    Thanks Denzil Correa and Basavaraj Tonagatti for your advise,

    Yesterday, I have asked company to update my DOL on EPF portal,
    SERVICE DETAILS
    MEMBER ID DOJ EPF DOJ EPS DOE EPF DOE EPS Reason Of Leaving
    MHBANXXXXXX 04-JAN-2016 04-JAN-2016 23-SEP-2020 23-SEP-2020 CESSATION (SHORT SERVICE) – Any other reason.

    Now I am able to see 3 options for PF withdrawals. Form -19 (only PF withdrawal), form-10C (only PF pension withdrawal, Form-31 (PF Advance withdrawal), means exit date is mandatory for terminated employees and has to avail only form – 19 complete PF withdrawals.

    Not sure the reason for including advance PF amount for non-receipt of wages > 2 months in list,
    obviously, if the company exit, then employee would have applied for some other reason. even if the employee is terminated or not getting salary for 2 months, it doesn’t mean that company must be closed. Parent company exist and he is not getting salary > 2 months, then portal must allowed for advance money, till he get’s the new job. else he can’t apply for advance. It has to be complete PF withdrawals. (not talking about age > 50 or for pension schemes). So, EPF portal advance reasons must be updated.

    Thanks, I am going to applying for form -19 to withdraw complete amount and close my existing home loan.

    Dear Ajay

    You can update the exit date when u enter the system.There you are prompted with the last contribution of the employer.In that month only should be the last date which you enter twice The second to confirm.
    You are not allowed to use form 31 only form 19.

    Hi Sir,
    I have been working for 4.9 years in a MNC company and due to pandemic reasons, company started reducing work force. So, I was removed from services on Sep 23rd, 2020. Overall PF account is maintained for 12 years with EPF and PF passbook got updated saying, PF amount not received for past two months and 29 lakhs balance amount is showing from year 2008 onwards. Currently, I am not working and almost completed 3 months without any salary. So planning to take advance through form – 31, but online claim form – 31 was rejected with reason “NOT ELIGIBLE U/P 68H(1) AS ESTABLISHMENT IS LIVE”. means. I can’t take advance by using form – 31, incase current company is still exist or live. I have selected purpose of requesting advance as “non – receipt of wages > 2 months. (no other option available for me to select other than form – 31 advance. ) Means, form – 19 or 10c is not enabled for me, because my company not yet updated exit date on EPF portal. So is this exit date is mandatory for taking advance through form -31 or using form – 19 . If the company not updated exit date, then how will I get advance, even form – 19 can’t be used for final settlement, unless no exit date or I am decided not to work for future. (I don’t have any other reasons like illness, purchase house, .etc ? Could you please help me, how to get advance. (of-course, if I get new job, then I will raise online claim for money transfer from old company to new company member id).

    Dear Sir,

    Myself James Joseph wish to withdraw my EPF & EPS for my previous company. But while going through the UAN portal we can’t make the both withdrawals together. I think need to do separately. In this case first I need to do EPF withdrawal & then again shall I need to place another claim for EPS also. Please help me.

    Currently I have around 1,80,000 in EPF & 85,000 in EPS. So can I withdraw the full amount. Help me.

    I have joined organization on 26 Oct 1991 but I left the organization and withdrawal my PF but didn’t withdrawal my FPS. Then I rejoin the same organization in 06 Apr 1998 now my DOJ EPF is 06 Apr 1998 and DOJ FPS 26 Oct 1991 reflecting in PF portal.
    I have applied for advanced PF withdrawal but same is rejected due to joining date not tallied as per KYC. Please suggest what I should do now.

      Date of joining of fps will always be 26 Oct 1991 .What you should look is what is date of joining of Eps which should be 6th Apr 1998.
      Why rejected is hard to say and dates i feel should not be an issue.

      Exit date of Eps comes automatically on entering epf exit date automatically the system will put the same date.
      If you are over 58 when exiting epf then eps will be put by the system after calculating 58 years from date of birth.

      There can be only 2 reasons.
      There is no contribution to EPS or you have worked over 10 years then you are not eligible to claim EPS .

    Hello Sir,

    How can we see history of our employment prior to UAN? On EPF portal, I can see my service record starting 2015 only (when UAN was issued to me). Though I have done PF xfer from previous employer to current employer successfully, I am unable to see EPS related data for my service history (when UAN doesn’t used to exist) and hence unable to withdraw EPS contributed before UAN.

      Dear Ankit Jain

      Whatever your service was before Uan started you cannot see.If transfer is done successfully from one employer to the next your service details automatically get transferred to the new employer and the moment your total service is more than 9 years 6 months you cannot take out Eps and will have to claim reduced pension at 50 or normal pension at 58. From your side when you make the claim you should be aware of your total years of service .

    Left the job on May 20, 2020 and I have around 12 years PF Contribution.Now I would like to withdraw the amount but the interest is not credited yet in my PF account.

