More than 20 million Brazilians have already found forgotten money in financial institutions since the resumption of the SVR (Values Receivable System). The Central Bank’s balance sheet considers the searches carried out until 6 pm this Friday (18).
So far, 96.8 million inquiries have been made to CPFs and CNPJs. Most of them by individuals, with 94.3 million. Of this total, 20.3 million found balance receivable, while 74 million are not entitled.
Among legal entities, there were almost 2.5 million searches, of which 249 thousand with balance and 2.25 million without. Altogether, 78.8% did not find forgotten money in this first phase of consultations with the BC system.
The monetary authority estimates that there are about BRL 8 billion of forgotten resources and, in a first phase of withdrawals, it foresees the return of BRL 3.9 billion to 27.9 million CPFs and CNPJs. After the transfer request, the money must be deposited via Pix, TED or DOC within 12 working days.
Anyone who accessed the site and discovered that they do not have amounts receivable at this stage will be able to make a new query on May 2. In the first phase, the amounts returned refer to checking or savings accounts closed with available balance or resources from forgotten consortia, among other situations.
The heirs of citizens who died will also be able to redeem amounts forgotten in banks by the worker who died, according to information from the monetary authority.
In a note, the BC informed that it will soon disclose the procedures for those who have amounts to be received “by legally authorized third parties (attorney, guardian, curator, heir, administrator or responsible for a non-emancipated minor)”.
The BC created a schedule for releasing bank transfers, which varies according to the year of birth of the citizen or the creation of the company. To make the query, simply inform the CPF and the date of birth or CNPJ and the date of opening of the company.
If the date of birth or opening of the company is incorrect, the system indicates that there are no amounts receivable. On the second day of consultations, BC made a correction to the tool, including an alert for possible filling errors.
For date of birth or company creation prior to 1968, transfers can be requested between March 7th and 11th. For a date after 1983, the release will take place between March 21 and 25.
When you receive the appointment, it is necessary to check whether it was for the period from 4 am to 2 pm or from 2 pm to midnight. If you forget or miss the scheduled date and period, just make the appointment again to confirm the information. In the case of those who do not return to the system within the defined period, the calendar provides for a recap date.
The second consultation, in which the citizen will know how much he will have to receive and will ask for a bank transfer, will require an account on the gov.br portal with a gold or silver security level, considered safer. That is, those who discovered that they have money to receive must update their gov.br registration to be able to check how much they will receive and request the transfer.
