PR1MA Housing Withdrawal
Realise Your Dreams Of Owning A House
EPF members can take advantage of your existing and future EPF savings in Akaun Sejahtera to purchase your first house under the Malaysia People's Housing Programme (PR1MA). Start the initial steps by ring-fencing your account so that your next contributions will go to your new home.

What You Should Know
This withdrawal is strictly for the financing of PR1MA house and payment will be made directly to the financial institution.
If your Akaun Sejahtera balance is less than the monthly payment amount requested, the EPF will pay the full amount in your Akaun Sejahtera (subject to a minimum payment of RM50).
All other pre-retirement withdrawals under Akaun Sejahtera will be restricted.
The restriction will be terminated when the member reaches age 55; makes a Pensionable Employees/Incapacitation/Leaving the Country Withdrawal/Death Withdrawal; or with written instruction from the financial institution.
If your home is sold through foreclosure, the restrictions on your Akaun Sejahtera savings will remain unless with written permission from the financial institution.
The EPF is not responsible for any late payments or non-payments due to non-contribution or the freezing of your account.
Upon reaching age 55 and qualifying for Retirement Withdrawal, you are responsible for settling the outstanding loan with the financial institution for your PR1MA house.
