New EPF Withdrawal Forms-Withdraw without employer signature

EPFO recently launched “New EPF Withdrawal Forms”, which are called as Form 19 UAN, Form 10C UAN and Form 31 UAN. Now, employees can withdraw EPF without the employer signature.

Important Notice-Now EPFO recently (February, 2017) launched a single form for EPF Withdrawal. Refer the post for the same at “EPF Composite Claim Form -Single form to withdraw EPF without employer“. A Single form is enough for EPF/EPS withdrawal.

Note

Earlier if you plan to withdraw your EPF balance, the process was too lengthy. However, now the employees, who have their UAN and activated it, may withdraw it by directly submitting to regional EPFO.

What are the conditions to avail this facility?

  • You must have UAN number activated.
  • You must linked your Aadhaar number with UAN.
  • You must provided your Bank details with UAN.
  • You KYC have been verified by your employer using digital signatures.

If you are meeting above four conditions, then you can withdraw EPF without the signature of your employer.

What are the facilities provided?

Using “New EPF Withdrawal Forms”, you can do the following activity.

  • Withdraw your EPF or apply for final settlement.
  • Withdraw your EPS benefit.
  • Make partial withdrawal, loan, or advance.

This “New EPF Withdrawal Forms” are easy to fill, as they require your basic data. You have to fill it and submit the same in regional EPFO Office directly. You don’t need your employer signature for the same.

New Form 19 (UAN)

Use this form to withdraw EPF amount when you quit your job due to retirement, resignation, disablement, termination, marriage, or permanent settlement abroad. The few conditions for submitting this form are as below.

  • If you are discharged from the service on receiving the compensation under the Industrial Dispute Act, 1947 or resigned from the job, but not employed in a company where EPFO not applicable, then you have to apply for EPF withdrawal only after two months of waiting period. Along with that, you have to declare about non-employment under any organization where you are having another EPF Account.

Now company is closed 2 years ago. No one to contact. My PF is not transferred because minimum one payment is required to do in Online portal, and also unable to withdraw the 1st PF account which is 4 years savings. If I ask 1st employer EPF office they say new member is showing in their MIS report and it’s in different EPF offfice. Here they say zero amount is showing for withdrawal. And also bank details update is are not completed by second employer error is showing.
    Sir, EPF officers say I have to take bank manager sign on manual claim form. But they are not saying which form no. I have to take signature. Please tell what are all the form no. I have to take signature.
    1. Bank details upadate verification pending
    2. Transfer is not done
    3. I want to claim full amount
    4. Can I take signature of other bank manager signature where my savings account is not there.
    I hope you can understand my situation. I am struggling from two and half years for withdrawal my money. No proper response from PF office, help desk

  11. Hi Basavaraj,

    I worked in a company(say A) for 4.5 years and moved to another company(say B) and worked there for 4 months ,due to personal reasons I left that job.
    Presently I am working in a company ,but this new company doesn’t support EPF.
    I want to withdraw my EPF from both of my previous companies but in EPFO portal there is no option to choose to withdraw from my first company, only option available is to withdraw form my second company(B) only.
    I can view both of my EPF/EPS contributions in EPFO passbook.
    Could you please guide me on what to do.

    Thanks
    Sravan

    1. Dear Sravan

      You have total service of 4 years 9 months .If your total amount is less than 50000 no tax else 10% tax.

Company ,at Mumbai. ,thereafter I left the job and started own business at bilaspur,c.g. as per record I had pf amounts more than 6 lakh .I had valid uan no. ,varified by addhar and linked with bank account. How can I withdraw my PF amount or transfer the amount to bilaspur regional epfo office,if possible.thanks sunil

  13. HI

    My claim has been rejected due to the following reason.
    1) CONTRIBUTION RECEIVED UPTO 02/2015 HENCE MEMBER SUBMIT THE CLARIFICAION OF DOL 2) CERTIFICATE A/B/C/D/E/F NOT ENCLOSED / SIGNED
    I was in Indian till Jan 2015, and then went onsite, so it makes sense that my last PF contribution was on Feb 2015.
    I resigned when I was onsite, last year October 2019. How do I prove these guys or explain them that is why the date of leaving and last PF date doesnt match. I have reached out to my employer for any ideas and also submitted an online greival form.

    Any guidance is much appreciated.

    Thanks
    Gopi

  17. Sir, there is an overlap of date of joining in my new company and date of exit from previous company. I am unable to transfer pf. This overlap is because I didn’t serve the notice period of my previous company. What can be done to claim or transfer pf amount from my previous pf?

  18. Dear Sir,
    I have left the job on 15th April, 2019 and now i can claim the EPF. My Joining date in 15th Oct, 2012 and now total duration is more then 5 years and TDS not to be deducted on withdrawal but still in online claim page there is a option indicating to upload Form 15G. so please confirm that whether i need to submit the Form 15G or ignore the option.

    I have a small doubt on EPS amount. In My UAN number i have 2 PF accounts, Old PF account EPS amount is 10,300.00/- and Present Company PF account EPS Amount is 7,747.00/-.

    I applied EPS amount in online, after 10 days i revived amount is 15,300.00/- which is less amount if we add both PF accounts EPS amount. Better to can i approach the PF office or Employer.

  38. HI,
    GM ,
    MR.BASAVRAJ SIR,
    I want to withdraw my full PF amount .
    Already KYC done.
    I want to ask you which documents are required to attach with aadhar based composite claim form to post direct resp.EPF office.

  39. Mr. Basavraj,

    I have following query and would like to request you to clarify the same.

    I have completed 5 years of consecutive service in 2 companies (A and B).
    A with 3.8 years and B with 2.7 years. PF balance amount of A was already transferred to B and contribution was continued till I left company B.

    Now, I have joined 3rd organization (C).

    Each organization has its separate PF number linked to a my single UAN number.

    At present, my Adhaar, PAN and bank details are KYC verified by my current employer (C). Now, I would like to withdraw my EPF and EPS both that was accumulated against my A and B employers since I have not yet transferred my PF amount of A and B to organization C.

    So, my questions are,

    (1) Can I withdraw my previous PF balance despite of being in service with organization C that maintains my different PF account?

    (2) My current salary account of organization C is with HDFC but employer C has eVerified ICICI bank account which I used to have as salary account of my first employer A.So, does that mean my bank details are KYC verified and it is not required to get KYC done for HDFC bank details as well?

    Regards,
    Prasad

    1. Dear Prasad,
      1) As all EPF accounts are linked to single UAN, you are not allowed to withdraw.
      2) Retain the KYC of Bank to be updated for the account which you want to retain forever. Otherwise, changing bank details will be cumbersome in future.

      1. Mr. Basavraj,

        Thanks for your feedback on this.

        1) Does that mean, I can ONLY transfer my previous PF balance to my current employer till I am not in service for consecutive 2 months?

        2) Lets say, I put down my papers and serving notice period for 2 months; in that case will I be eligible for withdraw claim for my current employer on the same day once my notice period ends?

        3) Should I ask my current employer to update the KYC to my salary account i.e. HDFC by uploading new set of documents for bank KYC instead of ICICI?

        Because I had already given them HDFC bank details required for KYC when I joined the current organization but I do not know from where did they get my first organization details.

        4) One more thing I have heard that, once the bank KYC is done next employer need not do the bank KYC as its been already done.Is that true?

        5) As far as bank account number is concerned; I have noticed that 2 leading zeros are missing for ICICI bank account which is mapped in EPFO portal even though I had given them correct details. Would that matter or cause any issue in case I would like to withdraw my PF balance in future by any chance? [Usually, leading zeros depict salary/saving account that is why]

        Regards,
        Prasad

          1. Mr. Basavraj,

            I have raised online PF transfer request using “Present Employer” option from EPFO portal this week and I have got one PDF acknowledgement regarding the same. But do I really need to handover this acknowledgement to my current employer after doing signature on it ?

            Or just raising online request would suffice the requirement?

            Regards,

  40. Dear BASAVARAJ,
    I am facing a problem for final settlement of my epf.
    As because in our city we are not getting our Addhar card. Without Addhar I can’t apply in online. Another problem is my last company has opened two EPF account in my single UAN no. How will I able to apply for final settlement.

  41. Dear BASAVARAJ,

    My AADHAR,PAN details are not able to link with UAN kyc stating not matching.
    But same are linked with income tax. with out any problem.

    1. Dear Sudhakar,
      Whether there is any name mismatch in PAN, Aadhaar with UAN? If so then correct at first in UAN then go ahead with linking. If everything is OK, then try to visit the concerned EPFO and link the same.

  42. Hi,
    I have applied for pf withdrawal through online. My claim got rejected stating pan and form 15g are not submitted. What has to be done after submitting claim through online. What documents are needed to be sent to pf office?

