THE NIT It is still a subject that generates many doubts, especially related to what this acronym is.
This is because there is a lot of talk about PIS, NIS, and the subject generally also includes NIT.
But, after all, what is the NIT? What is its relationship with the PIS? How can I check it online?
These and other questions will be answered today, through the following content, where we will bring complete information about NIT.
Therefore, if you want to delve deeper into the subject and resolve your doubts easily, come and check it out!
What is NIT?
Every year there is a time when PIS becomes the main topic, this being the payment period.
This is because workers registered with PIS and who meet the requirements receive a benefit amount.
But, associated with this subject, we have another one that also receives attention, which is the NIT.
The main questions revolve around knowing what this acronym is, and in which cases it is used.
And, if you are going through this dilemma, know that today we can solve it, since we will see everything about the NIT.
The NIT (Worker Registration Number) is an INSS record for self-employed workers, who have not worked with a signed contract.
The purpose of the NIT is to allow the self-employed to contribute to the INSS, and consequently receive the benefits related to this contribution.
In this way, self-employed workers who are registered with the NIT have the possibility of issuing the contribution guide.
In this way, the same has access to all benefits and services granted by INSS.
However, it is important to say that the NIT is not only granted to self-employed workers.
This is because, If you do not work independently, but wish to contribute to the INSS, you can issue a NIT.
Thus, the NIT is intended for all those who are not registered with PIS or PASEP, but who wish to contribute and obtain social security benefits.
This includes people who do not work professionally, self-employed workers and even optional contributors.
What rights are guaranteed by registration?
In the previous topic we explained what is NIT, and what is the main function of this record.
So, you already know that NIT is a means to self-employed or individual or optional contributors access Social Security services.
This is because, by having a NIT registration, the citizen has the possibility of issuing and paying the INSS contribution collection guide.
This contribution counts towards the collection, which allows citizens to access social security services.
In this way, citizens registered with the NIT also have the possibility of contributing to a future retirement.
Thus, in the same way that registered workers contribute and have the possibility of retiring, the same occurs with those registered with the NIT.
Therefore, if you collect the necessary amount and time over the years, you will have access to retirement through the INSS.
In addition to retirement, other benefits are also granted to these contributors.
Among the benefits available, we can highlight:
- Sickness benefit;
- Maternity pay;
- Leave of absence for health reasons.
It is worth mentioning that these are the main benefits, but it is possible to check with the INSS which ones are available.
With this, it is easy to understand that being registered with the NIT and paying the contribution guide is an excellent way to guarantee social security rights!
NIT x PIS: what's the difference?
At this point you already have a complete understanding of the NIT, and you know what this registration is for and what benefits it grants.
However, there is still one main doubt, which is regarding the relationship between NIT and PIS.
The PIS (Social Integration Program) is a registration intended for workers who have a history of employment registration.
The purpose of PIS is to allow these workers to register with Social Security.
In this way, all worker information is consulted at INSS through PIS.
Therefore, the PIS is issued as soon as the worker starts his/her first formal job.
From that moment on, all future registrations and contributions will be associated with that number.
It is possible to see that PIS has basically the same purpose as NIT.
THE only difference is that one intended for workers with a formal employment record, while the other is for those who do not have a registration.
Therefore, for those who have never worked with registration, the NIT replaces the PIS with the INSS.
It is worth mentioning that the NIT can only be issued by citizens who have never had a PIS registration.
Therefore, if you are self-employed, but have already worked in formal employment, your valid registration is PIS.
It is worth mentioning that the NIT does not guarantee the right to the Salary Bonus, as this is an exclusive benefit of PIS.
This makes it easy to understand the difference between these two records, and which audiences each one is intended for!
I've never worked: how do I get one?
We already know that the Employee Registration Number can only be issued if the person is not registered with PIS.
This is because, if the PIS registration exists, it is not necessary to create another record, as it is enough to use the one that already exists.
Therefore, the NIT is intended for citizens who do not have another type of registration.
Therefore, if you have never worked formally, it is perfectly possible to apply for your NIT.
In this case, the first thing you need to do is register with Social Security, through the INSS.
To do this, you must not have any type of registration, which includes PIS, PASEP or NIS.
By complying with this rule, simply go to an INSS service channel to make your request.
It is currently possible to make this request either through the website, the app or through in-person service at an INSS organic unit.
Simply access one of the channels and request your registration with Social Security.
Once you have registered, your NIT number will be issued, and you will be able to access all available services.
How to consult?
In addition to creating a record, a very common situation is one in which the citizen forgets his NIT number.
The good news is that this is a simple problem to solve, as all you need to do is make an online consultation.
To do this, the first step is to access the website or My INSS application.
There you must include your main data and access your account, where your NIS registration will be shown.
But, if you prefer, we have other channels for consultation, these being:
- Telephone call to number 135;
- CNIS (National Social Information Registry);
- Via the CadÚnico website or app;
- Through in-person service at an INSS organic unit.
It is worth mentioning that the NIT number can be found on your identity document or on your Work Card.
So these are also practical means for consultation.
Anyway, checking your registration online is very easy, and you just need to provide your personal data to obtain the information.
That said, now that you know everything about the subject, take advantage of the registration and consultation possibilities!
