PIS Proof: What is it for and where can I get it? 

Needing proof of PIS can be a complicated situation, as little is known about this document.

The general questions are about what this receipt is, what it is for and how it can be issued.

And, if, like most people, you find yourself lost in this topic, today's material is here to save you.

That's because we'll see everything about the PIS receipt, as well as teach you other ways to get this number, so don't miss out!

What is PIS?

Before we talk about the PIS receipt, it is important to provide an introduction to the topic.

This is because, although PIS is a popular topic, it is not uncommon to see cases of citizens who do not even know what the acronym means.

PIS (Social Integration Program) is a tax contribution made by private sector companies, which aims to offer benefits to employees.

In this way, the amounts paid to PIS are used to cover benefits and labor rights, such as unemployment insurance, FGTS and salary bonus.

Therefore, if you've ever wondered where the resources for paying these labor rights come from, PIS collection is the answer.

But, we know that at this moment you are a little confused, after all, you have always heard that PIS is a worker identification number.

And, in fact, this view is not wrong, since this collection made by the company must be directed to employees specifically.

This means that there must be a registry, so that information can be collected both on the collection of PIS amounts and for the release of payment of duties.

So, we popularly call PIS the registration number of the worker who works in a private company, with a registered employment record.

Thus, from the moment a citizen has their first registration on their work card, their PIS is issued and accompanies them throughout their professional life.

What is the PIS receipt and how do I get it?

Throughout the previous topic, we explained what PIS is, so you now understand that this is a program that aims to collect taxes from private companies in order to guarantee the payment of labor rights to employees.

Furthermore, we also saw that each private company worker has a PIS registration, which can be identified through an 11-digit number.

This makes it easier to explain what the PIS receipt is, which is the main topic of our content today.

The PIS receipt is nothing more than a document that serves to prove the worker's registration number in the program.

It is worth mentioning that this proof is not usually requested, since the PIS can be located through other, simpler access sources.

However, this proof is necessary on some occasions, especially when requesting social benefits.

For this reason, we will now see how it is possible to obtain the PIS receipt.

The simplest way to obtain it is through a Caixa Econômica Federal branch, where you can request your receipt.

But, if you're looking for convenience, you can also get your PIS receipt through the Caixa Trabalhador app or the Caixa PIS website.

Whichever method you choose, you will have to provide your personal information, and you will soon have your receipt in hand.

Once that's done, just use your voucher however you want or need!

NIS, PIS or PASEP: how do I know which one I have? 

At this point, you already understand everything about PIS, as well as what the PIS receipt is for, and how to issue it.

But, whenever we talk about PIS, some questions arise related to registration.

This is because it is known that some have PIS, while others have the NIS, and another group has PASEP.

As for PIS, you already know that this is the registry for private sector workers, that is, those who work in private companies.

PASEP (Public Servant Asset Formation Program), as the name suggests, is a program aimed at public servants.

Therefore, those who work in the public sector will have the PASEP, instead of PIS.

And finally, the NIS is the Social Registration Number, aimed at citizens who have never worked with a registration, therefore, they do not have PIS or PASEP.

The NIS is used to request government social benefits for people who do not have a PIS.

So, this description helps us understand what each of the acronyms is, and the differences between them.

Where can I check my PIS number other than the PIS Receipt?

Do you remember that we said that the PIS receipt is a document that is not usually used and/or requested?

We saw that the reason for this is the fact that PIS is easily accessible data, and rarely needs to be verified.

However, it is not uncommon for people to seek proof of PIS because they do not know their registration number.

The good news is that there are simpler ways to get this information.

The first of these is through the work card, since the PIS number is usually found on the worker's identification page.

If you have a digital CTPS, the PIS does not appear on the identification page.

In this case, you will have to access the Salary Bonus tab to check your PIS.

Finally, you can also access your registration through the Caixa Trabalhador app, or in the insert of the old Caixa Econômica Citizen Card.

So, we can see that it is possible to consult the PIS in several sources, and reserve the issuance of the PIS receipt only when it is really necessary.

It is worth mentioning that the receipt has no expiration date, as it is only for reference purposes.

So, after issuing it, you can save it and consult it whenever necessary, without having to issue a new one!
