EPFO recently introduced the EPF Composite Claim Form. This is a single form for all types of withdrawal (including partial or advance withdrawal) with or without employer signature.
Last year, EPFO introduced the UAN based EPF and EPS withdrawal forms to simplify the process (New EPF Withdrawal Forms-Withdraw without employer signature). To simplify the process, now the single form is introduced as EPF Composite Claim Form.
This will replace the existing Forms 19, Form 10C and Form 31. Form 19 is used for EPF final settlement, Form 10C is used for EPS withdrawal and Form 31 is used for EPF partial withdrawal. are accepted for PF Final Settlement, EPS Pension.
Last year the forms were changed to UAN based Form 19, Form 10C and Form 31. If your EPF account is UAN based, then you can easily withdraw the EPF without employer signature. These UAN forms can be used if your EPF is UAN activated with KYC details like Aadhar number, Bank Account, and other KYC details have been linked to your UAN.
Let me explain the same from below image the process.
You noticed that even though the process is improved by removing employer in UAN based EPF withdrawal, it still complicated due to number of forms involved.
Hence, now EPFO come up with single EPF Composite Claim Form which you can use for EPF withdrawal, partial withdrawal, advance, and EPS withdrawal.
EPF Composite Claim Form Types
There are two types of forms.
1) EPF Composite Claim Form (Aadhar)
If your UAN has been linked with Aadhar and bank details, this form can be submitted for all types of EPF withdrawals. The attestation of an employer is not required and this form can be submitted to EPFO directly.
2) EPF Composite Claim Form (Non-Aadhar)
If your UAN has not yet been linked with Aadhar and bank details, this form can be submitted for all types of EPF withdrawals. The attestation of an employer is required and the form has to routed through an employer.
When can you use EPF Composite Claim Forms?
This EPF Composite Claim Form can be used for below purpose.
# EPF Final Settlement
# EPF Partial or Advance withdrawals for purposes like;
- Housing Loan, Purchase of site, Construction of house, renovation of house etc.,
- Medical treatment of self/family member
- One year before retirement
- Investment in Varistha Pension Bima Yojana
- Marriage of self / son / daughter / brother / sister etc.,
# EPS Pension Withdrawal
EPF Withdrawal Process using EPF Composite Claim Form (Aadhaar and Non-Aadhaar)
Now the process of withdrawal using EPF Composite Claim Form will be as below.
You noticed that if your Bank Account and Aadhaar Card is linked to your UAN number then it is the easiest process to withdraw the EPF or EPS.
New Single Page EPF Composite Claim Form (Aadhar) and (EPF Composite Claim form (Non-Aadhar) Download
# You can download the new single page EPF Composite Claim Form (Aadhaar). Below is the sample image of the form.
# You can download the new single page EPF Composite Claim Form (Non-Aadhaar). Below is the sample image of the form.
EPF Partial Withdrawals & New Instructions (Effective from February 2017)
# As of now, if you want to take advance or loan from EPF, then you have to submit the ‘Declaration Form’ along with Form 31 or Form 31 (UAN). However, with the introduction of EPF Composite Claim Form, you no need to submit such declaration.
# You no need to submit any other documents or certificate along with EPF Composite Claim Form for the purpose of withdrawals like Housing loan, Marriage, construction of house and education expenses. Instead of this, you have to self-certify the Common withdrawal form.
# Submission of EPF Composite Claim Form (Aadhar) / (EPF Composite Claim form (non-Aadhar) is construed as ‘self-certification’ for the above said partial withdrawals, for which no document would be required to be submitted to the EPFO offices.
Hope this much information is enough to use this newly launched single page EPF Composite Claim Form at ease.

Glory
Hi Sir,
PF amount as per EPFO passbook I got but the problem is with pension amount Sir. Pension amount as per the EPFO passbook is 7000 but I got less Sir. 1125rs difference.
What to do Sir?
Because my PF along with pension is less than 25K that’s why will it get deducted in my pension?
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Dear Glory,
If your service is less than 10 years, then you will never get the full EPS. They pay you based on the Table D calculation.
SREEKALA U
Hello Sir,
My husband passed away recently and his office is based out of Bangalore whereas we are in Hyd. Their office has sent me 3 copies of Composite Death claim for PF and asked to sign and send them whereas one of my acquintances said that Form 10D,Form 20, Form 5IF and composite deathclaim form need to be submitted. Which is right procedure. Also I do not know if his PF account is linked to his Aadhar or not is it ok. One more thing is should employer sign on this document or can I at my end fill in all details, attached required docs and send to EPFO, if yes, whether in HYD or BLR.
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Dear Sreekala,
Better to follow the employer route.
Gautam

