Check the Dates to Get Your Money Back Safely
The National Institute of Social Security (INSS) confirmed, this Thursday (07/10/2025), the detailed calendar for the return of funds.
These amounts refer to undue discounts identified in pensions and retirement benefits.
According to the agency, the action aims to correct irregular charges that have affected thousands of beneficiaries across the country since 2023.
Thus, with this measure, the INSS seeks to restore confidence in the social security system.
The initiative ensures the rights of insured individuals, as well as complying with the determination of the Federal Court of Accounts (TCU).
Find Out Who Is Entitled and How to Receive
According to the president of INSS, Alessandro Stefanutto, those who had irregular discounts can request the refund immediately.
It is essential to check the payment statement for the amounts deducted without authorization.
This way, the insured will be able to know if they are part of the group of beneficiaries included in the schedule.
In addition, the refund may be made automatically for those who confirm their personal information.
Confirmation can occur through Meu INSS or through service at agencies.
Therefore, updating information is essential to avoid delays.
Official Calendar Starts Payments Still in July
According to the schedule published this Thursday, payments will start on July 25, 2025.
Thus, the first beneficiaries will receive the amounts directly in the same account where the monthly benefit deposit occurs.
According to the Ministry of Social Security, the expectation is to complete all refunds by the end of August 2025.
Furthermore, the INSS stated that each beneficiary can check the exact date on the official website or through the Meu INSS app.
This way, everyone will have the opportunity to plan the receipt in advance.

Fraud Cases Led to New Security Rules
The issue of undue discounts gained attention in 2023, when the INSS identified fraud in forced affiliations to class entities.
Thus, to avoid new problems, the institute implemented stricter rules for any payroll deductions.
Since 2024, express authorization with registration in an integrated system has been mandatory.
According to Stefanutto, these changes strengthen the protection of retirees, who have historically been targets of scams.
Therefore, anyone noticing any irregularity should report it immediately through channel 135 or the official website.
Guidance to Avoid Falling for Scams
The Ministry of Social Security warns that no INSS employee contacts individuals by phone requesting passwords or banking information.
Thus, all reimbursement procedures occur exclusively through official channels.
In addition, it is important to monitor monthly statements and keep registration information updated.
This way, beneficiaries avoid fraud and ensure the correct receipt of funds.
For more information, insured individuals can consult guidance on the Gov.br portal or in physical agencies.
