"EPF is confident the amount that can be accessed from i-Sinar together with the maximum withdrawal of RM500 a month from Account 2 under the i-Lestari facility (launched in April), will enable affected members to fend for themselves in the short term," it said in a statement today.
I-Sinar is an extension of the i-Lestari withdrawal facility which has now reached an estimated total withdrawal of RM30 billion and will end in March 2021.
Applications for i-Sinar can be made from December and the amount will be credited into EPF members’ bank accounts starting January.