  43. Hi Basawaraj,
    I have left my job 2 months back and i am planning to raise PF Final Settlement (Form 19). I have overall 4 yrs of exp.
    I have linked my aadhar and bank account with UAN and is verified also. But when i tried to add PAN , its status is unverified as PAN Card has my name with initials expanded and UAN/aadhar/bank details have initials .
    When i tried to raise for PF Final Settlement by online it says 34.6% tax will be deducted as Tds. Is it possible for me to apply for PF Final Settlement Offline ie by sending PAN copy, Form 15G, aadhar copy , bank cancelled cheque , etc directly to PF Office so that Tds wont be deducted??

    1. Dear Raju,
      Avoiding TDS does not mean avoiding TAX. It is still taxable. If you are unable to link PAN, then no need to worry. Let them deduct TDS and you can later can claim it while filing ITR.

      1. Hi Basavaraj,
        Right. Since my tax liability for this fy is less than 2.5 lakhs, this pf amount can be excempted from tds. I have one more doubt. So i can go ahead with
        e the
        ccf with aadhar,
        pan card copy
        form 15g
        cancelled cheque
        and send it to the epfo office directly WITHOUT employers attestation?
        At least they should accept my application and can issue the refund with or without tds right ?
        PAN not verified status will it stops me from submitting PF Final Settlement application directly to PF Office WITHOUT the employer attestation?

  44. i have left the job in 2012 and now the company is closed now i have only pf no. and joining date only and in that no. the UAN also not Activated because of unliked of Adhaar kindly suggest.

  45. Hi,

  51. Hi Sir,

    I have been trying to withdraw my PF benefits through online procedure, but the claim is getting rejected due to the below reasons:
    1)Form 15G not submitted by member
    2)PAN Card copy not submitted by member.

    My PAN And Aadhar details have been verified in the UAN Portal. In that case, is it necessary to submit the above said documents offline?

    I had submitted the necessary documents to the EPFO office through my employer and have received the acknowledgement on 23rd February 2018. (Offline process). There are no further updates on this.

    Please advise on how to proceed.

    Can i submit form 19 uan

  56. I have been part of a software company since 2.4years and i have resigned , currently i’m on my notice period (60 days) by the end of it i will have a total of 2.6 years of experience. I have quit my job to pursue higher education in India .

    Note : 1) I will be working only after 3 years ( 2 years of higher education + 1 year gap now for preparation ).

    2) Current PF balance : 31896 ( Employee Share) + 9754 (Employer Share)
    22,123 ( Pension Amount )
    3) I’m not in urgent need of money however if the interest rate is negligible with PF i would prefer investing in a fixed deposit scheme which offeres better return.

    Please suggest ( Main concern ),
    1) if i should withdraw the PF amount or not?
    2) if its suggested to withdraw the PF amount then should i withdraw pension fund as well? I have heard ppl suggesting not to withdraw pension amount.
    What are the pros and cons of withdrawing pension amount. Kindly elaborate on this.

    Additional details regarding following are also much welcome.

    3) IS the withdrawn PF amount taxable?
    4) Upto what amount is it not taxable?
    5) If the amount is not withdrawn at what rate is the amount multiplied ( Interest rate )
    6) Procedure that i need to follow to withdraw the amount before i leave the company.

    Looking forward for your response , your answers would help me take informed decisions as i do not have much clarity about the procedure.
    Thanks a lot in Advance 🙂

    1. Sara-1) You will be eligible for withdrawal if you are out of job for more than 2 months.
      2) You can withdraw the both. However, as your service period is less than 10 years, you will not get the EPS full amount but only part of it.
      3) YES.
      4) Whole amount is taxable for you.
      5) It is as per current EPF interest rate.
      6) Contact your HR team.

  86. Hi,

    I want to know that if i want t withdraw my PF amount and unable to approach my previous employer and also bank account is not approved by him.

    Kindly suggest me the alternate way out.

  87. Thanks a ton Basu.
    But if My Previous Employer A does not get my DOE EPF and DOE EPS updated in the EPFO system and, I opt to follow the manual PF withdrawal process through my Current Employer B then I hope it should work.

    Once again thanks for all your help

    Regards
    NP

      1. Hi Basu,
        My employment with Employer A was terminated due to business reasons beyond my control on 15-March-2018. On this date my PF is falling short of 1 month to complete 5 years of continuous service. On 20-March-2018, I am going to join Employer B and can opt out of PF.

        A) Can I withdraw my full PF held with employer A post two months from my last working day

        B) Will my employment with employer B where I am going to opt out of PF will have any implication on my PF withdrawal

        c) Will my PF be taxable?

        I would appreciate your inputs

        Regards
        NP

          1. Thanks Basu.
            For Question 3) you mean although my PF with Employer A is falling short of 1 month of continuous service of 5 years, if I withdraw it after 2 months from my last working day with Employer A, the PF will be non taxable.

            Please confirm.

            NP

              1. OK Thanks. Just one more question Basu.
                If my new Employer B opens a New PF account and I don’t transfer my PF from Employer A to B.

                A) In this case, Can I still withdraw PF from Employer A after 2 months of my last day with Employer A taking into account that my PF with Employer A was falling short of 1 month for continuous service of 5 years and my employment was terminated by Employer A due to business reasons beyond my control.

                B) Will my PF be still non taxable in this case

                Many thanks in advance. Appreciate your help.

                Regards
                NP

                  1. Thanks Basu.
                    So in summary – My PF with Employer A (who has terminated my employment) although falling short of 1 month for 5 year continuous service can be withdrawn after 2 months from last working day (15-March).

                    Although I opt out of PF in case of my next employer B, I am going to be employed and salaried starting 20-March.

                    Do you think even in that case I will be able to withdraw full PF from Employer A after 2 months from last working day with Employer A
                    and will it be still non taxable.

                    You advice would really help.Thanks in advance
                    NP

                    1. Hi Basu,
                      Thanks for all your guidance so far. Just quick question before I proceed with my PF withdrawal. As mentioned earlier, my Company B had terminated my employment and at the end of my last day I am falling short of 1 month for 5 year continuous employment.

                      In the EPFO system, before I apply for PF withdrawal online,

                      A) Is it mandatory to have my company B to mention ‘Reason for Leaving’ as ‘Employment Terminated’ in the EPFO system

                      B) As the company B has stopped contributing to my PF post my last working day. I hope this would let the EPFO office know that I had left Company B. Is it still mandatory to have my company B to mention ‘Date of Leaving’ in the EPFO system.

                      C) Lastly, if my Company B does not get the above mentioned data filled in the EPFO system, Can I still withdraw my PF.

                      D) Alternately, should I get the PF form signed by PSU Bank Manager and apply manually for PF withdrawal? Would that be a better option?

                      Please advise.

                    2. Hi Basu,

                      All the required data in terms of my Aadhaar, PAN and Bank Account has been set up and approved in EPFO portal. Before I proceed to confirm my PF and EPS withdrawal online, I need your help

                      Quick recap of my case for reference as follows.

                      I had worked with Company A and then joined Company B. My employment in Company B was terminated due to business reasons beyond my reach. Company A and B have entered the respective DOJ and DOE of my PF and EPS in EPFO database. I had also transferred my PF and EPS from Company A to Company B and both the PF accounts falls under the same and unique UAN assigned to me. However, my continuous service of Company A and Company B is falling short of 1 month to complete 5 years of continuous service.

                      Now I had joined Company C almost immediately after last day at Company B. The Company C falls under employee provident act but I was allowed to opt out of the PF and I did so. Thus, no EPFO account maintained for Company C.

                      Further progress as follows:

                      I had recently logged in my EPFO account and my Company B has put the Reason of Leaving as ‘CESSATION (SHORT SERVICE)’.

                      I tried to select ‘CLAIM 31, 19&10C’ option to withdraw my PF by verifying my Bank Account. I was able to proceed further and select the option ‘PF AND PENSION WITHDRAWAL (FORM – 19&10C)’ and it gives me a message ‘ELIGIBLE FOR PF AND PENSION WITHDRAWAL’. I have moved further and keyed in other details such as residential address and got the OTP generated via Aadhaar to confirm the claim. However, I had not proceed further because I do not know how the Tax will be deducted.

                      Could you help me with the following questions?

                      1. Although my continuous service with Company A and B is falling short of 5 years and post that I am employed by Company C where I had opted not to maintain PF, I am eligible to withdraw my PF and EPS. Hope this understanding is correct.

                      2. Since my employment in Company B was terminated due to business reasons beyond my reach, the PF and EPS amount will be Tax Free. Hope this understanding too is correct.

                      3. While doing online withdrawal, once I enter the OTP and my claim gets submitted, is PF authority going to deduct any Tax at Source? If so, how much %?

                      4. I am not able to see any option on the online procedure to mention that my employment in Company B was terminated due to business reasons beyond my reach as we see on the manual form. In this case, how PF authority will understand that that my employment was terminated?

                      5. Having understood my case, should I go online for PF and EPS withdrawal or should I go for manual where I had seen the option for the withdrawal reason as ‘employment termination due to the cause beyond the control of the member’ ?

