The new retirement rules have been in force since 2019, but they still raise doubts among policyholders. With the entry into force of the so-called social security reform, the country's workers are subject to stricter requirements to claim the benefit paid by the INSS.
Significant changes were made to the minimum age, contribution time and benefit calculation, for example, along with the creation of specific transitional regimes.
In short: In general, it has become more difficult to retire through the INSS.
If you still don't know when you will retire or what you need to do so, we invite you to continue reading.
In this guide, we will present the new procedural rules and give you tips to make it easier for you to leave the job market and take a well-deserved break.
Why does this rule keep changing?
You may have already seen that the pension reform that was approved and promulgated in 2019 brought several changes to Social Security benefits.
Among the various changes, the rules for retirement have also changed.
However, in this content, criteria such as contribution time, minimum age and pension payment calculation will be changed.
However, so that taxpayers are not disadvantaged shortly before the completion of social security, the establishment of the so-called transitional regulation was agreed.
It works like this: With each passing year, the current requirements for granting retirement become more stringent.
Learn about the transition rule
For those who did not have 35 years of contributions (for men) or 30 years of contributions (for women) on November 13, 2019, but who have already worked for a few years, the transitional pension reform regulations will apply.
If these rules (preferably to be checked individually for your specific case) are followed, men do not need to wait until age 65 and women until age 60 to retire.
Consult a specialist for further questions
With the new pension regulations, the requirements for the most important social benefits such as old-age and special pensions have changed.
Thus, with the transitional regulations, taxpayers are gradually introduced to the updated regulations.
If you have specific questions about your case, it is important to seek specialized legal advice.
A social security lawyer is the best option for you to obtain the benefit you want from the INSS in 2022.
