This week the INSS (National Institute of Social Security) began to notify 1.7 million policyholders by letter that their benefits have been reviewed and that they need to update documents.
The beneficiary who does not respond within 60 days of receiving the letter, the payment will be suspended. If after the period has elapsed, the beneficiary spends 30 days without responding to the institute, the benefit is no longer paid definitively.
What is review?
In September, the INSS began issuing convocation letters, called “notice of requirement,” to beneficiaries with some type of inconsistent registration data. According to the INSS, the review is related to registry issues.
Still, according to the INSS, this review is seeing all kinds of benefits.
What do I do if I receive this letter?
The INSS informs in the letter that the insured must send a scanned copy of some documents of the holder of the benefit, the lawyer or legal representative, through the website or application My INSS. Check what the documents are:
- CPF
- RG
- Birth or marriage certificate
- Voter title
- Work Portfolio
In the case of a death pension, the documents of the deceased insured and dependents. must also be submitted. The letter model can be consulted on the INSS website.