Dear Gautam,
You can apply for second employer withdrawal also.
Saifuddin
Hi Sir,
My name is Saifuddin.
I resigned my Job on Jan 11th 2019. When I tried to withdraw my PF amount after 60 days online, it is showing an error that DOE of EPF is incorrect. Then I asked my company for Joint Declaration form for correcting the DOE and sent it to PF office through courier. But still now there is no response from them. When i tried to raise an issue through Grievance cell, they are giving a reply stating to submit the Form again.
Please help me to sort this issue out.
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Dear Saifuddin,
Why not visit the regional EPFO and resolve it?
Glory
Thank you Sir for answering all my queries.

Basavaraj Tonagatti
Dear Geetali,
Better in Kerala Office.
Glory
Even for composite claim form non aadhar(physical mode), do I need to re-upload PAN and Aadhar details in UAN?
Previously I have mentioned to you in the earlier post that I have changed my name and Fathers name in Aadhar and PAN recently.
Second question, employer is saying they won’t send the forms to PF office. They have asked me to send. Can I send the forms to PF office after employers attestation?
Third question, both PAN and Aadhar or only Aadhar should be updated in UAN under KYC for PF less than 50K?
Fourth question, KYC approvals are done by employers or EPFO?
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Dear Glory,
It is always best first to update your KYC and then proceeds for the withdrawal. Yes, you can do so by sending on your own. Both PAN and Aadhaar should be updated. Final approval of KYC is by EPFO.
Glory
Sir,
My employer didn’t stamp on Form 15G forms. I mean he stamped(company seal) on composite claim form, aadhar and PAN forms but not on Form 15G forms. So will my Pf forms get rejected?
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Dear Glory,
I don’t think so.
Glory
Sir,
You are the only person who solves my Pf queries. My employer doesn’t support me in anyway. Thank you so much Sir. One more query Sir. I have worked in two companies. 2 Pfs are linked to same Uan. First I have withdrawn 2nd company PF. But the issue is with 1st company PF.
I told you Sir earlier that I have changed my name and Fathers name in Aadhar and PAN cards. So when I tried to resubmit the new or changed details in UAN under KYC. The approval is going to 2nd company employer. Because the UAN is linked to second company Sir. Now what to do?
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Dear Glory,
You have to wait for their approval. If they are not co-operative, then raise an issue with EPFO Grievance Cell Online.
Glory
I got the PF of the 2nd company long back and it’s been 2 and half years I came out of that company.
Glory
For composite claim form non aadhar. One
set of composite claim form non aadhar is enough along with identity proofs?Cause I have signed and given 2 sets of the composite claim form non aadhar and he has given me only one set with company sign.
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Dear Glory,
I am not sure why they took two set of copies.
Glory
Previously my employer has approved my aadhar and PAN details in UAN.
But recently I have changed my name and Fathers name in my Aadhar and PAN.
EPFO has also approved my name and father’s name in EPFO database.
So in UAN, now it is showing as Aadhar and PAN Not Available.
So do I need to resubmit my Aadhar and PAN details in UAN under KYC?
Second question, my PF is 25000. Even then do I need to update my PAN details in UAN?
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Dear Glory,
Yes, it is better to resubmit for UAN KYC. Your EPF amount in no way related to KYC update. It is mandatory to update the KYC details.

Anirban Das
In the UAN site if I want to apply for PF advance for Construction of Home it shows “Total Service is less than 60 months”.
However as per fourth amendment scheme 2017,it has been changed to 3 years. But in the UAN site it still shows 5 years and I can’t select it.
Is this correct or can I apply through other way?
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Dear Anirban,
I think they have not yet updated the portal. Better to apply through offline mode.

