If you apply for EPF withdrawal and your bank details(name, account number or IFSC code) are not correct then though your EPF withdrawal will be settled money will not be credited in your account. In such a case you need to submit a reauthorization letter to the Regional EPFO office.
I have submitted my PF withdrawal form to delhi office(Nehru place) in july. I have recd no intimation nor the PF amount till date. 2)I have recently changed my Bank account too. I have closed the one which i have given for PF withdrawal. Plz help me resolve both my issues. (Src: citehr)
I resigned from my previous job last year. About 2 months ago, I submitted my PF withdrawal forms at the PF office in Bangalore. Yesterday I got my PF money, but I noticed that its lesser than what I had estimated, After some rough calculations, I found out that the Pension fund money has not been credited. I checked the photocopies of the forms again, and to my horror, I found that the bank account number in the pension form (Form 10C) had missed a digit, and thus invalid. (Src: Alok at Bemoneyaware)

Procedure to withdraw from EPF account
Let's recap the procedure to withdraw from EPF. Quoting from our article Withdrawal or Transfer of Employee Provident Fund Employee can withdraw from EPF by filling Form 19(pdf) which is available with the HR department of his ex-employer or can download it from EPFI webpage of download forms. One can withdraw only after a waiting period of two months after resigning. The rules are that an employee should not be in employment for two months after resigning if he has to withdraw his P.F amount. Form is submitted to the regional provident fund Commissioner office after which the employee receives his amount along with interest within a period of 90 days. While submitting the EPF/EPS withdrawal form along with the bank details one needs to submit a cancelled cheque with the form. EPF office tries to do appropriate checking. Quoting from their circular by EPFO office (pdf format) It is also reiterated that considering large volumes, bank may not be in a position to check member name and account number which increases likelihood of wrong payments. Considering same, it is mandatory that three level check of comparing member name and account number from passbook copy/cancelled cheque should be done meticulously. As per EPF:FAQ webpage there are two modes of payment. Quoting from there:20) What is the mode of payment of Provident Fund and Employees' Deposit Linked Insurance dues?
Provident Fund & Employees' Deposit Linked Insurance dues is paid by money order/ by deposit in payees' bank a/c/ through employer/ by depositing the cheque in payees' name or part of amount in annuity scheme in any nationalised bank. Payment by money order is allowed where the amount is not more than Rs. 2000/-.
Cheque issued is of State Bank Of India. In 2010 as per the circular by EPFO office(pdf format) EPFO is moving towards three modes of payment of EPF refund as shown in picture below (picture is from the circular):
Modes of payment by EPFO
22) In case of returning of cheque what is the procedure to be followed?
Generally the cheques are returned by the bankers when the a/c number is furnished incorrect or a/c has been closed. On receipt of the cheque from the bankers the Provident Fund office will write to the member & employer about the fact & request them to intimate the bank, a/c number & detailed address. In case, the member comes to know about returning of the cheque before this, he can write to the Provident Fund office through his former employer regarding his present address & bank a/c number.
What if the bank account is closed/or bank details don't match due to name mismatch or number of digits after you get the refund cheque? In such case does one need to re submit the withdrawal application again. In such a case one does not need to submit the form again. No one does not need to refill and resubmit the form. One just needs to fill the reauthorization form.PF Reauthorization Form
Sample PF Re authorization Form is shown in image below. It is for Mumbai. We found it on googling from Citehr
Sample reauthroization document
Ref: Re-Credit intimation No. ________ date ________ issued by APFC (Cash) to APFC, AG ______ under copy to the undersigned.
The form is pretty straight forward for the bangalore PF office. I never had to fill the details you have mentioned. (maybe they have different forms?) You have to fill up the PF account number that is already known. And of course the correct name, bank address and account number with the seal and signature of the employer who attests to verify your signature in this form which is mandatory. The official there told me that they will fill up the rest of the columns.
- Correct name,
- Bank address and
- Account number
- The seal and signature of the employer who attests to verify your signature in this form which is mandatory.
- Basics of Employee Provident Fund: EPF, EPS, EDLIS
- Withdrawal or Transfer of Employee Provident Fund
- Salary, Net Salary, Gross Salary, Cost to Company: What is the difference
- Cheque: What is cheque,Parts of cheque,Kinds of cheque,Money order,ECS,EFT, NEFT, RTGS
- Understanding Employee Pension Scheme or EPS
What happens to EPF withdrawal when bank details are incorrect?
What if the bank account is closed/or bank details don’t match due to name mismatch or number of digits or incorrect IFSC code? Once NEFT fails then EPF amount will be credited back to the EPFO bank account within 4-6 days.
In such case does one need to reapply for the EPF withdrawal? No, one does not need to reapply for EPF Withdrawal. If you reapply your claim will get rejected as shown in the message below.
Reapplication of EPF Withdrawal rejected
Reauthorization Form of EPFO
The solution is to submit the reauthorization letter to the Regional EPFO office offline with correct bank details and cancelled cheque leaf. After submitting EPF re-authorization letter, it takes 10-15 days to credit your EPF amount to the correct bank account.
The details required in reauthorization form are as follows:
- Correct name,
- Bank address and
- Account number
- The seal and signature of the employer/Authorized Official who attests to verify your signature.
The text of the form is given below. We have got this from CiteHr here,from post on 18 May 2018. To get details about your Regional EPFO please scroll down and read the section Regional EPFO office.

hi sir my pf balance shows 0 balance but the amount is settled and returned it’s been more than a week still it’s not updated in my pf passbook but I submitted reauthorization form will I get the amount or will it be rejected since pf passbook is not updated?
After how many days it takes for settled and returned amount to reflect in passbook
In re authorisation for there is given an option to fill pf number in that place I have given UAN Number by mistake and did not mention pf account Number anywhere in the form … Will it be a problem? Will my form be processed further?
Depends on the PF officer.
Can you submit the form again?
Hi sir, there is lot of confusion about bank account number, should be 11 digit or more. Some members have posted that there claim rejected because the account no is more than 11 digit and some got rejected due less than 11. If my cheque leaf has 11 digit account number then I should write same number, right? Otherwise they will reject because number does not match with cheque.
If SBI account then add even 0’s before the account number
Dear Sir
I have a PF account associated with your PF office Muzaffarpur, Bihar (UAN-100799386997). This month (Sept 2020), the first week, I applied for PF advance as I was affected by Covid 19 but unfortunately the SBI account Number – 20059260972, which was linked to my PF account was closed by the bank due to KYC issue. I was not aware of this , I came to know about this only on 12-09-2020 , when I checked in to my internet banking . Immediately I sent an email to the Regional PF official email id requesting to reject my request for PF advance. But on 14-09-2020, when I, tracked my claim it showed that the claim is settled.
Sir, I had talked to the bank they said that since the account is closed it will return back to PF account.
Sir, I have send several emails to the PF office but no response.
As on date, my PF passbook is showing as amount withdrawn. Kindly help me Sir.
Exactly the same problem for me too. please let me know if you find the solution
Call me 9765678111

“Amt returned back from Bank to this office till date. Please submit Re-issue form along with cancelled cheque, copy of Pan, Aadhar through the employer for re-credited the same.”
So my concern is,

Is it compulsory to mention only Linked bank account details?
Yes, one should use linked bank account details.
Exactly the same problem. Please let me know if you find the solution.

Hi,
I got a confirmation from PF office through my HR team that the NEFT was returned to PF office because the leading zero’s in my account number was auto-truncated. They have asked me to apply for re-issue form. Can you please let me know if the Re-issue form can be done online?
Because my HR department is not working from office due to COVID and it is not possible for them to provide attestation on physical Reissue form. Can you please suggest an alternative in this case?
Thanks,
Chiranthan

I applied for EPF withdrawal but now I found that my account name in the Bank does not contain middle name whereas in PF account my name contains the middle name also. Will missing of middle name in Bank account reject the PF amount OR the missing of middle does not make any difference.

Please log in to UAN member portal and check KYC

You may not be able to withdraw the PF if the bank account number starts with Zero. We had the account number start with zero, and it was fine, till the PF withdrawl was requested, at which time it was rejected saying “remove the zero from the front of bank account”.

@ Karthik,
There may be a chance for not crediting of your EPF amount , because at present EPFO is making payments through NEFT. If you don’t receive your EPF amount you need to submit EPF re authorization letter with correct bank account details. You can get EPF re authorization letter from your regional EPFO office.
But do this only after confirming that your PF amount not credited to your bank account.
Hi Uday ,
I submitted online pf claims on 17.10.17 but after process I saw my a/c no. Is not correct. There is one digit short in my account no. I changed it immediately. But my claim was settled on 24.10.2017 and they send Payment via NEFT and pf amount was debited but NOT CREDIT in my account… Till date.
Pls help what I do.
Hi my name is nanohar. bro same peoblem here .I don’t know what can I do . my account no. is also one digit short . plZz help me what can I do.
please let me know as well for same case my IFSC code was changed since state banks merging now what to do , claim settled but not credited since last one month .
The Indian Financial System Code (IFSC) is an 11-digit alpha-numeric system that uniquely identifies all bank branches participating in the Reserve Bank of India’s (RBI) fund transfer system. The IFSC Code is mandatory to send or receive money online from one bank account to another.
The SBI authorities say the decision to change the names as well as IFSC Codes was taken due the merger. They clarified it would not cause any problem to customers in case payment comes through old IFSC Code as the system would automatically map it with the new code.
Please raise the EPF grievance as explained in our article How to register EPF complaint at EPF Grievance website online
I submited a claim for advance on 26 october2017. Today i see that tracking status show me neft done in my account. But till now i not received the money in my account. My account details is correct. What shall i do?
Hey karthik m
Did you resolved your issue ?
i have the same problem where my claim is settled but i found my IFSC code is wrong in my account
please guide me how you resolved it ?
Regards
Yogendra
did you get your pf credited? i’m also in the same situation
It is never good to hide details from the employer.
How many months of EPF would you have accumulated?
Can you forgo it?
Have you activated your old UAN?
If you are OK then you can let employer generate new UAN and use it.
You would need to give a different mobile number than earlier UAN.
hi

Sir,
I have applied online withdrawal UAN Aadhar based. Claim is approved very fast. But my bank account is inactive. What will happen?
Hi All, Please don’t panic after getting a message that your amount has been settled and sent to account number 30034513680. This is a SBI account number of government body which is internally used by EPFO to transfer the amount to final account.
When I online submitted the PF transfer claim last year, I got the same message. At that time, I was not aware and did not get any information about this account number. And a very bad thought came to my mind that by mistake EPFO has transferred my amount to some other person’s SBI account. I rushed to EPFO office in South Delhi and confirmed that my money is safe and is going to be transferred to my new PF account. The officer told me that this account number is internally used by EPFO to transfer the amount to final account.
Hi
even for me it says setteled, I given SBI account, how many days will take crediting to my account?
sir, my name is Bhupesh Kumar Das from Jharsuguda, odisha. I have applied for a PF withdrawal and directly submitted the withdrawal form in the PF office at ROURKELA. Also the amount was sent to my given bank account but as my account was inactive, so that amount was returned back. But now I have activated my account and a written request application through employer has been given for resend in PF Office, Rourkela. So, I want to know that after submitting the request application, in how many days the amount will be credited in my account…..?
These days EPFO are very working very fast.
You can expect the refund between 7 to 20 days.
have applied for offline pf withdrawal with all the required documents.I checked the claim status online .and there it was showing
“Your request is rejected.
Reason of rejection: INCOMPLETE BANK DETAILS
Remarks by DA/AO:
CANCELED CHQUE NOT SIGNED BY MEMBER/TAKE FOLLOW UP WITH MEMBER AND ESTT.
My name was not wriiten/printed on the cancelled cheque.is it the reason for rejection? Is it mandatory?
Now again i am appling for pf withdrawl.so plz tell me where to sign on a cancelled cheque.bcz as far as i know signature on this is not required.
Thank u
Yes as your cheque did not have your name it was rejected.
The modern cheques issued by the banks carry all the relevant information viz. your bank account number, bank name,IFSC code etc
A cancelled cheque is basically a cheque on which there are two parallel lines drawn across the cheque diagonally and the word ‘cancelled’ is written right between the parallel lines.
When you issue a cancelled cheque simply means that you hold an account with the bank. Usually when issuing a cancelled cheque, you don’t really have to sign the cheque
A cancelled cheque is actually meant for your bank information. Once you cancel a cheque, it becomes useless and void. It no longer remains valid and a bank will not go through with any transaction using that cheque. Hence, no fraudulent activities are as such possible using that particular cheque (physical usage)
i have raised a request about my pf claim which was less where in i received this message below
Sir, the Form-10C Settled by including the previous transfer-in for Rs.12755/- on 22.06.2017. The same will credit to your bank account in few days.
When you ask for EPF Withdrawal there are 2 transactions
1 for EPS or pension which would roughly be 541*number of months before Oct 2014 and 1250 * Number of months from Nov 2014.
2 for EPF.
So I guess you got for EPS but are due for EPF.
hi I got a message that your pf settlement has been approved and I got the amount in next 2 days through neft………After that I got another message that your pf settlement has been approved through cheque so my question is will I be getting a cheque also???
Check the amount..does it match EPF amount + EPS amount or just EPF/EPS amount.
i.e you will get your PF amount through NEFT, EPFO will send your cheque to your bank account.
Sir my 19 and 10c form was settled and payment was sent on 12.5.2017…and another payment was sent 16.05.2017..but still now i have not received any amount. .Sir what’s the problem plzz tell me..
Sir my 19 and 10c form was settled and payment was sent on 12.5.2017…and another payment was sent 16.05.2017..but still now we have not received any amount. .Sir what’s the problem plzz tell me..
My aadhar is linked to the UAN. Now since the process of withdrawal has been changed (aadhar and non aadhar), they would directly deposit money to the account number mentioned in UAN portel.But that account is closed. Should i go for non aadhar way for withdrawal? also my name is spelled as last name, first name in UAN portel. SShould it be the same way in forms also? in my account its first name, last name only
Yes you should go for Non Aadhar mode.
While filing the withdrawal form mention the bank account you would like to receive the money.
You also need to provide the Cancelled cheque of the bank

Hi.. my employer had uploaded my salary account in UAN portal. Later I resigned job and joined another job where EPF is not there but NPS. Now, when I want to withdraw the amount I have an issue. My cheque don’t have my name. Can I give a different account cheque other than the one in UAN portal?
While filling EPF Withdrawal Form 19 you need to enter bank details.
So Yes you can give another account number and cheque for that.
hi sir,
i had applied pf for withdraw but first time my form was reversed because bank account and pan card name was wrong, and i have applied recently after changing of my bank account name how many days i will get amount please give me suggestion.
Hi Team,
I left my Private job recently where I worked for a period of 1 year 2 months and now I’ll be joining a govt job in a public sector bank in couple of months. Is there a provision to transfer my PF amount from my previous Private firm into Public sector bank where I’ll be working? If yes, please guide me with its procedure.
If no, then only option I have is to withdraw PF amount. But in this case am I eligible to get whole of the Pension amount (8.33% Employer contribution in EPF) OR will I just get the EPF amount since my period of service is less than 10 years?
What is the best option you can suggest?
Plz reply.
Thanks.
Ankit
You can withdraw both EPF and EPS. As you are withdrawing before 5 years your PF would be taxable.
Process to withdraw EPF and EPS is to submit the Withdrawal form 19 for EPF and Form 10C for EPS.
Dear Admin,
My pf is based out of BANDRA i had submitted Form 10 and Form 19 UAN directly to pf office, and they processed a NEFT for my claim within 2 weeks from the the time i sent the form to them, unfortunately the NEFT returned as my bank account was in active, i contacted the PF BANDRA after trying for a week and they advised me to SUBMIT a new 19 and 10 form along with a letter which i have sent them and it has been more than 3 weeks since the form has been received by them and they have not processed. What do you suggest i do to have problem resolved

Hello
I have a quick question… I worked in India for 6 year. In those 6 years, I travelled to UK for one year and then joined the same company back. Hence I have two separate PF accounts.
I have now relocated abroad for good. I wish to withdraw my PF from the two accounts. I do have the list of documents but my problem is I don’t have normal Indian bank accounts now. I just have NRO accounts… Can the amount be transferred to NRO accounts ?
Many thanks
When NRIs were permitted to continue investing in existing PPF accounts in 2003, the permission was on non-repatriable basis, that is, NRIs could not remit proceeds of PPF withdrawal out of the country. Subsequently the RBI announced a Liberalized remittance scheme in 2004 according to which NRIs could remit up to USD 1 million per financial year from the NRO account. Therefore, as of today, you can credit the withdrawal proceeds of your PPF account into the NRO account. And balance in the NRO account can be repatriated abroad up to a limit of USD 1 million per financial year. Of course, you would need to follow certain procedure for such repatriation.
What taxes are applicable on PPF interest?
There are two stages at which there will be a tax implication; one in India and the other in the country of NRIs residence.
In India
In India, PPF is one of the investments available for deduction under section 80C. That is, if you have income in India (from say rental property), then you can reduce your tax payout in India by investing in the PPF. The interest income as well as principle withdrawals are tax free in India.
In the country of residence
You would need to look at the tax rules that apply in the country of your residence. In countries like the US, the interest earned on the PPF will be taxable.
Thanks admin..Can transfer be made from EPF to NRO too? You did mention PPF but what about EPF?
Can we give NRO account cancelled cheque too ?

