Effective from 27th May 2017, you can now transfer EPF online using EPF Unified portal. Earlier option of using OTCP (Online Transfer Claim Portal) is no more in use now. Hence, let us understand the process.
As I pointed above, earlier there was a separate portal meant for requesting online transfer claims. However, from 27th May 2017, that process was also brought into EPF Unified Portal.
Who can use transfer EPF online using EPF Unified portal?
Before jumping into trying of this feature, first, let us understand who are eligible to transfer EPF online using EPF Unified portal.
# You must be KYC complied.
# Those employees whose Aadhaar, Bank Account, Bank IFSC details seeded against their UAN in the Unified portal will only be able to transfer EPF online using EPF Unified portal.
# However, Aadhaar is not mandatory for submitting an online transfer request.
# Your date of exit with reasons of exit from the previous establishment should be available in the unified portal.
# Your date of joining should also be available in the unified portal.
# Only one transfer request against the previous member ID can be accepted.
How to transfer EPF online using EPF Unified portal?
Now you understood the eligibility conditions for transfer EPF online using EPF Unified portal. Let us move on and try to understand the procedure for the same.
Step 1-Visit EPF Unified Portal Login Page.
Step 2-Then the home page looks like below. Here, you have to select the option “Online Servies”.
Step 3-From the drop-down menu from Online Services, select “Transfer Request”.
Step 4-When you click the “Transfer Request” tab, then you can see your personal information like your name, bank details, contact details and all other stuff. Along with that, you will also the see the latest EPF account to which you want to transfer your old EPF account. The screen looks like below.
Step 5-Now the next step is to select an employer from whom you want the PDF file which you download and about to send to be attested. Either you can choose your current employer or past employer. Along with that you also need to enter UAN number to generate OTP and also the transfer request PDF file.
Step 6-Then the next and final step is to enter the OTP you received and click on the tab “Submit”. You are required to submit the signed copy of the transfer claim PDF to the selected employer within a period of 10 days.
Once you send the online request and also submitted the PDF file to your employer, then the next process is purely left to your employer and the EPFO.
Hope this information will be a big relief to all those who are trying to transfer their earlier EPF accounts under the current UAN number.

Satyabrata Dash
My transfer status shows “pending at previous employer”
The transfer is from trust to non exempt firm.
The trust has already provided Annexure K, with UTR No. And complete details of pf acccount to which amount is to be transferred. But when I approached Kandivali epfo, they are insisting on not having received the amount yet and which is why they have not credited it to my pf account.
Its been 3 years that I have been running pillar to post.
Trust says amount has been transferred.
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Dear Satyabrata,
Why not you get the letter from Trust that money is transferred?

Srinivas
Hi Basu,
Thanks for the detailed procedure. I have followed your procedure and applied for the online transfer in Dec 2019. My previous employer is a non exempt category and my present employer is an exempt category with its own trust. The online status changed to Accepted by field office, in Jan 2020. The passbook for my previous employer shows the amount transferred in Jan 2020 along with interest till Dec 2019. But when I check my present employer trust statement, my account doesn’t show the transferred amount even at the end of Feb 2020. I have checked with our finance person, who says I need to submit Annexure K But when I try to download annexure K from PF site, it says no exempted to unexempted provident fund transfer associated with the UAN.
Appreciate if your help to clarify what could be the issue and what should I do to resolve this issue. Also, can you clarify who will be paying the interest amount for the months of Jan to March.
Thank you,
Srinivas

There may be certain issues. Try after some time.

“Amt. Received, Credit IS Subject TO verification” in Passbook transfer entry how long does it takes to disappear. Because of this i guess the transfer is not complete and my experience is showing less than 5 years while withdrawing. If the transfer is complete then i guess the experience should be above 5 years, since this entry alone has the 3 years of my experience, altogether it will go above 5 years of service.
Both the PF accounts are Government PF account not the trust.
Below is the logs of passbook. Kindly help me in resolving the issue.

Hi Basavaraj,

I have got the UAN and PF no.of second employer and activated the UAN online.Now I can access the member passbook and service history of second employer and is fine. But when trying to link the first employer PF no.with this UAN using One employee- One EPF acc option, its giving error as “Online claim req can’t be processed as Present employer has not made payment in your PF acc”. I have contacted my second employer and they are saying that they can’t help me in this issue as the payment was claimed.
Could you please suggest what should be done in this case.Is there any option to get the first employment details, kindly advice. I’m currently working abroad.
Thanks & regards,

I havent done any merging of accounts in UAN portal.
Also, I havent been employed after my two jobs.

