Although Caixa is the FGTS manager, you should not make the request through the bank's app. In fact, interested parties should access the Fund's official app (available for Android and iOS). Then, simply follow these steps:
- First, log in to your account;
- Then select “My withdrawals”;
- Choose the option “Other withdrawal situations – Public emergency” and click on one of the authorized cities;
- Send a photo of your identity document and an updated proof of address, issued up to three months before the emergency decree;
- Provide the details of a bank account (this can be from Caixa or another institution);
- Confirm your request;
- Please allow up to 5 business days for a response.
