A total of 462,000 taxpayers have yet to receive income tax refunds from other years. These people either reported the wrong credit account or did not enter the data into the system.
Also count those who fell into the fine grid, and after the situation was settled, their values were released. In total, there are R$295 million waiting to be withdrawn. The data is from Banco do Brasil (BB).
“The Individual Income Tax Return (IRPF) is paid by the Federal Revenue Service of Brazil (RFB) through Banco do Brasil,” says the BB’s official website.
