Did Sisfoh classify your home as not poor, but is it? This is what you can do in Peru, via Midis

The Ministry of Development and Social Inclusion (MIDIS) manages the household focusing system (Sisfoh), a fundamental tool to classify the population according to their Socioeconomic situation. This initiative seeks to ensure that state aid, as well as free social programs and services, are efficiently assigned to those who really need them.

Although some people review their status and are not classified in the system as’pooror in ‘Extreme poverty‘, It is important that those who feel that their information does not reflect their current situation follow certain steps. Next, we tell you what measures can be taken to correctly update the owner’s data.

What can be done if the SISFOH classified your home as not poor, but it is?

Households have the option of requesting a socio -economic reevaluation in the local registration unit (ULE) of the municipality corresponding to the place of residence of the owner. This application can lead to a change in the Socioeconomic classification (CSE) current or, failing that, to its confirmation. In case you want to make additional consultations, you can communicate to the phone (01) 631 80 00 Annexes: 1750, 1756, 1777 and 1780, Monday through Friday from 8:30 am to 5:30 pm or write to email sisfoh@midis.gob.pe

It should be remembered that the MIDIS has the authority to modify the socioeconomic classification of households, so it is based on updated data from various administrative databases. This information is provided regularly by different entities of the State. As a result, it is possible that the CSE of a home adjusts when receiving more recent data on its situation.

What are the conditions during the evaluation of the socioeconomic classification?

The socioeconomic classification evaluates the information of the usual residents of the home (occupation, studies, etc.) and the information of the characteristics of the dwelling (Housing quality, services you have, goods they possess, etc). Also, the MIDIS collects specific information that helps determine the CSE:

• Home information consulted in administrative databases provided by various state institutions. Currently it is reviewed: household income: Players (public income) SUNAT (private income) and Light consumption (electricity).
• The information provided directly by a home and collected representative through instruments such as the S100 application form, the R200 format and the Single Socio -Economic Form (FSU).

What are the benefits of classifying the home within the sisfoh?

Households will have the opportunity to access a variety of benefits offered by the State. Programs As scholarship 18 and pension 65 are aimed at providing support to those in unfavorable conditions. Next, some of these benefits are presented:

• Pension 65: It gives a pension to adults over 65 years in extreme poverty.
