Advancing INSS Contributions for Early Retirement: Is It Possible?

Find out whether it is possible to accelerate your INSS contributions to retire earlier. Details below in the article.

Are you aiming for early retirement and wondering whether you can advance your INSS contributions to achieve this goal? We researched this question and have the answer.

Unfortunately, INSS does not allow contributions to be advanced in order to obtain the desired earlier retirement. The institution accepts payments only within the due dates, without allowing contributions for future periods.

But don't lose hope! There are options to speed up your retirement. To add missing periods to your contribution record, you need to contact INSS directly and provide the appropriate documentation.

Ways to speed up your retirement

There are some circumstances that can help extend your contribution period and bring you closer to your much-desired retirement:

1. Unregistered employment: if you had an informal job, were self-employed, or worked for an employer who did not register you, it is possible to prove this period through receipts, bank statements, or payslips showing the periods worked.
2. Late INSS payments: if there were periods when you did not make contributions, whether due to unemployment or another reason, you can regularize the situation by making retroactive contribution payments, along with applicable financial charges, interest and fines.
3. Including periods of study at technical schools: if you attended technical or vocational schools and had a paid employment relationship, it may be possible to include these periods so they count toward your contribution period. This is particularly relevant for those who completed paid internships or courses involving the practice of a profession.