DG
Hello Basavaraj,
My work experience is as follows,
Organization A – Jan 2011 to March 2013
Organization B – April 2013 to June 2014
Organization C – July 2014 to June 2015
Freelancing – July 2015 to Jan 2016
Organization D – Feb 2016 till Date (No EPF as this is startup)
All my EPF is dormant since I left Organization C, which means that the last EPF contribution was done in June 2015. For that reason, I want to withdraw everything. The simplest way to do that was online if all A, B and C are attached to my UAN.
Now, in my UAN account, B and C are reflected but A is not reflected since at that time UAN was not applicable. I am not able to add A to my UAN online as it gives me following error,
“Online claim request cannot be processed as :-
Present employer has not made payment in your PF account.”
Please suggest a way out of this situation. I would be really grateful.

Raj
Hello Basavaraj,
As you know from my previous queries, I got my EPF ( 2 account linked and then EPF withdrawn)
Got the amount credited… but not the entire amount.
1) My Passbook showed the withdrawn amount leave a difference amount balance ( though very less 1K change). The difference shows as the Balance in the passbook. Why have they left this balance and not transferred the entire amount ( Minus the TDS, which I can see they have deducted)
2) Is there any king of acknowledgement for the TDS, I did not see any entry or note.
3) Trying to withdraw the EPS now… since I couldnt withdraw both.
I read that we could withdraw if the total service is below 5 years (which applies for me). Here I see the service dates of just my previous employer and not the one before that ( where the amount is higher). I tried applying but was seeing a timeout, will try again. If I withdraw, will it automatically draw both the amounts or is there any other way to check/ensure that.
Thanks!
Raj
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Dear Raj,
1) Raise an issue with EPFO Grievance Cell Online.
2) You will find the same in Form 26AS of your’s.
3) You can withdraw EPS if your service is less than 10 years.

Hello again Basavaraj,
A different question now.
While withdrawing we get the Employee and Employer share of the amount ( Please correct if I am wrong)
What happens to the Pension Contribution addition (which I guess is from the Govt.) Is that lost? or accumulated and given after a certain time like retirement age?
Just curious.
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Dear Raj,
While withdrawing we get the Employee and Employer share of the amount ( Please correct if I am wrong)-YES.

manish bajpai
Hi
Hope you doing good!
I have two PF accounts created by my two previous employers.Two UAN also, now the issue is i want to claim the amount of both the accounts but i am unable to as its showing different error for both.
i already switched both the companies and i joined another one recently.
Can you help me to resolve the issue as my previous employers denies to sort this out from their end.
One of the account shows the error of mismatch of my aadhar card details as my DOB not matched in the account, when i looked the account i got to know that DOB was wrongly filled by previous employer.
How to resolve this?
In second account, issue is to enter the bank details from employers portal which i am unable to do now from my end?
How to sort out this one?
I am not getting any satisfactory answer from the EPFO departement.
Looking for your positive reply sooner.
Thanks
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Dear Manish,
You have to correct DOB using unfiied portal of EPF members. If that not works out, then visit the concerned EPFO and apply for correction. Bank details are mandatory. Hence, you have to submit the details with your employer. However, if you still have questions, then raise an issue with EPFO Grievance Cell Online.

Raj
Hello Basavaraj,
Firstly thanks for being so responsive here and posting this blog. Very helpful. I clarified few doubts by just reading here. I have couple of
I have PF from my last 2 employers. Its been just 3 months since I stopped working. I applied for online transfer, from my previous co. to the current one ( where I worked till Feb’18). I have Form13 downloaded and will sign and hand it to my last employer (within 10 days).
1) What’s next, what will my recent employer have to do. Do they have to submit this form 13 to PF office after attestation? Can they still be able help, in-spite of me not working there?
2) Once done, if I apply for a claim, can we claim the entire amount reflected in the pasbooks. How long does that take?
Thank you for your help!
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Dear Raj,
1)This you have to ask to your employer.
2) YES. It usually takes around 10-15 days.
Raj
Hello again,
Just wanted to update here, that post applying for the transfer online. I intimated my current Employer, and they have accepted the transfer ( Digitally signed ) and sent me an Acknowledgement. I guess I just have to wait and check if the passbooks are clubbed into a single account that I requested for.
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Dear Raj,
YES.
Raj
Hello,
Just sharing an update that the Transfer has been successfully carried out.
1 Jun – Submitted the request online
4 Jun – the application was accepted by employer
12 Jun – the request was accepted by Field officer
18Jun – The transfer was done.
I could stills see both passbooks. The older one had the total amount withdrawn ( for transfer) and another line item for some interest added after that.
In the second ( latest) passbook the total amount was added in. But has a note
TRANSFER IN – SAME OFFICE(OLD Member Id-
:xxxxxxx )-Amt. Received,
Credit IS Subject TO verification
(Not sure if I have to wait till this is cleared or I can go ahead and withdraw the total amount)
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Dear Raj,
You can go ahead and apply for withdrawal.
Ankit Mehta
Dear Basavaraj ,
To give you a brief idea about my situation, I had got 2 PF accounts under same UAN, one from the second-last employer and another from the last employer and I am not working any more. After I left me last employer I submitted PF withdrawal for both the PF accounts separately, since I didn’t know that I need to transfer the amount from older PF account to newer one. The claim for my older PF account got rejected and the claim for newer one got accepted and that amount has been credited to my bank. Then, I initiated PF transfer request from older PF account to newer one but the claim status is been “Accepted by field office” from last 10-12 days but the newer PF account’s passbook is not yet updated. Do you think I shall raise grievance request for that ? Also, if it gets updated soon, do you think I shall submit another withdrawal claim online on the newer PF account for the transferred amount or shall I submit the claim offline ?
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Dear Ankit,
Better to raise an issue with EPFO Grievance Cell.
Sreekanth.N
Hi,
I left one company in 2014 and at that time no UAN concept, Then i joined another company in 2015 and got UAN number i left this company also and currently am running my own company.
I would like to with draw my PF so i approached both the companies they suggested to do it online as i already have UAN. I was trying to first get transfer of my 2014 company amount to the UAN account so that i can withdraw both the comapny amount. I follwed the steps was able to see personal information, Details of present account in which transfer will be effected, But am not able to see option of Details of previous accounts (which are to be transfred).
So am not able to move forward. And both the company are claiming that if we UAN account we have to withdraw PF online only. Kindly suggest.
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Dear Sreekanth,
In my view, better to withdraw separately rather than transferring and then apply for withdrawal.

