Preparation materials: first, prepare the retirement certificate, personal ID card and household registration book of the original unit.

Detailed reasons:

I bring my unit retirement certificate, personal ID card and household registration book to the provident fund management center where the unit handles the housing provident fund;

The staff will review the materials you submitted, and after confirming that they are correct, they will ask you to apply for a provident fund savings card at the bank wound where you paid the provident fund (the provident fund center has a bank window);

Material review is generally five working days, and can be directly extracted from the provident fund management center after approval.

Summary: Housing provident fund can be taken out. I went to the housing provident fund management office and asked them what procedures they needed to take out the housing provident fund now, but only if my housing provident fund was paid over 1 year.