Ahmed
Dear Sir,
I have few queries and they are as follow:
1. I worked for two of the companies and one was in hyderabad and then moved to Mumbai for work for the 2nd one.
2. I now had 2 EPF accounts ( but UAN number is Unique and the PF office for the previous one is in Hyderabad and Mumbai was in Pune ),
I mistakenly have withdrawn the amount from the 2nd company online which was in Mumbai and I thought that my previous PF amount had got transferred automatically since it is an online one.
3. Now when I got to know that my previous PF money is still lying with the previous EPF account then I had to apply for the transfer online and when I applied for the transfer, I got a form 13 and on the form they mentioned that I have to sign and send it to the previous employer.
I would like to know that after sending Form 13 to the previous employer, will the previous employer need to send these documents to PF office
or can they do online or do they need to do it manually?
How much time does it needed. Can I withdraw it now as I had already applied for the transfer of EPF online?
Regards
Ahmed
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Dear Ahmed,
“I would like to know that after sending Form 13 to the previous employer, will the previous employer need to send these documents to PF office”-YES. It may take around 15-20 days of time.
Ahmed
Thank you sir
Debashakti
Hi Ahmed,
My previous UAN number is almost 4 year old and the PF was maintained by a trust. The UAN is active, Adhar verified. I can log in and view the attached pf account to it. When i am trying to withdraw it is saying, the organization is exempted from PF. The same message populating when I am trying to check the passbook. Is there any way we can transfer the PF amount from the old UAN to the current UAN or manual withdraw is the only option??
Regards,
Debashakti
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Debashakti,
Better to try manual transfer as it is a trust.

Uma Sowjanya
Hello Sir,Congratulations for doing excellent knowledge sharing blog
I have a query about PF settlement . One of my friend’s last working day in her previous company was nov.30th and she agreed to join another company on 1st december. But suddenly her previous company extended her notice period to one month more. Since she had formally joined the new company,she had to continue there. But due to technical requirement she worked to previous company with late shifts and they paid her salary with PF for the month of December fully. She wants to close that account and wants to open a new PF account for new company.
Now question is, will it be okay if her new company also pays PF contribution for the month of December?
Will there be any problem with UIN number if she closes old account and apply for new account?
Please suggest.
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Uma-“will it be okay if her new company also pays PF contribution for the month of December?”-No problem. Regarding UAN, she can use the same UAN.

Joseph George
Hi Mr. Basavaraj Tonagatti, thank you for the detailed articles and information that you share. Can you please advise me for the following situation. I have worked with multiple employers over the last approximately 20 years and have never had gap in my employment. I am currently employed and have a UAN for my present employer. My previous PF accounts were all non-Trust held. They were all before UAN and hence are not linked to my UAN nor withdrawn.
What are the options before me. Can I withdraw each of these old PF amounts? Do I have to get them transferred to the current employer? In one company I worked for 4 months, another 11 months and the others at least above a year each.
Thanks,
Joseph
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Joseph- The best option is to transfer all old accounts to new one.
Joseph George
Thanks a lot
Pradyumna Mohanty
Hi sir, I have 3pf accounts in my UAN. From last month I quit my previous organisation where I worked for 3months.can I withdraw pf from the organization which I left 3months before by offline? And which address I need to mention? My present address or the address which is there in my adhaar card.
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Pradyumna-Yes, you can withdraw EPF but not EPS (as to withdraw EPS, you must completed at least 6 months of job).
Pradyumna Mohanty
I have completed 1 year prior to join last company… As I said I have 3 pf no 2 of them are more than 1 year… Any other documents required or only the form is enough.
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Pradyumna – As per me, only forms will be enough.

HinBasavaraj,
After being frustrated with the PF transfer i decided to withdraw the whole PF .
But i realized that PAN is not verified on EPFO portal .
So my question is:
Will there be any tax to be levied if PF amount is less than 50 thosand and PAN is not verified ,also i submitted thr PF withdrawal via online mode
Please suggest,how i can revoke the PF withdrawal ,in case if tax is levied on PF withdrwal.
Please need your urgent help.
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Vijendra-If you not submit the PAN, then they will deduct the TDS. However, if your EPF account is more than 5 years, then it is tax-free and if it less than that, then taxable income for you. You can claim the TDS by filing IT return.
vijender sharma
Hi Basu,
I have withdrawn the Employee Share and Employer share into my account.
But, Pension contribution is still not got withdrawn. I applied online using form 19 and 10c .
Please suggest why the Pension contribution is not getting withdrawn.
As i already mentioned earlier that my PAN was not verified and my PF was less than 5 years.
Regards,
Vijender Sharma