Swetha
hi,
I have raised PF transfer request in 2016, then it was someother portal(not unified portal). The amount was transferred and i was able to see service period also added in the old portal. Now after EPFO migrated to new portal, am unable to see previous service history.
Then I observed that my previous UAN is still active and has different name on it. I got my previous UAN details updated and now want to link both the UAN’s so that my service history is in tact.
How do i link my UANs now? As amount is already transferred.
Please advice.
Regards,
Swetha
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Swetha-You have to request EPFO through current employer for the merger of both UAN.

Hi all,
I found a solution for this.
After selecting you old pf account/accounts, don’t click the delete button.
Proceed to the generate OTP option.
“Delete” button is useless and misleading for us. I don’t know what is the purpose they have given that.
And in case if you don’t get the table for old account details used Google Chrome. IE has some issues.

HI Basvaraj,
Am having one query in following situation. Please suggest what should be the soution.
one of my friend left xyz organization on Jan,1,2018 & joined ABC organization on the same date Jan 1,2018.
So EXIT Date & Joining dates are same, is it possible to transfer?
So how can we transfer old pf account to new pf account, while trying to transfer through portal under online service tab, it was showing as ” Present employer has not made payment in your PF account”.
When we approached current employer they said PFamount has been credited into PF account..
Please suggest
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Karthik-Usually exist date is prior to joining date. I am not sure how both dates be same. Regarding the error message, raise an issue with EPFO Grievance Cell Online.

Hi, I can 2 passbooks under my UAN. How can I merge these 2 passbooks ? I tried via online portal, but it says “No previous employment details found against this UAN.” But how can see the passbook of previous employer then ? Am I missing something ?
Basavaraj Tonagatti
sreevishnu-I think you are holding two EPF accounts under one UAN. If that is the case, then try to transfer old EPF to current one.
sreevishnu
Thanks for the reply Basavaraj.
If I can see two different member ids under two passbooks, it meants I have two epf accounts under same UAN. Is that correct ? I am not sure about these things thats why.
If so, how can I transfer old pf to new epf ? I tried it online again via “Online Services” => “One member One EPF account”. Filled my UAN with checking Present Employer checkbox and clicked Get Details. It again showing the above error. Please help me.
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Sreevishnu-I feel so that you have two EPF accounts. But better to raise an issue with EPFO Grievance Cell for the better understanding of the problem.

