Is it ok if my OA balance drop to below $20k this month? May I know if there will be penalty or interest charged? (Will have a deduction of $7k coming up & just realised my OA only has $22k now) 🙏🏻

I will have $20k coming back from tbills end of December... so balance will go up above $20k again.. just that for a few weeks in dec, the balance will be less than $20k..

I think cpf will not allow the 7k to go through.. anything below 20k transaction will not go through.

Simi penalty? CPF is not bank, no minimum sum required.

You wipe till $0 also can.

You just lose out on the 3.5% interest on your first $20K OA.

Your OA savings earn risk-free interest of 2.5% annually, which allows you to accumulate more funds in your OA for future retirement or housing needs. *Additional 1% is paid on the first $60,000 across all CPF accounts, which is capped at $20,000 for the OA.