Felix
Hi,
I have submitted my claim online for epf withdrawal and today I received a message stating”IT IS REQUESTED TO SUBMIT THE SAME AFTER UPDATION OF REVISED ECR FOR CONFIRMATION OF PENSION CONT”.
I had submitted composite claim form(Adhaar) and all the details were verified by my ex employer like PAN,Date of leaving,reason for leaving,adhaar number ,still my online claim got rejected.Any help regarding this will be greatly appreciated.
1)Is it employer’s mistake ?
2)Do I need to re-submit once again?
Regards,
Felixar
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Felix-I am not sure what went wrong. Inform your employer to be in touch with EPFO.
Ravi
Hi Sir,
I have 8 years+ continuous service and currently working in a company and this company is not part of EPFO.
I have applied for PF final settlement (19C) and EPS (10C). I need clarification on below two points:
1. For 19c and 10c they have approved 50% of my total amount even I have applied for final settlement. I checked my PF Passbook and its showing 50% amount as current balance. Why so?
2. Today, I got 50% approved amount but 10% TDS has been deducted. As I have 8 years+ continuous service than why this 10% TSD has been deducted. Please let know if I can get back this 10% TSD amount.
Please explain above to points.
Thanks
Ravi
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Ravi-1) They send the payment in two installments. Hence, wait and check later.
2) You have to file IT return and get back it claiming as this income is tax-free for you as you completed more than 5 years of EPF.
Ravi
Thanks for the information…!!
They approved 415197 and after deducting 10% they have credited 373677 in my account.
In this case which amount I need to show as tax free while filing IT returns.
Please confirm.
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Ravi-You have to show Rs.415197.
Ravi
Thank you so much..!!
Ravi
Hi Sir,
As you said they do in two installments, when I submit the form, I got a claim Id and against that claim id they approved some amount (around 50% of total PF amount) and this approved amount has both the parts Employee and Employer.
It’s not like that they have approved Employee part and not the Employer part.
Do I need to submit the form again? If not, generally how long they will take to approve the rest of the amount?
-Ravi
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Ravi-It is not about the approval amount I am saying but about the fund transfer. If you have concerns then raise an issue with EPFO Grievance Cell Online.
NP
Sir..Thanks for your valuable guidance.
But today i received mail form EPFO.. CLAIM SETTLED AND 43100 /- amount credited within 2-3 days. But sir my total amount is more that 80000/- means employer shares and pension contributions not received. So when it will get.. and what process i will do?
Basavaraj Tonagatti
NP-They usually pay in part like employee share and then employer share. You will get part of EPS, not fully (if your service is less than 10 years).
Ananthalakshmi
Thank you for this helpful article Basavaraj.
My ex-employer is based in Bangalore.

Pritish
Hi,
I worked with an MNC from 2006-2012, recently on 05th December 2018 i submitted my Form19 and affidavits with my ex-employer. They asked me to create UAN meanwhile he will process the PF docs with EPFO office in hyderabad.. its been more than month, he is advising that the EPFO office is not accepting the dcuments since the Telangana split issue and until even today they’re not accepting. I’ve done my complete research online and it seems the ex-employer gave me incorrect info, the UAN has to be generated by EMPLOYER itself. At present I have my UAN id linked with Aadhar Card however the Bank details and KYC am unable to update as it shows an error message – ‘ This functionality will be available, once your UAN is linked to any establishment.’
I sent a mail to the EPFO HYD head and the helpdesk team – the response from them is they haven’t received any forms yet.
Questions:
1- Is it possible for a EPFO not to accept forms for 2MONTHS?
2. Whom and how do I approach a higher authority to complain this situation? Anyone in Central govt. that I can approach and escalate?
3. How do I link the Establishment with my UAN by myself online?
Your valuable inputs and support are highly appreciated.
Thanks,

Pratik
Dear Sir,
I have submitted the Aadhar based Claim downloaded from your link and and submitted it to the PF office for final settlement. As my KYC and Bank account was already done , so the claim was settled within a week. However , as I have completed 12 years with my previous employer, I cannot withdraw the pension portion. Initially the PRO officer said that as I have submitted the Aadhar based composite form , no separate 10C form is required for issueing pension scheme certificate. However, when I filed a grievance , they replied that 10C is not submitted. The claim was settled on 19th September, 2017. What should I do?
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Pratik-EPFO officer information is correct. You raise the same issue with a grievance that you used composite claim form. Hence, request them to settle EPS also.

