Neighboring city of Belo Horizonte has properties starting at R$ 139,000 with 90 m² and a price per square meter much lower than the capital, even concentrating automotive, petrochemical, and logistics hubs.
The data shows that the resources remain distributed among individuals and companies with amounts still pending refund by financial institutions.
The update was announced by the System of Amounts to Receive, SVR, based on figures from the Central Bank. The survey also shows how much has already been redeemed and how many beneficiaries can still request a refund.
Most Beneficiaries of Forgotten Money Have up to R$ 10 to Receive
According to the BC data, most beneficiaries of the forgotten money fall within the range of R$ 0.00 to R$ 10. In total, around 40.6 million people have amounts within this interval.
On the other end, only 1.1 million bank clients have more than R$ 1,000 forgotten in their accounts. The numbers indicate a high concentration of small amounts among eligible beneficiaries.
This breakdown helps to shape the profile of the amounts still available in the system. Although the total exceeds R$ 10 billion, most people have small amounts to check and receive.
Central Bank System Has Already Returned R$ 13.756 Billion to Beneficiaries
The SVR has already returned R$ 13.756 billion to 37.7 million clients of financial institutions. The total reflects the volume of resources that has already been returned to holders since the system began operating.
Of this amount, nearly R$ 10 billion was refunded to 33.7 million individual benefits. In the case of legal entities, another R$ 3.6 million was allocated to 3.9 million accounts.
The data reinforces that forgotten money continues to be released as beneficiaries check the system and complete their requests. At the same time, the balance still available remains high among individuals and companies.
How to Check and Request the Redemption of Forgotten Money in the System
The first step to receive is to check the amount on the Central Bank website with CPF and date of birth. For companies, the inquiry must be made with CNPJ and date of incorporation.
After the initial inquiry, the user needs to access the amounts to receive system with a gov.br account at the silver or gold level. Two-step verification is also required to unlock access to the request.
In the next step, it is necessary to enter the amounts to receive section, read the presented information, and accept the acknowledgement term. Only after that will the system release detailed information about the available amount.
Steps Show Amount, Source of Funding, and Refund Timeframe
When checking the data on the system screen, the beneficiary can see the amount to receive, the name of the responsible institution, and contact information. The origin of the amount and other details related to the available resource also appear.
After this verification, the request can be made using one of the Pix keys of the beneficiary.
The system advises that personal data should be provided and the protocol number kept, if necessary.
According to the given step-by-step instructions, the amount should be returned within 12 days. Thus, the procedure includes inquiry, identification of the resource, formal request, and a defined timeframe for refund by the institutions.