                      My sincere thanks for all your support and help so far.

                      Regards

  88. My account is set on EPFO site. Adhaar and PAN are approved by my previous Employer A and their ‘‘Online Verification Status’ is ‘Verified by UIDAI’ and ‘Verified by ITD’ respectively.

    a) Hope this should be fine although Adhaar and PAN are approved by my previous Employer A around 2 months ago and not by my Current Employer B

    My Bank Accounts too were approved by my previous Employer A around 2 months ago and their ‘Online Verification Status’ is reflected as ‘N/A’

    b) Hope this too should be fine.
    c) What does ‘N/A’ means? Is it ‘Not Applicable’ meaning ‘Online Verification Status’ is Not Applicable (Not Required) for Bank Account data?

    Further, in my Employment History, Dates of Joining (DOJ EPF and DOJ EPS) are available for my previous Employer A, but Date of Exit (DOE EPF and DOE EPS) are not available for Employer A
    Dates of Joining (DOJ EPF and DOJ EPS) are available for my Current Employer B

    I got my PF transferred from Employer A to B through manual process and the transfer is successfully reflected in PF passbook for Employer B

    d) Do I need to get Date of Exit (DOE EPF and DOE EPS) updated for my previous Employer A explicitly?
    If that is not done, will it affect my PF withdrawal process as I formally leave my current Employer B on 15-March-2018 and, DOE EPF & DOE EPS (which in this case will be 15-March-2018) gets updates by my current Employer B

    Apologies for a bit long query but would truly appreciate your response

    Regards

  89. Hi Basu,
    Your blog on EPFO withdrawal is very helpful. Thanks.
    I had worked with company A starting 15-April-2013 and left it on 13-Feb-2016.I had joined new Company B on 15-Feb-2016. I got my PF transferred from Company A to B. I was about to complete my 5 years of continuous service by 15-April-2018 but my service got terminated in Jan-2018 and my last working day with Company B is 15-March-2018. I am falling short of 1 month to complete my 5 years of continuous service.
    My questions are as follows,
    a) Can I withdraw my full PF after my Last Working Day of 15-March-2018 (even I am falling short of 1 month to complete my 5 years of continuous service.) since my service was terminated due to business reasons beyond my control,
    b) Would my PF be taxable in my situation explained above
    c) Do I need to wait for 2 months post my last working day of 15-March-2018 for PF withdrawal.

    Thanks

  91. Hi Sir,

    I have submitted form 13 to my present employer which they submitted to RPFO pune on 10-oct17.

    Under present employer member id
    Claim type : form 13(transfer in/same office)
    status : status is not available

    Do I need to contact my previous employer or I have to wait further.
    Kindly advice

      1. Just now my previous employer have confirmed that the transfer out has been processed from their end.
        They have provided me with annexure also and date of full and final settlement is 3 oct’17.
        Transfer to account is my present member id.

        Please advice.

  92. Dear Sir,

    While going for online withdrawal. I am seeing below options for claim processing. My total amount is over 50000 inc EPS.

    A). ONLY PF WITHDRAWAL(FORM 19)
    B). ONLY PENSION WITHDRAWAL(FORM 10C)

    Now I have some questions:
    1. If I go for option A, I assume I will get amount minus EPS(In this case it will be below 50K, So will this amount be taxable).
    2. What if I go for option A and after this financial year ends. Can I withdraw EPS amount again as online.
    3. Why I am not seeing FULL PF WITHDRAWAL option. Although my KYC has been done by employer already.

    Sir request you to respond asap. I need to apply the claim today itself.

    Thanks in anticipation.

  93. Dear Sir,
    I left company A (Trust based) in 2014.I joined company B and got the EPF transferred of A to B through online mode.Later i left company B also and applied for EPF and EPS withdrawal.The amount got credited in my account in two transactions.1st transaction comprises of total of EPF from company A and B(aound 69251 which is total of EPFs of both company).About 2nd transaction, i am not sure(12384),may comprise of EPS of company B and interest).
    I thought that i have got all my EPF and EPS,but recently i recalculated and found that i should have received around 104000 but received only 81635(including interest may be).This gap of around 26000 ,i have not received.I suspect that it is the EPS from company A which may not have been transferred to company B.

    Pls guide with your expertise if i need to claim this amount of 26000.And how can i claim.

    Company A
    EPF Employee 38,886 Received
    EPF Employer 11,900 Received
    EPS 26,986 Not received may be

    Company B
    EPF employee 14142 Received
    EPF employer 4323 Received
    EPS 7419 Received may be

    Amount received
    69251
    12384

    Thanks

    1. Birendra-In case of EPS, if your service is less than 10 years, then you will get a partial amount based on how old your EPS is (As per Table D). Hence, I don’t think there is any mismatch. Also, do remember one thing that your EPS will never earn a single rupee of return. They just keep that amount with them.

        1. Dear Sir,

          I want to withdraw the PF due to medical reasons at family. I am still working in the same company and no plans of leaving the current job. I have completed 5yrs in same company.

          I am able to login to EPFO website and I can avail Online Services as my Employer has updated/verified the details like Aadhar/Bank details/other KYC documents. Once I click on Claim form under online services, I get Form 31 as drop down and I don’t how to proceed further.
          Please let know how to proceed further and how much maximum amount I can withdraw and do I need to have any supporting documents
          Below are my details:-
          Employee Share: 55838
          Employer Share: 1723
          Pension: 33361
          Basic Pay (Excluding other components) : 8190

  94. Hi Sir,

    I left my previous job in Oct 2016 and had not withdrawn my PF due to some name mismatch in UAN which is corrected now. I am jobless and want to withdraw my full PF. I assume it to be around 55K(Including EPS as well).

    1. Can I withdraw full amount.
    2. How do I file form 15G\H while applying online withdrawal.
    3. If tax do get deducted and I being jobless with no major source income. Can I ask for refund while filing ITR as someone suggested to me.

    Waiting for your response. Its urgent Sir.

    Regards
    Kapil Singh

    1. Also my KYC updation has been done by employer. So can I file offline claim directly to the EPFO with attached form 15G/H if form 15G/H not allowed online.

        1. Sir, Currently I live in delhi, but my PF account belongs to Kandivali(Mumbai). So can I search the address and courier my forms to EPFO. Also, How much time does EPFO takes to process an offline claim.

          Thanks

            1. Sir, One very last thing. I want do go for the full withdrawals. What forms I need to send to EPFO apart from 15G\H. I read it somewhere(might be on your blog) that a single form will do, but I am not sure.

              Thanks
              Kapil

    2. Kapil-1) Yes but EPS will be part of it if your EPF account is not more than 10 years old.
      2) Don’t concentrate too much on TDS. Even if they deduct also, you can file IT return and claim the TDS back if your taxable income is less than the rate of TDS.
      3) YES.

  95. Sir

    1. Suresh-It is recent judgement of Supreme Court which made it for eligibility of higher pension but you have to contribute to get it a higher pension. Whether it is viable or not for you depends on you. Hence, please be in touch with nearest EPFO.

  104. Hi,
    Thanks for such an informative stuff , I have been searching of this sort for a while.

    I left my job in July 2017 after working for 6 years. In august I moved to abroad for higher studies. considering that I need minimum 2 months to apply for PF , I could not do.

    I have my UAN activated with Adhar and PAN linked and verified. I was trying to withdraw my PF directly through UAN portal but it seems it needs one OTP send on my India phone , which does not support OTP in Australia.

    Is there a way , I can withdraw my PF by submitting my forms as mentioned above in your blog by scanning and sending it to India via a relative to EPF office.

    Is there any other work around to get the PF from Australia ?

    Please advise.

  105. Hi Basavaraj,

    I have to withdraw my pf without employer signature, as employer is not cooperating.
    I have a few queries regarding the same:
    My aadhar and PAN are seeded and linked to UAN but NOT verified by the employer.
    The employer is not helping me verify the same.
    Can i withdraw pf by visiting directly epfo office? Or would it not be possible without verifying my aadhar and PAN?
    I read in your blog that aadhar and PAN must be verified but employer is not helping. So i dont know if visiting pf office will also be helpful.
    I have completed 6 years of service and not working currently. Its been 2.5 months to my resignation but i dont have a relieving letter.

    Regards,
    Nive

  106. I have left a company after working for 4.5 years & want to withdraw my entire PF Amount as i am not working anywhere, but it attracts 10% tax deduction. So, how do i avoid this deduction. Please advise.

  107. I need to transfer my EPF and EPS from two of my earlier companies to my new company.
    What are the forms to submit?

  108. Hi Sir,

    I had applied for PF withdrawal through my previous employer. My previous employer suggested that I can withdraw the PF only after 2 months. Hence I submitted all the forms to them and joined another company. They didn’t mention anything about 2 months of unemployment. After 2 months, my previous employer submitted all the necessary documents to EPF office and sent me the acknowledgement receipt. In my new company, I had given the same UAN number and there been a separate member Id created for the new company and for the past 2 months PF amount had been deposited to that account. Now, I came to know that we can only transfer if I joined another company. I would like to know what will happen to my PF withdrawal request. Will there be any fine or my request will be rejected ?

    Thanks & Regards,
    Sundar

    It’s a UAN linked with two diffrent company’s EPF account.Currently I am not working.However when i go to claim online It shows an Error “Sorry can’t process it’s a multiple member’s account”. I am extremely disappointed since last three months trying to get it done hassle free.
    Also I sent a claim composite form with all docs attached to last employer’s EPF regional office by speed post,still have not heard anything from them.
    Kindly assis!!

    1. Sir,
      Following is the exact error it appears on UAN Portal while filing online claim-

      “Multiple member-id’s found linked to your UAN. Kindly transfer all to current member-id before proceeding.”

  121. Hi,

    Appreciate you blogging.

    I am about to complete 10 years of service in a single company and wish to withdraw pf partially to be able to close a home loan with SBI. My city of residence is Pune and my EPFO is in Bangalore (PY/KRP), can I submit the partial withdrawal application in Pune EPFO?
    Do I need any letter from SBI stating the home loan balance principal/interest?
    Online it does not have an option for repaying home loan (just construction).

    Many thanks for your review.

    Thanks & Regards

      1. Highly Appreciate your response Basavaraj 🙂

        As per epfindia web site one can take advance against housing loan, please check Para 68bb in the first link.

        http://www.epfindia.com/site_docs/PDFs/Downloads_PDFs/TypesOfAdvances_Form31.pdf

        http://epfindia.gov.in/site_docs/PDFs/MiscPDFs/FAQ_OCS_050517_1017.pdf

        to re-verify checked a few other websites too

        Withdrawals from EPF A/c for Repayment of Home Loan section in the following link.
        https://www.relakhs.com/epf-partial-withdrawals-epf-loan-rules/

        As per the info available one can avail 36 months basic/PF balance lower value, to repay principal & interest portion of the Housing Loan after completing 10 years of continued PF association. Appreciate if you can enlighten with your expert opinion & advise as I am keen to be debt free using the PF corpus once I complete 10 years of service. Thanks a ton for your values time.

          1. Thank you for the response again. I did have a look at the post you shared, it does explain to a great extent. I hope you don’t mind me continuing to the existing post since the query responses may benefit others too.

            Honestly I am looking to close the home loan entirely in order to be debt free and after completing 10 years of service(within a few months) my PF balance would be equivalent to the pending home loan amount. Using PF to pay EMI would not be that beneficial in my case.

            What interests me is the below asavailable on epf website under which states –

            Para 68BB: Withdrawal from the fund for repayment of loans in special cases

            Purpose of withdrawal – For refund of outstanding principal and interest of a loan for purposes under Para Loan from AGENCY 68BB

            Membership/period required – 10 years
            Amount Admissible / from share – 36 month’s basic wages and DA OR Total of employee 1 (one) Agency Certificate from the Agency indicating outstanding principal and interest.

            This would be ideal for my case. Appreciate if you can advise me on how to process this and/or other options available to me.

            From a salaried class worker burdened by EMI. 🙂

            Thanks.

            1. *adding to the above post under Amount Admissable
              nd employer share with interest OR Total outstanding principal and
              interest.

  122. Hi Basavraj,

    I was working in India till 2011 and then moved to overseas however i did not withdraw/settle my PF, I was under impression that my PF amount is safe and getting some interest :), but recently i tried to search and activate UAN for my account which i could not find online. then when i inquired with local PF office they informed me that my account is inactive and inoperable. i raised further question to them to withdraw or getting UAN but now they are not responding.

    Can you please suggest me if it is possible to withdraw my PF balance without going through my previous employer which will be long process, most importantly i will not be staying in India for that long. what is best way to proceed further.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Thanks
    Santosh

  123. Hi Mr. Basavaraj,

    Firstly, great to see you helping people out here. So my concern is that my previous employer (with my first UAN account, which I want to withdraw from) is not contactable. My Aadhar is not linked to it. I’m trying to get my Aadhar linked to it offline since online I’m facing some issues. Is there a way I can withdraw money from this account without my Aadhar linked and without my previous employer’s signature?

    Any help will be appreciated. Thanks

      1. According to UAN portal we dont require employer approval for Form 31 ( EPF Partial Withdrawal)

        Checked with employer he is not able to view any record for approval.

        Either UAN and EPF database is not in sink or there may be software issues

        Date of joining is also correct.

  141. Hi Friends,

    All my documents ( AAdhar, Pan and bank details are approved by employer), I have applied for form 31 ( Partial withdrawal ) from UAN member portal. https://unifiedportal-mem.epfindia.gov.in/memberinterface/

    the application is successful. But the status is not updated. Have sent compliant to grievance cell, They have sent a response. Employer has to approve form his DSC.
    In Employer login my application does not exists.

    For partial withdrawal we don’t require employer signature.

    Please suggest the proper procedure to apply for partial withdrawal of EPF Form 31.

  142. My previous company by mistaken feed the wrong name in PF account details.
    I am submitting the joint declaration form in EPFO to correct the same.
    I just want to know how can I submit, I need to submit only joint declaration form or need to submit with form 19 & 10c

  143. Hi Basavaraj,

    My wife worked in CTS during 2013-14 and left the job for marriage. After that she joined in new firm where she didn’t add old UAN as she doesn’t aware of that. Now we want to withdraw the PF amount from that PF account.

    We are able to register in UAN and view the passbook information. Now while trying to seed AADHAR, we are facing issue mentioning mismatch data. Any idea how to proceed in this ?

    One more query – The bank account which was provided in the old PF account is now inactive. I added an active savings account to that. Is it possible to claim our PF amount into that newly added bank account.

      1. Thanks Basavaraj for your response. I approached EPFO Grievance Cell Online by registering my grievance. Any idea whether they will contact us for any other clarification/notifcation.

          1. Hi Basavaraj,

            Got below response from them.

            Madam, please upload your Aadhar details to your UAN and get it approve by your employer and then submit composite claim form (aadhar) by enclosing cancelled cheque leaf and non-employment certificate for withdrawal.

            So now we have to take action item as mentioned above ? I heard that if aadhar is seeded in our UAN account we can apply for online claim (without employer assistance). Is that possible ?

  144. Dear sir

    I have small concern my KYC is updated after i left my job its been 1 year but only date of joining and leaving was not updated so can i claim my PF without employer sign.

        KYC is approved only the Dates of joining and leaving is not approved in my portal.

  151. Hi Basavaraj,

    I live in Pune and worked with a firm here for 8 years. Thereafter i moved to a different company in Hyderabad, but quit in 2 months. Presently i am self-employed and would like to withdraw my PF amount. The problem is i have a UAN which is linked to bank and aadhaar, but i am not able to file online claim. This is because i have 2 PF numbers under a single UAN. The message i get is to transfer the pf balance from my first employment to the last one, but that’s not possible now. How do i withdraw my amount? And to which EPFO office (should it be Pune or Hyderabad) i submit my claim if i have to submit a composite form.

  152. Hi Sir,
    I gave my UAN number to new company. Now do i need to transfer the money in old pf account to new one because when i see the passbook, it is showing old pf account & new pf account balance separately under single UAN. Now how to transfer amount in the old pf account to new pf account or no need to transfer?? please give suggestions

  153. Sir,
    I am from Mumbai. I left my job in Jan 2013 due to dispute. Since then I am unemloyed. My phone no. & Pan no. Not linked with pf account. I tried to generate UAN no., but site is not identifying my pf no. Can I withdraw my pf without employer signature.

      1. Sir,
        I visited EPFO yesterday. They are saying that, since UAN is not alloted it is not possible to withdraw pf without employer sign. Try to get sign of employer, if he don’t give the sign then we will see what to do next. But due to dispute I don’t want to visit my employer. Shall I follow other methods that you have mentioned & submit the form. Will it work? Also they have discarded old forms & distributing only new forms. Please suggest.

        1. Gajanan-What we will see next means? There is a process even in OFFLINE to withdraw without employer approval. You go again and inform them that employer not ready to co-operate and hence let you withdraw without the help of an employer. What if the company closed? Will they not allow such employees to withdraw money??

  154. Sir, for claiming online pf the employeer is not updating or approving the bank account number, and not lifting our phone also. sir now what to do please help me sir.

  155. Sir,

    I have worked for a company from 2013 to 2015. I haven’t withdraw the PF money. Since I didn’t claim it so far, will it be withheld by Government or company’s authorities? Will I still be able to withdraw it?

  156. Hi Sir,

    I have submitted attested Form-13(transfer document) to my Ex-Employer (which I have left recently). But when I have raised a complaint to EPFO online, it says that we haven’t received such form and to re-submit it.

