On 10th February 2016, the Ministry of Labour and Employment, Government of India, changed norms on withdrawal of provident fund (PF). Now, you would NOT be able to withdraw your full EPF corpus in any circumstance before the retirement! Lets look at changes in the rules for EPF announced and see how it affects the employees.
Government on 19 Apr 2016 has withdrawn the controversial provident fund (PF) withdrawal norms that had restricted complete withdrawal from PF account before the retirement age of 58 years, bowing to pressure from trade unions. This is the second major stepback by the government on provident fund in less than two months and comes close on the heels of it withdrawing the budget announcement of imposing tax on withdrawal from Employee Provident Fund (EPF) account. EPF Circular for this.
Government on 18 Apr 2016 has deferred the rule till Jul 31 2016. Facing protests in several parts of the country, the government kept in abeyance for three more months the proposed move to bar withdrawal of employers’ contribution to the provident fund corpus until an employee attains the age of 58. The proposal to amend the scheme to allow all accumulations on different grounds like purchase of house, serious illness, marriage and professional education of children, has been sent for vetting by the Law Ministry.
EPFO on 1 Apr 2016 has deferred till April 30 implementation of new norms that restrict 100 per cent withdrawal of provident fund by members after unemployment of more than two months, among others. All these new provisions related to PF withdrawal would be applicable from May 1, 2016.
EPFO on 29-Mar-2016 decided to provide interest on inoperative accounts from April 1, a move which will benefit over nine crore such account holders having total deposits of over Rs. 32,000 crore. Interest on deposits in inoperative accounts will be credited from April 1. Inoperative accounts are accounts wherein the contribution has not been received for 36 months. Retirement fund body EPFO had stopped payment of interest to such accounts from April 1, 2011
Overview of EPF
Employee Provident Fund (EPF) is one of the main platforms of savings in India for nearly all people working in Private sector Organizations. A provident fund is created with a purpose of providing financial security and stability to elderly people. Generally one contributes in these funds when one starts as employee, the contributions are made on a regular basis (monthly in most cases). It’s purpose is to help employees save a fraction of their salary every month, to be used in an event that the employee is temporarily or no longer fit to work or at retirement. The amount is deposited at the Employee Provident Fund Organization (EPFO). The investments made by a number of people / employees are pooled together and invested by a trust. EPF covers following three schemes. Our article Basics of Employee Provident Fund: EPF, EPS, EDLIS covers it in detail.
- Employees’ Provident Fund Scheme, (EPS)1952
- Employees’ Pension Scheme, 1995 (replacing the Employees’ Family Pension Scheme, 1971)(EPS). Our article Understanding Employee Pension Scheme or EPS covers it in detail.
- Employees’ Deposit Linked Insurance Scheme,(EDILS) 1976. Our article EDLI, Employee Deposit Linked Insurance Scheme covers it in detail.
Table below gives the rates of contribution of EPF, EPS, EDLI, Admin charges in India on the Basic Salary.
| Scheme Name | Employee contribution | Employer contribution |
| Employee provident fund | 12% | 3.67% |
| Employees’ Pension scheme | 0 | 8.33% |
| Employees Deposit linked insurance | 0 | 0.5%(capped at a maximum of Rs 15,000) |
| EPF Administrative charges | 0 | 0.85% (From Jan 2015) |
| PF Admin account | 1.1% | |
| EDLIS Administrative charges | 0 | 0.01% |
For example if your basic pay is Rs 20000, the breakup of EPF contribution is as follows. There are 3 ways as mentioned in our article,Basics of Employee Provident Fund: EPF, EPS, EDLIS, but most common one is given below.
- Employees Share (12%) in EPF i.e. 12% of 20000 = Rs 2,400
- Employer’s Share in EPS: Minimum of ( 8.33% of 20000 or Rs 1250) = Rs 1250
- Employer’s Share in EPF: 2400-Minimum of ( 8.33% of 20000 or Rs 1250) = Rs 1250=1150
- Employer’s Share in EDLIS (0.5%) i.e. 0.5% of 20000 = INR 100
- Employer’s Administration Charges (.85%) i.e. 1.11% of 20000 = Rs 170.
Other features of EPF are
- Compound interest as declared by Central Govt. is paid on the amount standing to the credit of an employee as on 1st April every year.
- Interest is earned on the Contribution made by Employee and Employer in EPF.
- Employer contribution to EPS does not earn interest.
- The employer contribution is exempt from tax and employee’s contribution is taxable but eligible for deduction under section 80C of Income tax Act.
- You can check your EPF balance through various ways. Our article How to get information about EPF balance : Annual Statement, SMS, E-Passbook explains the various methods of getting EPF balance in detail.
Changes in the EPF Withdrawal Rules from Feb 2016
The Employees Provident Fund has become the retirement saving in the true sense. the labour ministry has issued a gazette notification about the changes in EPF act, on 10-Feb-2016
- Retirement age has been increased from the current 55 years to 58 years.
- You can withdraw 90% of EPF balance once you reach the age of 57 years.
You cannot withdraw Employer contribution to EPF before 58 years.- EPF membership does not end with leaving the job.
Government is planning to start online facility for EPF withdrawal in Aug 2016.
Lets go through these changes in detail.
Retirement age increased from the current 55 years to 58 years.
Earlier the retirement age for EPF was 55 years. From 10 Feb 2016 it is increased to 58 years. In today’s scenario retirement age is 58 years across all organisation so this change is keeping in step with times.
You can withdraw 90% of EPF balance once you reach the age of 57 years.
Now, the subscribers will not be able to claim withdrawal of their provident fund after attaining age of 54 years. They would have to wait till attaining the age 57 years. Earlier the retirement age of EPF was 55 years. So one was allowed to withdraw 90% of his EPF balance one year prior to retirement i.e at the age of 54 years. Due to increase in age of retirement, it now changed to 57 years. But the change is that now under this facility, the subscriber would be able to withdraw 100% of his contribution and interest earned on it unlike 90% of the total accumulations earlier
Now you Cannot withdraw Employer part of EPF before 58 years This has been withdrawn
From 10 Feb 2016 You cannot withdraw the EPF contribution by the employer before the retirement.The employer’s portion can be withdrawn after attaining the retirement age (58 years). Remember the withdrawals from the EPF within five years of joining are still taxable. The problem that the EPF would face is whether it would pay interest on Employer share which one is not allowed to withdraw. The inoperative account rule of EPF says that an EPF account would not earn interest if there is no contribution for 3 years. Now onwards, there would be several EPF account without contribution as people would not be able to withdraw their full EPF corpus. Will such account would not give any interest after 3 years? The rule says
“A member who ceases to be in employment and continues to not be employed with a covered establishment for at least two months, may be permitted to withdraw only his own share of contribution, including interest earned thereon. The requirement of ‘two months’ period referred above shall not apply in case of female members resigning from the service for the purpose of getting married or on account of pregnancy/ childbirth.”
Image below shows the sample UAN passbook with no contribution from Apr 2015. So if this person withdraws EPF , before 1 Apr 2016(interest will get added on 1st Apr 2016. After 1st Apr interest for 2016 would also be added.) he would be able to withdraw only 95,056 and not Employer share of Rs 81,593.
EPF withdrawal of Employer share not allowed
EPF membership does not end with leaving the job
From 10 Feb 2016 You cannot withdraw the EPF contribution by the employer before the retirement.The employer’s portion can be withdrawn after attaining the retirement age (58 years). Since you can’t withdraw the 100% of the PF balance, your epf account is not closed.
Online Withdrawal of EPF may start from August 2016
Retirement fund body EPFO may launch an online facility to withdraw provident fund by August 2016. This move will reduce paperwork and provide hassle-free service to its subscribers. As per senior official al EPFO “We have already digitised our records and processes using Oracle operating system. EPFO will soon buy blade servers for setting up three Central Data Centres at Gurgaon, Dwarka (Delhi) and Secunderabad. All the three centres will be connected to 123 offices of the Employees’ Provident Fund Organisation (EPFO),” he said. “The process of procuring servers would be completed by May while the testing would start in June to gauge the response of the system in place. After intensive testing and trials in June and July, we are planning to launch the online PF withdrawal facility in August this year,” the official said.
Once this is operational, subscribers can apply online for PF withdrawal, which will be transferred directly to their bank accounts. At present, subscribers who wish to settle their accounts with the EPFO are required to apply manually. For settling online claims, the subscribers would have to activate their Universal (portable PF) Account Numbers which are seeded with KYC details including bank accounts, Aadhaar number and permanent account number. Ref PF May Be Withdrawn Online From August, Says EPFO Official
Government’s Notice regarding Changes in EPF Withdrawal from 10 Feb 2016
The Notification no. G.S.R. 158(E), dated February 10, 2016 [F.No. S-35012/5/2015-SS-II] which changes the rules for EPF withdrawal are shown in image below. All EPF circulars are at http://www.epfindia.com/site_en/circulars.php?id=sm7_officeUse. Interested readers can read PricewaterhouseCoopers article on it.(pdf) or click here.
Government notification for change in EPF withdrawal rules from Feb 2016
Summary
The new rules have made the EPF withdrawal difficult. Purpose of EPF is your retirement . Many withdrew their EPF before retirement unable to gain from the power of compounding and defeating the purpose of EPF. These new rules FORCE you to accumulate atleast your Employer’s contributions till you attain the retirement age. Note that the withdrawals from the EPF within five years of joining are still taxable.
The problem is the EPF would face is inoperative account rule of EPF says that an EPF account would not earn interest if there is no contribution for 3 years. Now onwards, there would be several EPF account without contribution as people would not be able to withdraw their full EPF corpus. Will such account earn any interest after 3 years?

Hi,
Greetings for the day !
I have left one organization, where I was working as confirmed full time employee, during October 2016. That organization has a private PF trust. Due to certain reasons my Provident Fund transfer request was not sent to previous employer by my new employer. However, old organization has agreed to transfer PF balance in January 2018, however they are crediting only 90 days interest from October 2016 although the entire PF balance was with them for the entire tenor. Please advise if there is any government direction on this and can I claim the interest for entire period from October 2016 to January 2018 from my previous organization. Please guide how to get the interest amount.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Regards

Is there any age restriction to claim EDLI if a person dies while in duty at the age of 59 years and 2 months?
sir,
i got job co-operative sector previously worked as a private employee can i transfer my pf amount to current employer,having UAN also
I urge to Govt of India to increase pension amount of the employees working in private sectors who have completed 58 years as the pension amount which is based on formula fixed by the Govt long back is not sufficient to survive in old age and may be implemented ethically considering the price dialation/inflation. The system of withdrawal of funds should also be liberal in near future. Please look into the matter and request to the Present Govt of India
yeh niyam 31.7.2016 ko samapt ho r ha he. yeh sarkar ka kahna hai,parantu yeh niyam hamesha ke liye khatm ho ja na chaiye,yeh tab ho ga jesa ki pichli bar sab logon ne saath diya tha.

I feel, actually the govt has been thinking as a well wisher for the employees,by not allowing them to withdraw a part of the EPF until retirement ,as the main purpose of EPF is to help employees after their retirement.But of course we are unable to wait till then and try our best to acquire the whole lot.
BUT if we think with coolness yes the govt’s proposal has a purpose!

Only the middle class is sucked dry from all sides. These are the people who contribute by paying tax and still the government want to squeeze them further. Please note once middle class revolts it would shake up the whole system. You are also losing on your vote bank in a big way. Let us know what the Govt. benefits by holding back the PF amount.
If you want to improve on your GDP, think of taxing the agriculture income and track all the black money transaction, not by killing the duck which lays the golden eggs…..Very disturbing and bad policies where a person cant live in peace.

Its not fair. its the only back up or support for a person who has lost his job and willing to withdraw his money. suppose today a person aged 45 having 10 lacs in PF has lost his job wants to start his own business will have to wait for next 13 years for employers contribution…….
a person also may face any sudden medical emergency.
Its totally a mess done by this govt…..
above decision should be reversed immediately.
Suppose an employee at 40yrs lost his job and withdrew employee contribution (assuming the above rule in force) and waits till he is 58yrs and by that time some other useless government comes to power and moves the age limit to 75yrs as all the funds were used to give loans to people like Vijay Malya and there are no funds to refund at the age of 58 years for this employee. This would still be more worse and all such tricks are to loot the middle class people. There is no guarantee of these TUGLAK kind of rulers as when they will change what. The person who actually got this idea to impose restriction on PF withdrawal should be sentenced to the maximum punishment as he/she created chaos and confusion and causing lot of mental torture in the minds of people.
Lost faith in this government, jitna jaldi ho sake BJP ko government se hatana hai.
We are in supporting Your decision since all the people in India are not with permanent jobs and it is not sure that next month we will be getting salary and once we lost our job it is very hard to get the next job till we get next job at least with our PF amount we can start a new business and settle in life if this Government do’s this injustice by not allowing our PF with draw completely all the Indian employees will join together to abolish this rule.

This is a bad and wrong decision by this govt. This is a cheating and taking our money to govt. and govt is not clear about the benefit and refunds at the time of retirement age. Why people are not against this so vigourous?? we need to fight against..the robbing of our money.
we need to neglect this govt and fully defeat and fight strongly against this decision..

Bloody shit policy!!! Really unjustice with middle class people. Employee can withdraw PF only in case of emergency and bloody shit govt will hold our money till 59 years of age. Death keeps no Calender. Who knows when to die.
Only way to fight against this policy is to change this Govt and hope next Govt will do justice for middle class people.

This decision is not acceptable at all. The middle class people are expecting this money for his /her daugher’s marriage and higher studies. But blocking this amount may create lot of problem to them. Government started giving interest, but what is the right to block the hard earned money. This policy may remove immediately, which will create lot of problem for middle class people ( less income people. Government has no right to block this money.

The new EPF withdrawal changes is completely against employees interest. Why should the epfo hold our money. we should get it completely while resignation and we will invest it in anywhere we would like.

Dear Mr. Modi and Jaitley,
The new rule implimented by your new govt for epfo is totally not acceptable by us. This is totally in favor of the govt servants and not for private sectors. If we are not able to use our epfo money when needed, then what’s the use of that money. If you withdraw this new rule, your govt will surely win the next election, else you will not. Most of the voting candidate are from the private sectors only. Please help the middle class people.

This rule not ok for low class people.
In 40 year my son go to college for study, I close the epf account get the pf money then pay the college fee,
this rule not useful for above subject,
pls change the rules.
Dear Govt.:
The government is playing with salaried class. EPF is our hard earned money. Government has not given it to us. We must be allowed to use it any how. They cannot put age restrictions for withdrawal.
What is more distressing that it is applicable with retrospective effect and that is really bad. We planned our EPF according to existing rules, now suddenly government cannot unilaterally change rules with retrospective effect. That is cheating. What guarantee next year they will not again change rules arbitrarily. We have lost all faith in this government.
don’d do any thing.no need age limited withdrawal

This is not fair ,for those person ,who are not interested to service,so want to left own job and after then they want to start own busyness. So government sould back this rule immediately,so that any one can choice to do own business by helping own 100% withdraw EPF money .
We request to modi sarkar ,please back this rule.
Second We have question ,that this rule will be allowed all previous EPF saving or will be allowed further those EPF saving ,which would be saved after 1 April 2016 ??? please clarify this.
This rule is totally wrong and should be roll back by govt immediately.Previous rule was correct i.e.55 yrs instead of 58 yrs.Such type of rules are only applicable to govt employee and not a private sector.Govt takes full guarranty of his emlopyee s and not takes any guarranty for private worker.In my
opinion it is wrong policy to private sector. It should be applicable after september 2015 new joining where in after retirement good pension will be receive to worker and presently Rs 1000 pension is zeero.please clearify.

I am also interested to know, as I am currently in USA and left the Job from USA in Oct 2015. But I was lazy to apply for withdrawal. If in case I can withdraw PF being I am in USA working in USA not in India at all then I would apply my case for withdrawal.
Second thing which is not clear if I do not withdraw PF amount will it earn interest after 3 years. Is there any way I can contribute to my EPF account myself to keep the account active?
Govt has not taken back the the ruling that one withdraw Employer part of EPF before 58 years.
But on 29 Mar 2016 they announced that from 1 Apr 2016 there will be no inoperative account so the employer contribution to EPF will continue earning interest
Currently there is no way to withdraw online. In Aug Online withdrawal facility is expected. So you can wait till then.

We can not withdraw employers contribution. This contribution is for our hard work. This is really pathetic that we can’t withdraw our hard earned money. If any person left job and start own business why should not get total pf. In spite of having own money go for a loan to start business.
Already we can not withdraw amount transferred to pension fund for having pf account more than 10 years. If by mistake nomination is not registered family member will not get this money.
How can they deny it?

So, please roll back the decision and save private employees, so that the public can increase their faith on present govt.

Looks like there is big short in EPF account. That’s why they are not giving our money including employers money. Its not government prerogative to hold our retirement money and give us back later. Please watch Movie “Tabarana Kathe” in youtube.

He has to give study to their children, marriage etc And wait for upto 58 years ? the new rule is equal to the killing a common man and his family.

This is unfair decision because if any body serve only 2 year in one organization and leave it doing something like business or own agricultural work . What is meaning of waiting to 58 year.
Govt. should think and withdraw.

Dear Sir/madam,
It is the wrong policy of government for locking the employer contribution up to 58 yrs,which is far from away the life of all epf member and it should be roll back.secondly the epf pension is very small ie Rs 1000 to maximum Rs 2200
instead of govt employee.Presently govt employee pension is Rs 8000 minimum and Rs 2000 pension of private employee is zeero as per the market cost. In my openion govt give final amount to worker and give stop the nothing
such zeero pension.
Thanks for your suggesion and assure that you will mail us all the present status of this rule and help all of members who are very sad from new epf withdrawl rule.please also tell us for the interest paying by govt in both employee and employers share upto 58 yrs, when govt is used worker amount for country work,then can also give the higher rate of interest hence no profit to all in this rule.

instead of govt employee.Presently govt employee pension is Rs 8000 minimum and Rs 2000 pension of private employee is zeero as per the market cost. In my openion govt give final amount to worker and give stop the nothing
such zeero pension.
Thanks for your suggesion and assure that you will mail us all the present status of this rule and help all of members who are very sad from new epf withdrawl rule.please also tell us for the interest paying by govt in both employee and employers share upto 58 yrs, when govt is used worker amount for country work,then can also give the higher rate of interest hence no profit to all in this rule.

This is the kacche din BJP is offering to common people. we can’t decide on our own hard earned money and never if we would be alive for 58yrs to utilise our own hard earned money, If government wants to improve the market conditions let them harass the people with black money. Let they tackle them instead of hitting the salaried class people who are the genuine tax payers.
This is my money then why i am wait till 58 year for withdraw,pls let me know if goverment wans make india they should return back black money
anather thing Modi goverment will prommised after BJP Govt every persons ate getting 15 lacs,i think our pf cash they provide each account and after 58 age return back

Sir,
it is harassing to private employees. If any body lost his/ her job, If he/she decide to start a business then with out the PF fund how can it be possible. How can he manage his family? He has to give study to their children, marriage etc And wait for upto 58 years ? the new rule is equal to the killing a common man and his family.

I had submitted my PF forms for with drawal, but due to the miscommunication between the company my PF was hold due to some reasons, after several followups my PF was submitted on 8th March 2016, when i enquired about the status of my PF, the PRO confirmed that due to the recent changes PF will not be processed. Can you help me when this can be sorted out.
Wait for few days. Due to budget proposal for EPF EPFO seems to have stopped processing the returns.

Hi everyone My Name is Taiyuv Khan
I have resigned from my job in Dec 2015. please let me know that am i eligible for Withdrawal my full PF amount?
please reply.
Have not got a job ? If you are not working for 2 months after resignation you can apply for PF withdrawal.
Currently as per rule change in EPF you will not get your employer share.
If you have worked for less than 5 years PF withdrawal will be taxable.
So if you can wait do wait for a month or so – a) The financial year will change so your income would go down and hence tax on EPF withdrawal ,if worked for less than 5 years, will be minimised.
b) Employer share issue might get reversed.
c) From Aug there might be online withdrawal process.
What about Pension withdrawal ?
Please advise.

This is really pathetic that we can’t withdraw our hard earned money i.e. employer contribution at will. All they want is to work for them till 58 years and pay the whatever taxes they force upon us.
I was having this plan of starting my own business after 4-5 years with the help of my PF money and other savings, was not expecting that would be screwed this way. The present government decisions have been really heavy on the common people, not expecting acche din this way.

Hello,
It doesn’t talk about who has immigrated outside India permanently. I left job in Dec 2015 and moved to Canada permanently. I am about to apply for withdrawal. Now what changes for me?
Thanks and regards,
Kanchan Dutta
From what we understand it applies to those also who are leaving India permanently. You would do our readers a favor if you could update us on whether you get full amount or not.
Thanks for the prompt response.
I’ll definitely let you know. But keeping fingers crossed, I think that the immigrants have been spared.
I have 93 page EPF scheme document with me.
They have modified paragraph 69, but left paragraph 69(1)(c) untouched. This paragraph and only this paragraph talks about immigrants.
I’m saying this based on the circular you shared above, point no. 6.
As per the circular you shared, they have changed the following paragraphs
– 26A subparagraph 1
– 68-NN
– 68-NNN
– 68-O
– Added a new paragraph 68-NNNN
– Modified 55 years to 58 in paragraph 69
– Omitted paragraph 69(1)(e)
– Omitted 69(2) and (5)
So they left 69(1)(c) untouched, paragraph related to migration.
But then the government offices are full of incompetent people.
Let me know your opinion.
I am also interested to know, as I am currently in USA and left the Job from USA in Oct 2015. But I was lazy to apply for withdrawal. If in case I can withdraw PF being I am USA working in USA not in India at all then I would apply my case for withdrawal.
Second thing which is not clear if I do not withdraw PF amount will it earn interest after 3 years. Is there any way I can contribute to my EPF account myself to keep the account active?
Tej,
I’m not sure whether you are aware of this or not. Make sure that your EPF forms are “accepted” with date stamp at RPFO, before 30-April-2016.
Due to complications in implementing the new withdrawal rules, these have been postponed to be effective from 01-May-2016.
So if you can, make sure that your RPFO receives all the “relevant” and “correct” documents before 30-April-2016.
Also note that my documents were accepted and stamped on 16-March-2016, but the acknowledgement was dated 18-March-2016. So you need to keep margin for at least 3-4 working days.
Hope this helps.
Hello,
I received the full EPF and pension amount with interest, within less than 30 days.
I resigned in December-2015 end and the documents were accepted at RPFO on 18-march-2016.
I’m not sure whether I received the full amount,
because government is postponed the new withdrawal rules effective from 1-May-2016
OR
because I fall in immigration case.
Thanks
sir are u got both employee and employer share
Yes, I’ve received both
Govt has postponed no withdrawal on employer contribution till 1 May 2016. So if any application of EPF for withdrawal approved by EPF before 1 May 2016 will allow both employee and employer contribution.

