Temporary Suspension of 2-Pot Withdrawals

1 min read

The Government Employees Pension Fund (GEPF) wishes to inform its members that the submission of savings withdrawal applications will be temporarily suspended from 7 October to 21 October 2025. This pause is necessary to allow the Fund to update its systems with the recently implemented actuarial factors used to calculate members’ benefits.

During this time, members will not be able to submit new savings withdrawal applications through the self-service platforms. However, all other benefit payments and services will continue as normal.

The GEPF sincerely apologises for any inconvenience this may cause and appreciates members’ patience and understanding as we complete these important updates. The savings withdrawal functionality will be reinstated on 22 October 2025, once the updates have been successfully completed.

For further information, members are encouraged to visit the GEPF website, contact the Call Centre, or reach out to their nearest GEPF Office.