Swathi
Hello Sir.. I m trying to withdraw my PF and my Experience with last company is 4 years and my overall exp s 9 yrs. When I submit my composite nonaadhar form, what should I give in DATE OF JOINING THE ESTABLISHMENT Field? My DOJ of first company or the DOJ of latest one?
If I give latest company DOJ, then my exp will be 4 yrs.. In tat case should I submit 15G as well?
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Swathi-If the same EPF is used for 9 years, then the date of joining should be the first company date of joining.
Swathi
Thankyou Sir. I have worked only in 2 companies, Previously i have PF number and the amount is transferred to the new PF number. Later on this new UAN concept introduced. So i have only one UAN in my profile. But the EPFO Profile has the Latest company’s DOJ. Kindly let me know what should i do now??
Also, should i submit 15G?
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Swathi-I think it is wrong. Better first to resolve issue by contacting EPFO Grievance Cell Online.

Hi Sir, This is Abhilash. I need your suggestions on my PF queries. Last 2 months back I have resigned my previous company. Now I am in need of fund for my sister education so I have decided to withdraw my PF amount. But my previous employer haven’t not contributed their contribution to govt from past 1year. Now if I applied PF also it will get rejected. Pleased help on this and please suggest me for further action.
Abhilash
My previous employer don’t have any interest in paying of PF and F&F amount to employees. I don’t have any idea about EPFO.If I visit PF office also to whom should I ask. Please guideme on this at the earliest.

Rahul Sharma
Dear Sir
Please tell how me. I have to Uan account. and want to transfer Previous Uan Amount to Present . What Should i have do for it.
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Rahul-Request EPFO through your employer for merging both UAN.
Ankur
I have two member ID in one UAN so how can i withdraw my pf. plz help which form should i fill to claim.
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Ankur-If you are working, then you are not allowed to withdraw. You have to request for merger of both UAN to EPFO through your employer.
Ankur
sir resign from my job I try to merge two pf by online but its showing that personal detail are different .I just want to know that if i claim my pf is that both pf will claim or not.
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Ankur-Hard to say without knowing much about your EPF details. Better to visit the nearest EPFO and clarify your doubt.