    Could I get the interest of Last year along with this withdrawal or I have to wait for interest to be credited in my account,In such cases could I get the interest for such period. last year interest was credited on October 2019.

    Can Apply for EPS withdrawal also

      Dear Rajesh
      You will get last year’s interest if this years interest is not credited to your company at the time of your claim.
      Regarding Eps since you have worked more than 10 years you will get deferred pension at 50 or normal pension at 58.

    Hi Sir, I have not received interest component for 2 years in a row now.. I have written to the grievance cell a few times, but they only say that interest for previous years is yet to be settled. I’m now in a situation that I need to fully withdraw my PF balance. If I do so now will they credit my interest component before processing my withdrawal or will I lose that amount? Its a very substantial amount and I’ worried. Please advice

    Hello Basavaraj,

    My claim is rejected for following reason
    ´Your Claim [ Claim Id – GNGGN190750106876] has been rejected due to : 1) DOJ FOR PREVIOUS TRANSFER IN PF AND EPS DIFFERS, CLARIFY 2) CERTIFICATE ENCLOSED IS IMPROPER´.
    Since my previous service history is not added in the UAN login (however amount from the previous PF is already transferred), I put DOJ as what is shown in UAN login (the date when I joined my current organization). Can you please tell me if I need to give DOJ as actual joining date of EPF (which is 16/08/2011 but not shown in UAN portal) or date of joining 15.10.2012 (shown in UAN where previous history is missing). OR do I need to file Grivence to get something corrected. Please advice.

    Dear Sir, In my PF account pass book, employee contribution & employer contribution are showing settled,but EPS/pension contribution is still showing some amount figure.During my PF withdrawal time I applied only for PF withdraw (from 19).Now, when i am going to withdraw my EPS amount on line(from 10 C), the following message is coming “TOTAL SERVICE IS GREATER THAN OR EQUAL TO 9.5 YEAR OR SERVICE LENGTH IS LESS THAN 6 MONTHS.Why this message is coming,while filling online withdrawal EPS? Can you please explain/elaborate/clarify this?

    I had left my previous company few years back, I had withdrawn the EPS amount then, but I didnt get the EPS amount because I was unaware. Now in my current company I have a new pf account and have generated UAN for the current account. Now I want to withdraw my previous EPS amount, how shall I do that ?

    As per my current employer I’m not the member of pension scheme EPS because I have mistakenly mentioned it in form 9 during joining.

    Now they are saying to check with previous organization regarding EPS withdrawal or EPS certificate. Current employer can transfer only PF not EPS. Employment history is 6 year 6 months

    I’ve transferred PF from A to B then B to C as well(And I hope EPS has been transferred with Service history).Final PF settlement has been done through Company C. Now at the time I’ve filled form 10c that time my basic salary was 25000. The approx. EPS contribution during these 5 yrs 10 months is more than 50000. However finally I’ve got 15300 as EPS final settlement. is there any discrepancy in calculation or I got the correct amount? If any discrepancy in calculation pls guide me how i can recover the rest amount. Pls clarify my doubt. Thnx in advance.

    Hi Basavaraj,

    Morning!

    I am totally confused with EPS and EPF, though I have got some understanding on both and their criteria, I have a few doubts and hopefully you will answer them.

    I have worked for 6.5 years in my previous organisation and I withdrew my PF before quitting by claiming it online on UAN portal.

    Its been 6 months that I have joined a new organisation and I got to know about EPS, until which I had no clue that EPS existed also. My questions are:

    1. Since EPF and EPO contributions are separate, will the claims to be made towards each are separate? As informed above, I have withdrawn PF while I was in previous org so does this mean I have got only the PF share and not the EPS amount?

    2. In the above case ( point 1) how can I withdraw my EPS? and how do I check my EPS balance ?

    3. In case I withdraw my EPS by not opting for scheme certificate, what happens after withdrawal? will my service gets reset and starts from 1st year since i lose the existing years of service due to EPS withdrawal? will the EPS still gets contributed by employer post withdrawal?

    Note: I started working since july 2010

      Dear Tejaswini,
      1) Yes, they are separate and you have to claim them separately.
      2) You have to apply for EPS separately. Regarding the balance, you can check it in the passbook.
      3) If you withdraw EPS, your new EPS (which is attached with new EPF) will show the service history freshly without adding the past history of your old EPS.

        Basavaraj,

        Thanks a mill for the reply, May I please ask my last few questions……

        1. In umang app, for my previous PF account it is showing the details as below
        employee share : 6380
        employer share: 51116
        pension contribution : 72080

        since i had withdrawn PF already, under withdrawal section it is showing :

        claim against PARA 68B(1) (C)
        employee share : 166000
        employer share : 34000

        Q1: so can you please clarify what is my EPS balance as per details above? does it mean I have a total balance of 129576 ( sum of all 3 above ) or is it just 72080 ?

        Q2: I tried to claim EPS using online services tab on UAN portal but it is showing me the current PF account in the drop down and I cannot select or enter the old PF account number ( as my balance is in old PF account ). Also, I do not find an option for Form 10 c to claim and i assume that is because my current PF account is selected by default.

