Previously only on Caruman KWSP/skim yang diluluskan.

This one can be added to premium insuran nyawa category as well, based on my understanding la.

Previous got both EPF and Life Insurance. Then the Nobita split into 2 separate limits.

Hello, I'm new to this thread. Can i ask if this is official info? I always thought EPF dividend is calculated by number of days. If it's true they only calculate from 1 day before last date of the month, then there is no point for me to self contribute early of the month?

I have been self contributing early in the month like 1st or 2nd days... so based on your info, i rugi like 28 days of interest that i could have earn from the bank 😅
*
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.
*
Correct. Money must be inside EPF the entire last day of the month, so payment must be made 1 day before last day

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 correct

For example : month of June 2023, Transfer the money on 12.01am, 28June, then it will be reflected in your EPF account on 11.50pm, 30 June 2023. (because 29.6.23 is a public holiday)
If you transfer your money on 29 June2023, it will only be credited to your account on 3July 2023, and is considered as July contribution, not  June2023 contribution.

Hope that helps.

1.0 Bank in from Public Bank online on Jun 27, reflected as Jun 28 on Jun 29

2.0 Bank in from Public Bank online on Jun 28, reflected as Jun 30 on Jul 1 because Jun 29 is holiday.

3.0 Bank in from Public Bank online on Jun 29, reflected as Jun 30 on Jul 1.

Pissing off all the T20 that self contribute to rm100k max and profit indirectly siphoned to help the syariah department.

Plenty of better places to park my fund than continued to be dijajah by this policy

Still pissed 😡😡😡
*
The fact remains, Conventional and Syariah also underpaid at 5.x%. Both should've been 6.x%

if you go max RM100k, you can lose RM300++ without counting your days
simply park in KDi first not difficult
Yes imagine how much EPF gained every month...millions of free money in interest loss
whoa inio tak boleh kontrol u better quickly masuk first
bro  you deposited 31.12.24 and captured in EPF as 1.1.25?
isnt that a 1 month loss of interest?
For Jan 2025 EPF would  only pay 1day interest to your money, no?

you advise us to deposit RM100k on last day 31.1.2025???

i wont take the risk, nanti  rugi Rm300+ buta buta

i plan to masuk 27.1.2025

For self contribution I was thinking if someone deposits RM8,333 every last day of the month and then takes it out first day of the month, and for all other days in between keeps it in funds like Rize, Boost or TNG, then essentially they'd enjoy the EPF dividend plus the daily interest outside.

One way to boost the 6% dividend to 9% or so... or an extra RM500 in dividends.

Condition being you have over rm1 million in EPF lah.
*
How can 1 extra day a month boots 6% to 9%?

QUOTE(sweetpea123 @ Jan 27 2025, 08:18 PM)
8pm - deposited via website, still NOT reflected
8.15pm - tried via app, still NOT reflected

Pop-up receipt says 3 working days. Will update again
*
It should reflect on Jan 29 as Jan 28

Done deposit 2500 via iAkaun on 29Jan(CNY1), checked on 30Jan evening not reflected in iAkaun yet, checked again on 31Jan 1am the 2500 reflected & credited on 30Jan, so it is t+1 even on CNY holidays.

Most heavy load work is automated. But i'm surprised my deposit from public bank on Jan 29 not reflected today. All the while it was T+2 and recorded as T+1

If not reflected today, you lose whole month of interest because the 1st day of interest would be 28 Feb

Tomorrow or anytime still can. Most important is the timestamp recorded as Jan.

It better be Jan 30-31. First time kena more than 1 day with public bank.

I think they're processing now. My quota reset to 100k, i.e. it says i can put in 100k this year.

Around 70% not withdrawn their account 3 BUT MoF Minister says RM11.6b from Account 3  have been withdrawn as of Nov 27???

people who dont want their money locked in EPF will withdraw from account 3 instantly lo. I personally know 2 unrelated parties enjoying their EPF money not for necessities, where 1 in his late 40s simply refused to work because govt allow EPF withdrawals after covid.

Hi, what is max % for self elect employee EPF contribution above 11%? Or is there a maximum extra amount?

Note: I already max out 100k per year. Not sure whether this matter.

Leave aside X for income tax, Y for socso, Z for any other deductions/buffers. The leftover can be EPF'ed

But realistically Not many people willing to go such high percentage...

Not sustainable....

Around 30% probably got... Here there....

Higher than that, very slim...

Me very slim. Went for 77% (prefer multiples of 11% to simplify reverse calculations). Disaster stroke after that. Haha.
