According to information from the Central Bank, released this Thursday (7), there are still R$8.53 billion in “forgotten resources” by customers in financial institutions.
Although the deadline for recovering the “forgotten money” ended on October 16, 2024, the National Treasury has not yet incorporated the amount.
In addition to the 30 days after the deadline for submitting appeals, the government gave another six months of time for customers to claim the amounts.

Only after the end of this period will the amount be incorporated into the National Treasury, complying with the fiscal maneuver that aims to help the government compensate for the payroll tax reduction.
“Only after the end of this second period, and if there is no manifestation from those who are entitled to the deposits, the amounts will be incorporated into the National Treasury”, said the Ministry of Finance to the G1this Thursday..
According to the ministry, the fact that the government extended the deadline for contesting the amounts would demonstrate that the appropriation of the money is not a confiscation.
Individuals and legal entities can check if they have “forgotten money” in the Brazilian Central Bank’s (BC) Receivable Values System (SVR).
Values
According to the Central Bank, in the month of September, Brazilians withdrew R$395 million that were “forgotten” in financial institutions.
According to the BC statement, individuals they still have R$6.64 billion to rescue, while companies they can still withdraw R$1.89 billion.
Most of the “forgotten money” is in banks (R$5.06 billion), followed by consortium administrators (R$2.27 billion).
Of the forgotten total, 63.52% of the values are between zero and R$10 and only 1.83% exceed R$1,000.
Rescue
The redemption deadline came into effect on September 16th, when President Lula (PT) sanctioned Law No. 14,973/2024, which provides for the gradual repayment of the payroll of 17 sectors of the economy and municipalities until the end of 2024 .
The project to confiscate “forgotten money” was voted on in the Chamber of Deputies after an impasse with the BC, which sent a technical note to parliamentarians warning about the risks of the part of the text that authorizes the appropriation of forgotten amounts in financial institutions to help the government to compensate for the exemption.
In the Senate, the project had as rapporteur the government leader, Jaques Wagner, from the PT. The project authorizes the National Treasury to treat these amounts as primary revenue, which will artificially improve the results of public accounts.
