If you recently received your Banco del Bienestar card and have pending Bienestar Scholarship payments, there is a new disbursement date you should keep in mind.
The Government of Mexico reported that students in this situation will receive their funds between Monday, August 24, and Friday, August 28, 2026.
The deposit will not necessarily arrive on the same day for all beneficiaries, as the payments will be made gradually over those five days.
The information was released by Julio León, National Coordinator of Bienestar Scholarships, who explained that this disbursement is aimed at those who recently received their Banco del Bienestar card and still have pending funds.
When will Bienestar Scholarship pending payments be deposited?
Pending payments will be deposited from Monday, August 24, to Friday, August 28, 2026.
The disbursement will take place during that period, so beneficiaries should keep an eye on their Banco del Bienestar card balance.
Not all deposits will arrive on the same day. The date on which the money appears will depend on the schedule corresponding to each student.
Therefore, if the payment does not yet appear at the start of the period, this does not necessarily mean there is a problem with the deposit.
Who will receive the Bienestar Scholarship payment from August 24 to 28?
This disbursement is aimed at students who recently received their Banco del Bienestar card and have pending payments corresponding to any of the following programs:
- Beca Rita Cetina: estudiantes de primaria y secundaria.
- Beca Benito Juárez: estudiantes de educación media superior.
- Beca Jóvenes Escribiendo el Futuro: estudiantes de educación superior.
The key requirement for this disbursement is to be among the beneficiaries who recently received their card and still have pending funds.
How much will be deposited for Bienestar Scholarships?
The amount each student receives will depend on their particular situation and the payments they have pending.
In some cases, the deposit may include more than one accumulated payment, so not all beneficiaries will receive the same amount of money.
For this reason, the amount must be verified according to the corresponding scholarship and the pending payments registered for each student.
What happens if I have already received my Banco del Bienestar card?
If you recently received your Banco del Bienestar card and have pending payments for your scholarship, you must keep an eye on your balance between August 24 and 28.
Having the card is important because this is the means by which Bienestar Scholarship resources are delivered directly.
Beneficiaries do not need to assume that all deposits will appear on the first day of the period, as the disbursement will be gradual.
How do I know if my Bienestar Scholarship has been deposited?
The main recommendation for those waiting for a pending payment is to periodically check their Banco del Bienestar card balance during the established period.
If the deposit does not appear immediately on August 24, it is necessary to consider that the funds may arrive on any of the days between August 24 and 28.
Additionally, if the student has more than one pending payment, the deposit could include accumulated funds.
Which scholarships are included in this payment?
The Bienestar Scholarships covered in this disbursement are:
Rita Cetina Scholarship
The program is aimed at basic education students. This disbursement includes primary and secondary school beneficiaries who recently received their card and have pending funds.
Benito Juárez Scholarship
The disbursement also includes upper secondary education students who have pending payments and recently received their Banco del Bienestar card.
Jóvenes Escribiendo el Futuro

The Government of Mexico points out that the delivery is carried out without intermediaries.
