Check EPayslip Loan Affordability in the GoGPayslip Portal
The GoGPayslip “My Affordability” section can help eligible government employees review the amount available for loan repayment based on their payroll information. Instead of relying only on your basic salary, checking your affordability details gives you a clearer view of existing deductions and the amount available for a loan.
You can access this information through your GoG ePay Services account. Below you’ll find the steps to check “My Affordability,” understand the information shown in the report, and troubleshoot common problems.
What Is “My Affordability”?
“My Affordability” is a payroll-related section that shows information about your available affordability for loan repayment. It can help you review your salary and existing deductions before applying for a loan.
The amount shown can change when your salary or payroll deductions change, so it is useful to check the latest information before making a financial application.
How to Check “My Affordability” on GoG ePay Services
You can check your affordability by logging in to the GoG ePay Services portal and opening the relevant affordability section.
Step 1: Visit the Official GoG ePay Services Portal
Open the GoG ePay Services portal using its official website address. Make sure you are accessing the genuine portal before entering your employee number, password, or other account details.
Step 2: Log In to Your Account
Enter your GoG ePay Services login details and sign in to your account. If you cannot remember your password, Reset Your Password instead of repeatedly entering incorrect details.

Step 4: Check Your Affordability Details
Review the information displayed on the page. Depending on the information available through your account, it can include your affordability amount and payroll deductions that affect your available loan capacity.
Check the figures carefully, especially if you are preparing to apply for a loan.

If the portal provides a download option, select it to save your affordability report. Keep the report in a secure place if you need it for a loan application or future reference.
How Is “My Affordability” Calculated?
Your affordability is connected to your payroll information and existing financial deductions. The exact calculation can depend on the applicable payroll and loan rules.
Salary and Existing Deductions
Your salary provides the starting information used when reviewing your available affordability. Existing deductions can reduce the amount available for additional loan repayment.
This is why two employees with similar salaries may not necessarily have the same available affordability.
Available Amount for Loan Repayment
The affordability information helps show the amount that may be available for loan repayment after considering relevant payroll deductions.
The amount shown on your account should be treated as the current payroll-based affordability figure rather than a guaranteed loan amount.
Why Your Affordability Changes
Your affordability changes when your salary, allowances, deductions, or other payroll information changes. If you recently started a new deduction or your payroll information was updated, the amount shown in “My Affordability” may also change.
What Can You Check in the Affordability Report?
The affordability report can provide useful information before you apply for a loan. Review each section carefully rather than looking only at the final amount.
Available Affordability Amount
The report shows the amount currently available for loan repayment based on the information recorded in the payroll system. Use the latest report when reviewing your borrowing options.
Existing Payroll Deductions
Existing deductions can affect your affordability. Review them carefully to make sure the information shown matches your current payroll records. You can also review your latest deductions on the ePayslip Mobile App to quickly compare your payroll details. If you notice an unexpected deduction, investigate it before proceeding with a new loan application.
Loan Repayment Information
The report can help you understand how existing repayment deductions affect your available affordability. Checking this information first can help you avoid relying on an outdated salary figure when planning a loan application.
Benefits of Checking “My Affordability”
Checking your affordability before applying for a loan gives you useful information about your current payroll position.
Check Your Available Loan Capacity
The affordability figure can give you an indication of the repayment capacity reflected in your payroll information. Remember that affordability does not automatically mean that a loan application will be approved.
Review Your Payroll Deductions
The report allows you to review deductions that affect your available salary. Regularly checking your payslip and affordability information can help you identify unexpected changes.
Plan Before Applying for a Loan
Checking “My Affordability” before applying can help you understand your current repayment position. You can then review the proposed loan amount and repayment terms against your available affordability before submitting an application.
Tips for Using “My Affordability”
A few simple checks can help you get more useful information from the affordability section.
Check Your Latest Payslip
Before reviewing affordability, Check and Download Your ePayslip. It helps you compare your current salary and deductions with the information being used for your affordability details.
Review Your Deductions Carefully
Look at each deduction shown on your payslip or affordability report. If something appears incorrect or unfamiliar, contact the appropriate payroll support channel before relying on the figure for a loan application.
Keep Your Affordability Report
If the portal allows you to download the report, save a copy for your records. Avoid sharing the report unnecessarily because it may contain personal salary and payroll information.
“My Affordability” Not Showing or Not Working?
Sometimes affordability information may not appear correctly because of account, payroll, or portal issues.
Affordability Details Are Missing
If the “My Affordability” section is empty or does not show the expected information, first check your latest payslip.
If your payroll information is available but affordability details are still missing, contact the relevant support channel for assistance.
Payslip Information Is Incorrect
If your salary or deductions are incorrect on your ePayslip, the affordability figure may also be affected.
Report incorrect payroll information to the appropriate employer or payroll support office and wait for the records to be corrected before relying on the affordability amount.
Login or Portal Problems
If you cannot access the portal, check your login details and internet connection first.
For a page that does not load properly, try refreshing the page or accessing the portal again later. If the problem continues, contact the relevant ePay Services support channel.
