Launched in February 2022, the Central Bank's Amounts Receivable System, whose first phase lasted until April 16, would open the second phase of consultation on May 2 of this year. Close to the date, however, the Central Bank announced the postponement of the service that has lasted until now. Will a date for the resumption of service be announced soon?

When the second phase began, the postponement was necessary due to the strike by Central Bank employees. The strike began in April and the category first asked for an increase of around 26%. Then the order fell to 13%. 

However, the government had already stipulated that only 5% of adjustment would be granted this year. Thus, the strike ended in July, raising new expectations for the announcement of a new date.

Since then, authorities have focused on keeping demands up to date, as several services were affected throughout the strike, such as the launch of the second stage of the SVR, as well as the distribution of the Focus Bulletin and the IBC-Br, among others. 

After some time, now in the month of September, after the situation had normalized, expectations increased regarding the launch of the second stage of the BC's Receivables System. But so far, there is no specific date for the opening of the consultation. 

The Amounts Receivable System is a tool created and made available by the Central Bank (BC). The tool was created with the aim of helping individuals find out if they have any amount to receive – an amount that has been forgotten – from a banking institution. The system also helps to redeem this amount. 

You know those accounts that were closed and ended up having some money left? That fee incorrectly charged by the bank? Or the amount invested in the consortium that could only be repaid years later, but was forgotten? So, these are the amounts that may be available for withdrawal.

What is known so far about the second stage is that 7 new types of financial services will be included in the system. Since its introduction, the Receivable Values System (SVR) has been helping Brazilians find amounts that were forgotten in bank accounts and other financial institutions. See the new services:

The platform, until now, aggregated five different data on forgotten values:

Another new feature is that the user does not need to access the portal at two different times to check the available funds and request the redemption of money, as was the case previously. 

In the first phase, it was necessary to return to the system on a date defined by the Central Bank according to the calendar to request the transfer. The schedule will no longer exist. It will be possible to do everything in the first consultation.

It is not yet known whether this second phase, like the first, will have a deadline for consultation. The Central Bank only said that anyone who does not have access to the tool will not lose their right to the money. The funds are retained by financial institutions for as long as necessary, waiting for the citizen to request a refund. 

It is estimated that R$ 8 billion will be returned to the population and businesses.