    When I told him the same to the Ex-Employer (that I will resend the attested transfer document), he’s denying and not at all co-operating with me.

    Please take your precious time in answering these queries Sir.

    1) Will the Employer have a option that the Form-13 is received by the Employee or not? If they have such option, every time he’s denying and only approving the current PF rather than transferring old PF to current PF account.

    2) Can I withdraw at least current PF without employer’s signature rather than transferring?

    But I’m getting this error while checking the claim form under online services: AADHAAR is not authenticated from UIDAI. Please authenticate your AADHAAR by visiting nearest EPFO office.

    However, I can see that under KYC my aadhar, PAN, bank details show as approved.

    Please suggest me Sir.

    That’s great to hear from your comments where there is a possibility of getting my PF claimed,It’s been more than years i tried many measures to claim my PF. However, I Couldn’t find the way to do so. When recently i check two of my old companies PF accounts they were into inoperative account. I scanned around the google no hope and no traces about the companies.I logged into EPFO and seek help from Help desk that doesn’t help either. From my very recent company i claimed my PF, Hopefully the company created my UAN number,Having that number i merged both the old pf accounts to that UAN still that dint help either. Now desperately need your advice……..

  178. Hello Basavaraj, MY UAN with all respective details is activated. So I will be filling up UAN forms. But do I still need to fill UAN form 31? I don’t need any advances / loan. I want to withdraw the whole balance from PF account as presently an unemployed more than 60 days.

    Regarding form 15 G and 15 H , my service tenure is more than 5Yrs and more that 50K , So I hope I am not required to submit as UAN with KYC is updated and activated. But my doubt is how government will come to know about my >5Yrs service as its mix of both my last worked company with previous company? Would be happy if you can help me.

    1. Krishnan-Advance withdrawal form not required but withdrawal form is need. Yes, Form 15G/15H not required in your case. The overall contribution in a EPF account will enough to get the idea of how old is your EPF account.

      1. Thanks for the reply Basavaraj. I hope by ‘ withdrawal form is needed ‘ , you refer to form 19 UAN and form 10C UAN only.

  181. I have retired at age of 58 years after working for 20 years. Is it possible to only partially withdraw the EPF corpus (say 30%) and withdraw the remaining in installments whenever funds are needed?

  189. Hi Basavaraj,

    I’ve to withdraw Pf from my last 3 organisations,, not working anywhere at the moment.. I’m confused as UAN wasn’t generated for any of the companies.. i generated it myself,, It’s activated too.. It has details of the 1st org where I worked.. KYC is also updated.. The question is “How to fill PF form online?”
    For the other 2 companies no details are updated on the UAN member portal.. getting signature is bit difficult as I was working in Pune & not I’m in Delhi.. The question is “How to withdraw PF from the other 2 org?”

    Also, How much time will it take for the amount to come in both cases?

  190. Hello Sir,

    Recently i updated my Adhar card and bank details in UAN under kyc column. it got verified by my employer, but am not sure, whether KYC have been verified by your employer using digital signatures or not. can i assume that they had verified by using digital signatures by default and start next step for withdrawing process or doi have a way to check it.

    Thanks & Regards,
    rakesh

    I have sent the UAN based form along with other documents including one cancelled cheque leaf to EPF offfice. BUt in the reverse of cheque leaf I forgot to put the signature and name. Now the EPF official is saying that I need to send the Bank Pass book copy through the employer of my previous company to them (EPF Office) to authenticate the cheque leaf.

    I told I will sent another cancelled cheque leaf with its back side signed. But they are simply repeating the above step again and again.

    I am not understanding this procedure. when I asked its purpose to them, Since I have used UAN based forms what is the requirement of employer authentication. ?
    What is your suggestion for this? Is it correct as per law.

    Kindly advise.

  198. Hi, this is regarding withdrawal under 68BB. I have got a certificate from HDFC showing the initial loan taken and the principal outstanding. I had also prepared Form 31, declaration and Form 31 UAN. PF authorities are asking for filling another form (68BB declaration) and get it signed by the bank. I can’t find any such form online. Is it really required, please?

          1. Thanks for the prompt responses. To update on my case, my form 31 claim was processed in 8 calendar days by the PF office without any follow ups later. I am impressed. Now, waiting for the amount to be credited to my loan account hoping that the cheque reaches the bank quickly. I have got the cheque number and issued date but can’t track where the cheque is.

  217. Dear Mr.Basavaraj

    Kindly advise. I have worked in organization “A” for 5 years and then resigned in 1999 to start my own business. Organization A got merged with organization B and subsequently Organization B has been taken over by organization C, leaving to clue whom to contact for my PF withdrawal. During so many years i was just following up with organization “C” for my PF but not getting any co operation. Last year, I personally visited the EPFO – Regional Office at Bandra / Mumbai and have found that my PF account is lying inoperative.

    I have submitted the following application forms-
    1) Claim Form no 19 & 10C duly attested by my Bank Manager -SBI
    2) Cancelled Cheque copy
    3) All relevant documents like – Adhar Card, Pan card, Voter ID, Passport, Copy of EPFO Account statement provided by my erstwhile employer, salary slips, duly attested by my banker
    4) Self declaration certificate -regarding non employment duly attested by my banker -SBI
    I have submitted all these documents on 21st February,2016 personally by visiting Bandra EPFO and everything was done as per guidance given by EPFO office as i stay at Kolkata.

    on 18th march, 2016, all the documents were returned back to my address at Kolkata alongwith a cover letter addressed to my erstwhile employer- organization”A” and copy was marked to me – the letters says, Claim has been rejected and i have to submit non employment certificate.\

    By checking with them over phone i was told that i have to furnish a declaration on a stamp paper which is to be notorized by magistrate but they asked me to collect the format from kolkata RO of EPFO. I am not getting the format from Kolkata nor from Mumbai. Kindly advise.

    You must provided your Bank details with UAN.

  222. dear sir im redy to withdrawal apply pf without employer sing can i possible this process……….?
    and one more my S/o father name wrongly updated can i correction possible………..?

  223. I withdrew my old PF accumulations of 4 employers in different parts of India. Since Dec. 1998 I continued with a single organisation, with all my PF contributions regularly. Does withdrawal of Old PF Contributions, have any impact on my pension calculation. Because as such I understand, in present scenario, the pension is a meager amount for private sector employees.

  224. Dear Sir,

    I have 4.9 years of service and left the job by sep ,2015.I have UAN and my KYC details had been verified .It’s been more than a year I’m unemployed and now i need my pf money for my marriage expense which is on December ..My employer approved KYC, PAN and Bank details.

    1)But When i approached EPFO office they asked my marriage invitation card .Is that necessary to submit marriage card???

    2)Is it possible that can i get the amount by this month????

    3)Instead of cancelled check can i provide my bank e-statement copy which contains all my account details including IFSC.

    1. Priya-Instead of advancing from EPF, why can’t you withdraw the EPF fully? 1) If your intention is to take advance, yes the documents are necessary. 2) Getting within a month or not is purely procedural issue. I can’t claim that. 3) YES.

      1. Thanks for your reply.

        Sir …actually iam talking about withdrawal process only…But even for withdrawal they were asking marriage card as my marriage is on december the cards will be reafy omly by November….

        Before that iam in need of my PF.

  225. Dear Sir,

    I need your help. Can you tell me how can i get my pf money with in week. Actuly my employer didnt sent my pf form to PF office. Now they are saying you hav to sumbit your form. It has been 5 months. I need your guidence

  226. Dear Sir,

    My salary is 14k working in private organization. They have been stopped epf & esi deduction in aug 2015. When i talked to concerned dept they told me to our internal policy to cut the epf and esi 13500. What should i do now, can i take any action against them..
    Please help.

  227. Dear Sir,

    I have worked 2.5 yrs in a IT Company located in Bangalore and left in 2013. Now as per your instructions I have submitted Form 19C UAN Based, Cancelled Cheque, PAN Card Copy, Adhar Copy and Bank Account Statement and cover letter. And my UAN is also activated and PAN, Aadhar & Bank Account etc all KYC are verified by the employer.
    I have also recieved the Claim id on my mobile saying its under process But after some days when I checked the EPF Withdrawal status online it says… Claim ID : BGBNG160900014187
    Status : Claim Form 19 for PF Settlement AGAINST Member Account No (BGBNG00416530000000969) has been rejected.
    Reason of rejection: CERTIFICATE ENCLOSED IS IMPROPER

    Sir, Could you please let me know for what reason they have rejected or what sort of certificate is improper.

    I would like to again reiterate that I have submit only UAN Based form 19 with other required xerox copies.

      1. Sir, First of all thanks for the reply. I have gone through your almost all posts so I thought to re-claim PF amount again.
        For this, If possible please clarify my some more doubts.

        1) As I am working right now in a Govt Sector wherein there is no EPF Account for Employees instead of that we have NPS Account for PF and all.
        So Do I have to declare about non-employment under any organization having another EPF Account.
        If yes, then how..Is there any specific format/form for this declaration. ??