Hi Sir,
I have worked in two companies, I want to withdraw both the PF amounts using CCF non-aadhar procedure instead of CCF aadhar.
But the EPFO told me today that there should not be two PF accounts.
My question is, can I apply for withdrawal by going to both the companies or do I need to transfer the PF amount from one company to another and then apply for withdrawal?
Please suggest me.
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Glory-Try to withdraw separately. If they reject, then no option but to transfer and then withdraw.
glory
As I have said in my previous comments that I have worked in two companies A&B and have 2 EPF accounts.
And moreover I have visited the EPFO office, they have said that transfer is not possible as you have resigned from the company. (Only if you are working in a company, you can transfer otherwise you cannot).
I have consulted the concerned PF person of my company, she told if you withdraw Company’s B PF using a single UAN (which is linked to both the EPF accounts), you cannot withdraw using the same UAN to withdraw Company’s A PF.
And she was sure of the alternative.
My question is, if I have withdrawn Company’s B PF using the UAN, how will I get Company’s A PF? or What’s the other alternative?
Please suggest me.
glory
****She (PF person of my company) was NOT sure of the alternative.
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Glory-It is not the rule that if one is not having UAN linked to EPF means you can’t withdraw. Because UAN concept came recently. Hence, if they are not supportive, then you have to knock the door of EPFO Grievance Cell.
glory
I have both EPF accounts linked under single UAN number.
As said earlier, the concerned PF person says, since you left the company you cannot initiate the transfer (transfer of pf from company A to B)
And she have asked me to generate new UAN and link it to Company’s A PF. But I have already have UAN linked to both the PFs (company A&B).
When I check “know your uan status”, it already says UAN (the UAN which is linked to both the PF accounts ) is active and it has been activated. And moreover under “our services- for citizens link” is not working. How can I generate a new UAN?
How do I get the PF amount of company A ? Please advise me please Sir.
glory
is there anyway can i deactivate or de-link PF account of company A?
Please suggest me Sir.
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Glory-You can’t do so.
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Glory-Better to raise the issue with EPFO Grievance Cell Online.
Glory
Hello Sir,
The “date of exit” has not been mentioned in the UAN portal by my ex-employer (who is not at all co-operating).
I have been unemployed since more than five months.
My question is, is it now necessary that date of exit should be updated by my ex-employer in the UAN portal before applying for PF withdrawal or without updating the date of exit, can I apply for PF?
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Glory-Your past employer has to update. If not updating, then better to knock EPFO Grievance Cell.
Arjun
Basu sir, I have not updated KYC details. Is it possible to withdraw then? Plz advice
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Arjun-NO.
Chiranjit Bhowmik
Hello Sir,
I will need to withdraw an amount as advance withdrawal for construction of a house.
How to know about the eligible amount?
What are the documents required to be submitted with my application (Other than FORM 31 UAN and FORM 31 Declaration)?
Regards,
Chiranjit
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Chiranjit-Refer “EPF withdrawal for house, flat or construction of property“.
Arjun
Hi Basu,
I need your suggestion on pf withdrawal online.
I have been allotted with two UAN numbers & I would like to withdraw amount from my previous company. Is it possible to do so? As you shared in your one of blogs, employer not updated exit date and even I haven’t shared my experience details with present employer. Due to this reason I got two UAN, instead of transferring I would like to withdraw amount from previous company.
Please advise me on this.
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Arjun-You can withdraw but if KYC is done, then hard to do that as EPFO will understand two UAN numbers allotted to a single employee. Hence, try your luck.
Glory
Hello Sir,
I have bank, pan card and aadhar details approved in KYC and UAN is also linked. I have worked in two companies (A&B).
Since company B (which I have left) is not co-operating, can I withdraw whole PF amount (PF amount of both A&B companies) using the Composite Claim Form? or is it necessary for me to transfer A’s company amount to B’s company and then apply for withdrawal? But I have been unemployed for more than 2 months.
i.e. Can I go directly to EPFO office and submit Composite Claim Form to get both companies (A&B) PFs without the involvement of the employers? or should I apply for transfer ? What should be done Sir?
Please suggest me Sir.
Thank you.
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Glory-If both EPF accounts are fully KYC complied and linked under single UAN, then use the EPF Unified Portal and apply for online withdrawal.
Glory
Thank you Sir for your quick response. But I have one more query Sir. In the Composite Claim Form (Aadhar), it has been written as “The total service in both the present & previous establishments is counted and therefore its advisable to merge all PF accounts”.
Since merging requires the approval of employer. I don’t want to route it through an employer as he’s not co-operating with me Sir.
My question is, I have two EPF accounts (A&B companies) linked under single UAN, but is it necessary now to merge both the accounts in order to apply for PF withdrawal?
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Glory-As per me NOT REQUIRED.
Glory
Thank you so much Sir for an immediate response.
Glory
Sir,
I have 20k towards employee share, employer share 5k. Pension benefits 15k. (Rough figures). But today I got a text from epfo which says 12k has been deposited.
My question is, will the pf amount be received in parts?
Will I get total amount (employer share +employee share+pension benefits)?
Please guide me sir please.
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Glory-They usually pay in part.
Maqsood
Hi Basavaraj,
Nice to see your portal and prompt reply to the people.
I have left my job after 6 years of teaching in a college. I left the job in March 2017 and not joined anywhere. I want to do final settlement of my PF account. There is approximately Rs. 1,00,000 in my PF account. I have UAN number. I have already uploaded KYC documents (AAdhar, PAN and Bank details) on the portal but the status is still “pending”.
Kindly tell me;
(1) How can I apply for the final settlement?
(2) Will there be any tax deduction on the amount?
(3) what forms are required to fill and where to submit?
I look forward to your reply:-)
God Bless.
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Maqsood-You can use composite claim form. As per me, your withdrawal will not attract any tax.
Maqsood
Thanks for reply.
should i use aadhar based or non aadhar based composite form?
akash Chauhan
my bank details is linked with uan but I dont have pf no. and my pan card and adhar is not linked ..what is the easiest way to get pf in this case

Bharath

sameer
I have received all this messages (EPF) today, my question is, am I going to get payment through cheque or bank transfer..? and how much time its gonna take for payment..??
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Sameer-Please don’t share your personal details like Bank Account Number or EPF account numbers on such public platform. Hence, I deleted all those details. EPFO will transfer money to your bank directly. It hardly takes around 10-15 days of time.
AS

Tatai Kumar
Dear Sir,
I joined from company A to Company B 2 months back. Company A uses their own PF trust account. My PF has not been transferred yet from A to B. Also on EPFO website my Aadhar details were not added. Recently , i needed some funds due to medical emergency hence decided for PF withdrawal. So I went on the EPFO page and tried updating my Aadhar information. It went into pending state and is like that till now.
So , I went to my current employer B and asked them to approve the request. They said that the tool which helps them to approve such requests is not working for more than 2 months now. They said many companies are facing the same problem. They asked me that they can help me with the withdrawal using the Composite Non Aadhar form but the issue is there will not be sufficient funds in new PF account (as i said corpus lies with PF trust of company A). In this situation please suggest what I should do ?? Kindly help sir. Thanks…
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Tatai-Sad to hear all these. You have to immediately raise the issue with EPFO Grievance Cell Online.

