Which represents 382,000 payments requested through the FGTS (Service Time Guarantee Fund) application. Payment is available through this channel as a way of unifying service.

It applies to anyone who worked between 1971 and 1988 with a formal contract, whether as a public employee or in a private company.

According to data from Caixa to Valor Econômico, 340 thousand payments were made, worth R$493 million, until July 31 of this year. According to the bank, at least 10.6 million people are entitled to a refund, but have not requested a withdrawal. At the end of August, R$24.6 billion was still available.

In addition to workers who worked in the years mentioned, the heirs of those who died but did not receive the benefit will be able to collect the amounts. The application is also made in the FGTS application, but under the option “PIS/PASEP – Death of a worker”.
