How to declare a quarter in Segurança Social Direta

When a quarter's declaration period opens, InvoiceXpress prepares the values for you to copy into Segurança Social Direta (SSD). 🗓️

⚠️ Important: InvoiceXpress does not submit anything on your behalf. You always submit the declaration yourself, on the Segurança Social Direta website.

1Open the declaration window

Go to Freelancer Life → Social Security and click Declare on the quarter's card.

The “Declare to Social Security” window opens, showing the deadline and a summary of the values to declare, month by month.

2Submit the declaration in SSD

  1. 📋 Click Copy values. The button changes to Copied!
  2. 🔗 Click Open Segurança Social Direta. The website opens in a new tab.
  3. 🖥️ In SSD (the website is in Portuguese):
    1. Log in to Segurança Social Direta.
    2. Go to Trabalho → Remunerações e Contribuições.
    3. Choose Trabalhadores Independentes → Regime de Declaração Trimestral.
    4. Enter the values per month (services and goods, excluding VAT).
  4. ✅ Submit the declaration in SSD.

3Pay 💶

After declaring, you pay between the 10th and 20th of each of the following three months. The window shows exactly which months.

4Mark as declared

Back in InvoiceXpress, click Save and mark as declared.

  • The quarter now shows Declared and the button changes to View declaration.
  • This only updates InvoiceXpress — it's your personal record that you've done it.

💬 Common questions

❓ I declared in SSD but the card still says “Declare”.

InvoiceXpress doesn't receive this information automatically. Open the quarter and click Save and mark as declared.

❓ I forgot to declare a quarter. Can I still do it?

Yes. The card shows Declare – overdue. Open it, copy the values, submit in SSD and mark it as declared.

❓ Can I declare the current quarter?

No. While it is running, it shows as Provisional. Wait until it ends and the declaration period opens.

💡 Tip: once Social Security gives you the official amount, record it in InvoiceXpress to confirm the estimate. See How to record the official amount and compare it with the estimate.
