during his time, the CPF has to wait for the last CPF contribution to come in before matapos yung process took them a month. But I inquired sa CPF the process and here it is.

CPF Contributions are payable for all wages due and granted to the employee up to the last working day. Hence, the employer needs to contribute CPF contributions.
Your employer may credit your last working contribution into your CPF account. Should the amount be credited before the approval of your CPF withdrawal application, we will make payment to you after
the approval of the application. However, if the last working contribution be credited to your CPF account after the approval of the application, you can inform us in writing to make a supplementary
payment to you.
Alternatively, your employer can obtain a Form W57 (form for employer to issue the last month's contribution directly to employee) from our Customer Service Officer at any of our CPF Offices for employer's completion. Thereafter please mail us the completed Form W57 and we will proceed with his CPF withdrawal application as usual.
The Board will make payment of any outstanding tax liabilities that you have to Inland Revenue Authority of Singapore (IRAS) before the remaining CPF funds (if any) are disbursed to you. As such your funds will be automatically transferred to IRAS upon the approval of your withdrawal application.
You may refer to our withdrawal advice which we sent out when we made payment to you or approach IRAS regarding to your tax liabilities with their email address of iras@iras.gov.sg.