Ok. I’ll try that. Thank you Basavaraj.. 🙂
nitesh gurav
Hi, I am working in XYZ organization which is an exempted establishment and I transferred my EPF and EPS from my last organization ABC into XYZ. Now I am able to see EPF transfer in PF-Statement of XYZ but EPS-service-details are reflecting partially on Unified-Portal under Service-History tab. Actually DOE-EPF & DOE-EPS for ABC are missing on Unified-Portal and so I raised a Grievance with EPFO but they provided a Annexure-K to me stating that EPS details is updated properly from their end and same reflecting in Annexure-K. So I wanted to know that does it mean that EPS-service-details are properly updated at EPFO end whereas missing-detail on Unified-portal is just a portal issue. please check and suggest.
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Nitesh-EPS details are proper and it may be delayed update of Unified portal. You no need to worry.
Raees
Hi,
Thank you for the info. I somehow ended up doing all the above procedures just by following the unified portal. Now i have the portal showing that the claim is accepted by the employer.
As i didn’t read through anything before submitting the online claim, I did not submit the downloaded pdf hard copy signed by me to the current employer. In the otcp website, the status says it is under process. I have not been working for 3 months plus. So i am waiting for the accounts to be merged and then apply for a withdrawal.
Will this affect the merging of my two UAN numbers? especially as i have not submitted a hard copy?
Thanks
Best Regards,
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Raees-Let us wait.
Raees
Thank you for the swift reply.
According to otcp 6th March 2018 is when it became “under process”. So will sending a hard copy now work. How long can this take?
Thanks again
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Raees-If your employer co-operative, then try to send hardcopies now also.
Sreekanth J
Hi, I submitted the online request at last. 🙂

1) I would like to withdraw my old PF account money – Is that possible ? If yes, Can you help me with the procedure ?
2) When I try to open a withdrawal request on the portal, it takes my current PF account/employer details and most of the options in the “withdrawal reason” dropdown are greyed out as I’ve not completed 5 Yrs of employment in the current org. There is no option to select my previous/old PF accounts.

I was facing the same issue for almost 2 weeks. I sent couples of emails to employeefeedback@epfindia.gov.in and tried calling 1800 11 8005 but no response. On one of the site I read that clear all cache, cookies and select “Present -Attestation through”, add UAN and select previous employer account details to transfer. Opt OTP and try again. It didn’t happen couples of times, but in one “golden” try it was through :). I received an message on screen in green color text, that your Transfer request submitted. To have assurance, I followed Track Claim Status from On Line Services Tab, and I saw the transfer request entry.
Hope this helps..

I am trying to withdraw partial PF form my current employer but unable to withdraw it because when I see my service history it shows my current employer name but the DOJ and DOE is from previous employer because of that I can only see form 19 and 10C. I tried to reach out PFhelpdesk form my employer and they suggested me to submit hard copy which is temporary solution. Is there any way to solve this issue ?

Hence, I don’t get OTP too.

Basavaraj- I took my case to the grievance cell and they have suggested to submit the Form 13 to the PF office. What I know is that offline we could submit the Form 13 to my current or previous employer to process the PF transfer. But my current employer says that from last 2-3 months they are not taking it offline. Is it true? If it is. Then can I submit the Form 13 directly at the PF office. Please suggest.

vallinath
Hi
I have few accounts which are not UAN linked and need to transfer ; tried to perform using online transfer but it nis providing error when we are trying to fetch the member id details
“Details of previous account are different than present account. Hence claim request cannot be processed.”
Please providesome info
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Vallinath-I am not sure what details are wrong. Hence, hard for me to comment. Better to use offline method of transfer.
Iyappan
Actual problem is EPF account of previous company and the current company are in different state. (i.e,. Tamil Nadu and Karnataka)
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Iyappan-Let it be. But raise an issue with EPFO Grievance Cell Online.
Raj
Dear Basavaraj – The amount from my old PF account at previous organization has been transferred to new PF account couple of years back itself, as can be seen from my EPFO member passbook. However, the service history in unified portal does not reflect the service period at previous organization. Could you please suggest how to get it updated.
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Raj-Raise the issue with EPFO Grievance Cell Online.
Ram
Hi Basu,
I have two UAN Numbers and I am trying to Transfer PF From Old UAN to UAN and getting error “Details of previous account are different than present account. Hence claim request cannot be processed”
My details was same in both UAN Numbers but still getting error
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Ram-First request EPFO through your employer for the merger of both UAN. Then raise the request for transfer of EPF.
Ram
Hi Thanks,
Is it mandatory to merge UAN? If it’s mandatory we need to request current employer or Previous employer.
I saw your previous posts that once transferred,EPFO will close old UAN
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Ram-You have to request to EPFO through your current employer for the merger.
Subramanian
Hi,
I am facing an issue while requesting for PF transfer.
After selecting Attestation Through as Previous Employer I have provided the Member ID in the right format. While I’m clicking on “Get Details” button, I am see a blank table with just the headers.
What could be the issue?
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Subramanian-I think it is some technical glitch.
Subramanian
Hi Basavaraj,
I’m facing the same issue from the time I reported it. I would have tried more than 10 times in these 3-4 weeks. I have Basic Member details, KYC updated in both UAN, The service details is also updated and everything is approved by my employers and field office. Still the same issue persists. Not sure why it is not pulling the details. My current PF is with Chennai and the old one is that on Delhi South.
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Subramanian-No option but to raise an issue with EPFO Grievance Cell.
Debendra
Please try in chrome or Mozilla browser