Basavaraj Tonagatti
Saran-You have to update the bank and Aadhaar by visiting the EPFO personally. But do remember that if you are using the same UAN in your current employment, then it is impossible to withdraw the old EPF.
Saran
Hi , I have joined delhi but my ex employer is chennai and both UAN account number are different.
If i go directly to EPFO office can i update successfully Bank and Aadhar no in UAN account?
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Saran-In that case you can withdraw. Yes, there is no other option NOW as UAN Helpdesk is also not working.

Sourav
Hi Basavaraj,
This is really informative. I am facing a typical problem. I would require to withdraw from EPF for purchasing house. But there are some incorrect details in EPF records (father surname and date of leaving) without correcting which my present employer is not agreeing to take forward my part withdrawal application. On the other hand my dates for registration for my new home is nearing and I am unable to arrange funds from any other source unless I ask from my friends and relatives (which I do not want to). I have already send the joint declaration form for corrections. But is it true that even if the employer verifies my part withdrawal form (composite claim form) the EPF can reject my claim. Please suggest.
Best,
Sourav
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Sourav-The corrections can be made through your employer. How can they stay away from their responsibilities?
Jaya Subba Reddy
Hello Basavaraj,
I have completed 5 years tenure in my org and i am planning to withdraw partial PF for my house purchase down payment. My AADHAAR is verified in UAN. But to unknown reasons, i am not able to verify PAN in UAN site. ( but in incometax site, both my AADHAAR and PAN are linked).
Please suggest how much money i can withdraw for house purchase and procedure.
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Dear Jaya,
Your advance withdrawal towards house purchase not depends on the PAN number linking. But it is better to link it by visiting the regional EPFO.

April 11, 2017 at 8:56 PM
Hi Basavaraj,
My UAN is activated and employer has only completed Bank account update for KYC as per EPFO e-sewa site.
I cannot see any PF amount reflecting in Service History but my salary slips have the PF amount details.
I have updated AAdhar and PAN details myself in UAN Site and they are showing pending KYC.
UAN Card shows KYC done but Aadhar and PAN are not yet verified by employer.
I have linked my Aadhar to the same bank account myself by visiting the bank.
How can I withdraw PF ( which form I have to use if I don’t want to go through employer)? I am not working for 3 months now. I want to withdraw full amount. Which forms I need to submit( 15G, aadhar/non-aadhar etc).
Also don’t know why the PF amount is not visible. Can you help?

Hi Basavaraj,
First of all …Keep up your good work!!
I am unemployed since Dec 2016 and I am planning to withdraw my PF.
I have my UAN activated and KYC details updated including Aadhar, PAN and Bank Details.
But the IFSC Code for my Bank Account is Incorrectly Updated.
In the UAN Member Portal @ https://unifiedportal-mem.epfindia.gov.in/memberinterface/
When I tried to update the same account with correct IFSC, it says same account cannot be added twice.
When I added a new bank account, it is in PENDING status. It did not ask to upload any scanned copy of the Bank details.
Could you please help me with this:
# Will the new bank details be added to the UAN ?
If not
# What else can I do to update my KYC Details without the employer verification.
The UAN Helpdesk link @ http://59.180.231.60:9094/UANHD/ is not available.
The TollFree Number 1800118005 is always either busy or invalid.
Kindly Help!!

