The new deal proposed by the Attorney General’s Office starts today, March 6th. Debts registered as active federal debt with a consolidated value of up to R$50 million will be eligible for negotiation with discounts.
The conditions of the transaction, such as discounts and deadlines, will be verified on the basis of the taxpayer’s classification, taking into account their ability to pay, to be measured on the basis of the registration, property or economic-fiscal information provided to the Federal Tax Administration or other bodies, and will be carried out automatically in the adhesion process, the most beneficial being for taxpayers with classifications “C” and “D”.
Discounts of up to 65% of the registration fee will be granted, taking into account the taxpayer’s ability to pay and the number of installments chosen.
It is important to note that the transaction will grant easy down payments, with 6% of the total amount to be transacted without a discount, which can be divided into up to 6 months and with a deadline for payment of the remaining balance in up to 114 monthly installments.
For MEIs, MEs, EPPs, Holy Houses of Mercy, cooperative societies and other civil society organizations and educational institutions, the discounts are even better, reaching up to 70% under the same conditions. The down payment must be 6% of the total debt to be transacted without discount, which can be divided into up to 12 months and the remaining balance can be paid in up to 133 monthly installments.
Although the transaction also covers social security debts, the total number of installments (down payment plus monthly installments) for debts of this nature has been limited to 60 months, in compliance with constitutional limits, with the exception of FUNRURAL debts, which can be paid in more installments.
Another very interesting point is the possibility of using federal writs of payment to settle or amortize the outstanding balance.
This is undoubtedly a great opportunity for companies of any size to settle their federal liabilities under easier conditions.