Let me do this before I reach the grievance cell. Thank you Debendra
Mahima
Hi,
I worked for my previous employer for 4 months and then joined another organization and provided my UAN number to them at the time of joining. I activated my UAN but did not check it again for few days. I left the second employer after few months and submitted them form for EPF claim. Since the claim was not processed for another 6 months I enquired about it and they asked me to do it online. Now, the portal which only shows my first employer says Present employer has not made payment in your PF account and KYC details are not updated and in my member passbook only previous employer transfers are seen. Is there any way to process the claim now. I am not working now.
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Mahima-I think your employer not deposited the money in EPF. Raise an issue with EPFO using EPFO Grievance Cell Online.
Mahima
Thanks
Jay
Hi Sir,
I joined my first job in 2004 and quit in 2008.
I withdrew my PF amount as well.
Is there anyway I can link that old member id to my UAN in the EPFO portal, so that my service history
is compete and I have a full track of all my PF amounts.
My subsequent two employments are visible and track-able in the EPFO web-site.
Many thanks.
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Jay-When you already withdrew all amount, then why you want to track past EPF?

It is working for google crome and mozila firefox.
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Joydeep-I think it is a technical glitch. Hence, better you be in touch with EPFO.

Ritam Biswas
Hi,
I have left my previous company and currently not working (on a career break). When I tried to withdraw the money to my bank account I am getting the message “Present employer has not made payment in your PF account”. However, I do not have a present employer and my previous employer has already mentioned in the “service details” section the exact and correct date of when I left the organization (in 2016). Still, that organization is still listed as “present employer” in the transfer page.
What is wrong here? Please help.
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Ritam-I think they have not deposited the money with EPFO. Raise the issue with EPFO Grievance Cell Online.
Ritam Biswas
Thanks Basavaraj. I checked with my last company and with EPF passbook and it seems my previous company did deposit all the money. It was some error with the EPF website I guess. The email address they have (customer care) is of no help. Should I lodge a grievance?
Thanks,
Ritam
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Ritam-Better to lodge a complaint.
Nikhil Jakkannavar
In my case the employer had incorrect DOE (Date of Exit), therefore it is showing this error for me (Online claim request cannot be processed as :-
Present employer has not made payment in your PF account.)
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Nikhil-You have to correct that from past employer.
Manoj
Hi,
Now it says, Details of previous account are different than present account, hence transfer request can not be processed.
Thanks.
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Manoj-Knock EPFO through Grievance Cell Online.
Joydeep Sen
I received same error message and then next day it was gone. For me last working day was not updated by the previous employer and that was probably creating that problem.
But now for me the problem is happening at the very last step. The OTP I am receiving is not getting validated and saying “something went wrong and please try again later”
Manoj
Hi,
I keep getting this message ‘No data found against this member id: xxxxx when checking previous employment details’.

Amit Goyal
Hi,
I am getting the same error. I work for Capgemini. I don’t think this has to do with past employer. My current PF account is with Trust. Past account was with EPFO. Now my employer doesn’t know to how to get this updated (which is pathetic). I am planning to visit the PF office to ask them how the employer can get this updated.
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Amit-I said the reason, but you can try your way also and let us know the reason.

Hi Amit,
Are you able to manage to get that information? If yes, please share with us.

I left a job and joined new company. My UAN show two members I’d. Can I withdraw my previous account. And I wish to transfer into new account it show ur current employer does not deposit any fund. How can I transfer my account. And now who will approve my KYC, previous or current employer
Basavaraj Tonagatti

Milind
I am trying PF transfer online but getting errors. I can see both of employers in Service Details. I am using Member Id from previous employer, but on get details I am getting error message as “Details of previous account are different than present account. Hence claim request cannot be processed”.
Option of selecting current employer is disabled. If try using UAN number error message says “No previous employer details found for the UAN”.
Tried sending email to EPFO but received no response. What else I can do to get myself out from this.
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Milind-Please be in touch with EPFO for such technical glitches.
sam
Milind, plese ensure your previous employer updated your date of exit on EPF.
I too faced the same problem, but after following up with them, they updated and I can see the same.
Do check once.
santhosh
I think you need to get Date of Exit (DOE) updated by the previous employer. Send an email to your previous employer and ask them to update DOE. Once they update it, please submit the transfer request
Nipun

