The Severance Indemnity Fund (FGTS) was created with the aim of protecting workers dismissed without just cause, by opening an account linked to the employment contract. At the beginning of each month, employers deposit into accounts opened at Caixa, on behalf of employees, the amount corresponding to 8% of each employee's salary.

The FGTS consists of the total of these monthly deposits and the amounts belong to employees who, in some situations, may have the balance deposited in their names. In this sense, in April, the emergency withdrawal of the FGTS released by the government will begin. Caixa intends to release this feature to millions of Brazilians.
Therefore, in addition to the early release of the FGTS, other economic measures were taken, such as the anticipation of the 13th INSS salary and the expansion of the payroll loan margin. In this way, Provisional Measure nº 1,105 published in the Official Gazette of the Union allows the withdrawal of up to R$ 1,000 per worker until December 15, 2022, prioritizing accounts related to extinct work contracts and later to other linked accounts, also starting with the one with the lowest balance.
If the worker does not want to withdraw the FGTS, he must request the cancellation of the credit until the 10th of November, even after crediting the savings account at Caixa He has. To check the amount available, you must access the FGTS application or the Caixa website. The query can also be made at bank branches and on the FGTS website, however, it will only be available from April 8th.
Through the FGTS application, it will be possible to see the amount that will be credited, in which deposit this amount will be and decide whether or not you want to receive the amounts. If the answer is no, it is possible through the application to request the return of the money made available to the FGTS account. The app is available for both iOS and Android.
The calendar for withdrawing the benefit will follow the order of the worker's month of birth. Check out:
