The National Institute of Social Security (INSS) is studying the use of biometric control equipment in public transport systems so that retirees, pensioners and other beneficiaries of federal aid can prove they are alive. “We are coordinating with the Transport and Mobility Department of the Federal District (DF) so that one of our insureds, when passing through a turnstile [de ônibus ou metrô] where there is biometric identification, make your proof of life”, revealed the president of the institute, Alessandro Stefanutto, this Wednesday morning (19). The proposal, still under analysis, would be extended to other locations in the future. The objective, according to Stefanutto, would be to make proof of life less bureaucratic, expanding the ways for policyholders to prove they are alive to continue receiving social security benefits. This year, the proof of life started to be made by the INSS itself, through the crossing of information recorded in databases of the institute itself or other federal bodies and entities. In early February, the INSS published an ordinance detailing the procedures considered valid for attesting that the beneficiary is alive. 2 – Carrying out a payroll loan, carried out by biometric recognition; 3 – Face-to-face service at INSS agencies and partner entities or institutions, provided that biometric recognition is carried out and also in the public health system; 4 – Vaccination; 5 – Registration or re-registration in transit or public security bodies; 6 – Updates in CadÚnico 7 – Voting in elections; 8 – Passport issue/renewal; driver’s license; work card; military enlistment; identity card (RG) or other official documents that require the physical presence of the user or biometric recognition; 9 – Receipt of payment of benefit with biometric recognition; 10 -Income Tax Return, as holder or dependent.
