Brazil INSS reforms: benefits, pensions, and new leave laws

Overview

By late July 2026 the INSS had reduced its backlog and introduced several benefit reforms. A weekend mutirão on 11‑12 July processed roughly 17,800 claims, lowering the national backlog to about 391 000 requests – a 68 % drop since November 2025 – and cutting average exam wait time to around 20 days. Law 15.415/2026 requires maternity benefits to be approved and paid within 30 days, with provisional payments if missed, and removes the contribution‑carence rule when coverage at birth, adoption or custody is proven. The Chamber of Deputies’ Women’s Rights Commission approved a 5 % pension increase per child for female retirees, up to 15 % for three children. The Superior Labor Court limited seizure of salaries, pensions and benefits in labor lawsuits to 50 % of net monthly income, guaranteeing at least one minimum wage. The Federal Court of Accounts upheld a dual‑ceiling rule separating constitutional caps for permanent posts from commissioned remuneration. The Superior Tribunal de Justiça mandated banks refund payroll‑deduction loans lacking clear interest disclosures and suspended more than 11 000 cases. The INSS tightened payroll‑deductible loan rules, automatically blocking new offers after a benefit is granted and tightening authorization criteria. The Supreme Federal Court will decide whether workers contributing below the minimum wage retain insured status, while the Superior Court of Justice reviews abusive interest rates. Permanent‑disability retirees may now request a 25 % pension increase with proof of continuous third‑person dependence, and new retirees receive a proportional year‑end 13th‑salary bonus. Further actions in July expanded the scope of INSS benefits. A Minas Gerais court ordered the institute to grant auxílio‑acidente to a teacher with chronic dysphonia, confirming eligibility based on partial loss of work capacity.
