Check your FGTS benefit now
The Fundo de Garantia por Tempo de Serviço or FGTS is a benefit guaranteed by the government to all workers with a formal contract.
In short, it seeks to ensure that employees are fired without just cause. Incidentally, companies are obliged to contribute to the FGTS.
Therefore, many people want to know if there is a possibility of withdrawal. Did you know that it is possible to do this by CPF? See in today's article how to consult FGTS by CPF!
How to query FGTS by CPF?
First, let's make a brief summary of how the FGTS works. In this sense, the Severance Indemnity Fund is a benefit that is an obligation of companies. That is, contractors must deposit the amount of 8% of the employee's salary at Caixa Econômica Federal on a monthly basis.
Thus, in the event of dismissal without just cause, the employee is entitled to withdraw the severance pay. In addition, there may also be a termination fine between 20% and 40%.
In addition, the FGTS offers the birthday withdrawal, for example. This withdrawal is an option given to workers to redeem the money even without being fired. However, in that case they are helpless if they are fired without just cause.
In this way, see now how you can consult the FGTS by CPF. Read on!

How to check the FGTS balance by CPF?
In short, to check your FGTS balance, just follow the same steps. That is, all the forms mentioned above also lead to the balance of the benefit.
Who is entitled to FGTS?
In principle, as already mentioned, all Brazilian workers with a formal contract can receive the FGTS. In addition, domestic, temporary, independent, rural and harvest workers are also included in the benefit.
In addition, there are some conditions for withdrawing the FGTS. Check them all out before checking your balance:
- Dismissal without just cause;
- Termination of the temporary employment contract determinedly;
- Retirement;
- Inactive account;
- Workers over 70 years of age;
- If the employer goes bankrupt;
- Emergency situations such as public calamity and natural disasters.
In addition, the FGTS still offers the birthday withdrawal. With it, you can withdraw your balance regardless of the cases mentioned above. For this, you must choose the modality in each year. If you regret it, it will only be possible to change it after another year. Therefore, think carefully. Incidentally, the government has already released the anniversary-looting calendar. Look:
