All about EPF (Employee Provident Fund) advance withdrawal

Among all salaried only few members know that they can take advance from their EPF contribution that too for specific reasons. Hence it is better to know the rules and conditions which can apply to take that advance.

Latest News-EPF Universal Account Number (UAN)-What it is?

This advance facility is specifically designed in such a way that employee’s major needs like  buying property, renovation of property, health issues or marriage and education of kids are easily met with advancing from their EPF. One may not get the full expenses by advancing from EPF but it certainly helps employees in case of emergency. Below table will illustrate you full details about when you can take advance and what are the conditions attached to it.

EPFO Advance

For all above advances you need to use Form No.31 which either your employer will provide or you can easily get it from EPFO site. Hope this information will be beneficial to all salaried.

  1. Hello sir – GM. I am planning to book an underconstruction flat which will be given for possession in 2026 and would like to use my PF amount for the down payment of my 20% share and remaining I will go for bank loan. When I applied for Partial withdrawal my claim rejected saying it cannot be used for this type of purchase. Will EPF not allow withdrawals for under construction property and also will the amount be transferred to my account or builder account

    1. Dear Kedar,
      It is hard for me to validate the reasons behind this. Better to raise an issue with EPFO Grievance Cell Online.

  16. Hi Basu
    My company is looking for ‘latest khata certificate’ for PF withdrawal for house purchase. But when i got the e-khata from the panchayat office, the system is generating khata with an older date (2014) and the company is not ready to accept that!
    All other documents like latest tax paid and latest EC has the same current owner name as that in Khata.

    Is it mandatory to get the khata with latest date in it? The BBMP guys are saying it is computer generated and it cannot be altered.

    What should i do in this case?
    Any help on this will be really appreciated

    Thank you

    Hope you’re well.

    I haven’t completed 5 years of service yet but have had to resign from my last job and have been out of work for over 3 months. I have my UAN and approved status for PAN, Aadhar and Bank A/c by the employer.

    Looking forward to hearing from you and appreciate your time.

    Thanks

  34. Hello Basavaraj,

    First of all I would like to thank you from the bottom of my heart for explaining all about PF in a simple and easy to understand language.

    I have a question regarding “Advance for Marriage or post matriculation education of children”. Under that section, please see the column “documents required with Form 31”. I think the column is incomplete in the above given table.

    My main Question: I want to withdraw money for my brother’s marriage. Can you please tell me what else I have to submit along with Form 31? Is there any other certificate or letter that I have to submit ?

    Please help by responding. Eagerly waiting for your reply on your website.

      1. Sir,

        I have one last question.

        I have UAN. And, I have uploaded my KYC (aadhar & pan card) for my employer’s approval. He said that he has approved it online (digital signature) but I still find the status of the documents as “Pending”.

        I dont know whats wrong.
        Is there any other way I can get it approved ?
        Can I approach my regional PF Office and ask them to approve it ?

        Thanks in advance.

  35. Hi Basavraj,

    I had been working with three organisations in the last 4.5 years as below.
    1. Jun 2012 to Sep-2015 (Org 1) (PF Account1 – 3 years 3 months)
    2. Oct 2015 to Dec 2016 (Org 1 but name changed) (PF Account2 – 3 months)
    3. Jan 2016 to June-2016 (Org 2) (PF Account3 – 6 months )
    4. June 2016 till date (Org 3) (No PF Account)

    Please note that I was not able to transfer my PF balance to the latest active PF Account3. Also, I don’t have PF in my latest organisation, since it has only 7 employees. Hence all the three accounts are inactive.

    I am puzzled as should I withdraw the amount since I have contributed for only 4 years. Hence withdrawal may incurr a lot of taxes. Also, can I contribute voluntarily to PF? How can i save tax on PF withdrawal?

      1. Thanks Basavraj.

        But my new organisation does not have EPF account as it has only 7 employees. Also, they are not planning to have one for some more years. So in this case how can I contribute voluntarily?

        This is because I want to complete the 5years lockin period for EPF withdrawal without taxes.

  36. Hi Basavaraj,

    I have completed 10 years of service in 2 organizations (earlier PF transferred to my existing account). Now I am moving abroad to settle there. I understand that I can withdraw Employee and Employer share but am I eligible to withdraw the Pension fund amount or will I get a scheme certificate as I have completed 10 years of service? Thanks.

        My question is not relevant to the above mentioned topic but I require an answer on exigent basis. I have got a job offer from a company. And as per the salary offered. The contribution towards gratuity if 4.16%. I am confused because I think it is 4.83%.

