Additional Information

• Following the pensionable employees withdrawal, the employee is no longer an EPF member as he is considered to have made full withdrawal of his savings. If he is re-employed with a private agency in future, he is obligated to re-contribute to EPF using the same EPF number again.
• Employee can choose to re-contribute to EPF even after opting for the pensionable employees withdrawal by filling in the KWSP 6A (1) Form. The statutory contribution rate is no less than RM50.00 and no more than RM5,000.00 per month. However, the contribution is part of the member’s salary only and member’s employer is no longer required to contribute.

4. Members Investment Withdrawal

This table lists the benchmarked basic savings according to members’ ages.

Withdrawal Limit

The maximum withdrawal sum is calculated as follows:

(Account 1 – Basic Savings) x 20%

Additional Information

• Depending on the members’ savings in Account 1, subsequent investment may be done in 3 months following the previous transfer.  
• Once the investment units are sold, the withdrawn sum AND the gains from the investment must be returned to the members’ Account 1.
• Members are not allowed to withdraw sums from said investment.
• EPF dividends will only be based on existing savings in EPF Accounts. Thus, the withdrawn amount will not be considered for dividends.
• There is no service charge for investment through FMIs.

5. Savings of More than RM1 Million Withdrawal

This withdrawal allows EPF members to withdraw their savings if their credit is at least RM1.05 million.

Withdrawal Limit

No less than RM50, 000 from Account 2. If insufficient, the balance will be taken from Account 1.

Additional Information

• Withdrawal can be done once in a 3 months, and a new application is needed for each withdrawal.

6. Health Withdrawal

Additional Information

• If the employer has covered part of the medical expenses, employees can withdraw the remaining balance subjected to the savings balance in Account 2.
• The list of critical illnesses approved by the EPF Board is here.

7. Hajj Withdrawal

As of 2013, certain members are allowed to withdraw savings from their Account 2 in order to fund their Hajj trip. The amount, however, is capped and should only be used to supplement basic expenses; not the entire cost of the trip. This is so that the withdrawal would not undermine the members’ retirement savings.

In order to be eligible for the withdrawal, one or more of the following must be true:

• Members below 55 years old, who’ve received a letter with the ‘SELECTED’ status from Lembaga Tabung Haji (LTH);
• Members with insufficient savings in LTH.

Withdrawal Limit

The allowed withdrawal sum is the lower of the two methods listed below:

• Members’ LTH Savings – Total Cost for Hajj < RM 3,000
• Account 2 balance

The total cost for Hajj, as prescribed by LTH, depends upon the different years. For example, for current first time pilgrims, Hajj fees are RM 9,980. Note that, this cost is subsidized (RM 6,175) by LTH for first time pilgrims. This subsidy is not offered to those who have already performed Hajj before.

Additional Information

• The EPF/KWSP Hajj Withdrawal is only offered once to all applicants.

Conclusion

There are numerous options for EPF/KWSP withdrawals that aren’t known to many. That said, it is imperative that you weigh the pros and cons of taking money out of your EPF accounts.

FAQ

Q: How can I check/claim unclaimed monies in EPF?EPF has launched an online Unclaimed Contribution Information Search.

Q. Is there a limit to the number of EPF withdrawals? For example, if I overlap my withdrawals from Ac 2 to serving housing loan & education loan.
A: You can have multiple withdrawals ongoing. However, it is subject to individual withdrawal limits. For example, you can only withdraw to reduce your housing loan after 12mths from the last withdrawal date.
Note: You can only have 1 home loan withdrawal from Ac 2 at any time

Q: If I bought a property previously financed with Ac 2 withdrawal & later sold it off, would I be able to withdraw from Ac 2 usual for a new property purchase?
A: Yes. When you sold off your property, the amount you originally withdrew from Ac 2 would be returned to Ac 2. You can now withdraw from Ac 2 to purchase your new property.

Q: If a person really wanted to, could he/she deposit extra money into either EPF account?
A: Yes you can make extra EPF contributions but only to Ac 1 which can only be withdrawn after age 55. If your EPF & insurance monthly contribution total is < 500 a month, you may want to consider making an extra contribution. EPF min returns 2.5%. Subject to EPF investment performance. One may want to invest in a vehicle with higher returns/liquidity (FD, endowment, shares, UT, property)

Contributing More Than The Statutory Rate (From EPF website):
You or your employer, or both, may contribute at a rate exceeding the statutory rate through the following options:

If only you opt to contribute at a rate exceeding the statutory rate, you may submit a notice of election to contribute at a rate exceeding the statutory rate using Form KWSP 17A (AHL).
If only your employer opts to contribute at a rate exceeding the statutory rate, your employer may submit a notice of election to contribute at a rate exceeding the statutory rate using Form KWSP 17 (MAJ).
If both you and your employer opt to contribute at a rate exceeding the statutory rate, you and your employer may submit a notice of election to contribute at a rate exceeding the statutory rate using Form KWSP 17A (AHL) and Form KWSP 17 (MAJ) respectively.
This rate will be the new statutory rate and shall remain so until you and/or your employer submit a notice of cancellation using Form KWSP 18A (AHL) and Form KWSP 18 (MAJ) respectively. Upon receipt of the notification, the rate of contribution will be reverted to the current statutory rate.

Q: Can I withdraw from Ac 2 to purchase overseas house, marriage or a personal loan?
Unfortunately the withdrawal is not allowed to buy a house abroad, marriage, personal loan or other purpose not stated explicitly by EPF.

Q: Can I withdraw for my children’s university studies?
