Citizens who have never contributed to INSS you are entitled to a benefit of Social Security. This is a help from federal government, in the amount of a minimum wage (currently in the amount of R $ 1,100), for people from low-income families.
Those who are entitled to this benefit are people over 65 years of age or, of any age, if they have a long-term disability.
In addition to age or disability, the person interested in the benefit must also prove that the family is unable to support this elderly or disabled person, which may be of a mental, physical, intellectual or sensory nature.
See some answered questions below.
Is it like retirement?
Exactly that, but it is a benefit of the Organic Law of Social Assistance (LOAS) known as BPC – Continuous Provision Benefit.
The difference is that pensions have the thirteenth and the BPC does not.
How does the INSS assess whether the person belongs to a low-income family?
The evaluation is done through a social worker. Therefore, it is necessary that the interested party takes in the INSS, the day of the presentation of the application, a social study carried out by a social worker.
How to get a social study?
Just look for a social worker at CRAS, which is the Reference Center for Social Assistance.
Every city has at least one CRAS (find the CRAS for your city).
The family must be registered and updated in the Unique Registry of Social Programs of the Federal Government (CadÚnico) before submitting an application to the INSS unit.
In what situations can the INSS deny the payment of this benefit?
In only three situations. When the person is not of the minimum age, when they do not prove their disability or when they understand that the family is not low income.
And what to do when the interested party does not obtain the benefit?
If the refusal is because the disability has not been proven, the expertise carried out by Social Security should be questioned.
If it is denied due to family income, care must be taken to point out all the expenses that the family has with the disabled or elderly person, because the INSS does not always take this into account.
Once the benefit begins to be paid, can it be canceled?
Always when there is a change in any of the requirements that gave rise to the payment.
The INSS has a body called COINP – General Coordination of Social Security Intelligence that continues to search for eggs to cancel benefits.
I saw a case where the person was traveling abroad and the benefit was cut. There was one who had a truck in his name. In another case, the son opened a business in his mother’s name and she lost the profit. There are scams, but there are also many innocent people.
Can social media show that these benefits are reduced?
We often post something that we are not on Facebook, Instagram, in short, on the Internet. And this can be used by the INSS to prove itself against you. And then the person may not be able to prove that a pig was not snouted. And then you can run out of the benefit.
