Requested a pay raise? Learn what each stage of the process means.
If you have already requested the salary prize, understand the evolution of each stage of the process until the money is in your account.
What does each state of the process mean after requesting a salary bonus?
The salary prize can now be requested during this month of May, but the doubt that now arises is to know the meaning of each state of the process as soon as the request is submitted.
There are several steps until receiving, effectively, the money in your account. According to the Tax Authority in response to frequently asked questions, these are the statuses and their meanings after submitting the request:
Awaiting payment - Waiting for processing to issue payment.
Issued transfer - Payment has already been ordered to be received in the bank account in the next few days;
Paid transfer - Payment received in the bank account;
Waiting for IBAN confirmation - Check if your IBAN is registered on the Finance Portal and if it is in the "confirmed" state;
Transfer rejected by the bank - The payment order was rejected by your bank so you must update your IBAN on the Finance Portal.
Note that this is an award that can be requested by young workers and residents in Portugal, of Portuguese or foreign nationality, until the year they turn 35, as a reward for having obtained bachelor's or master's degrees.
However, it applies only to those who have completed their studies from 2023 onwards, or before that if the number of years elapsed since obtaining the academic degree is less than the number of years planned to complete the bachelor's or master's degree.
The objective is to provide financial incentive for the continuation of higher education and contribute to the valorization of income for qualified young workers in the country.
