When will the 2024 FGTS Profit be released? ▼

The FGTS Profit is an annual event, which means that every year the government distributes a portion of the profit from the Guarantee Fund to contributing workers.
Each year uses the previous year as its base year, meaning that in 2024 the profits obtained in 2023 will be paid.
The disclosure of the amounts achieved usually occurs between July and August, so in these months you will know everything about the amounts to be paid.

Who is entitled? ▼

To be entitled to FGTS Profit is very simple, since you just need to be a contributing worker with the Severance Pay Guarantee Fund system.
This means that it is necessary to have a balance in the account during the base year.
Therefore, in 2024, workers who contributed throughout 2023 will be entitled.

How to receive? ▼

To receive FGTS Profit, no great effort is required, since the installments to which each worker is entitled are automatically deposited into the account.
This means that after the disclosure of amounts and payment dates, the amounts equivalent to the worker's balance will go to their account.
Therefore, it is important that you have access to your FGTS account to check the deposit.

Is it possible to withdraw profits individually? ▼

It is very common for many workers to believe that they will have access to their FGTS profit as soon as it is deposited into their account.
However, it is worth mentioning that this is not quite the case, since after being deposited into the account, the FGTS Profit becomes part of the total balance.
Therefore, this can only be withdrawn together with the total amount, following the common rules for withdrawal from the Guarantee Fund.

What is FGTS Profit? Learn about the main additional benefit of FGTS

It is common knowledge that the FGTS assists the Federal Government in many issues, especially related to the housing and education sectors.

This means that the amounts deposited by companies to employers in the FGTS account assist the government until they are withdrawn by the holder.

Aiming to benefit workers and help build a balance, FGTS Profit is paid every year.

This is an additional benefit, paid through the distribution of total profits to all workers who have contributed in the base year.

This distribution considers the total value of the worker's account, so the higher the balance, the greater the profit obtained and deposited.

To receive it, there is no need to carry out any procedure, since the deposit occurs automatically in the FGTS account.