Before releasing the notification government should have given a window of 6 months so that anyone having plans to leave the job and withdraw amounts for their future business plans could have benefited
Common Sense is not that common. It is a ridiculous idea and Govt didn’t even check with EPFO!

I left a Job in Dec 2015 and after waiting period of 2 Months I was suppose to receive withdrawal in March however HR has put this on hold stating they are seeking clarification on new notification passed. Would I be eligible for Full withdrawal or just My share and Interest ? Please advise ?
Everyone in waiting for clarification on Rule declared by Govt on 10 Feb 2016. As of today you cannot get employer share of EPF.
People are trying to get it rolled back just like the tax on EPF in budget. Keep fingers crossed.

When a member avails advance of PF for repayment of loan. How does his PF account get impacted. Will the eligible amount be deducted from employees contribution or will it be proportionally deducted from both employees & employer contribution. I am planning to avail advance for settlement of pending amount on housing loan , but I am not sure if its a wise decision without understanding how the advance will get deducted from my pf balance.

i dont think so this is a good for all private employees coz every one is having their own plan for their own budget. without doing any survey taking decisions is not acceptable. govt. will continue the earlier rule otherwise the revenue through epf will decrease day by day. as the private working professionals will not agree to pay as to get the amount after 58 years.i think this is one man so which will not acceptable in indian democrac
Yes we agree with you. Quoting the petition:
The EPFO or the Government thinks that an employee needs the PF money only after the retirement and happily ignored the other life stages or situations of an employee.
In this age of insecure private jobs, what will happen to the people who lose their jobs and do not find a new job?
What about the people who will not be able to work anymore due to family or medical reasons or physical incapability?
What about the people who does not want to work anymore or leave the country?
What about the people who wants to quit the job to do something on their own at some point in their career? Don’t we want more entrepreneurs and realize the dream of Make In India?
Does the EPFO or the Government wants the people, with only provident fund savings, to starve until retirement age and then withdraw the PF money?
I completely agree, pvt employees jobs are not as secured as govt. job. I am thinking doing my own to support make in India, now I need to rethink.
What if he dies?

If an employee voluntarily retired at the age of 50 and kept his provident fund untouched till the age of 53, earlier he could withdraw his as well as his employer’s contribution plus interest accrued thereof at the age of 53 as the fund accrued interest for 3 years after the employee retired.
With this new rule dated 10/2/2016, he can withdraw only his part of contribution at 53 and can only withdraw his employer’s contribution when he is 58 years of age.
What happens if the employee chooses not to withdraw his PF contribution till age of 58
Question arises now that if he chooses to withdraw his entire EPF (his as well as his employer’s contribution) after attaining the age of 58, WILL THE ENTIRE AMOUNT ACCRUE INTEREST TILL THE AGE OF 58 or will interest cease to get accrued after 3 years (as was earlier the case)?

