- The beneficiary must be Brazilian born or naturalized;
- Must prove fixed residence in another country before deportation;
- He cannot have committed crimes, in accordance with Brazilian laws;
- The request must be made in up to 90 days after the date of repatriation.
The execution of the payment would be the responsibility of the Ministry of Development and Social Assistance, which would define the procedures for proving the required requirements.
Furthermore, the proposal foresees the creation of a national registry of repatriated Brazilians, allowing the government to monitor the situation of these citizens and facilitate their economic reintegration into the country.
Financial impact and political repercussions
The proposal raises debates about the financial impacts on public coffers.
Critics point out that Brazil is already facing difficulties in financing social programs and that a new benefit could increase pressure on the budget.
According to preliminary projections, if the project is approved, the government will need to invest approximately R$ 2,4 billion per year to cover the costs of the benefit.
On the other hand, advocates claim that the measure would help in the socioeconomic reintegration of repatriates, reducing long-term costs of unemployment and social vulnerability.
For economists in favor of the project, aid can be an investment in stabilizing these people, allowing them to get work and reducing the need for other social benefits.
Differences between parliamentarians over the repatriates' allowance
In the political arena, the proposal divides opinions. While left-wing parties defend the creation of the aid as a humanitarian issue, more conservative sectors question the prioritization of the budget for Brazilians who decided to live outside the country.
Congressman Eduardo Bolsonaro (PL-SP), a critic of the proposal, stated on his social media that “The government cannot finance those who tried to circumvent the immigration rules of other countries. Taxpayer money should be invested in those who stayed and work in Brazil.”.
Congresswoman Erika Kokay (PT-DF) defended the proposal, stating that “The aid is not a prize, but rather a right for Brazilians who are returning to their homeland and need minimum support to start over”.
The next steps
The bill still needs to pass through committees in the Chamber of Deputies before being voted on in plenary. If approved, it will go to the Senate and, subsequently, to the President for approval.
So far, according to the website of the Chamber of Deputies, in a consultation carried out by the CPG team, There is no concrete forecast regarding its processing.
The discussion about the “Repatriated Grant” promises to intensify in the coming months, especially in a year of heated debates about social policies and management of public resources.
If approved, the impact of the aid on the lives of deportees and the national economy will be closely monitored by experts and parliamentarians.
Possible consequences of the repatriated scholarship
If the project is approved, the government will need to create a structure to administer the benefit, ensuring that only those eligible receive the aid.
Experts suggest that in addition to cash payments, professional qualification programs are developed to increase the chances of reintegration into the job market.
Another possibility discussed is the creation of agreements between states and municipalities so that these Brazilians can have easier access to temporary housing and health services.
However, the viability of these measures will depend on the available budget and government priorities.
