Those workers who have forgotten the money can withdraw it through the FGTS (Fundo de Garantia do Tempo of Employee) application, regardless of age. In addition, the funds can be withdrawn by beneficiaries who have not yet withdrawn their share of Pasep in Banco do Brasil or PIS in Caixa, and who have transferred these amounts to the FGTS.

How can I withdraw my salary bonus?

The employee can withdraw the quota and check the exact amount that will be received directly through the official FGTS application. However, cash withdrawals can only be made until June 1, 2025.

What happens if the benefit is not withdrawn within the deadline?

All beneficiaries have a five-year period to withdraw the released salary bonus amount. But, if it has not yet occurred during the current payment schedule, it is necessary to wait for the next calendar to be able to use these funds.
