It is confirmed! The National Institute of Social Security (INSS) has already increased the margin on the payroll deductible loan. Now, the measure goes from 30% to 35% of the benefit amount. The standard was published in the Official Gazette (DOU), on October 8. The measure comes amid the new coronavirus pandemic.
According to the government text, the measure will remain in force until December 31, the date on which the state of public calamity ends. In addition to the margin of up to 35% of the payroll, the Government maintained the possibility of adding 5 percentage points through the payroll credit card. Thus, policyholders can compromise up to 40% of their benefits (previously it was 35%).

- 1.80% for the benefit discount loan
- 2.70% for credit card
