Check your FGTS using the app

The easiest and most complete way to consult the FGTS by CPF is through app. However, it is also possible to check the FGTS balance through the official Caixa Econômica Federal website. To do this, it is necessary to inform the NIS (PIS/Pasep), which can be found on the work card or old statements, and use a password registered by the worker. 

The website offers the option to recover your password if necessary. This platform shows registration data and transactions made in the account over the last six months. In addition, you can register to receive FGTS information via text message or email. 

In-person consultation 

For those who prefer the traditional method, the consultation can still be done in person at Caixa Econômica Federal branches. Just go to the service desk or a service station and make the consultation using your Citizen Card, as long as you have the password on hand. This option is useful for those who do not have easy access to the internet or prefer direct contact with an attendant. 

Thus, the ease of access to information is a reflection of the commitment of the government and financial institutions to make workers' lives easier. Whether through apps, the Caixa website or in person, checking the FGTS is a simple and straightforward process. 

Therefore, it is worth highlighting that it is important for workers to regularly monitor the balance of their FGTS accounts, ensuring that their rights are being preserved and that they can better plan their financial future.