        Q3: How will i be able to withdraw my EPS and remaining PF balance from old account if the portal is not giving me an option to select old account.

        I started working from July 2010 so am I eligible to withdraw EPS?

    Hi sir,

    I had applied for PF transfer from previous employer to present employer through online and as well submitted form 13, pf office has rejected my pf transfer request.

    They say that, after 2014 who has a new pf account are not EPS member, hence they are not eligible for person scheme.

    Where at previous employer I joined in year 2015 and this my only one and new PF a/c .They have showed the contribution under both employer and Pension scheme as their practice.

    Now PF Office are instucting that they have to reverse the contribution made for pension scheme to employer and which has to be shown as equal to the contribution made by employee.

    They say it is possible for employer to reverse this and employer will have to send a letter to PF office to do the changes after reversing as said.

    After then PF office will do the necessary changes and do the pf transfer.

    1, Is it true, my previous employer would have not contributed to pension scheme?

    2, My present employer also contributed to pension scheme, do I needs to inform my present employer to reverse the contribution made under pension scheme?

    3. How I take the way forward, please advise.

    I have been running around with PF Office since last October 2018, I request you to please please help me in this and do the needful.

    But still my pension amount is unavailable for withdrawal. I tried submitting Form-10C. But after I select it . It shows
    ” Date of EXIT EPS OR DATE OF JOINING EPS IS NOT AVAILABLE” .

    Date of joining is 24-1016 and date of leaving is
    23-08-2018 which is visible on my EPFO portal along with my other data like mob number, UAN ,name, PAN. ETC.

    PLEASE LET ME KNOW WHAT CAN BE done to withdraw my whole pension amount.
    Thank you

      Tushar no worries, all you need is to contact your last employer and tell them to update your DOJ & DOE date for EPS accordingly in the PF account, that’s it. I just contacted my previous employer today and request them to update DOE for my EPF & EPS which they did immediately and i was able to apply for withdrawal right away.

    Hello Basavaraj,

    I have completed 10 years service and also few months back I have withdrawn my EPF online. I have completed 10 years from 03 Employers. As I gone through your detailed EPS article I understands now I need to apply for Scheme Certificate from Employer by Submitting Form 10 C. My questions are below

    1. Can I submit request online to get Scheme Certificate or only it can be done through Manually submitting updated Form 10 C to PF Office

    2. I have 03 former employers and I am not working for any employer at present. Do I need to get scheme certificate for all 03 employers ?

    3. I see Rs 1,02,239 accumulated in my EPS account from 03 employers. Will I get this amount back after I reach to age 50 ? or I will get pension based on last employer EPS deducted amount. My last employer has contributed Rs 1,250 to EPS account which I am seeing in EPF Passbook though I am not sure

    4. After I get scheme certificate what is the next step? Do I need to wait till 50 years ? or I can submit Scheme certificates to PF office once I get all

    Kindly let me know

    Thanks
    Dinkar

      Dear Dinkar,
      1) You can do it either online or offline.
      2) NO.
      3) You will get pension but not lump sum amount.
      4) Yes, you have to wait till retirement age.

        I don’t see any option to get Scheme Certificate on EPFO site. Is pension withdrawal and Scheme Certificate both are same? I heard like as I have completed service more than 9.5 years I cannot withdraw my pension and need to apply only for Scheme Certificate. Kindly share me link to get Scheme Certificate

    Hello Basu,

    I have epf with exempted trust. The EPS is with EPFO. My employer gives me a statement for EPF. At the bottom of the statement, there is a single note mentioning that Rs. XXXX will be credited to EPS scheme help with regional EPF commissioner office. There is not dedicated column or even summary of EPS amount credited so far.

    1) Is there any way I can really cross-check that the EPS is actually credited per month. Can I approach the EPFO (using UAN number ) for the statement of EPS OR the trust is supposed to give me some proof of
    2) Also – Do people having EPF with trust get an EPS account number? (Just like EPF number)

    Hi Basvaraj,
    I have recently quit my job and joined another company. I want to withdraw EPF and EPS from my previous organisation. I have quit my job after 4 years of service and my total experience is 7 years
    From the UAN portal I am only getting option of withdrawal of EPF. I am not getting option of withdrawal of EPS.
    Should I submit the request for the withdrawal of total amount EPF+EPS in one request only i.e. EPF withdrawal? If that is not the case where I can claim my EPS amount from my previous organisation?

        When I quit my 2nd company, I received the
        total PF amount . But I don’t know about the EPS. I can’t see how much is my EPS balance online. This is why when I wrote an email to the 1st company, they asked me to submit form 10.

            To withdraw earlier EPS I should send form 10 to my 1st company ?

I have UAN, AADHAR, PAN & bank account details, mobile, email, etc registered and verified. Kindly advise

    2] I could not see interest details for the year 2017-18 in the pass book, it shows interest credited till 31.3.2017 only

      Dear Alok,
      1) It may be due to your employer not entered exit date. Please check the same with your employer.
      2) They will update.