Hi please answer my question.
When i was employed with my employer i linked my salary account under my UAN. But now at the time of pf withdrawal i want to use another bank account of mine. I mean can i mention a different bank account in pf form? Or should i contact my ex employer to update the bank information first.
Thanks
Its good to get it in salary account. But a different bank account would also work. You need to just submit a cancel cheque of your bank account which you are maintaining in future.
Let us know if you face a problem
No you shouldn’t have the problem

I applied for pf withdrawl with both forms form 10 and 19. Money concern to form 10 was transferred to my account but form 19 money was returned back due to whose mistake not ckeared yet. When did contact pf office they asked for same formality of form again. I asked them when there is no mistake of mine then why should i resubmitt the form for withdrawl. With cooperation of one pf employee old form from their records was resubmitted to them some 18 days back. First form was submitted on 19th feb for which first clearance was on 15th of march of form10. Nobody from sbi is taking responsibility that if form 10 and 19 amount was sent at a time then if form 19 amount is back due to some internet or system problem then who is responsible as finally the final account bearer is sufferer for no mistake.

Hi Somil,
Were you able to get the total amount, Hope you got it

I have faced the same problem. An amount of 25k has been transferred today instead of 125K
with details like NEFT-SBIN******- EMPLOYEE FUND ORGANISATION”. Have you both received the total amount without following any further formality? Do EPF department refund money in partial bricks/Parts??
Exactly same issue here. Could you please tell me what to do now ?
Please mail me at kirann.8708 (gmail)
EPF0 credits money in two parts:
EPS and EPF. Please wait for a day and then file grievance.
Hello, I applied for my pf withdrawal from my previous employer 4 months back and have produced the required details( cancelled cheque leaf)to the office.. However now they come back and say I need to send them scanned passbook of mine!

Can someone help me out as in how do I proceed further? Is it really necessary for me to provide passbook because the reason they need the passbook is to view my account number and ifsc code which is already there in the cheque leaf provided!

Typically EPFO is settling the claim within the month.
Check with your organization where you have submitted the withdrawal form. Maybe they haven’t forwarded the form to EPFO
I want to withdraw my pf money so for that my employer asking me to last 6 months bank statement and cancel check of salary account. So my question are
1. Do really need both or only cancel check is enough
2. Can i get my money in another account instead of salary account
Are you withdrawing money because you have left the job or withdrawing for some specific purpose while in job.
In any case Just attach a cancel cheque of your bank account which you are maintaining in future.

HI .. can we withdrawl the pf amount without the help of the employer after resinging ?
my account number which was linked to the pf account is now closed( i closed due to min balance issue ..) . can i use other account of mine to withdrwl procedure of pf amount ?
pls help…
Yes to both your questions.
1. If a situation arises, you can bypass your employer and get your EPF without employer signature.
You can directly submit the withdrawal form to the regional PF office. But Before accepting your direct application EPFO want to make sure that the right person is applying for PF. Therefore You have to attest your application form by any of these authorities.
Manager of a bank,By any gazetted officer. Member of the Central Board of Trustees./ committee/ Regional Committee (Employees’ Provident Fund Organization).
Magistrate/ Post/ Sub Post Master/ President of Village Panchayat/ Notary Public
2. You can give any account number during withdrawal.
Hi,
I have recently submitted my epf form and the status got changed to “approved and payment is under process” on EPF website. However, my question is that I have submitted cancelled cheque of SBI bank (siliguri, West bengal) and my EPF office is from Gurgaon. How long will it take for them to deposit the amount in my account? and will there be a problem if the cheque is from another state?
No there is no problem.Now with NEFT transfer things have become easy. You should get it within a month. Do let us know when you get the money!
Hi,
I have worked for a company for 4 years 3 months i.e. from July-2010 To Sept-2014 there my PF was deducting by my employer, then I have worked for other company for 8 months from Dec-2014 to Aug-2015 there I was not deducting my PF. Now I don’t have job from Sep-2015. If now I want withdraw from PF whether it is taxable & TDS on same will be deducted or not. Pl reply.
Thanks in advance.

