No, you cannot early withdraw all your EOBI funds. The
Employees Old-Age Benefits Institution (EOBI) does not allow early withdrawal
of funds under any circumstances. The only way to withdraw your EOBI funds is
when you reach the age of retirement, become totally disabled, or die.
If you need to access your EOBI funds before retirement,
you can apply for a loan against your EOBI account. The loan amount will be
limited to 50% of your accumulated balance, and you will have to repay the loan
with interest within a specified period of time.
You can also apply for a lump sum withdrawal of your EOBI
funds if you are permanently migrating abroad. However, you will have to meet
certain eligibility criteria, such as having completed at least 15 years of
insurable employment in Pakistan.
If you are considering early withdrawal of your EOBI
funds, I recommend that you consult with a financial advisor to understand the
implications of this decision. Early withdrawal of EOBI funds can have a
negative impact on your retirement savings, so it is important to make sure
that you are making the best decision for your financial future.

Your EOBI Funds:
- Apply for a loan or lump sum withdrawal from the EOBI website or through a regional office.