    Hi Sir,

    I quit my job on May 31st 2018.
    My pf account is UAN activated, linked with aadhaar, bank account and pan. Also, I have transferred my previous pf accounts to my current account. I have total 8 years service.
    I am not employed anymore. My questions are

    1. Do I have to wait for 60 days after my last working day to withdraw pf amount?
    2. Can I withdraw 100% amount or only employee contribution is allowed to withdraw? If so when can I get the employer contribution?
    3. Is there any tax deduction on online withdrawal?
    4. How long it takes to get money for online withdrawal?

    Thank you
    Ambily

      Dear Ambily,

      1) Yes.
      2) You can withdraw both employer and employee contribution.
      3) No as your service is more than 5 years the amount you receive is tax-free.
      4) Around 10-15 days.

    Hi Basavaraj,

    This is a very helpful blog.
    I read many replies posted by you to various questions and they are very helpful.

    But I didn’t find exact answer to my question.
    My previous company closed our working unit on Oct-2015.
    I’ve UAN with verified AADHAR and updated SBI saving bank a/c nunber.
    When unit is closed, I’ve completed 4.3 years (DOJ: Aug-2011)
    Now, I’m working with other company and this company has his own PF trust.
    UAN portal shows both PF a/c numbers (but can not access present a/c).
    I didn’t transferred my PF balance of old a/c and received interested on it for 2 years (still I didn’t received interest for the last financial year).

    And my question is,
    Can I withdraw all amount (EPF+EPS) of my old a/c?
    I don’t want to transfer it to this EPF trust a/c.

    Dear Sir,

    In my UAN I have one pf account in which all my kyc and bank details are updated and approved by my employer ( which i left 1.5 yrs back).
    For the last 1.5 yr , no pf amount deposited in that account.
    Now recently I joined another employer , they opened new pf account and linked with my UAN.
    But If I click on claim to withdraw the pf now , I got a message that :: Please update your latest Bank account no. and valid IFSC details through your employer/Unified Portal. Even though my previous employer have already approved my all kyc and bank account details on portal.

    Please suggest what to do and why it is like this ??

    1. If I withdraw my EPS alone, is it taxable?
    2. My total EPF is about 40k (Employer + employee), So this is taxable or not? becoz, the flowchart saying above 30K without PAN is taxable and when I tried to claim, above 50K it is table. What is correct?
    Can I proceed my claim without PAN verification?

    My employee share – 31850, employer share – 9738 & pension contribution – 21678. I raised a ticket for some queries in the grievance cell and they said Rs. 24101 is available in your account. Since it is less than 30000 TDS is not applicable. I have some confusions.
    1. Why are they saying its only some 24k available in my account?
    2. Can I withdraw my both PF and pension at a time or separate claim process required?
    3. Am I eligible for TDS deduction or not?
    4. If I withdraw both PF & pension amount, totally how much I will get in my account?

    I want to claim the EPF amount as well the EPS amount(pension amount). My service is only for 2 years. I am going abroad and I am not going to continue employment here.

    I submitted the online form 19 for claiming the EPF amount.
    Now to claim the EPS amount whether I should submit the option as “ONLY PENSION WITHDRAWL(Form 10C)”

    It means whether I should submit it twice (form 19 and form 10 C online seperately)

    Also, my employer advised me to send a two copies of form 15G and a pan card to PF office after online submission.
    Whether I should download form 15G fill in and send it?

    Please help me in claiming full amount.

    I have applied online pf claim and submitted both 19 and 10 c form within gap of 5 minutes between 19 and 10 c.
    Is it okay?

    Is there any mistake I have done?
    MY KYC IS UPDATED.
    and how much time It will take to
    Get the whole amount?

    I have received my partial PF amount however I am not getting the option to claim for form. 19 or form 10c . I left my organization on 17th Feb 2018 and I am currently not employed. Why am I not getting the option to claim for my eps amount ? I have worked for more than 2 years there. Please let me know why is it happening ?

    Hi,

    Currently I am working in Company C, Previous company A’s PF account is transferred to Company B. In the Member passbook of Company B is showing only EPF amount of Company A, EPS amount is not transferred. Now i want to close the Company B’s PF account permanently and want to withdraw full EPF and EPS amount.

    I worked in Company A for 7 Months and Company B for 11 Months.

    Q1. what will happen to Company A’s EPS amount if I close the Company B’s PF account?

    Q2. Is it possible to Withdraw Both EPF and EPS also from the Previous Company B?

    Kindly help with the Confusion….!!

    Hi Basavraj Sir,

    I have a query regarding my PF and Pension amount withdrawal.

    Sir, I have applied for my PF settlement on 6th April, 2018 and on 11th I have applied for my pension amount withdrawal online. On 13th April I received an email stating that my PF settlement amount as per form 19 has been sent to my bank account and will be credit within 3-4 working days but I have not received any notification about my pension amount.

