The government will reform the PIS and Cofins in three stages. The first change, which should be sent to Congress later this month, will take place in the PIS. After a year of testing with the new PIS, it will be the turn of the Cofins reform. In a third stage, PIS and Cofins, contributions that finance social security, will be unified in a single tax in a model very similar to the Value Added Tax (VAT) charged by European countries.
