Applying for FGTS in advance may be the best solution for those who need quick cash. If you need to settle a debt, down payment on an apartment or car, the personal loan secured by the FGTS is the best option.
The anticipation of the FGTS is like a loan that allows you to anticipate your birthday withdrawal by up to 10 years (it may vary depending on the bank). That way, it is not necessary to wait for the month of your birthday to withdraw the amounts from the guarantee fund.
Taking out the loan now, you can receive the amounts within 1 business day and return it with interest to the financial institution.

What is FGTS?
The FGTS (Investment Guarantee Fund) corresponds to 8% of the worker's salary. This amount is deducted from the salary and is deposited every month by the company in the employee's guarantee fund.
The Severance Indemnity Fund is nothing more than the total of these deposits that are deposited by the employer every month. This amount is guaranteed by the CLT and belongs to the employee. However, there are some rules for the worker to withdraw the FGTS.
In the case of FGTS Anticipation, the modality must be “birthday withdrawal”. This type of modality allows the employee to receive a portion of the FGTS every year, in the month of his birthday.
How to apply for FGTS Advance?
Nowadays, more than 70 financial institutions are authorized by Caixa Econômica Federal to make loans available with advance payment of the FGTS as guarantee.
The BMG bank, which is one of the best known banks in Brazil, makes it possible to anticipate the birthday withdrawal by up to 10 years. The personal loan secured by FGTS from BMG bank has a rate of 1.89% per month.
After the request, the amount will fall into the account within 1 business day.
There are other financial institutions that provide this service, such as C6 Bank, Caixa Econômica Federal, Banco do Brasil, Sicredi and Banco Pan.
If you have an account at one of these institutions, you can access the App or the bank's website to carry out a loan simulation. Thus, you are aware of the service conditions (rates and up to how many years you can anticipate).
If you do not have an account at any of these banks, check whether your bank is authorized by Caixa to provide this type of service.

How to join the birthday-withdrawal modality?