Nitisha
Hi Basavaraj,
I haven’t received pension certificate from previous 2 organisation, where I worked for 5+ years and 6 months respectively (have got the PF transferred though). Also, my UAN is not linked with Aadhar or any bank. As per your article, I believe I have to fill up Composite Claim Form (Non Aadhar) for pension but I have a few queries:
1. Do I have to send the filled form to EPFO or previous employers? If it is to be sent to EPFO, then how would they know about my previous employers? Form does not ask for employer details.
2. The form asks to declare that the member is not employed for 2 months. Of course in my case it is ‘No’ but what are the implications if the member is employed.
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Nitisha-1) Yes to the previous employer if they are not merged with current EPF. Either you send to last employer or to EPFO. EPFO number enough to track the employer details.
2) You are not eligible to withdraw legally.
Nitisha
In that case, I’m lost again. My situation is- I’m currently working with 3rd employer. At 3rd employment only, I got PF transferred from previous 2 employers, assuming that the EPS will get transferred too. But the pension did not get transferred (validated by PF passbook).
I don’t need the funds right now hence, do not want to withdraw pension but I do want to consolidate pension from all the 3 employers so as to have control over my savings. Please guide me how to consolidate the EPS or how to get scheme certificates from previous employers/ EPFO.
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Nitisha-EPS will never get transferred. EPFO just update your service records. You will get scheme certificate once you complete 10 years of service.
V S Prasad
Dear Basavaraj,
I have been unemployed since 4 months and my Aadhaar details is not linked with UAN. To withdraw my Final settlement, PF office told me that i can only avail employee contribution. Balance after retirement period. My question is
1. can i chose composite Form ( Non-aadhaar) ?
2. If yes, which option do i need to select from reasons for PF withdrawal ? My employer has agreed for signing the application too.
3. Do i need to provide any declaration on non-employment
4. Do i need to enclose 15G form?
Thanks.
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Prasad-It is false that employer contribution be claimed at retirement ONLY. You can withdraw both now. You can choose composite claim form and claim. Yes, if you are eligible for filling Form 15G, then you have to submit it.
V S Prasad
Thanks so much. Am i right in saying that 15G is applicable only if withdrawal is less than 2.5Lacs ?
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Prasad-Not only withdrawal but your taxable income for that year is less than Rs.2.5 lakh.
amit
sir i am filling composite non aadhar form.
in first option ie claim applied for which option i have to tick(i had tick final pf settlemet) will pension withdrawl will be made along with pf withdrawl?? or i have to tick pension withdrawl benefit also along with final pf settlement option??
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Amit-You have to tick pension withdrawal benefit also along with final EPF settlement Option.
amit
Dear Sir
my employer has done settlement to pf office on 14 march. they are saying that they will submit my withdrawl forums to pf office only after 2 months.they are saying As per that process, there is waiting period of two months from the date of last working date. pls guide.
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Amit-Yes rules are there that you must be unemployed for 2 months. Hence, they are saying so.

Hi,
First of all, thank you for sharing this article. This is very helpful.
I wanted to check what are the next steps in submitting the form to EPFO office as an employer is not the channel anymore. Do I need to visit the EPFO office and submit the form or can I courier the form.
Also, the website has changed slightly and now it is unified epfo website. I have tried updating my aadhar details but no luck- my bank and PAN KYC is already completed- Any guidance?
Regards,
Munish
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Munish-Better to handover physically. Is your question regarding update is for withdrawal?
Munish Aggarwal
Yes. I want to link Aadhar Card and then use for withdrawal

Mr. Basavaraj, I’d like to thank you for your valuable articles on these subjects. I’d like to know if you have any advice for my case. I recently submitted a claim to withdraw my PF account. Now this particular PF account has been lying dormant for over 3 years now, you see what happened was that the company I was working for at that time closed down operations. They had applied for the PF withdrawal on my behalf then but was rejected and sadly the rejection letter went to the old address of the office, as such I was not aware of it.
It was only recently that I realized that I had such a PF account. So, I began the process of claiming it. However as mentioned before my employer no longer exists. So I had the forms 19 and 10c attested by my Bank Manager as the EPFO rules suggest. I had submitted these documents at the start of February of this year and I’ve just gotten a message from the EPFO office mentioning that my claim has been rejected due to “Reason of rejection: AUTHORISED OFFICERs SIGNATURE NOT TALLYING” now as you can tell this has confused me to no end. They also left this “Remarks by DA/AO:KINDLY ATTESTED IN THE CLAIM FORM 19 AND 10C FROM THE EMPLOYER WITH THE ESTABLISHMENT SEAL/OK”
I’d appreciate any advice you can give me regarding this matter.
Kind Regards,
Shashank

Shashank-You raise the issue with EPF Grievance Cell Online mentioning the situation which prompted you to go for banker attestation.

Hi Basu.
I left my job in april 2016 and i did not had my Aadhar number that time. I have got my UAN activated through EPF WEBSITE as it was mentioned on my salary slip. How can I get my aadhar number linked to my EPF ac to withdraw it ? Do I need to contact my last employer or is there a way to do it online so that i can withdraw my EPF amount without visiting my last employer?
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Nishant-Whether the EPF is linked to UAN?
Nishant
Yes, my EPF is linked to UAN. However I never submitted my Aadhar number to my previous employer as I got the same after leaving that job so Aadhar is surely not updated.
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Nishant-Then you have to use Non-Aadhaar form.
