We all know that we can check our EPF (Employee Provident Fund) balance through online. Later EPFO modified the service to receive balance status to your mobile as SMS. However, for that, you have to login to EPFO site and provide details. Recently EPFO started balance-checking facility of EPF through your mobile. No need to login to EPFO portal and provide details.
Note-
- EPF Mobile App-Activate UAN and Check EPF Balance
- New EPF Withdrawal Forms-Withdraw without employer signature
- 4 EPF withdrawal changes effective from Feb 2016
Let us the feature in detail. We all know that recently EPFO started UAN (Universal Account Number) facility. This is a unique number provided to each individual employee. Whenever you change your employer then you just need to quote this number. The past account balance will be transferred and connected with new employer automatically. It is easy for employer and employee to track their investment in EPF. You may read more about this facility in my earlier post of “EPF Universal Account Number (UAN) -What it is?“.
Check EPF balance through missed call
You can check EPF balance through missed call also. The details are as below.
# Employees registered on the UAN portal may get their details available with EPFO by giving a missed call at 011-22901406 from their registered mobile number.
# If the UAN of the employee is seeded with any one of the Bank A/c number, AADHAAR and PAN, he will get details of last contribution and EPF balance.
# To avail this facility, the mobile number must be activated with UAN at Unified Portal.
# Giving missed call from the registered mobile number at 011-22901406 automatically gets disconnected after two rings.
# This service is available free of cost to the member. Moreover, these services can be availed from non-smart phones also.
Check EPF balance through SMS
To make this UAN facility more attractive, EPFO now started SMS based balance-checking facility. Please remember that this facility is only meant to those who have UAN Account Number and have registered their mobile number during UAN activation. Belowisthe format and number detail to send the SMS.
From your UAN registered mobile number, you have to send SMS to number7738299899.The format of the message will be likeEPFOHO UAN <ENG>for receiving the message in English. Currently, EPFO provided an option to receive option to receive SMS in 10 languages (English, Hindi, Telugu, Punjabi, Gujarati, Marathi, Kannada, Malayalam, Tamil, and Bengali). Once you send the message, then EPFO will send you, the member details available with it along with details of the KYC, last contribution, and total EPF balance.
You may not receive the message if Aadhaar, PAN and bank account were digitally approved and provided by the employer. Hence, if you will not receive the SMS then contact your current employer. For further assistance of UAN/KYC queries, you may contact EPFO Toll-Free No. 1800118005from 09:15 AM to 05:45 PM on all seven days.

I changed my job an year back. My UAN was activated at the time of quitting y previous company (with KYC details). My previous company maintained PF in an exempted trust. My current company maintains it in EPF Office. My earlier PF is not yet transferred from my previous employer.
I tried to get my PF balance through the SMS option (my mobile number is linked to UAN). I got two messages :
1) One containing UAN, Name, Aadhar, PAN and Bank Details, and says “Last Contribution: 0, Total Contribution : 0”
2) Second contains only UAN without PAN and BANK Details, and says “Kindly register your KYC through Employer, to get contribution details and future services”.

Hello Sir,
I was working in a company A for 13 months, as I didn’t like the job, I quit it. But did so not in proper manner i.e not through Resignation (I just absconded as I had bond with the company to work for 24 months). Hence I can’t get back to that employer asking for UAN number. I have only PF No and EPS No. Can I get my PF amount back, If so what is the procedure. Please help me as I am not only person to do so, 50-60% of people who join that company will do the same thing. Please suggest the procedure so that it will be helpful for all of them.
Thank You
Regards
Basavaraj Tonagatti
RN-If you have UAN, then you no need to worry. When you join new organization, then simply provide this UAN. If you don’t have UAN, then you can request for online transfer using OTCP option of EPFO.
RN
Thank you for the information.
Previous company which I was working had EPF facility but the present company in which I am working has NPS facility. Then Can I transfer the amount using above said OTCP procedure.
Thanks in advance
Basavaraj Tonagatti
RN-You can’t transfer EPF to NPS (as of now).
RN
Thank You for the info.
I read in some newspaper that the Government is thinking of facilitating transfer of amount from EPF to NPS to encourage it. Is it so?
And when I tried to check my PF balance I got a error message that the credentials don’t match. What may be the reason?
Please shed some light on NPS.
Thanks in advance
Basavaraj Tonagatti
RN-Yes, the future is only NPS. The reason for error may be due to wrong info you provided.