    Sir, I have worked for just 7 month will I be getting my pension amount as well ?

              Hello,

              As mentioned earlier, I had placed the PF withdrawal request online during the first week of April, which is currently showing under process status.

              To my surprise, today when I checked the EPFO portal, many of the details available earlier under my profile have disappeared. Details like ‘exiting service’ etc are now blank.

              Also under the claim, only advance claim option is available; where as, earlier 3 withdrawal options (only PF, only PS, and combined) where available.

              Is this change in my portal temperory as the claim is under process. I am quite surprised to see this status.

              Also, last midnight I got SMS from the EPFO (same message 21 times). The content of the message was: “A auto transfer claim for transferring your EPF accumulations from XXXX. P LTD to XXXX. P LTD has been considered against UAN XXX. If this transfer does not belong to you, it can be stoped claim within 20 days of date of linking(13-APR-2018) by login to https://unifiedportal-mem.epfindia.gov.in/memberinterface or contact your employer /concerned EPFO field office.”

    I am facing issues with my EPF withdrawal, after more than six months of exit. During this time, I have worked as an independent contractor, and may take salaried employment at some time during the future.

    I would be happy if some things could be made clear to me, by an expert, point-wise.

    1. I had incorrect date of birth registered with my EPF account. I filed the changes through the epfo portal. The employer sat on it for 45, days, but agreed to send a joint declaration fixed it. (I don’t need clarity on this, just added this for context)

    2. I understand that Aadhaar number, bank account, and Pan number are essential for online transfer. As of now, the employer tells me the following
    i) The employer has lost credentials to the epfo portal (irresponsible, but plausible)
    ii) The employer is saying that they are submitting form 9, and form 2 (or both)

    Can you tell me what these forms are for, and do they, in any way, help in approval/updation on the KYC? Or is the employer being clueless, or worse, being deceptive?

    3. Suppose, by magic, these KYC are completed. (Aadhaar, Bank A/c with IFSC, PAN), is there any employer involvement/approval for EPF withdrawal? (I mean for the online process). In the past, I have done an online transfer, and employer approval was needed, but it was granted promptly.

    4. In case I do an online transfer to a future new employer, will the past employer approval be needed? (Online)

    5. I had also filed a grievance, with the relevant authority. The reply was as follows:

    It is informed that after processing your grievance,the following action(s) has been taken:
    Necessary directions have been issued to the establishment to update KYC and the same will be approved shortly. Member has joined xx-yy-zzzz and left on aa-bb-cccc member may apply in claim form 19 and 10c for withdrawl

    Can you tell me what is the role of form 19, and form 10c? Do either, or both need the employer’s signature?

    Hi Sir,

    I worked for 7 years in Company A and then moved to Company B. I transferred my PF from A to B. Both of this PF were mapped to UAN A. Now when I moved to Company C after 1.5 years, they have created a new UAN B (I do not know why) . I transferred to my pf from UAN A to UAN B. Now from UAN A , I raised EPS withdrawal claim. Will it be accepted or rejected? If accepted then will I get both of the EPS amount of Company A and Company B?
    Thanks in advance.

          Sourav-Yes, this what I wanted from you to know. EPS will never get transferred. Whenever you transfer EPF, your EPS records will be updated by EPFO. But before that you have to request EPFO through your current employer for the merger of both UAN.

    I do have a question;
    As on the Portal it is showing the options for Online Claim as “Only PF Withdrawal (Form-19)” & “Only Pension Withdrawal (Form 10-C)”, Am I eligible for both of them & withdraw one at a time, or I can only Apply for ” Only PF Withdrawal (Form-19)” i.e Employer & Employee Share.?

          Shiva-1) You can check online using your employer-provided facility (if they trust). Otherwise, request your employer to share the EPS balance details.
          2) You can withdraw after 6 months (when you leave the job). But if you are withdrawing before 10 years, then you will get part of it but not fully as per Table D. If you completed 10 years, then you will get scheme certificate which is eligible for pension when you retire from your employment.
          3) I already explained in 2nd answer.

On selecting the option, it only asks me to fill the address on the form and then on the same form there is a small box to check for OTP generation. Should it not show me ‘Generate Claim PDF’ option to generate ‘Claim form’ first for my review before I allow for OTP generation or will i get the claim form generation option after OTP is authenticated?

    Also I completed more than 10 years of service and am under 50 years of age. Is it right that i can not withdraw EPS online for that reason? If yes, then what is the process to get ‘Scheme certificate’ ? Is it possible to do it online?

    Hello, I applied for PF full Withdrawal using Form 19 through online and it is under process.

    Will I get Pension amount also withdrawn from that form itself ‘OR’ I should again submit Form 10C through online separately?

        I got the PF transfer done from the 1st organisation to the 2nd organisation I worked for. But I dont know whether the EPS also got transferred because it didn’t reflect in the passbook. The 1st organisation maintained 3 trusts.

        When I left the 2nd organisation few days back, I submitted the composite form for PF withdrawal.

