Sorry some dumb ques.

Let say a person have 100k in EPF account
So account 1 = 70k, and acc 2 = 30k.
Then withdraw 30k from acc 2 for house/ptptn/education etc.

Balance account 1 = 70k, acc 2 = 0

Or

Balance account 1 = 70k *70% = 49k
Account 2 = 21k

A/C 2 is for health, education, house

Thanks for the fast feedback.

Let say a person monthly epf contribution is 2k (employer+employee)
Acc 2 will be starting the saving again from zero with monthly 2k *30% = 600 ?

Correct?

Based on EPF website, 1st time EPF withdrawal-account 2 to purchase house will direct credit to the person bank account right?

If the person use the money for other purposes such as higher yield investment vehicle, renovation house etc, will EPF track the purpose of the money usage?? (Will they recall the money)

Yes, you may withdraw acc2 for house. you may use it for anything even for investment. when u buy a house, u will fork out ur own money to pay for the 10% downpayment right? once sign s&p, u will proceed to withdraw from ur acc2. so the money is actually to pay back ur 10% that you have paid earlier. so epf don't care if u gonna use it for whatever reason.

Make sense hehe..
