When will the deceased member's CPF savings be paid to me if no nomination was made?
If no nomination is made, the deceased member’s CPF savings will be transferred to the Public Trustee's Office (PTO) for distribution according to intestacy or Muslim Inheritance laws. The transfer will typically take place within 17 working days after the Board is notified of the member's death.
 
The PTO will contact the beneficiaries with instructions on how to claim the funds. Beneficiaries will need to provide documentation to prove their relationship with the deceased member to the PTO. The entire processing time can take up to six months and it involves an administrative fee, which will be deducted from the deceased member's CPF savings.
