It is informed that detailed information concerning said service can be found in the corresponding manuals located in the following routes:

Home » Useful information » RED System » Direct Settlement System » Documentation » User Manuals » Services associated with settlement.

Responsible declarations and notices under Royal Decree-Law 2/2021

The submission of responsible declarations and notices referred to in BNR 02/2021, in application of the provisions of Royal Decree-Law 2/2021, for the February settlement period, is expected to be available on 26th February.

For maintenance and application upgrades, the SLD and RED Direct services are expected to be closed until 2nd March inclusive. Processing of the files will not start until that date.

Due to maintenance and application updates, the Customer Service and Support Centre (CASIA) will be closed from 19:00 hours on Monday 8th March until early morning on Tuesday 9th March.

• Collection Segment Opening:
  

The Collection segment has been opened in the list of segments available in Casia. As a result, the process of Providing documentation accrediting late updates of settlements has been renamed as "Collection". This renaming only affects cases that are opened from now on, cases that are already open will not be affected. The catalogue of collection procedures will be gradually expanded. 

It is very important that the correct cataloguing of each of the procedures is respected so that they can be dealt with by the competent Service Unit. 

• New sub-statuses within the Closed Status: 4 new sub-statuses have been created within the Closed Status, applicable only to procedure cases, as these cases inform the meaning of the resolution on the merits of the matter raised in the request:  Upheld, partially upheld, dismissed, inadmissible.
  

For maintenance and upgrades, the Customer Service and Support Centre (CASIA) will be closed on Sunday 14th March from 08.00 to 12.00 hours.

In relation to the publication of Royal Decree-Law 02/2021, of 26 January, and the consequent implementation in the General Affiliation File of the new values of Responsible Declaration and Inactivity referred to in BNR 2/2021, the following clarifications are made.

In accordance with the provisions of article 2 of the aforementioned regulation, which establishes the possibility of moving from a situation of impediment to one of limitation or vice versa, without the need to process a new temporary employment regulation file, when the company affected prior to 1 February 2021, by a temporary employment regulation file due to "Impediments" or "Limitations", moves from one situation to the other, from that date onwards, it will be necessary to present the new responsible declaration values 074- ERTE Activity Impediments Art.2 RDL 2/2021- or 075- ERTE Activity Limitations. Art.2.RDL2/2021

If, for example, the company had been affected for the period prior to February 2021 by ERTE due to "Limitations", from February onwards the CPC 068-ERTE Activity Limitations Art.2.2 RDL 30/2020-, must be filed for the period of time in ERTE due to limitations, and when transitioning to the situation of impediments, a CPC74- ERTE Activity Impediments Art.2 RDL 2/2021- must be filed with the "Date from" of this change of circumstances. Accordingly, when returning to a situation of limitations, CPC 075- ERTE Activity Limitations must be submitted. Art.2.RDL2/2021

Actual Date of Variation  

Due to maintenance work on the  database of the RED System, there will be a technical stoppage on the following days:

• On 16th April, between 21:00 and midnight, the SLD architecture will be halted and therefore remittances will not be processed. The SLD and RED direct services will remain open but some error may occur.

An improvement has been implemented in the communication procedure of the "CRA" Subscriber Remuneration Concepts for RED DIRECTO's authorised users.

It is possible to recover the CRAs communicated in the previous settlement period and  to select one or more workers and their salaries  to carry out the corresponding registration.

The submission of the responsible declarations and communications referred to in BNR 4/2021, of 4 June for the application of the provisions of Royal Decree-Law  11/2021, of 27 May, on urgent measures for the defence of employment, economic reactivation and the protection of self-employed workers, will be available from the following dates:

• Filing of responsible declarations –CPC-: 01 July.
• Communication of INACTIVITY TYPE field values and calculation of characteristics: 09 July.

Therefore, from 1 July, the responsible declarations may be filed prior to the request for the settlement of amount corresponding to June 2021.

