Which platform workers should receive cpf contributions

For platform workers born in 1995 or later, their CPF contribution rates will slowly increase to match that of employees. They will also receive the platform operator share of CPF contributions. 

Platform workers born before 1995 may opt in to increased CPF contributions. Once opted in, they will have the same CPF contribution rates as platform workers born in 1995 or later. Platform workers can opt in at any time, as there is no deadline to do so. Opt-in is irreversible. 

As CPF contribution rates depend on platform workers’ opt-in status, you will need to check your platform workers’ latest opt-in status before calculating their CPF contributions. 

The monthly query with CPF Board via Secured File Transfer Protocol (SFTP) will inform you of the latest opt-in status of your platform workers. There is no need to include platform workers born in or after 1995 in the query, as it is mandatory for them to make the increased CPF contributions. 

CPF Board will inform you of the opt-in status of your platform workers on the 20th of each month, via the monthly query.
