The provident fund loan limit is related to the following aspects:
1. It is related to the maximum loan limit of the local provident fund. The provident fund in each region has a limit on the maximum loanable amount. It does not mean that customers can apply for as much as they want. The maximum loanable amount of provident fund loans in most cities is only a few hundred thousand. For details, please refer to the notice of the local provident fund center.
2. Relevant to the provident fund account balance. As long as the maximum loan amount of the provident fund is not exceeded, the larger the balance in the customer's provident fund account, the higher the provident fund loan amount that can be applied for. Under normal circumstances, the provident fund loan limit is 10 to 20 times the provident fund account balance. The calculation method is different in each region. Customers can consult the local provident fund center. Provident fund centers in some areas can determine the sum of the provident fund account balances of both spouses. In this case, it is indeed good news for married customers who want to buy a house. They can use the provident funds in the couple's accounts to apply for a provident fund loan. Maybe we can increase the amount of provident fund loans available and reduce the pressure on housing loans.
3. It is related to the provident fund payment base. Provident fund centers in some areas will stipulate that the monthly payment of a customer's provident fund loan shall not exceed half of the provident fund deposit base, which will also affect the customer's provident fund loan limit.
4. It is related to your monthly income. When applying for a provident fund loan, the provident fund center will pay attention to the customer's income like commercial banks, and will require the customer's monthly income to be at least twice the monthly provident fund payment. If the customer's other conditions are relatively good, then the personal monthly income The higher it is, the higher the provident fund loan you can apply for. In addition, the higher the customer's monthly income, it also means that their provident fund payment base will also increase, and the accumulation of provident fund account balance will also accelerate, which also has a positive effect on increasing the provident fund loan limit.
5. It depends on whether it is the first home. If a customer is applying for a provident fund loan to buy a second home, the provident fund loan amount for the second home in some areas will be lower than that for the first home. The details are subject to the notice of the local provident fund center.
6. It is related to local policy preferences. In some areas, the upper limit of the provident fund loan amount will be increased for some special families. This is mainly to reduce the living pressure of some families. Customers can consult the local provident fund center to find out whether there are corresponding preferential policies.
