DCB: The Scheduled Benefit End Date
The DCB (Data de Cessação do Benefício, or Benefit End Date) is the date on which INSS (Brazil’s National Social Security Institute) schedules the end of a disability benefit, such as the temporary disability benefit (auxílio por incapacidade temporária). Understanding this concept is essential so that insured persons know their rights and can act in time if they disagree with the decision.
