The INSS Announced That Selected Beneficiaries Will Receive Early Payments Before Christmas
Retirees, pensioners, and beneficiaries of the INSS (National Social Security Institute) will begin receiving the December payment this Friday (20).
Those who earn up to a minimum wage (R$ 1,412) will have the amounts deposited by January 8. Those who receive above this amount must wait for the start of the next year, with payments made from January 2 to 8.
How Do Payment Dates Work?
The calendar is defined by the last digit of the benefit card, disregarding the check digit. This month marks the last priority payment for beneficiaries affected by the rains in Rio Grande do Sul, with deposits on the first day of the schedule.

How to Check the Benefit Statement?
Beneficiaries can access the statement directly through the Meu INSS website or app. On the portal, it is necessary to log in and click on the “Payment Statement” service. The platform provides all the details about the payments.
Those who prefer phone service can call Central 135. During the call, it is necessary to provide the CPF and confirm personal data. The service operates from Monday to Saturday, from 7 AM to 10 PM.
These tools were developed to ensure greater accessibility and security for beneficiaries, reducing lines at agencies and the risk of fraud.
