Governo na Rua Event in Campo Grande Delivers 530 INSS Appointments

INSS handled 530 appointments during the Governo do Brasil na Rua (Brazilian Government on the Street) event in Campo Grande (MS) on February 5, 2026. The event took place at the CEU das Artes in Parque Lageado, from 8:00 to 18:00. It recorded more than 250 administrative services, along with medical examinations and social security guidance for insured people in the capital of Mato Grosso do Sul.

Social Security Services Offered

It is worth noting that traveling events like Governo na Rua make it possible to offer a range of services that normally require an appointment booked in advance at INSS offices. The administrative services provided included review of retirement applications, granting of temporary disability benefits (auxílio por incapacidade temporária), benefit reviews, and guidance on social security rights.

It is also advisable to bring CNIS (National Social Security Information Registry) statements, which you can get ahead of time through the Meu INSS app.

Under Law No. 8.213/1991, which governs the Social Security Benefit Plans, insured people are entitled to several benefits, such as retirement by age and by contribution time (with the transition rules of Constitutional Amendment No. 103/2019), temporary disability benefits (Article 59), maternity pay (Article 71), and survivor’s pension (Article 74).

The Social Reach of Traveling Events

Even though digital channels exist, such as the Meu INSS app (the INSS mobile app) and the Central 135 phone line, in-person traveling events play a key role in making social security services more accessible. They reach people who struggle with digital services or who live in areas with limited infrastructure. The principle of universal service, set out in Article 194 of the Federal Constitution, requires the government to ensure that all citizens can exercise their social security and social assistance rights.

Moreover, offering medical examinations during the event is especially significant, since waiting to schedule a medical examination is one of the main bottlenecks in granting disability benefits across the country.

Practical Guidance for Insured People

To make the most of INSS traveling events, you should bring a photo ID, your CPF (Brazil’s individual taxpayer ID number), a recent proof of address, your work card, and complete medical records (reports, test results, and prescriptions) if you need a medical evaluation. It is also advisable to bring CNIS (National Social Security Information Registry) statements, which you can get ahead of time through the Meu INSS app.

If one of your benefits is denied, you may file an administrative appeal with the Social Security Appeals Council within 30 days, as provided in Decree No. 3.048/1999. You do not need a lawyer at the administrative level.

Most Requested Benefits at Traveling Events

At the government’s traveling service events, the most common requests to INSS are for retirement by age, for BPC/LOAS (Brazil’s Continuous Cash Benefit for people with disabilities and older adults in need), and for a medical examination for temporary disability benefits. Many people also take the opportunity to update their registration data, request contribution statements, and get answers to questions about their social security rights.

These joint events bring several federal agencies together in one place. That makes it easier to get services that would normally require multiple trips and separate appointments, saving the public time and money.

Traveling events like this one show how important it is for the federal government to be present in every region of the country. For many people, this may be their first chance to access social security services in a simple, hassle-free way, which helps reduce informal employment and expand social protection coverage in Brazil.

What This Means for You

Keeping up with INSS events and changes is essential to making sure your social security rights are respected. Many insured people do not know about benefits they are entitled to, or they miss important steps because they lack up-to-date information.