        Also in the calculation of Gratuity the formula:
        Basic+DA x 15/26 * No. of years is counted.
        So the Basic+ DA is the Monthly one or Annual?

          1. I have found that 4.83% on few hr sites,

            In the formula, the last month’s drawn salary or just the basic+da?Because drawn salary has other allowances as components too..

            Sir, can I have your email id? Or how to connect with you otherwise?

              1. Hi,

  66. Hi Sir, Can I able to withdraw the whole amount or there is any restriction to withdraw only certain percentage? as per tne rules until now. Please reply soon.

  67. Hello Sir,

    I am an IT professional. My previous job was with an IT MNC and the job duration was 5 years 2 months & 27 days. I recently resigned and have opted for withdrawal of my PF amount. However, I have got a query from my company, asking for my approval to allow deduction of TDS from my PF amount. Would TDS be deductible even if I have completed 5 years of service & have a PAN number which is there in my PF account details too? I have also submitted a copy of my PAN card to my company too & also filled up the Form 15G. Please advise.

  68. My ex organization is closed. Before 1 year I resigned this org. and now i need to submit my PF forms ( 10C & 19). please check my below details and confirm how i get my PF from PF office directly.

    PF Account Number : DS/SHD/0938519/000/066

    my mobile No. : 098335 25799

    1. Arvand-You have to check it but not me. Also, it is dangerous to share your personal information on such public platform. Hence, I am deleting your PF Account number as well as phone number.

  70. It’s really very good message for all and I am also a Financial consultant to pass this message to my friends and all. Thank U!

  71. Hi, I need a little help understanding the withdrawal process. My company shut down my process on Dec 8 2014. And 40 of them were asked to resign on or before this date. I resigned by 17 Nov 2014 to get benefits like gratuity as I have worked here for last 5 and half years. Now I want to withdraw my epf and I checked my epf and see three different funds employee contribution.. employer contribution and employee pension. If I apply today will I get my epf in two weeks and will I get all three contributions. Guide me please.

      1. last time you told that on job it s not possible to withdraw my PF but i apply-ed and also i received my amount back 95652 RS.

        *i let my old company on 15/September 2015 and i got on 16 September 2015 in deterrent company

        if i not withdraw this amount what will be the benefit s please explain .

        1. Raghunandana-It may be due to the system not in place to check whether the employee applied for withdrawal is working or not. So you may got this amount. Legally speaking, it is not possible. You already withdrawn, then why you are thinking now of the benefits regarding the possibility of future benefits if continued.

  72. Hi

    What if a person has completed more than 10 yrs. of total service; is , say, 40 yrs. of age. and plans to work no more.
    Can s/he withdraw complete EPF then? Will it be tax free? In such case, what will happen to pension?
    Thanks.

  73. I have been working in a company for 12 years and recently changed the company. The new company provided a new PF Account number, so am I eligible to take loan?

    Also my contribution to PF is 9000 per month, and my employers contribution is 9000 (so all of 9000 goes to Provident fund ? or only 3.% goes to provident fund?) I believe there is a max cut off 541 per month for pension fund?

  74. Dear Sir,

    I am having personal loan of rs.200000.00 which i have taken for repayment of Loans taken for Marriage. and i have recently started my EPFO Cutting from my salary (From 01.04.2014). So can i take a loan to repay the amount of Loan taken from a Financial Institute and can i get so much of amount for the repayment.

    Kindly suggest.

    Regards

    hi godd morning,

    i got a massage via epfo site
    Claim ID : TNMAS140750001245
    Status : Claim Form 13 for Transfer to New Account Number: AGAINST Old Member Account No (TNMAS00357910000316775) has been approved. Payment is under process. plz explain what is the time taken in tranfered of my account

  76. About the minimum membership period, does it mean that the membership should be from the same company or in case I have changed my job but got my PF transferred would it work.

  77. What is the rule about 36 month no contribution? No interest will be given etc. Is that applicable after 36 months or within 36 months? My uncles contribution stopped in Jan 2010 (case of wrongful termination in court). He got interest for 2 years. This year’s interest still not credited.

    1. Basavaraj Tonagatti

      Shrikant-Sorry for the delayed reply. It is applicable to accounts where no contribution for 36 or more than 36 months. But you will receive this dormant period of 35 months interest. But after reaching 36 or more months no interest will be contributed to such accounts effective from April 1, 2011.
