    I am 58 year-old employee working for a media organization and a contributing member to the EPF since April 2014. Although I withdrew my EPF in 2015 from the contributions through my previous employers, I am at present in need of an urgent financial support. I need to settle the school fee for my two schooling children (My son does his A/Levels at S. Thomas’ College, Mount Lavinia while my daughter studies in grade 8 at Ladies’ College, Colombo. Owing to salary and other constraints, I have not been able to pay their school (term) fees for this term. If failed to do so, they will not be allowed to sit for their term exams and would not be allowed to enter their respective schools from January next year until the fees are paid up. Therefore, I appreciate your swift response to this effect at your earliest.
