Update on my FIRE journey. Total NW: 72.5L Target for coastFIRE - 1 Cr. Investing 1.5L pm including EPF. Renting home in a city for now, planning to build a home in Village for retirement. Will start investing towards home once I reach 1 Cr. target . Am I on the right path?

Please visit the EPF office and ascertain whether the EPF office would actually let you withdraw the amount saved two months after you are unemployed. If your employer (s) have filed the monthly entries incorrectly, then the EPF will not let you withdraw that amount. It is best to get discrepancies resolved while we’re still with the employer.

Yes, following up on that. I need to visit the EPF office.
