How does CPF Annual Limit apply if I hold two jobs? What to do if exceed limit?

The CPF Annual Limit is $37,740 (both employee and employer's mandatory contribution). Because I hold two jobs, I found out that I had contributed more than the $37,740 last year. However, no refund was made out from my CPF account till date, despite exceeding the limit.

​

Does anyone know how and when does the CPF Annual Limit apply to me if I hold two jobs? I will exceed the annual limit this year, and I'm not sure what I should do.

CPF Annual Limit is applied to mandatory contribution per employment basis, i.e. since you hold 2 jobs, each employer will compute and make your mandatory contribution independently, and hence possible for total mandatory contribution to exceed $37740.

​

However, if your total OW exceed the prevailing OW ceiling, you may apply to limit your portion of contributions. Refer to the CPF FAQ on this matters:
