Just a little heads up
both H/S and NIS contributions are in fact taxes, and most Venezuelans working in T&T don't pay either.

Son, you can feel free to play barber and split all the hairs you want to your heart's content. They are in fact taxes levied upon the working population. And the fact remains that the GoRTT has openly given vene refugees permission to work in T&T and exempted them from deductions of these from their incomes. No Venezuelan refugee working in T&T pays any tax other than VAT. No PAYE, no nis, no w/h tax, nothing.

That said, NIS is a scam by the government. People in their 20's and 30's today should not expect the NIS to be solvent when they reach retirement age.

That link you posted there, that's survivors benefit for spouses, children, and dependent parents that are NOT receiving any other benefits from NIS, and only relates to if you die on the job due to accidental event or disease caused by exposure to factors causative to your death in the workplace, and has nothing to do with a person that paid contributions all their life being allowed to actively select to whom their benefits are assigned when they die after their retirement before the total benefits are paid out in full.

It's one of the reasons why so many elderly people often opt to take their retirement benefits in a lump sum. Because they know if they retire at 65 and live to let's say 68 (which is close to the life expectancy of the average Trini male), their benefits effectively die with them.