After OTP and clicking on Submit button for online Transfer it is giving me an message saying that “Form Parameters Tampered” message and nothing happening after that. Any solution for this?
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Hanumanth- No idea as it is a technical error.
Hanumanth
I resolved this issue after selecting the proper present or previous employer details and finally made online transfer request. Now the big question is I’m not able to see any details of my transfer request in claim status section. Not sure to whom I should contact for the same.
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Hanumanth-Wait for a day or two. If you still unable to view, then raise the issue with EPFO Grievance Cell Online.
Prabhat
Hi Hanumanth,
I am also getting the error “Form Parameters Tampered”. Can you please suggest how to resolved this issue.
Hanumanth
Hi, I just changed the authentication details to previous company from present.
Prabhat
Thanks , That works. After that is there any need to send any physical form to previous or present employer.
Hanumanth
I don’t remember of any file it generated for physical submission. I think as it is a online process, no need of physical submission of the details. I’m not very sure about it.
Hanumanth
After one week of my online transfer claim submission, it generated an printable form of the transfer request under “transfer claim status” section. Hopefully I should take a print copy of the same, sign on it and must submit it to my previous employer.
Still it looks to me like an old fashioned manual process, where is the Advantage of automation?
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Hanumanth-Slowly but surely in right direction. They never claimed 100% automation.
Mohammed Shafi
Even I also got the same problem of FORM PARAMETERS TAMPERED but by changing the “Attestation through” to present employer the problem was resolved. Lets see what will happen next.
Thanks for the conversation Hanumanth, Basavaraj & Prabhat
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Hanumanth-Great to know this.
Vishal
Hi Hanumanth, Can you elaborate where did you change the authentication details?

Also along with this our Pension will also get transferred or we need to follow any other procedure?

RIDDHI PANELIA
HI,
I HAD RAISED TRANSFER CLAIM IN SEPTEMBER 2015. AND GOR PARTIAL AMOUNT TRANSFERRED IN THE NEW PF ACCOUNT.
TILL SEPTEMBER 2016 I WAS ABLE TO DOWNLOAD PASSBOOK OF MY PREVIOUS ACCOUNT AND IT WAS SHOWING THAT OUT OF 38,797 EMPLOYEE SHARE ,11,876 WAS TRANSFERRED TO NEW ACCOUNT AND OUT OF 29,510 EMPLOYER’S SHARE , 9,037 WAS TRANSFERRED DURING OCTOBER 2015.
NOW WHEN I TRY TO DOWNLOAD THE OLD PF NUMBER PASSBOOK , IT SAYS “Contribution not received or status is as UCD Member or Already settled. Kindly contact to concern EPF office”.
WHAT SHOULD I DO TO GET THE REMAINING AMOUNT IN MY CURRENT PF ACCOUNT?
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Riddhi-You can apply now also. If you are working, then better to transfer that old EPF to new.
Balaji R
Hello Basu Sir,
Greeting !!! Have a couple of questions on PF Transfer.
1) I had moved my old PF account balance to new PF Account couple of years ago. What I noticed is Only the PF balance got transferred, but the accumulated Penstion Fund from my old PF accoutn is not carried to my new account.
a) Is this by mistake or is this how the transfer works?
b) If error what is the steps to get it transfered? If its the process then what happened to my existing Pension fund accumulated?
c) Do we have a separate portal to check our pension fund details like Pension number etc or is it directly linked with PF number?
d) Please throw some insights on this pension fund structure of ProvideFund.
2) When could I get back the Pension Fund? Will the maturity summed up with Interest? If interest not provided for Pension amount, then what is the benefit we will get out of it?
Thank you.
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Balaji-1) Your EPS will never get transferred. EPFO just update the service details.
You can check the online portal for balance. what fund structure you want to know? You get back EPS either when you retire at 55 years or before that also (if service is less than 10 years then some % and if more than 10 years then fully).
Balaji R
Thank you Sir. Fund structure in the sense, what I meant was, Where and How can I check the Pension balance that was not transferred. Should I need to perform any actions for now or during withdraw – so that I do not miss the accumulated fund unclaimed.
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Balaji-I already said, EPS will never get transferred. You can check the balance in your passbook or directly contact EPFO for the same.
Chandru
Hi Basavaraj, 1) How long does it takes to Merge PF accounts? I have submitted merge request on 8-Sep-17 but it is still showing “no action taken..”
2) My previous company they did not update my DOE due to some technical errors, but yesterday they reprocessed and said your DOE has been updated, but my previous PF member id still “date of exit” not reflecting ! will this process also takes time?
Please advice
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Chandru-1) No idea as there is no such time limit set.
2) It may take time to update from EPFO end.
Chandru
Thank you Basava Raj.. valuable information..
AVNISH SRIVASTAVA
Is the 1.5 lac investment limit is a combined limit for EPF plus PPF .
For example …
In case i am salaried having an EPF deduction of 1.5 lacs already and open an PPF account in a Bank too . Will i earn applicable PPF interest rates , will the proceeds on withdrawal be tax free for both EPF and PPF accounts ?
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Avinash-EPF and PPF are different. In PPF you can invest up to Rs.1,50,000 (irrespective of your contribution to EPF). However, the limit in Sec.80C for tax saving purpose is set as Rs.1.5 lakh only where PPF and your contribution to EPF is also considered.
Nitesh S Gurav
Hi,
You mentioned above that “Only one transfer request against the previous member ID can be accepted”. So can you please let me know that what does it mean exactly.
For example : Let us assume that I worked earlier in 3 Organizations and out of these three, only 2 Organization EPF is mapped to my current UAN whereas third EPF account is present with a seperate UAN. Then can i submit trasnfer request for all 3 EPF & EPS using current UAN or whether I will be able to transfer EPF & EPS for only one Orgaization account using Online facility. Other two I have fill offline form. Please suggest.
Regards,
Nitesh S. Gurav
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Nitesh-In your case first you have to merge both the UAN.
Nitesh S. Gurav
Hi,
Thanks for early reply.
Can you please let me know that “Can I merge both UAN using One Employee One EPF Portal” or is there any other method for the same.
After merging what is the further process to get all 3 EPF & EPS transferrred to my current organization EPF & EPS.
Regards,
Nitesh S. Gurav
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Nitesh-You can request for merger to EPFO through your employer.
Praveen Dadhich
Hi Basavaraj sIR,
I appreciate your efforts, please help me also
whenever I am trying to request online transfer my previous PF account to current one it gives error that “Details of previous account are different than present account. Hence claim request cannot be processed.”
Please help me
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Praveen-I think the EPF details (personal) may be the mismatch. Check once again.
Praveen Dadhich
Hi Basavaraj Sir,
thanks for response, but my details are matching in EPF and Govt issued IDs. even after EPF system throws error.
Although in order to get rid of error I googled as well and found that Date of leaving is not available in EPF portal from my previous organization.
I am checking with previous org for the same but I don’t know whether it will solve the issue or not.
Best Regards,
Praveen Dadhich
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Praveen-If that not solved, then knock the door of EPFO through EPFO Grievance Cell Online.