        2) Do I need to Submit UAN Based 10C and UAN 19 Forms both for PF Claim?
        3) Do I need to submit 15G even my income in earlier organisation was less than 2.5lacs per annum.??

        It would be more helpful if you clear my above doubts. Thanks in advance.
        Because my claim has been rejected 2 times and I am unable to find out the exact reason. EPF Banglore officials are not picking calls, not confirming the exact reason for rejection of claim.
        As earlier I said Just simply they mentioned Reason of rejection: CERTIFICATE ENCLOSED IS IMPROPER

        1. Shashikant-1) You mean to say for withdrawing the existing EPF?
          2) Yes, if you have UAN.
          3) Yes and if your EPF is less than 5 years old.
          If they regional EPFO not responding, then you can raise the issue with EPFO Grievance Cell Online.

          1. Sir, Thanks for clarifying my Doubts.
            And for Point No. 1, yes i want to withdraw my existing EPF amount when i was working in Private IT Company and left Job in 2013. Period of Service 2.5 yrs.

            1. Re….In addition to Earlier post..

              I am going to claim again my EPF with the following documents. Please advise me if anything else need to attach. Thanks.

              1) UAN Form 10C
              2) UAN Form 19
              3) 15 G form
              4) Letter of Declaration about non-employment under any organization
              having another EPF Account.
              5) PAN Card Copy
              6) Aadhar Card Copy
              7) Bank account statement
              8) Cancelled Cheque.
              9) Cover letter

                1. Sir, With reference to my earlier posts I have applied 3rd time PF Withdrawal with all the documents, now see the EPF Bangalore Office again rejected the Claim by giving the below Remarks:
                  PF CLAIM ID: BGBNG160900014187 has been rejected by giving the remarks :
                  SINCE THIS IS A PF EXEMPTED ESTABLISHMENT SUBMIT THE CLAIM F-19 TO THE EMPLOYER FOR NEEDFUL ACTION.

                  So, Now I have raised my complaint to EPF Grievance online and got the Registration Number and also I mentioned clearly in the Complaint that If employer would have been agreed to settle the claim then why would I wait for 3 years and why should I approach with UAN Documents directly to EPFO Regional Office etc.

                  And, Also I am thinking to file an RTI regarding same matter. Please advise me whether I should take this step or suggest any other way (if any) because now its clearly understood they are purposely not giving EPF amount.

                    1. Sir,
                      As per our earlier discussions, I have raised the issue with Grievance Cell and now I got the below reply.
                      Dear Sir/Madam,
                      This is with reference to your Grievance registered vide Registration Number ROBGL/E/2016/07796.
                      It is informed that your grievance is being treated as non-actionable due to the following reason(s):
                      As KN/41653 is exempted establishment only EPS will be maintained by the PF office. Regarding PF you are requested to contact your Trust.( PF money cannot be paid in r/o PF exempted establishments as it is not maintained by the PF office.)

                      Even though i had clearly mentioned in the Grievance that Employer denied to settle the claim and thats why I am approaching to you directly. etc.

                      Now It is clear to me that neither Employer taking any step to settle the claim nor EPF People.

                      In this situation please advise me the next best step should be taken in this matter.

                      Thanks

              1. Hi Shahikant,

                what is the letter of declaration and in the name of whom we have to submit???Can you please explain..

                1. Hi Priya,
                  There is one format for declaration about non-employment under any organization having another EPF Account which we can submit if we are not maintaining any other EPF account. If you have another EPF Account then EPF people will not approve your claim instead of withdrawal you need to apply for transfer of old PF Amount

  229. Dear Mr. Basavaraj

    There is one query… Please help…

    I had worked in an organisation for more than NINE (9) Years & left the jobs 3 months back and presently not doing any job as well since then..
    Now I want to withdraw my PF amount. I already have an registered UAN account and my bank detail & Aadhaar details has been verified by my employer. PAN details are also verified

    Now please confirm is there any rule that my PF form will first go to the company for the attestation before the release of my PF amount in my bank account OR company attestation is not mandatory/ required if I have UAN details verified by company itself, i.e. I can directly apply for PF withdrawal.

    My company will not be supporting me in this regard as they have not given me my experience letter & Gratuity money… …

    Kindly suggest as soon as possible, tomorrow I will be going to PF office.

    Best regards
    Sunny

      1. Thanks for the prompt reply Mr.Basavaraj.

        So what I understand is that the employer’s role is finished if my UAN details are approved by the company at earlier stage.
        Therefore, I just have to visit PF office? Correct…!

        Regards

          1. Thank you very much for creating such useful websites/links & discussion forums.
            This helps people like me a lot.

            Thanks again.. GOD BLESS U..

  230. I want to know that i have pf account in Kolkata region could i submit these form in Delhi PF office or it will be send in Kolkata office.

  231. Hi Sir,
    I have resigned from my company and I have the UAN number with me. My bank account details has been updated and approved by the employer. But instead of aadhar number, my PAN card details has been uploaded and approved by the employer. So, can I approach the EPF authority to withdraw my amount?
    If yes, which and all forms I have to submit?
    If not, what can be done to withdraw my amount?

      1. I found an option for uploading aadhar details by myself. But again, do I need to get it approved from the employer? Since I have resigned from the organization and the HR dept is not responding properly, I am feeling difficulty in getting the approvals or signature from the company. And even they haven’t paid last 3 months contribution (Both employee share and employer share which has been deducted from my salary) to the EPF authority.
        Pleas help me on this by giving proper suggestion

          1. Sir, I tried contacting the HR dept again for getting the things updated. Then I came to know that the company has closed permanently due to management fund issues and internal clashes. So, what can I do next? If I contact EPFO helpdesk, will they be able to help me?

    Please reply

        1. Jatinder-Form 31 is for EPF Advance. In your case you are withdrawing. Hence, it is not required. One more information, I am not here to act as per your means. Take pain to read and understand. I am neither your servant nor you. I am just helping. If not understood of what I said, then you can reach to EPFO Office. It is at the end your money not MINE. Therefore, you must take the pain to read and understand but not ME.

  239. Hello Basu,

    I worked for company X for 7 years, then quit and worked for company Y for 8 months. I have not been working anywhere since last year. I have TWO DIFFERENT EPF ACCOUNTS for both companies. Y created new account for me when I joined and I didn’t apply for EPF transfer (X to Y or vice-versa)before leaving the job.

    UAN active, KYC created and approved on UAN portal for Company X.

    My questions below, please:

    1] Can I withdraw my EPF from company X by above process on my own? If so, what is the prerequisite of Form 11 (new) availability and approval on UAN portal referred to on the 19 (UAN) application which needs employer’s signature?

    2] Can I withdraw my EPF amount from company Y also having different EPF number? If so, how?

    Please advise. Thanks!

  262. Hi Basavaraj,

    Your blog is very useful. Please keep posting more.
    I have a query about PF advance for FLAT purchase.
    I understood that I have to apply for the same through my employer before the registration of the flat. What happens if the amount crediting into my bank account happens after I have completely paid the full amount to the seller/builder ? As the builder may not wait and the PF advance might get delayed, I might be forced to take a loan from relatives/friends etc. and pay off my builder. In this scenario, can I use the PF advance which may get credited after I pay off the builder to repay the loan taken from friends/relatives ? or use it for House interiors ?

    After receiving the advance, are we supposed to show any proof that I have used the money to pay off my builder only ?
    Can you throw some light on this, please ?

  263. I was abscond from my last organisation and my UAN is linked by Aadhar Number, and my KYC, like aadhar card , Pan card and bank detail approved by employer so May I apply for EPFO withdrawal with out employer signature

    I have a concern. My UAN is activated and my Aadhaar card, bank data and PAN is up on the portal. But there is a confusion in my name. My name is Madhu Rangappa on the portal while in all my KYC documents and bank it is Madhu R.

    To add to this, my employer is not cooperating, it has been 4 months since I sent them a letter for name change but they have not acted on this. Due to this, I cannot process my PF withdrawal forms too.

    Is there another way or a workaround to this solution? Will a sign from a gazetted officer or my bank manager stating that Madhu Rangappa and Madhu R are the same person help?

    Please advise.

        Prakash-Yes, you can withdraw and it is taxed. If your income is more than Rs.2.5 lakh a year, then you are not eligible to submit Form 15G/H

  288. Hello Sir,

    I am trying to withdraw partial PF using UAN based Form 31 for purchase of flat. Do we need to submit declaration form?

    Declaration form still asks for employer;s signature. So does that mean, the process still is not employer agnostic?

  308. Dear Sir

    I worked with a private company for 2.5 years and then joined a government organization. Since, my current employer has only option of NPS thus I couldn’t transfer my EPF corpus. My previous employer deducted TDS @ 10% and credited epf to my account. Is my EPF (2.5 years) taxable (I was under 30% tax-bracket for last 2.5) years?

