How to Contest Unauthorized INSS Deductions Using the Meu INSS App

Millions of Brazilians rely on the INSS for social security benefits. Recently, many have reported unauthorized deductions from their payments. The government has launched the Meu INSS app to help beneficiaries contest these deductions. Luiza Tenente, a reporter for g1, demonstrates how to use the app to identify and dispute incorrect charges. "It's simple," explains Tenente, "just download the app, log in, and follow the steps to contest any deductions you don't recognize." The app allows users to review deductions made since 2020 and mark those that are unauthorized. The INSS then has 15 business days to respond. This user-friendly app offers a convenient way for citizens to protect their benefits and ensures transparency in the process. This initiative promotes financial security and empowers individuals to manage their social security benefits effectively.
