This Wednesday (31), around 6.1 million taxpayers who submitted their Personal Income Tax Return will receive the third of the five refund batches for 2024. The batch also includes residual refunds from previous years and includes around 54 thousand taxpayers from Rio Grande do Sul.
The Federal Revenue Service will disburse R$8.5 billion to 6,091,572 taxpayers. Payment will be made throughout the day, into the account or Pix key of the Individual Taxpayer Registry (CPF) type informed in the Income Tax return.
Almost all of the amount, the Tax Authority reported, will go to taxpayers with priority for reimbursement. Because of the floods in Rio Grande do Sulthis year Rio Grande do Sul taxpayers were included in the priority list.
Regarding this priority list, the majority, with 5,711,130 taxpayers, informed the Pix key of the Individual Taxpayer Registry (CPF) type in the Income Tax return or used the pre-filled declaration. Since last year, the Pix key information gives priority in receiving.
Next, there are 172,719 taxpayers who did not provide their Pix key and do not fit into any of the legal priority categories. This is the first batch to include non-priority taxpayers.
Elderly
There are also 95,040 taxpayers between the ages of 60 and 79. In fourth place are 54,241 taxpayers residing in Rio Grande do Sul. In fifth place are 34,014 taxpayers whose main source of income is teaching. The remaining taxpayers are 14,756 seniors over the age of 80 and 9,672 taxpayers with some physical or mental disability or serious illness.
Taxpayers who want to know whether they are included in the batch can make the inquiry at Federal Revenue page on the internet. Just click on My Income Tax and then on the Check Refund button. You can also check it on the Federal Revenue app for tablets and smartphones.
If the taxpayer is not on the list, he/she must enter the Virtual Taxpayer Service Center (e-CAC) and take the statement extract. If there is a pending issue, he can send a rectified statement and wait for the next batches of the fine mesh.
If, for any reason, the refund is not deposited into the account stated in the declaration, as in the case of a deactivated account, the amounts will remain available for withdrawal for up to one year at Banco do Brasil.
In this case, the citizen may schedule the credit in any bank account in his/her name, through BB Portal or by calling the bank’s Customer Service Center on 4004-0001 (capital cities), 0800-729-0001 (other locations) and 0800-729-0088 (special telephone number exclusively for the hearing impaired).
If the taxpayer does not receive the refund after one year, he/she must request the amount on the e-CAC Portal. Upon accessing the page, the citizen must access the Declarations and Statements menu, click on My Income Tax and then on the Request unredeemed refund in the banking network field.
