The updated list of workers who will be able to withdraw the allowance was made available this last Wednesday (5). Those born between January and June or who have the last digit of the Pasep registration number between 0 and 3 will be able to receive the salary bonus from April 17th.
Workers born in the months of the second half of the year or who have different PIS/Pasep numbers than those mentioned above will receive payment according to the original schedule.
Including the payments of the salary bonus of the Social Integration Program (PIS) and the Formation of Public Servant Assets (Pasep) began to be carried out on the last 15th of February.
A new data processing
According to the Ministry of Labor and Employment, Dataprev analyzed again 2.7 million labor relations that showed inconsistencies in the information provided by employers.
In addition, the folder also informed that the state-owned company identified 1,383,694 million workers eligible to receive the salary bonus already in this third batch of payments, which will take place this month.
In order to include workers with data conflicts, such as multiple PIS/Pasep registrations or discrepancies identified by the Federal Revenue Service, Dataprev carried out a new analysis.
The information provided by companies on e-Social, together with the traditional Annual Social Information (Rais), are used as sources for granting the salary bonus since the year past.
Also according to the Ministry of Labor and Employment, this change improved the identification of discrepancies in the Federal Revenue and made the procedure for granting or not the allowance more efficient.
This is due to the fact that data correction by employers or workers occurs automatically, based on a comparison of information entered into the system.
If any worker wishes to appeal the information provided by Dataprev, he may do so through the service channels of the Ministry of Labor and Employment, the units of the Regional Labor Superintendencies or by e-mail, sending a message to [email protected] (the worker must replace the abbreviation “uf” with the abbreviation of the state in which resides).
How does the salary allowance work?
The salary allowance consists of a payment of up to one minimum wage that is intended for workers who are members of the Social Integration Program (PIS) or the Civil Servant Asset Formation Program (Pasep).
To be entitled to the benefit, these workers need to be registered for at least five years. Those who formally worked for at least 30 days in 2021, having received an average monthly remuneration of up to two minimum wages, may receive the allowance in 2023.
In the case of workers registered with Pasep, including civil servants, military personnel and employees of state-owned companies, the The allowance is released by Banco do Brasil, on the same dates as for PIS workers, who receive it through Caixa Econômica Federal.
In both cases, the money will be available for withdrawal until December 28th. If the deadline expires, the funds will be returned to government coffers.