Hi Sir,
It looks you are replying for everyone, giving suggestions . So good to see like you person.
Below is my issue.
I have 3 UAN’s for 3 different companies. all are activated. I am trying to raise transfer request but it says below error
“Details of previous account are different than present account. Hence claim request cannot be processed.” What details it will compare?
for current uan, aadhar is updated, but for previous uan, it is not. they said for exit employees, they cannot update the kyc for exit employees.
Please help what i can do, how can i transfer pf to latest UAN.
Thank you so much.
Regards,
divya.
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Divya-The best option is to first merge all UAN under one (current). Request EPFO through an employer for the merger.
divya
Hi sir,
Thank you sir, but current employer , says dont know and asks me to transfer. You are telling to ask me to current employer? Could you please tell me the process of merging , so that i can suggest my current employer.
Thank you so much.
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Divya-I said the same already. If they don’t know, then let them approach EPFO and update it.
ALAN THOMAS
hey Divya,
get form – 13 for transferring P.F accounts. fill it up and get it attested from your current and previous employers (as mentioned in the form) and submit directly to the EPF regional office as per your employer’s registration.

Dear Mr. Basavaraj,
First of all, I like to thank you for solving people’s query and helping them out. I really appreciate your effort.
It will be great if you could guide me with your unbeatable knowledge for below query.
When I try to transfer my PF to another UAN it shows:
” Online claim request cannot be processed as :-
Present employer has not made payment in your PF account. ”
Could you guide me what should I do next?
Thanks in advance.
Warm Regards,
Yatin
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Yatin-I think your present employer not deposited the money to your EPF. Check with your employer.
Yatin
Glad you replied sir.
This was my previous employer with whom I worked only for a month.
What is the solution for this issue? Because I have my previous epf in this UAN and I need to transfer it to current UAN.
Please advice.
Warm Regards,
Yatin
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Yatin-In that case raise the issue with EPFO Grievance Cell.

