The Employees Provident Fund (EPF) will make the advance payment starting January 26, said the Prime Minister, Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin in a press conference today.
He said the advance was to improve the i-Sinar facility, especially for those who face challenges due to MCO and the flood disaster that is currently affecting the country.
“The government has been informed that the EPF will make an advance payment of up to RM1,000 for the i-Sinar category 2 application,” he said.
He said the process will be simplified where members only need to declare on their own that they have set criteria and submit an application online.
