Overview

Clarifications and Updates

• The updates clarify the approved organizations that can accept applications, including various cultural and community centers across Venezuela, ensuring residents know exactly where to submit their requests for:
  • health aid
  • food aid
  • medication aid
• A correction also adjusts the documentation needed from self-employed workers:
  • changing the certification year from 2024 to 2025.

Purpose and Significance
