COVID-19: Guidelines To Access One-Off FNPF Relief

The two main modes of application submission are– employer portal and the myFNPF App which will be available from Monday April 26, when the scheme opens.

Below are the guidelines:

• Affected members can access $220 from their General Account, with Government providing top up for those that have insufficient GA balance.
• The FNPF is working closely with employers to identify those members who have been affected but are not currently assisted through any of the active COVID-19 phases.
• If members are applying through the employer portal, then they must complete the application form and have it forwarded to their employer via email, viber, WhatsApp or any other online mode.
• The application forms can be accessed on the Fund website or from any of its branch or agency. Only members whose contributions have been paid up to March 2021 will be eligible for this relief.
• Members need to provide a valid photo identification and ensure their payment details are correct (bank, M-PAiSA, BillPaid). Incorrect information will only delay the payment of relief funds.
• Members applying on the mobile app, will not be required to complete the form.
• Members are encouraged to get more information on this relief from the FNPF website or visit FNPF social media pages.
• Contact lines are also open for direct communication.

The one-off lockdown relief will close on May 3.