I dont have cheque book. Then how to apply epf claim.any alternative?
EPF requires blank/cancelled cheque to verify the bank account number.
Do you have a xerox or copy of old cheque of your bank account. You can submit that.
Else you can ask your bank to issue you a cheque book
Hi,
I had submitted for PF closure and withdrawal via Form 19 and 10C
I got message from EPFO that my PF settlement claim is approved for payment through Cheque.
I was expecting that the payment would be directly credited electronically to my S.B.account.
Please let me know will i get cheque to my home address or bank or it will be electronically credited directly to my SB ac.
Also i got approval messages for form 10c and another for PF settlement. so will there be two separate settlements?
kindly respond.
The regional PF office takes about one month to process your application and EPFO now deposits PF amount directly to the employee’s account.
Can you update us as to whether you finally got a cheque or EPF was credited directly into bank account.
Yes there are two settlements one for EPF and one for EPS
Sure..I would update once i get the amount credited or cheque.
By the way the process in chennai epfo looks quick. within 1 week of submission of forms from employer, they have approved. Now, lets see how much time they take to credit…
please tell me how your pf amount got credited
by cheque or electronically
I got message from EPFO that my PF settlement claim is approved for payment through Cheque so please tell me how the amount will be credited will i get cheque to my home address or bank or it will be electronically credited directly to my SB ac.
Hi..
My PF amount got credited today in my account directly(chennai EPFO). Within 2 days after approval message they have credited the amount. Really fast
Hi..
My PF amount got credited today in my account directly(chennai EPFO). Within 2 days after approval message they have credited the amount. So in 4 days time (after the form submitted to EPFO from my previous employer) all the settlement completed.
Congratulations and thanks for getting back. We appreciate it.
If you have withdrawn before 5 years of service then PF withdrawal is taxable.
Thanks…Yeah since it was more than 5 years no tax was cut.
The issue that I am facing now is that the bank account which I have given in the EPF withdrawal form was inactive and they have temporarily blocked the same right now.
1. fill the RE-Authorization form.
2. copy of the active bank pass book both sides.
3. pan card copy.
All the 3 mentioned above should be atteseted by ex-employer and you send it to
your PF office(where your PF is processed).
Great Article. Thanks for the info. Does anyone know where I can find a blank “Form 19” to fill out?
Link to the form is given in the article above (Form19.pdf)

Hi
Your site is very very informative and helpful and I got most of my queries answered regarding the PF.
I have one doubt to be clarified:
I have joined a new company now and have submitted the Form 13 for the transfer of the old PF account to new one. So do I need to do anything more for the EPS amount to be transferred as well or will Form 13 take care of it also?? If not can I withdraw only the EPS amount?
Good question Afsheeen.
For transfer of EPF and EPS account only Form 13 is sufficient.
EPS amount can be withdrawn but there are some conditions such as :
To recap the 12% contribution from your side goes to EPF, but the 12% contribution which your employer makes, out of that 8.33% actually goes in EPS (subject to maximum of Rs 541) and the rest goes into EPF.
The EPS part (8.33% out of 12% contribution from your employer or Rs 541 what ever is minimum) does not get any interest.
When you withdraw you always get 100% of your EPF part, but for EPS there is separate rule . There is something called Table ‘D’ , under which its mentioned how much you get at the time of exit from your job, there is a slab for each completed year and you get n times of your last drawn salary (depending on the completed year of service) subject to maximum to Rs 6,500 per month. So if your salary in this case was Rs 30,000 per month, still you will be given only 6,500 * 6.40 = Rs 41,600.
Note that the table D is upto 9 yrs only, because if 10 yrs are crossed, then you are liable for pension.
EPS for pension has some caveats to this.
One is liable for pension only if one has completed the age of 58.
One is liable for pension only if he has completed 10 yrs of service (in case of more than one companies, the EPF should have been transferred, not withdrawn)
The maximum Pension per month is subject to maximum of Rs 3,250 per month.
Lifelong pension is available to the member and upon his death members of the family are entitled for the pension.