        So now I am wondering what to do about the EPS in 3 trusts from my 1st organisation. Can you please let me know what can be done ?

    Hi,
    I have 4.3 years of experience and i claimed for EPF partial withdraw today online.
    My PAN is appproved by my employer but online verification status is “Unverified”. My Adhaar is linked to my UAN and bank account details and mobile number are provided correctly.
    After submitting the claim, i found in the claim pdf that the PAN is reflecting as “Not Available”. As the amount i claimed is more than 50k, i heard that there would be TDS deductions of 34% if pan is not provided.
    But my doubt is, My PAN status. is it considered as provided because it is approved by my employer in the portal and also linked to my Adhaar, or considered as not provided as it is unverified?
    Also, if there would be more TDS, i would like to cancel my claim. Please suggest how.

      Gayatri-This is all happening due to your employer NON-verification of PAN. Inform the same to your employer. Also, avoiding TDS does not mean avoiding tax. Due to your service period, the income you receive from EPF is still taxable income for you and you have to pay tax on that.

      Lemme share my experience here.

      My KYC (Aadhar, PAN Bank A/C) was verified 3 years ago by my previous employer. A couple of weeks ago, UAN shockingly displayed that my PAN failed. PAN Unverified!!

      Then i realised that the name on my PAN card ended with my initials while UAN and Aadhar just had my name spelt as ‘Arun Kumar’.

      When i tried uploading my PAN i encountered an error message on UAN that stated (Name against UAN does not match with the NAME in Income Tax Department).

      Worried about the 34% TDS deduction while withdrawing PF if PAN not verified, I thought of correcting the name on my PAN online. It took around 12 days to get a copy of my corrected PAN from NSDL to my residential address.

      After which, I was able to upload /re-submit my PAN on UAN for my employer’s to digitally verify the same. Right now, its all fixed.

          TDS stands for ‘Tax Deducted at Source’. PF withdrawals above 50,000 is taxable. TDS will be deducted at the rate of 10% unless PAN is submitted or verified on UAN.
          However, in case Form 15G or 15H is submitted along with pan by the member, then TDS is not deducted. These forms are to declare that their income would not be taxable after receiving payment of their PF accumulations.

          Note : If PAN is not updated then there will be a deduction of 34.6% for PF withdrawals above 50,000.

              Basavaraj, nowhere in my earlier comments have i mentioned about avoiding tax. Lets not get mixed-up between avoiding vs. saving. My intention here was to highlight the savings of 10% tax against 34.6% when PAN is provided during PF withdrawals.

              If an individual withdraws PF above 50,000 before the completion of 5 continuous years of service then he/she is entitled for TDS.
              If PAN is verified on UAN then they are entitled for a 10% TDS. If PAN not provided then the TDS is deducted at 34.6%.

              Not all PAN verified members can further save the 10% TDS as there are certain criterias that make them eligible. To get detailed explanation on who can submit Form 15G/H and when, please visit the following link:

The claim status is “settled” . I don’t think they really know what that word means.This has been going on since March 22nd, 2018. Clueless.

As per the pre-requiste, all the pf balance must be transferred to the last PF account, since I don’t have employer in India, I even can’t initiate a transfer as the employer must sign in this case. So can you please suggest any alternate way to withdraw the EPF and EPS ?

    Hi,
    I was on maternity leave and had to resign due to personal reasons. My employer has credited 2 months extra salary to my account, when the whole maternity policy was being changed by the govt. Now my employer says i’m not eligible for new policy. they added salary by mistake and i’ll have to return it to complete exit procedure. I want to withdraw my pf online but my name doesnt match with aadhar and my employer is not cooperating to change it or help me withdraw my pf until i pay the due amount. I’ve been struggling for almost 3 months now and i dont know what to do.
    I want to know if we require the company relieving letter to withdraw pf directly from epfo office.
    I wanted to avoid visiting epfo as i’ve heard it takes a lot of time and too many visits. It’d be difficult for me to manage with a baby and sick mother at home. but looks like i have no choice.
    Not sure if you can advice something helpful but i just thought of asking.

    Hi,

    I am planning to withdraw PF for paying for my new house. I have paid the downpayment but I want to prepay my housing loan. My PF is linked to my AADHAR and I have submitted an online statement to my housing society.

    To withdraw, do I need to submit the composite form? And should I give my personal bank account number in the composite form (which is already linked to my PF account)?

    Also, I have not been working for more than 2 years due to ill health but I have only 4 years of continuous service. Will I be taxed for this withdrawal? If yes, is there a provision to not get taxed?

        (b) If the downpayment is already made through a bank loan, can it be used to prepay the bank loan (not EMI but prepayment)
        (c) The composite form doesn’t have any provision to write some other bank account number there (e.g., bank account number of the loan)

      Sndesh-Your EPS will follow your EPF. But it never get transferred. EPFO will just update your service records. Hence, you no need to worry.

