Hi all.

I would like to confirm if students can invest in EPF for their retirement needs in the future.

I phoned EPF this morning and asked if a student (now 20 years old) who is about to enter university can open an EPF account and begin investing.

The EPF customer service representative said that I can begin investing in EPF now, even though I don't have a job.

I am afraid that sounds too good to be true, so I would like to seek confirmation here.

Anyone here begin investing in EPF when they are students who are not yet working?

Yes I think you can , just go open an account with them, normally an employer opens it for you but I would put it somewhere where is more liquid in case you need the money in the future. Not sure if can withdraw till 55 .
