Applications for INSS benefits
There are currently around 1.6 million benefit claims in the queue awaiting analysis by the INSS, most of which are for retirement benefits. The agency says it has reviewed more requests than expected, aiming to fulfill the promise to zero demands by the end of the year.
If we take an average, there are 751 thousand requests against 674 thousand requests. However, the pace of analyzes carried out is not enough to make the queue move forward and “disengage”. In addition to the INSS delays, many taxpayers also make a series of mistakes that can make the process even more unfeasible.
Therefore, it is necessary to be aware of the main mistakes made by policyholders when carrying out requests for allowances, in order to avoid them and contribute to the movement of analyzes of requests for benefits.