Vinod Singh
Hi Basu,
I have below query regarding my EPF:
1. My New employer has made a new UAN number for EPF. I just want to confirm that what is the procedure to transfer the HCL UAN EPF to my new UAN Account. How do I initiate the transfer process request. Do I need to contact my previous employer (HCL has EPF TRUST), current employer or EPFO Site ?
2. In my previous employer EPF statement, One component was Pension. Please let me know in case if I transfer the old EPF to new EPF account will my pension amount be also transferred ?
Thanks & Regards,
Vinod Singh
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Vinod-1) Use EPF Unified portal for transfer of old EPF account to current UAN.
2) YES.
Vinod
Thanks for the reply Basu…
Since HCL has “HIL EPF TRUST” for EPF and I am not able to see the EPF amount in passbook of EPF site. Do I still Use EPF Unified portal for transfer of old EPF account to current UAN or need to fill form 13 to current employer. Is form 13 same which transfer online from EPF Unified Portal. or can also filled form 13 to current employer?
I tried to transfer the same through EPF Unified portal but my aadhar card not accepting due to not matching gender information, my old employer has not filled gender and other information and EPF portal trying to match the same with aadhar card and giving error.
Thanks & Regards,
Vinod Singh
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Vinod-“Do I still Use EPF Unified portal for transfer of old EPF account to current UAN?”-YES. If Aadhaar not linked, then you have to submit the form to your employer for transfer.
laxman
Hi Basu,
I have my both my Old and New PF accounts linked under the same UAN Number and i want to transfer the amount from to the new PF account. when i try to do it by providing the UAN number on the field Member ID/UAN i am getting the message as “NO Previous employee details found against this UAN Number ”
can you please help me on how to fix this.and do i need to really go for the transfer claim or is it ok as both my old and new PF accounts are visible under the UAN and what will happen to the money if i dont apply for the transfer
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Laxman-If both EPF accounts are within single UAN and this UAN is KYC complied, then I don’t think it is necessary for you to transfer.
laxman
HI Basu,

AAT
Sir,
My both EPF accounts(previous company-left 13th June)/
(current company-Joined-27th June) are within single UAN and this UAN is KYC complied ‘Yes’.
As m-epf android app shows after entering cell # and UAN.
Current company:
Aadhar/Bank ac/PAN-
Last Contribution –
Balance-
Status – Not Updated
Previous Company
Aadhar/Bank ac/PAN- correct info
Last Contribution –
Balance-
Status – Exempted Trust
Are you sure that PF amount/account is transferred as passbook showing nothing?
Basavaraj Tonagatti
AAT-If both EPF accounts are within single UAN and both KYC complied, then I don’t think it is required to transfer.
Bharat Patel
Dear Sir
Recently I joined a new company. I had a UAN during the job in the old company. I gave it to the new company. Now both the PF accounts are shown in this UAN Number. In that case, I have to transfer my old PF to a new account?
For that I did a tray but got the massage as follows
“Details of previous account are different than present account. Hence claim request cannot be processed.”
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Bharat-In my view not required as both are under single UAN.
shaily
Dear Bharat Sir,
I have joined new company. I have submitted my old UAN no in my new company. I want to transfer my old PF amt. I tried so many times but this message is showing “Present & Previous member ID’s must be different.” So i want to know how can i complete this process.
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Shaily-I think it is a procedural error. Better try once again.
Vikalp
Hello Basavaraj,
Even i am facing the same issue , please help me on this.
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Vikalp-Refer my replies.
Ganesh Palve
Hey because you are selecting wrong Checkbox of either of Previous & present employer. Better you put there as UAN number instead of old or new Member ID.
Mahesh
Hi Basu,
I have 2 UANs (One each from the previous employer and the current employer). I could only access my previous EPFO details using old UAN. However, when I try logging in using new UAN it says “UAN doesn’t exist”? Long back I had requested for fund transfer online to my new PF account but not sure if it’s been done or not. What to do?
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Mahesh-Raise the request to EPFO through your employer for the merger of both UAN.
Mahesh
Hi Basu,
Thanks for the reply. I am now able to login to my NEW UAN (it was not registered earlier). However, I am getting the following alert message when I try to raise transfer request (from OLD to NEW):
Online claim request cannot be processed as :-
Your bank account number is missing.
Bank account IFS code is missing.
Present employer has not made payment in your PF account.
These messages are with respect to my OLD UAN generated by the former employer and I can’t update the KYC through them. What to do next?
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Mahesh-No option but to update the KYC through an employer or visit the regional concerned EPFO.
Mahesh
Hi Basu,
I was able to update my bank details but facing problems while updating AADHAR details. I am getting the following error message:
“Invalid Gender details for AADHAAR authentication.”
Don’t know why it is showing so. Please help.
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Mahesh-This is common facing by many. If you get such error continuously, then better to visit the concerned EPFO and update it manually.
Mahesh
Hi Basu,
Oh, I see…! Thank you for the clarification.

Dear Basavaraj ,
Another helpful article.
w.r.t transfer of pf can you please help us for below mentioned querries :-
a) If we transfer the older PF say ( x Rs ) to current amount say ( y Rs )
Will we get EPF interest on ( x+y Rs ) or only on ( x Rs )
b) Practically how much time does it take to get the PF transferred.
Is there any maximum duration set for this
Thanks
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Ashish-a) Interest will be on X+Y.
b) As of now, they have not specified any such time limit. But in my view, it hardly takes a week of time.