Thanks a lot for the reply. You are a star..:)
Can I know your name please??
Regards
Afsheen
Thanks for compliment Afsheen.
Just the name 🙁 It’s no secret, you can find it in About section of blog.
My name is Kirti S Desai a middle aged woman struggling with kids, husband , work (software engineer) in Bangalore.
Not being financially literate I have questions about money, answers about which I try to find through this blog.
hello sir, your website is really very informative. but I have a query. I used to work with Delhi based MNC’s Mumbai office, and my PF account is maintained in Delhi. I have resigned in Sept 2011, after just 1 year and 2 months of service and submitting my PF withdrawal claim now. Could you advise :
1. What are the forms I need to fill up after downloading from EPF website ?
2. The company bank account has closed down, and I have a my new personal Savings account in State Bank of India. While filling up the forms suggested by you, what do I put in Bank account details, as company has submitted my old account number to EPF office ?
Will be very grateful if you will advise, as I will be doing the procedures and going to Delhi to submit the forms to my company and PF office on your advice. I will also keep you posted on the developments, as it will help other readers
Thanks and Best Regards
Abhijit why do you want to withdraw, you can transfer your EPF to new job. If you have claim before 5 years of service the EPF withdrawal is taxed.
Our article Withdrawal or Transfer of Employee Provident Fund covers the withdrawal /transfer in detail.
Employee can withdraw from EPF by filling Form 19, . For pension, Form 10D
You can give your new bank account.
You do not need to travel to Delhi, you can courier the form and co-ordinate with your earlier office. The Form submission needs to be through your old office.
We appreciate your opting to keep us posted, looking forward to hearing from you.
Hello Sir, thanks for your reply.I read it thoroughly, and here is my reply, point wise :
1. I have to withdraw the amount, as I am no longer in active service, I work from home and will continue doing it. Looks like I will have to pay the tax, cannot help that as I do not have any tax saving instruments
2. I understand from your reply that I have to fill up Form No 19 only, no other Forms need to be filled, as I do not want pension also.
3. Regarding the matter of travelling to Delhi, I need to inform that there are may high – profile companies who take an inordinately long time to stamp the forms and submit the same to PF office, as the companies know that this is a no – gain work for them, they know that anyway I have left their service, and they do not wish to complete the formalities quickly as that might involve expenditure and time, on their behalf. I know of HR bosses castigating HR staff for doing unproductive work, as getting an ex – worker his dues is the last priority on their list. I can tell you of instances where sheer negligence and mistake on their part have resulted in ex-staff not getting their dues in time. Inspite of having the courier companies stamped and signed receipt, companies later claim they have mis-placed the documents, you will wait for one month in good faith and then find out they do not have the document in the first place. Sadly, this is India, these days the HR department staff of many top MNCs are of so low quality and lazy, that they are not fit to type an Appointment Letter properly. This ” Chalta Hai” attitude is the bane of India, they know they can say sorry later on. I am saying this from 25 years of working experience in top companies, in India as well as in the Gulf. Wherever there is an Indian involved, you can expect problems, be it in Govt or private service. I would wish to inform all readers to keep an eagle – eye on their documents, make photocopies of all documents sent, keep calling them, checking on the progress, and be ready for all sorts of issues. Your money is not in your bank till you actually see it in your statement, please note.
4. As for the bank account matter, as per your reply I can straightaway write my new SBI account number on Form 19, irrespective of my earlier account number that has been submitted, and which is ow non-operational.
5. In my earlier MNC in Gurgaon, I was handed over the Form in my hand to be submitted to the PF office, which I did and took a receipt. Trust me, the money came to my account after 4 months, and let me tell you, they were all computerized in Delhi and Gurgaon, I even got a computerized receipt. But I could rest easy, as I knew that my money will surely come some day.
I am sorry for a wrong reply, but I believe in the policy, once bitten, twice shy.
as mentioned earlier, will keep the forum posted on all developments
Thanks and Best Regards
Abhijit
Sorry, I meant long reply, not wrong reply in the end. Sorry once again
It’s okay As Shahrukh said in DDLJ “Aksar bade bade deshoon mein aisi choti moti baatein ho jati hain”
Logical answers and we appreciate you sharing with us. Best of Luck for getting your PF money.
Just a small clarification – you would have to pay because you left service before 5 years so if you have claimed any tax under section 80C due to EPF contribution in your earlier years that would be rolled back.
P.S: This blog is run by women.
How do I get my PF total balance include contribution of my company, recently I submit PF withdrawal form & when I got my PF amount
Sneha Quoting from our article Basics of Employee Provident Fund: EPF, EPS, EDLIS
PF office sends an annual statement through the employer which gives details about the PF accumulations. The statement contains details like, Opening balance, amount contributed during the year, withdrawal during the year, interest earned and the closing balance in the PF account.
You can also check the EPF Account balance online through http://www.epfindia.com/MembBal.html