I initiated my pf withdrawl claim 3 months ago, but recently i got to know that my saving bank a/c is on hold due to some kyc issue. Now i have regularize my a/c.
So pls tell me what will i do right now as one of my friend received his claim who also submitted the same at that time.
Pls reply
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Priyanka-what is the status of transfer in EPFO portal?
Priyanka
Sir
EPF portal is still showing that claim is approved for payment nd payment is under process. But i have some doubt that if bank returned the amount saying the a/c is on hold then, what is the process to again transfer the claim in same a/c.
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Priyanka-In that case contact the regional EPFO for the same. First get the information whether the payment reached your bank or not. Based on that you have to take the next step.

Rohit
Sir,
Whenever I try to check my PF balance it says “Service are unavailable due to the heavy workload. Kindly try after some time. Inconvenience is regretted .”
I kind of feel something is wrong, even when I try to do this on Saturday or Sunday it gives the same message. Once I tried in the middle of the night (around 2 AM) and it gave the same message. Do you have any idea why does this happen?
I tried sending SMS and Miss calls to EPFO to get my balance. As I have two PFs linked to my UAN, it just shows the status of one PF as “Settled”. How do I check my balance? is there any other way?
Rohit
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Rohit-It is Govt organization. So you must have patiency 🙂 Check your balance in this EPFO Portal.

ASI
Dear Sir,
My Case
I have worked with Company “A” for 11 years till 30th June 2014 ,Then Company “B” for 5 months and currently working in Company “C”
Having talked to my HR team of my current employer I am given to understand that :
1) Option of transfer from “B” company to present employer is possible since company “B” employer has paid all their dues and transfer can be initiated and there won’t be any problem here.
2) Now as far as company “A” transfer is concerned my present employer has informed that even if say Company “A” may have filled the (EE +ER) contributions till March2014(tentative) and if a request is Raised from Present employer to company “A” for Transfer, the transfer may be rejected since I have worked till 30th June,2014 and Part transfer will be rejected by EPF office online and the Transfer claim will remain stuck till the time complete payments are done in the EPF account by Company A (Total employee +Employer “A” till June2014).
3) The SMS system and the missed called service are excellent initiatives by the EPFO office but it does not show the month till which each contribution in paid for a particular EPF number…how can this suggestion be given to EPFO office
4) I am really worried for point 1 and 2 since while linking the UAN no the DOB and DOJ joining of Company “A” are not available and linking of the UAN is not happening…..Company A response is weak. So will it effect by transfer as mentioned in point 1 also if I try to transfer as per point 1?
Please do guide me on this matter.
With warm regards
ASI
Basavaraj Tonagatti
ASI-2) Let EPFO initiate the criminal case to company A. You apply for transfer, let us see the result and response from EPFO. 4) Why you have to worry about point 1, when you can easily transfer from company B?

Sir,
Can 2 or more UANs get allotted to one person ?
I was earlier working in company A, and that time there was no UAN. I switched to company B and thereafter my PF account was created and it now shows than UAN has been requested for this account in B. Meanwhile I also received the UAN number from company A. The PF accounts of A & B has not yet been merged.
Now i am in company C and have provided them with UAN of A, and also going to deposit Form-13 for transfer from company B. Am I doing it correct ? PLease advise.
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Gourav-No, one person can have only one UAN. Yes, you are on right track.

Shankar
Dear Sir/Madam
My name is Shankar, recently I changed my job from Y to X company it is almost completed 6 months. My concern is the allotted PF number in X company belongs to other person within the same organization, whatever the PF amount is deducting every month from my salary it is directly credited to other person PF account. When (4 months back) I tried to transfer my “Y” company PF amount to existing company showing different person name from that time only I came to know that PF account in “X” company is belongs to me.
Immediately , I went back to employer asked how its happened and said we will work on that and get back to you.
However, till date I didn’t get any response whenever I ask they are telling it will take some time to resolve but they are not ready to give any clarity on that, how it was happened and also before joining I provided the old company UAN details to them, but no use.
We would request you to assist on this how to fix and get correct PF number from them.
Regards,
Shankar
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Shankar-It is completely your current employer fault. You can fight with them easily as you have UAN number also.

Rohit
My sincere suggestion- those who change jobs- take a week off- visit your of EPF office and take out your money- soon you will realise how difficult it is- give whatever penalty for early withdrawal- but take out and invest in PPF. In long run you will make more money and save thousand litres of blood and dissapointment.
Transferring EPF is one of the most non-transperent procedures in India. In my third job I realised that my first job’s EPF had never got transferred to second one (even though all paperwork had been done…the application had been lost in EPF office…etc etc)……It was a garangutan process of withdrawing my hard earned money…………….
EPF is the biggest blackhole in India……either see it as a contribution to fund PM’s foreign visits or take it out and use it for your own purpose…..
