How do you find out that it hanged/spinning at the FPX page? I self contributed RM 20k on Friday and until today still not inside my EPF account.
*
Those I use FPX at IAkaun on 27(Fri), 28(Sat) have been credited n shown in balance and trans history. But the one via M2U on 27(Fri) is still nowhere in sight.

Answer from KWSP enquiry:-

Please be informed that a salaried employee who receives a monthly/mandatory contribution from their employer is not eligible to receive the government incentives under the i-Saraan scheme.

Additionally, please be advised that the government incentives for the i-Saraan scheme contributions have been postponed until further notice and will be confirmed once the Budget 2023 has been finalized.

If you wish to voluntarily contribute to your EPF account, you may opt to make your own voluntary payment under self-contribution scheme at any time until the age of 75 with any minimum amount but not more than RM60,000.00 in a year.
*
So after resignation n while not employed can go for isaraan (if available)?

If you hv cimb Malaysia, you can open cimb singapore online ! Just sit at home to do it. But upfront you would need $ 1000 SGD deposit to your Sing account.
*
So can open an CIMB SG account via cimbclick with 0 balance first. How to deposit the SGD1000 upfront, convert MYR-to-SGD via cimbclick too?

If >55, means we can do the self-contribution yet withdraw the money at anytime?
*
When u r >55, your self contribution will go into the Akaun Emas where u can only withdraw after 60yo. However u can withdraw any amount from Akaun55.

Self contribution of rm3000 in Jan2023 should get another rm300 in the 2nd half of 2023 on top of this rm250, right?

Should be permanent type

Where can simply change to 100k then back to 60k

Also DSAI or EPF CEO previously didn't mention only for 1 year @ 2023....

Unlike the i-saraa/i-suri thingy
*
For the time being probably the easiest n best place to park money n giving a consistent 5 to 6% returns. Now MY EPF > ASMx. Will stop once ratio is 2:1.

Dec 2018 there are 39k individuals >1M with a total of RM66B+

user posted image
Dec 2020 increase to 68k individuals >1M (total up last two rows) with a total of RM116B

By Dec 2022, projected 2 years growth at nearly double the individuals and double the amount.

Dec 2020 assume 68k individuals withdraw everything >1M and leaving a base of 1M
= 116 - 68
= Outflow of 48B

Assume Dec 2022 projected double
= 2x 48B
= 96 billion withdrawal, it won't be insignificant if tiered dividend happens. Even more than the total i-series ?

I think EPF knows got this kind of people

That's why limit 60k previously... Now increase to 100k

People abuse / make it as CASA 😁. Like some in ASB funds

I think the 1st couple of years when self contribution started there was no limit.

let's say one hit age 60.  can treat epf like bank? put 60k in today then take out next few month?
*
U can withdraw any amount per year.
But can only put in 60k (100k new quota) per year as self-contribution unlike bank where u can deposit any amount.

Last day of the month - correct. Earn 28 days from bank - how are you going to do that? Unless you're referring to Feb>Mar, I don't see how you can earn 28 days of interest.
*
Instead of deposit on 1Mar do it on 29Mar or 30Mar? Using EPF app.

Let's say April, which has 30 days. I self contributed rm10k on 1st April but this money isn't earning me any additional EPF dividend since i only need to make sure i have that rm10k on 29th April. Meaning from 1st to 29th April, I could have put that money in TNG Go+ or stashaway simple to earn some additional interest right?
*
Yes. Use Epf i-Akaun for deposit, eventhough my such deposits were credited the next day(even on weekend), safer to do it on 27/28th instead of 29th which is Saturday, and Monday 1May is a holiday.

Sometimes it's delayed....

So u kinda taking risk...

Since they also mentioned maximum 3 days to reflect in your account 🙏

QUOTE(ronnie @ Apr 28 2023, 10:46 AM)
as long as the deposit shows <30-Apr-2023, my deposit should still earn from May 2023 onwards.

So far what i have tested with iAkaun, it always posted next day whether deposited on weekday or weekend.

1 day before last date of the month to qualified  icon_rolleyes.gif

U mean like for this month April, deposit must be posted by 29/4, not 30/4?

yes.

something like that...

that's why to be safe... always deposit at least 3 to 5 days before end of the month  icon_rolleyes.gif

Ya, i know that to be safe it should be posted few days b4 last day.
But last day is still last day of the month like 30April, 31May etc, not 1 day b4.

bettter to withdraw and dump into epf and asm?

If u can withdraw from epf at anytime n it gives better than the mortgage rate, why not? When it is no longer so can always put them back. 1% diff is like 4k gains.