However, the new values of the INACTIVITY TYPE field associated with the new responsible declarations –CPC- created specifically for Royal Decree-Law 11/2021 cannot be reported until 9 July, in those cases where this is appropriate.

Likewise, variations or corrections to the INACTIVITY TYPE field, created for previous Royal Decree-Laws but which are applicable during the validity of RDL 11/2021, may not be reported until 9 July.

Likewise, until 9 July, the contribution characteristics corresponding to the exemptions established in RDL 11/2021 will not be calculated. Therefore, the settlement of amounts referring to the amount for June 2021, to which contribution exemptions may be applicable, should not be confirmed until that date, provided that the responsible declaration has been previously filed and the corresponding value of the INACTIVITY TYPE field has been reported, if applicable.

It is reported that there have been problems in calculating settlements of workers affected by ERTE for June 2021, which would have been submitted between 1 and 8 July 2021. It is requested that no further action be taken on them. A new communication will be issued when the incident has been rectified.

However, the aforementioned impact does not affect settlements submitted, for the first time, as of today, for June 2021.

Please be advised that the possibility of recording any TYPE OF INACTIVITY value affecting the June 2021 settlement period is now available.

From 20/07/2021, information on self-employed workers included in the Special Scheme for Self-Employed Workers and in the Special Scheme for Sea Workers will be communicated in the INSS EMPRESAS (FIE) file. Following the entry into operation of version 2.0 of the FIE on 08/03/2021, self-employed workers were the only group whose inclusion in the FIE had not yet taken place, therefore, as of 20/07/2021, the FIE will cover all groups of workers.

FIER - New RED Online System service from 20/09/2021

From 20 September 2021, the new FIER service will be available in the RED Online System – see RED News Bulletin 5/2021 of 1 July 2021.

This new application allows any main or secondary user of a RED DIRECT or RED Direct Settlement System authorisation to download the information contained in version 2.0 of the INSS Companies File (FIE) in Excel format. In addition, it allows the joint download of a period of time, with a maximum of 17 days and 300 records per query.

At www.seg-social.es, in the section Red System/ INSS/ User Manuals you can consult the FIER User Manual, which details how to access the service, as well as the fields contained on the application's start screen and the actions that can be carried out. A link to the FIER User Manual is also displayed at the bottom of the FIER service screen.

Finally, we remind you that the FIE 2.0 Message registration design can be consulted at www.seg-social.es, in the section Red System/ INSS/ Technical Instructions.

New consultation service for self-employed workers' quotas.

A new service for the "Consultation of receipts issued in the Self-Employed System" is operational in the RED System, which can be accessed from the RETA CONTRIBUTION section of the Virtual Office, and where you can obtain information on the contribution that will be debited from the self-employed worker's bank account on the last working day of the month. Specifically:

• From the 26th day of each month, it will be possible to consult the quota corresponding to that settlement period, as well as any supplementary settlements corresponding to previous periods that will be debited from the account that month.
• At any time it is possible to consult the contributions corresponding to settlement periods prior to that in which the consultation is made and which were already issued by the Social Security General Treasury for debiting to the corresponding bank account. The first settlement period for which information is available in the new service is July 2018, when the SEPA-compliant debit issuance procedure was implemented.

The information  obtained through this service cannot, under any circumstances, be used as a document for the payment of contributions, nor does it certify that these contributions have actually been paid by the worker, and therefore this information does not constitute accreditation that the worker is up to date with their payment obligations to the General Treasury of the Social Security.

In addition, a Service Help Manual has been made available to RED Authorisers, located through the following routes:

Home / RED System / RED Direct / RED Direct Documentation / User manuals / Special Regime for Self-Employed Workers

Home / RED System / RED Internet / RED Internet Documentation / User manuals / Special Regime for Self-Employed Workers

For maintenance and application upgrades, the SLD and RED Direct services are expected to be closed until 5 October inclusive. Processing of the files will not start until that date.