    Hi Basu,
    I left my job 6 months ago after working for 2 years and 9 months and am currently persuing studies.
    I am in need of some money and was thinking of withdrawing my EPS.
    Can you please help to clear my following doubts:
    1) Can EPS be withdrawn without withdrawing EPF?
    2) Am I right in thinking that EPS withdrawal is better for me than EPF as i do not need the whole amount, EPF will still earn me interest for 3 years and will also be taxed since I have not completed 5 years of service?
    3) Does EPS withdrawal alone attract any taxation?

    I would be really greatful if you can help to clear my doubts please.

    Thanks in advance 🙂

    Hi Basu,

    I requested for PF Final Settlement online and I got the amount credited to my account. While filing the claim I selected option ‘Only PF withdrawal (Form 19)’. My question is – when I request for PF final settlement – does this amount includes the pension amount. Or I have to file another claim online using option ‘Only Pension withdrawal (Form 10C)’. Please suggest what needs to be done – As per my understanding – Pension is credited in a separate transaction. Hence, I have not received Pension amount. I was in a job for 8 years and now a freelancer.

    Hi Basu,

    I quit my job last year and want to withdraw my PF balance as i am not in a job anymore.
    My UAN has 2 PF accounts linked to it and when i try to claim withdrawal online, i get an error message saying i need to transfer the PF balance from first employer to the second one before withdrawal. My question is do i really need to do that. As my Aadhaar data is seeded can i not withdraw using the composite form and UAN number and submit it to the EPFO.

    Thanks,

    Hi,

    I have been trying to claim the PF amount (partial withdrawal) on the portal. However, keep getting an error message ‘Multiple member-id’s found linked to your UAN. Kindly transfer all to current member-id before proceeding’. The transfer from previous organisation is reflecting in the passbook with a note saying ‘subject to verification’. Have frequently followed up with the EPFO, but in vain.

    Could you please suggest how the above issue can be resolved in a timely manner. It has already been more than a month and the wait is still on.

    My name is Swathi, I have complete 10 years of service in my current organization. I am planning to go for
    PF partial withdrawal for purchasing a house. I have below doubts. Can you pls check and reply .

    1) When I try to apply for the loan online, in the purpose of Loan filed i could see only the option “CONSTRUCTION OF HOUSE”. So for “purchasing a house” also I have to select the option “CONSTRUCTION OF HOUSE”?

    2) Once I received the PF loan for “purchasing a house”, do I need to send any documents to the EPFO
    after the property registration. If so, is there any dead line (time period) to submit the registration documents to
    EPFO?

    Hello Mr. Basavraj,
    I am a 66 year old individual who took VRS in 2003. I have submitted 10D form for withdrawal of EPS after I completed 58 years age. But the EPFO has not yet given me the EPS. They have been giving some of the other reasons and totally I have submitted the form many times. I have been trying since last 8 years. Also they do not respond to any of my letters until I raise a grievance.
    Now finally they are saying that my EPS of some of my years was not transferred to the right office. Finally I got that to done. Now after I have sent everything they are still not responding. I do not know how to raise a complaint and get my EPS. Please advice now I can withdraw my EPS without these many problems.

    Could you please elaborate the reason of rejection.
    I have done it through online process and why do the certificates need to be enclosed?

    What should i do next, should i approach EPF branch using a composite Aadhaar form for withdrawal along wiht form 15G? I assumed if the service is below 5 years and if PAN is submitted the TDS would be 10%.

    Thanks,
    Vivek

    Dear Sir,

    I have tried to submit online claim but the error stated that more than one ID’s linked to UAN. All accounts to be merged in single account before proceeding.
    I have left one Pvt. Company 4 months back where I have worked approx. 3.5 years and joined new company from that time. I have given my previous UAN number in the new company.
    I want to withdraw my previous company PF amount as I need money for higher study.
    Please help to guide the process.

    Much appreciate your valuable feedback. Thank you!!

        Thank you sir for the support.

        I have some query for offline mode of withdrawal. please help: –

        1. My UAN is active and linked to my Aadhar. All other information are correctly updated in EPFO records. Which form I can use to withdraw pf offline….. UAN based new form or the old form.

        2. Does it attract TDS? Since my PAN is updated in EPFO and the pf contribution is for 3.5 years and val. is more than 2lac.

        Looking forward for your support.

    Hello Basu

    I quit my job last year and have not yet claimed my PF.. I am currently working for my own startup and don’t have any PF running.

    So i have everything that is mandatory on UAN member portal to do the withdrawal..
    After filling the online form, validate it by Aadhaar OTP and then when i click on ‘Validate OTP and Submit’ I get a message
    “Claim Is Not Submitted on portal,Please try again later”

    Do you know what could be the reason..

      As posted below, I had faced the same issue too. I tried clearing cache/cookies, switching to a different browser/machine but in vain. Today, on a hunch, I redistributed my address info on the 2 address fields ‘equally’ (earlier, first text box had much of the details while second box only had my village name) and that nailed it for me.

