The Federal Revenue Service opens, this Friday (23), at 10 am, the consultation for the fourth batch of refunds of the Individual Income Tax (IRPF) 2024. Payment will be made on August 30 for 5,347,441 taxpayers.
In this batch, the total value of refunds is more than R$6.8 billion. This batch also includes residual refunds from previous years, from taxpayers who were caught in the tax net and settled their outstanding debts with the Tax Authorities.
Of the total amount, R$469.1 million will be allocated to priority taxpayers: 15,077 seniors over 80 years of age; 84,659 aged between 60 and 79 years; 7,168 taxpayers with some physical or mental disability or serious illness; and 27,372 taxpayers whose main source of income is teaching.
There are also 261,019 taxpayers without legal priority, but who will receive this batch because they used the pre-filled declaration or chose to receive the refund via Pix. 4,904,908 non-priority taxpayers were also included. Finally, 47,238 refunds from taxpayers prioritized due to the state of emergency declared in Rio Grande do Sul.
To find out if the declaration has been released, the taxpayer must access the IRS website, click on “My Income Tax” and then on “Check Refund”. It is also possible to check on the IRS app tablets and smartphones.
If the taxpayer is not on the list, he/she must enter the Virtual Taxpayer Service Center (e-CAC) and obtain the statement extract. If there is any pending matter, you can send the amended statement, correcting the incorrect information, and wait for the next batches of the fine mesh.
How to redeem
The refund is paid directly to the bank account provided by the taxpayer in the tax return, either directly or by indicating a Pix code. If, for some reason, the credit is not made – if, for example, the account was deactivated or there was an error in the bank details provided – the amounts will be available for withdrawal for up to one year at Banco do Brasil.
In this case, the citizen can reschedule the credit of the amounts, in his/her name, by BB Portal or by calling the BB Relationship 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 amount of their refund within one year, they must request the amount through the e-CAC Portal, accessing the “Declarations and Statements” menu and selecting “My Income Tax”. Then, they must click on the field “Request unredeemed refund in the banking network”.
