A REVISÃO DA VIDA TODA DIANTE DO ENTENDIMENTO JURISPRUDENCIAL COMO FORMA DE APLICAÇÃO DO BENEFÍCIO

Abstract

The whole life review is a topic relating to pensions that includes the possibility of including contribution salaries prior to July 1994, that is, prior to the Real Plan period, in pension calculations. Before this date, Brazil faced high inflation and frequent exchange rates. Jurisprudential opinions on this issue vary from court to court. Some legal positions defend the feasibility of a “whole life review” and argue that the exclusion of old wages will result in losses for the insured. This understanding shows that salaries prior to 1994 were more important for many people because of inflation, justifying their inclusion in Social Security calculations. The court approved changes to ensure that benefits are more in line with actual contributions over the insured's working life. Complexity and differences in legal understanding highlight the need for clarity in social security legislation and underline the importance of a thorough analysis of individual cases. This debate is evolving and has a direct impact on the way Social Security benefits are calculated, emphasizing the validity of an impartial approach that takes into account the characteristics of each insured person. The case law surrounding Lifetime Assessment continues to evolve, with new decisions affecting how pension benefits are calculated. The debate emphasized the importance of clear and up-to-date social security legislation, capable of addressing the nuances arising from economic changes over time.