  309. Sir, First time i have seen an expert addressing each and every comment patiently for a long time.

    Sir, i want to know one thing, I have activated UAN with my current employer and KYC is uploaded by me but not verified by my employer (intentionally rejected by Employer twice) i wanted to know the consequences, where KYC is not verified by the employer. (will UAN not be fully automated without KYC verification?)
    because some HR people (including our’s) ask for undue support at the time of PF withdrawal.
    Is this a reason? he is not verifying KYC because he will not be able to do this thing in future? or is there any other interest of employer in not verifying the KYC?

    Secondly is there any penal provision if employer does not verify the KYC in any time limit?

      1. Sir, i have written privately as general query about this issue buy they replied “be specific and give the complete details” to take a action.

        but it spoils employee-employer relationship, i will do in future when things will go so serious.

        but also this is a general problem for most of our friends, EPFO should make some line action to make system more automated.

  310. Hi sir,

    I have put down on the spot resignation so when I approach my employer for pf they ask me pay settlement amount I don’t knw what they are talking about I just want to withdraw my Pf ..so what can I do sir ? I manage to get my UAN but they update my aadhar ,pan and bank account details so I have manually updated the scan copy in my UAN account awaiting for there approval..so what should I do please guide me ?? my EFPO office is at delhi and I worked in Mumbai.

  311. HI SIR,

    Really this is very good information for those who are not getting signature from employer even i am also one of them when I was searching for the solution i saw your informations. Thank you very much for this will try the same if i got my PF amount really it is big thing for me and m very thankful for giving such a information.

    thanks

  312. Hi Sir,

    I Left my job in March 31,2016 after 2.5 years of service. My Total Pf contribution till date was 45,456 including employer’s part. I have’nt working anywhere after that. Do I illegible for withdrawal of my pf balance using UAN withdrawal process, if yes then do i also need to submit form 15g/15h and if yes then what amount should i mention in “estimated income for which declaration is made ‘. Is it the same amount as mention in PF balance.
    Also please tell me whether i elligible to withdraw EPS amount.

    Kindly respond it early.

    Thanks
    Prakash Chandra

      1. So i don’t need to submit form 15g/h ,mean I have to pay tax anyway. But my previous year in my case is 2016-17 where I don’t have any income yet but in coming month I might get the job. but right now during my form submission I don’t have any income other than my pf. So do is till need not to submit form 15G/H.

        And one more question do I eligible to withdraw EPS money also.
        Please reply soon.

        1. Prakash-If your income in this financial year is more than Rs.2.5 lakh, then you are not eligible to submit it. Also, do remember that avoiding TDS does not meant that avoiding tax. At any cost it is taxable income for you.

  313. Dear Sir,

    Can you help me how to calculate the total PF amount (approximately) I would be getting. I served for 2 and half years and total amount accumulation at the end of this tenure is 93500 and 64500 INR each respectively without interests added.

  320. Hello Sir,

    My name is Sunil and i worked in an IT organization from 2010 to 2014 for 4 years and joined another IT organization. Now my first IT organization PF account is from Chennai and at the time of leaving the organization i didn’t apply for withdrawal. But after 6 months i applied for withdrawal and its been 1 year and the employer is not co operative. As per the above process can i apply for PF withdrawal ??

    Now i reside in Hyderabad so can i submit the forms Form 19, Form 10C and Form 31 along with a cancelled cheque to the regional PF office here itself or do i need to go to Chennai PF office ??

    Also only my Aadhaar number is not linked to the UAN and my PAN and bank account details are linked. So please advice me to get my PF as early as possible.

  321. Hi Sir,

    I have two questions.

    1) I asked you few days back about the procedure for PF withdrawal using the new form 19(UAN). So i went to the office to submit it, but they are asking to attach form 10 (C) with it.I asked for the same from the office but they have the old 10 (C) forms & the new 10 (C) which i can see on this page stands for Pension Scheme i guess.So kindly confirm which new 10(C) form i have to submit along with fom 19 (UAN) ?

    2) Also they said my Aadhar number is not linked into my UAN,can i attest it from any Gazetted Officer, and attach it by my own or else its required to be updated by the previous employer ? My PAN , Account Number is already updated by my previous Employer except Aadhar.Can i do it by myself ?

    Thanks.

      1. Hi Sir,

        I recently uploaded the attested copy of Aadhar in my KYC details in UAN portal.My PAN and account no was already approved by my previous employer.However,I got my Aadhar attested by the MLA of our region,but the status is still showing as pending.

        I contacted the Gurgaon office earlier with the new PF form 19 and they said only Aadhar is not present in your details.

        So can I fill the form again and submit it to the pf office this time as I have uploaded the attested Aadhar copy knowing that the status is showing pending ?

        I also cannot contact my previous employer and presently,don’t have any pf scheme at my present office.

        Thanks.

    So if I try withdrawal this month end when I leave my present company using UAN, will it be rejected by EPFO, because from next month on wards PF deposit will happen from new company ?
    I guess I will have to give same UAN number to the new company as well ?
    According to the PF withdrawal rule, PF can be withdrawn once I leave job and doesn’t get into a new job in 2 months ?

    If withdrawal using UAN is not possible, I thought of using the traditional methods using old form19 and form10-C, this has a waiting period of 2 months anyway, then only my present company will forward the forms to EPFO.
    But again, if I link my UAN in the new company, even this method will work ?

    If both of the above methods doesn’t work, I thought of saying in the new company, I dont have UAN 🙂
    Now they create a new UAN, but my old UAN is already linked with my Aadhar, then again I will be in soup 🙂

    Afterall, is this one of the purposes of UAN.. to stop employees from withdrawing PF when switching jobs ?!

    1. Nitin-Are you able to create two PAN? If not then why you are in a mood to create two UAN? Currently, it may not create a problem for you. But in future it may. Also, if you have UAN, then you can’t withdraw EPF using traditional way.

But till date I didn’t received my PF amount and now the Organisation has closed it’s office and there is no body to contact.

    I have worked in an organisation from 16 July 2012 to 16 fed 2015. My UAN,KYC,Aadhar,Mobile Number is correct on epfo portal.

    After my current job I have started my business.

    I want to withdraw the PF and close the account.

    Which forms I need to submit ?

    Form No 19 UAN and 10 C UAN ? Also I need to submit 15 G as I have not completed employment for 5 years ?

    Which track I should go ? New with UAN or with previous structure ?

  370. Am ex-employee of an IT company , now closed
    Had worked with them for 2 years , have PF around 90,000 Inr.

    How to withdraw my PF

  371. I see lot of members have said they had to get attestation done on Form 31 for home loan closure / flat purchase but i wasnt sure if its required or not.
    It actually defeats the purpose of submitting the forms directly to PF office if i have to get my forms signed from my employer.

    Can someone please confirm? I wish to withdraw my pf for flat purchase. so basically i understood that i need to submit form 31 with my signtature in it? also do i need to submit supporting documentation such as sale deed / agreement , receipt from builder etc

  372. Not 100% when we try to use form 31, this form doesn’t require employer signature, but we need to provide additional “New Declaration Form” that works only if we get signature from Employer.

  379. Hi Basavaraj ,

    This year I see Rs 50000 as part of 80CCD1B-Additional NPS Employee Contribution. So I can claim my std deduction as Rs 200000 instead 150000 if I invest Rs 50000 as part of 80CCD1B-Additional NPS Employee Contribution.

    Is this good option to save tax ?. One drawback I see pension fund cannot be withdrawn till 60 years and also I heard like total amount we will never get instead NPS will give some amount on every month as pension (I am not sure about this)

    Please let me know if you have any suggestions\advices here

    Thanks,

  380. Also what is the time limit for me to submit those documents to pf office after I get employer/officer signature.

  381. After submitting my pf withdrawal forms to employer and when asked for an update after 4 months they told me that pf office will ask certain info and so I have to submit on my own. I asked them what info required and they replied they dont know and they are going to send my documents to my address so that I can try from my end.

    In this case I am not sure whether they are sending with or without employer sign.

    Kindly let me know Can I send the forms via post to regional office or should appear in person given that I have got signatures ?

  384. Hi Basavaraj,

    Please let me know your inputs/suggestions/thoughts for the below queries

    #1 Would like to know why we need FORM 11. In google I see statement PF – Form 11 & UAN to be compulsory from 1/10/2015″. Also I see in my payroll system with column Form11 (New) Declaration with my current employer

    Is Form11 (New) Declaration is mandatory every financial year ?

    What is the use of Form11?. In the Form 11, I see some fields with Previous Employer tagged. I have already transferred my PF from Previous Employer to Current Employer. Is this needed ?

    #2. From your blog “How to claim for EDLI or Employee Deposit Linked Insurance?

    •You have to fill the forms like Form 20 (for EDLI), Form 10D/10C (for claiming the Provident Fund dues and Pension/Withdrawal Benefit as applicable

    I need to updated or filled forms to only current employers right? No need of any action from Previous employer right ?

