In December 2024, the (INSS) benefit waiting line reached a new record, with more than 2 million pending requirements. This number represents the highest level ever registered during government management of. Among the requests, the main social security stock corresponds to just over 1 million, followed by 408 thousand care benefits, 317 thousand requirements in requirement with the insured and 302 thousand repeated requests. The increase is significant compared to November, when just over 1.9 million orders were registered.
The dissemination of December data occurred only in April, through the INSS Transparency Portal. In addition to the increase in the number of requirements, the waiting time to grant the benefits also rose from 39 days in November to 42 days in December. This period is approaching the legal limit of 45 days, despite the expectation of a reduction to 30 days until June, as announced by the president of the INSS. However, the deadline has increased, contrary to the established goals. The reporting team tried to contact the INSS in search of clarification, but did not get official response or positioning.
