How to regularize your CPF?

First of all, you need to check how your CPF is suspended. After all, in addition to being blocked, it can also be canceled or cancelled. Because of this, it is important to understand the difference in each case.

• Suspended CPF: When the Federal Revenue finds some type of irregularity in the taxpayer's registration data or when a person fails to vote in the last election;
• Canceled CPF: Occurs when several records are found with the same individual or there is loss or theft of a document;
• Canceled CPF: When fraud is found in the register, such as the duplication of a document or number in the name of deceased persons.

In the case of the problem with Income Tax, it fits precisely in the question of the blocked CPF, as it is a pending issue in relation to the Federal Revenue Service.