    Please let me know

    Thanks
    Padmavati

    1. Padmavati-1) Form 11 is meant for your declaration to your employer while you take the new employment. You are declaring yourself of whether you want to be part of EPF or not. In this you state that your salary is more than Rs.15,000 (Basic+DA). Hence, you want to opt out of EPF. It is purely your wish to opt out. Employer can’t force you to fill it.
      2) No, you have to fill it to only CURRENT EMPLOYER.

  385. Hi,

  394. Hello Sir, I was working with an Airlines from 2012 to 2012 and the PF account they gave me was of Delhi Office there was no UAN facility at that time. Later I shifted back to Ahmedabad and started working with a MNC who created my New EPF account which was in Ahmedabad PF office and they provided me with my UAN number.

    I activated my UAN on EPFO site, and I have linked my Previous Company’s PF account under the same UAN. I left the MNC in Ahmedabad in Dec-2016. Due to no Notice Period the employer is asking to pay the penalty as per Notice Period and then they will sign the PF form. Can i withdraw PF of both the companies which are under my UAN from Ahmedabad PF office. I no longer work, and I am assisting my father in his Business.

    Since the PF accounts of Ahmedabad and Delhi Office are linked under one UAN, will Ahmedabad EPFO accept my forms directly for both the PC accounts.

      1. Thank you Sir… just one more thing… If the account number and IFSC code seeded in UAN is different than cancelled cheque i am submitting, then will the EPFO accept to transfer the amount in new Account Number (the cancelled cheque will contain my name being printed on it.)

  413. Hi,

  414. I am working with an organization from last 8 years. I have applied for a loan for purchasing a house after 5 years. Know also I am continuing job with the same employer only. Here my question is Am I eligible for pension after 2 years (Completes 10 years). My PF deduction is 1800 how much can I expect as per present conditions?

  415. I had left previous employer (without relieving) in 2009 and joined new company abroad . I am NRI since then.
    I don’t have UAN no. but planned to withdraw PF & pension amount . I had filled form (19 & 10c)for PF & PENSION withdrwal and sent to Company last dec’15 but still no response.
    My company has its own PF trust.
    It seems Company is reluctant to process my forms.
    My queries are
    1) Even though it is Company owned PF trust, Whether I can sent without company by sending forms again to PF commissioner and whether can approached to any pf commissioner in India.
    2) If yes, how I can do this procedure from abroad.whether embassy signature is required on form.
    3) It seems company has deducted tax ( can be seen online TDS)although total my service(14 years). First employer = 10 yr & Second (last)employer = 4 yrs. I transferred pF from first to second employer. Is tax deduction correct and if not how to get it back.

    Claim Form Submitted – 8 Jan,
    Present Employer approval – 20 Jan,
    Previous Employer approval – 30 Jan.

    Thank you.

  427. Hello Basavaraj,

    Im presenting working in YYY company. I got the UAN of previous XXX company with member ID(ie., PFno). I have many questions?
    1. How to add present company member ID(ie.., newPF no) to existing UAN?
    2. Do i need to update my KYC with aadhar card & bank account details before applying for transfer online(who will approve the document because status shows as pending itself)?
    3.at last let me tell u what & all i have with me?
    i have UAN & previous member id is there, new member id is not there, aadhar card, pan card & bank details are in pending state.
    tel me What & all i need to do for applying online transfer & if not tell me what & all i need to do for offline transfer mode.

    1. Kumkumraj-1) You just provide your UAN to new employer.
      2) UAN was created only after KYC process. Hence, one more documentation is not required.
      3) If in UAN the details show in PENDING status, then ask your employer to complete the KYC process. Once you have UAN, then no need to apply for transfer.

  437. Hello Mr Basavaraj,

    In year 2008, I had signed 2 years job contract with a company and had to leave it 2 months before the contract end date, as I had to go for higher studies. The relieving process by HR was not carried out. I just sent a mail of relieving to my immediate boss and he confirmed me the same. At that time I couldn’t withdraw the PF amount as the signature of employer needed and I knew they wont provide me. Now with this new rule can I withdraw the PF amount without any HELP from employer.

    Thanks,
    Rakesh

      1. as you mentioned one point ”You KYC have been verified by your employer using digital signatures” then it means KYC need to be verified by my employer but I am not in India.

          1. Dear Sir,

            as my account was inoperative and is being active from yesterday. Their reply is below in the end of this paragarph. When I checked form 13, then it is to be filled by current employer. I think it is for PF account transfer from previous employer to current one. What would you suggest now?

            ”HELPDESK
            your claim has UCD and your A/C Is active and balance amount of RS- EE Share-17231 and ER-Share- 5329. you are requested to advice for submit Form-13”

              1. but Sir I am not in India. I am working abroad so no option of current Indian employer. Shall I make application directly to EPFO using Form.19?

  438. Sir,

    In My UAN our name displayed R YAGABALAN instead of R.YOGABALAN is ther compulsory change it for PF claim.What is the procedure to rectify this issue?

  439. Hi,
    Is the declaration form still required along with the new form 31 UAN???
    Because the declaration form does required attestation from the employer.
    Everyone is saying that “Now, employer signature is not required”!!!
    But if declaration form is required than this is not true at all and its a misleading info.
    Please clarify

  440. Please provide the information regarding that my PF No. MP/13284/00007147 when i am entering in blocks it is not displaying in pf details column, it is happening when i am registering in UAN generation no.

  455. Am vivek nagarajan i was worked in J.K.Cement Rajasthan from Nov 2006 to 2007 and i have joined to J.K cement Karnataka from 2007 to Oct 2010 , from 2010 Oct to Feb 2013 i was in Zuari cement -Andra pradesh

    Now My both Rajasthan and Karnataka showing inactive

    I have left out Zuari – Andrapradesh – i have just moved ou ( i dont have resignation letter )

    Now am working in abroad

    Please suggest me how to withdraw my P.F

    1. Vivek-You have to follow the regular process of withdrawal. However, if you feel that your employer will not co-operate, then you can withdraw all EPF amount without employer’s approval. That procedure is also explained above.

  456. Hi Basu,
    Thank you for this post. Yet again you came up with some thing every one wanted to know about. 🙂
    I had resigned from my old company last year and i am currently working with a firm abroad. I had close to 7 years experience when i left. I had already linked my UAN and Bank account and those were approved by employer. I can see the status “Approved by Employer” for UAN and bank account in EPFO web site. I can see an option to upload Aadhar card in KYC section of UAN portal but
    (1)How can i get it approved by employer as i am not working in that company anymore and i am working abroad currently.
    (2)Is there any other way to link aadhar card to UAN so that i can go forward with out employer signature.

    1. Vinod-1) In my view it is not possible and even if possible also, your past employer will not take this initiative. 2) There is no other way than approval through employer. hence, I suggest you to apply for withdrawal through regular method.

  457. I have resigned from Company A( Software) to join Company B(C.Govt) after working there for 6 years.
    For some reasons, now I would like to withdraw PF amount. I have my UAN activated. Am I eligible to follow this new method( ie without going to employer). Thanks in advance.

  458. Hello Basvaraj! You are doing a great Job with your blog. Thanks a lot for effort.

    I have a query.

    My sister worked with Company A for 4.5 years. And then she moved to Company B and worked their for close to 2 years. And later moved to US post marriage.

    She neither transferred nor withdrew money from Company A and B.

    She doesn’t have her Aadhar card created. But she has all other Govt IDs like passport, pan card etc. What do you recommend is best procedure to get her PF withdrawn?

    She is in India for 2 weeks and while she is travelling, we can look into possibility of getting her Aadhar card made.

    Thanks and lot in advance.

      1. Ok..

        But considering both her jobs lasted less than 5 years while in total they lasted more than 5 years, will she have to submit form 15g/15h? Or is there still a way she can connect both pf accounts?

        1. Ekagarh-Yes, if her current yearly income is less than Rs.2,50,000, then she can submit Form 15G/15H. Also, each EPF account is considered as separate for claim and processing purpose. Hence, don’t try to combine the period of both. Now she is not working means, she can’t combine both the accounts. She has to apply for withdrawal separately.

  459. Dear Sir,

    If EPFO pensioner died ,can his spouse get the half pension ? if yes what the procedure for getting the pension by spouse.

    1. Anjali-If you are no longer in job, then you can withdraw it. However, if your employer not approving it, then raise the complaint with EPFO Grievance Cell. Otherwise, you can go for PPF withdrawal without employer directly. There are two methods, one for UAN holders and another for non UAN holders. Both the options are explained in above post. Please read it fully.

      1. Hello Sir, My employer has done partial pf payment as there were accounts due to change in companys name.But for the second withdrawal he is not co-operating with the approval of bank details rest KYC is done. what should be done in this case kindly guide.

          1. Dear sir my kyc details approved my employer and all form submit epf office Bangalore so how mucg days received in my pf amount
