The Service Time Guarantee Fund (FGTS) is one of the main financial protection tools for Brazilian workers, providing an essential resource in situations of layoffs or emergencies. Recently, there was an important update related to the FGTS that can significantly impact workers' balances.
With efficient management and transparency in the application of the fund's resources, new opportunities for beneficiaries to receive funds arise. In this article, we will discuss how this update can increase the amount available to workers and how you can track this information through the Caixa Econômica Federal app.
Increase in the Available FGTS Amount
Recently, the FGTS announced a profit distribution that could result in significant additional amounts for workers. On average, beneficiaries could receive more than R$1,500, depending on the balance in their accounts and the amount of profits generated. This distribution results from the income obtained from the fund's investments, which will now be passed on to workers. The increase in the amount available is a response to the need to offer a fairer and more tangible return to those who have contributed to the FGTS over the years.
This measure reflects a government strategy to improve fund management and increase transparency regarding investment performance. By redistributing profits, the FGTS seeks to recognize the importance of the resources deposited by workers and provide an additional benefit. The positive financial impact for beneficiaries can help alleviate economic pressures and promote better financial planning.
Profit distribution is based on the individual balance of each account. Therefore, workers with larger balances may see a larger distribution amount. This adjustment seeks to ensure that additional benefits are proportional to the amount deposited, promoting an equitable approach to profit redistribution.
According to government estimates, for every R$ 1 thousand present in the FGTS balance at the end of last year, the worker should receive approximately R$ 26.93.

Access to Information via the Caixa App
To facilitate access to information on the distribution of FGTS profits, the Caixa Econômica Federal app offers specific features that allow workers to check updated amounts directly on their mobile devices. Through the app, it is possible to check the additional amount that the worker receives and access a detailed history of movements in the FGTS account.
The app also allows users to run simulations to understand the financial impact of profit distributions on their accounts. These tools help workers better plan their finances by providing a clear and accessible overview of available resources. The app’s interface is intuitive, making it easy to navigate and access relevant information.
In addition to checking amounts and history, the Caixa Econômica Federal app offers options for managing FGTS funds in a practical way. This includes information on the types of withdrawals available and the conditions for each type of use, such as purchasing real estate or emergency situations. With these features, the app makes the FGTS management process more efficient and transparent for users.
