The federal government’s projections for the 2022 Budget do not consider a possible reduction in the queue at the National Social Security Institute (INSS). There are currently 1.8 million benefit claims waiting for a response, but the budget proposal sent to Congress does not allow for any leeway in the spending ceiling.
In addition, the budget has a large list awaiting additional resources, such as the inflationary correction of benefits, which has an estimated cost of R$ 19 billion, in addition to the expansion of Bolsa Família and even parliamentary amendments. The information is from the newspaper Estado de São Paulo.

These additional expenses could reach R$ 11 billion in 2022, considering the average value of the benefits that would be given to the population and a gradual reduction in the INSS queue.
In February of this year, the Federal Supreme Court (STF) unanimously ratified an agreement between the INSS and the Federal Public Ministry (MPF) to set deadlines and eliminate the waiting list for INSS benefits. In his vote, Minister Alexandre de Moraes said that the decision is aimed at guaranteeing support for the vulnerable population, but without harming the public administration.
However, the ministries involved in the Budget did not make any official projection of expenditure with the regularization of new INSS benefits. As the pandemic made it possible to suspend some employment contracts, some workers had to work longer than planned in order to retire.
The Estadão claims to have had access to a report of requests awaiting analysis by the INSS requested through the Access to Information Law. At the end of July 2021, there were 1.844 million requests, of which 574.6 thousand were for the Continuous Cash Benefit (BPC) to People with Disabilities (PcD). Retirement claims were 1.15 million – the queue has changed little since then.