      Hope, this could be of some help to you/others too.

                Just answer and advice for my point. if u send me link there it will be general way.
                Is it correct or not. while submitting online request form 31 it is shoeing maximum 5,00,000 ?

    Its nice article. Thanks for posting this.

    I served with my company more than 10 years and resigned my job March 2016. I no longer working in India. I didn’t withdraw my EPF. I received my EPF statments from my previous employer for the year 2016-2017. In that TDS 10% is being deducted for the interest amount . Could you explain why TDS if I am not withdrawing my amount?

    Total amount in EPF : 10 lakhs
    Interest credited approx for this year : 86,000 RS
    10 * TDS decuted : 8600 RS

    Thanks in advance for your response.

        Hi Basu,

        I checked with my employer and received the below response. I am still not clear.. Will you please explain?

        ”
        The interest on your PF balance as on 31st March 2017 will attract tax as per below income tax rule. ”

        “Under Section 10 (12) of the Income Tax Act, the ‘accumulated balance’ due and becoming payable to an employee participating in a recognized provident fund during the tenure of his service, do not form part of total income.
        The expression ‘accumulated balance’ is defined under Section 2 (f) of the Fourth Schedule – Part A, to mean the balance to the credit of an employee on the date he ceases to be an employee of the employer maintaining the fund. Thus the accumulated balance, is the sum of the amount of provident fund credited to the account of the employee during the tenure of the employment of a member.
        The interest credited to the accumulated balance of an employee who has resigned or retired from his services, does not fall within the exceptions provided in Section 10 (12) or Section 8 of Part A of the Fourth Schedule, and is therefore to be treated as income liable to be taxed. The Company / Trust is therefore under the obligation to deduct tax at source from such interest under Section 194A of the Income Tax Act. ”

        Thanks in advance for your time.

    I have given application for PF claim online on June 19 th and when I check the status it is showing the claim is submitted on the portal. After online submission there is a printable form showing the summary of withdrawal request. Do I need to send this form to PF office or everything will be done just online?

    I had resigned on Aug 16,2016. The interest will be credited only up to the last transaction in the passbook or will it be credited(FY17) until I had withdrawn the amount?

    Hi,
    I left my job last year Dec 2016 and applied for EPF withdrawal.
    At the time of balance withdrawal I had 7 years of experience with different employers.
    I always transferred my EPF balance from old employer RPFC to new employer RPFC.
    Also I ad submitted Form15G at the time of filing the request with employer.
    But now I see the RPFC has deposited the amount y deducting 10% from the amount I see in EPF updated passbook.

    Please help what should I do now?

        3rd employer in Dec 2013
        4th employer in Mar 2015
        left 4th employer in Sept 2016

        My EPF account also changed for every switch and I made sure to transfer the EPF balance from previous employer to current employer.
        But in case of 4th employer, they created a new UAN account for me instead of referring the UAN from 3rd employer. Now the EPF passbook shows the PF credit for 4th employer and balance transfer from 3rd employer.

        I spoke to RPFC today and they said to submit documents to prove my balance transfers, I dont know what doc can prove/where to retrieve the same.

    1. Whether I can transfer the FPS?

    The error “AADHAAR is not authenticated from UIDAI. Please authenticate your AADHAAR by visiting nearest EPFO office.” while applying for Online PF withdrawal might be due to the name mismatch. Usually employers link Aadhar to UAN with name as shown in PAN card, there are cases where in the name sequence in PAN card is different than the one in Aadhar card (PAN card can have “Middle Name First Name Surname” while Aadhar has “First Name Middle Name Surname”). Try getting the KYC corrected from your employer.

    Online service activated for my account but as usual facing typical govt issue. It gives me error “Aadhar number not authenticate by UIDAI. Please visit nearest EPFO office.” Then I tried for again updating Aadhar number then it show error “temporary facing Aadhar server issue” Dont know why these babu logs create problem in every good initiative.

      Sandesh-It is mainly due to UDAI server. You have to try for some more times.

        Its the same issue with me and other colleagues here!!.

        Well, have tried it 10-30 times and still the same error. WHY? can’t they think and make something simple..is it coz giving out our money is a pain in their ***?

        Could you please let us know any other way apart from physical visit to the EPFO office?

    Hello Basu,
    What if there is difference between EPF date of joining and EPS Date of joining?

    No option to withdraw when login to EPFO. My KYC is already done and Aadhaar is also linked.

        Respected Sir,
        I have worked in Accenture for 3.5 yrs and then switched to another company bt worked there only for 3 months. I have already claimed the epf amount from the latest employer pf account without merging the old pf account. After this I merged the old pf account with the latest employer. Now total pf amount credited in new pf account . UAN is same for both the account. Now I am trying to withdraw the pf amount as well as Eps amount , but it get rejected with the error message-EPS erroneously remitted.
        Please suggest me the solution .I will be thankful to you.
        Thanks

          Dear Alok,
          Hard to predict. Better you raise an issue with EPFO Grievance Cell Online.
