Warnings will be sent to 9 million affected beneficiaries, who must indicate whether or not they have authorized the collection to request the return
This Tuesday (13), about 9 million retirees and pensioners will receive a notification of the on discounts related to associations and unions in their benefits. The notices will be made available through the app or my INSS website, which requires the user to be registered. For more information, policyholders can contact at 135.
From Wednesday (14), retirees who identify improper discounts may request refund through my INSS. This return applies to discounted values between March 2020 and March 2025. The INSS is considering the possibility of using Post Office to facilitate the service to beneficiaries.
Gilberto Waller Júnior, president of the INSS, detailed that the consultation about discounts will be held in two stages. First, the insured will be informed about the existence of discounts, and then on Wednesday, they may check the amount to be returned. It is important to note that the refund process will not be automatic; The retiree will need to declare that he has not authorized the debts.
If it is confirmed that there was no authorization for discounts, the refund will be processed. The entities responsible for discounts must prove affiliation with the INSS; Otherwise, they will have to reimburse the INSS, which, in turn, will make the payment directly to the retired account.
Retirees are oriented not to share personal information in suspicious calls or links, as the INSS will not make contacts by these means. It is essential that beneficiaries are aware and protect their data to avoid fraud.