what the hell is going in modi sarkaar for epfo, what is new notification doing for middle category people, every private sector employee has a one survival amount after his job that is provident fund and now that also steal by modi sarkaar why? why we wait for to be 58 years for employer share and pension fund even that is also a part of our salary package and company shows that part is given by them mostly the private companies do the same with their employees. i think by this kind of rules,people cant live more than 50 years, government dont have jobs for educated people and now private sectors is also not good in india so where we go how we survival other side modi g says make in india whta we make? i quit my job in last month and now a m jobless, who can take guarantee, when i will get new job in between how we survive pls think about midoker people.
Right yaar, what is this ?..
you are also right , this government is false .why we wait for our pension & emp. fund for 58 years.
This is ridiculous amendment to the EPF Scheme. Throw this government to ashes in next elections. wherever possible start casting your vote against current ruling party in central government. This government is totally falling onto middle class people and instead of protecting the rights of citizens it is trying to eat up the hard earned savings which were believed to be the most reliable savings that will be useful for future plans at different stages of life of the employees, for children education, marriages and other investments to stabilize till the end of life. It is more worse for private employees where there is no job security and even for government employees this amendment doesn’t provide any benefit as they too need at some point to use the savings for some or the other important event that is planned. Now with this amendment for any such requirement employees have to take loans from banks and pay high interests to the banks though they have their savings which cannot be utilised because of this uselsess amendment in EPF Scheme.
what the hell is going in modi sarkaar for epfo, what is new notification doing for middle category people, every private sector employee has a one survival amount after his job that is provident fund and now that also steal by modi sarkaar why? why we wait for to be 58 years for employer share and pension fund even that is also a part of our salary package and company shows that part is given by them mostly the private companies do the same with their employees. i think by this kind of rules,people cant live more than 50 years, government dont have jobs for educated people and now private sectors is also not good in india so where we go how we survival other side modi g says make in india whta we make? i quit my job in last month and now a m jobless, who can take guarantee, when i will get new job in between how we survive pls think about midoker people.
Right yaar, what is this ?..
you are also right , this government is false .why we wait for our pension & emp. fund for 58 years.

what is the way we can ask or force govt. to scrap this mandatory contribution of epfo and ensure that it is always optional. Any court process. If each salary class contributes Rs 10. we can get 60 Cr(6 cr salary class), and hire the best of the lawyer to take up our case.
I support, let make a forum

If one emplouee resigned on 0/02/2016 and submitted form after 60 days. Can he get full amount. Please reply.
No. Any form submission after 10 Feb 2016 would not get employer share of EPF. The rule became effective 10 Feb 2016 where the employer share will not be paid on withdrawal.
Sir,
My PF withdrawal from was submitted to PF department on 10-Feb-2016. Does the new PF withdrawal rule applies in my case also or can I withdraw my full amount (my share + employer share). Please clarify.
The rule is effective from 10 Feb 2016. So you should not be getting the employer share. Please Do update us.
Sir applied for of 7 jan 2016 and in my uan account there is my kyc is not atteched with the uan so what should u do for my pf amount. Should i withdraw my amount .
You applied for what on 7 Jan – UAN or Withdrawal of PF?
KYC is an acronym for Know your Customer or Know your client. It refers to due diligence activities that financial institutions and other regulated companies(LPG,telephone) must perform to ascertain relevant information from their clients for the purpose of doing business with them.
UAN needs to have KYC updated through employer as then withdrawal process becomes faster

Hello, thanks for this information. In our company the PF is handled by a PF trust instead on EPFO. Does this rule changes about early withdrawal also apply to such funds?
Yes they should.
The PF Trust may frame their own rules and regulations for maintenance of PF accounts but such rules and regulations are supposed to be based on relevant PF rules. A PF Trust has to give interest to the members at rate declared by the EPFO every financial year. To understand the difference between EPFO and a PF Trust, you well imagine of a co-operative bank allowed to run banking operations by the Reserve Bank of India. Now think of EPFO in place of RBI and the cooperative bank in place of a PF Trust and the difference will be clear.

HI ,
I have worked for 8 years in my organization ,on my resignation I can withdraw my PF share and pension amount . I cannot withdraw employer share . Is my understanding right ?
You can withdraw your EPF contribution (employee’s share only) ONLY if you ARE NOT EMPLOYED for AT LEAST 2 months. Regarding you pension amount, you can withdraw after 8 years (lesser than 10 years)

I have left my job in the month of October 2015 and applied for PF withdrawal in December 2015. Now I’m not employed. Today I have received a mail from HR department saying that as per the notification of Govt. of India dated 10-2-2016 the PF withdrawal is permitted only after the age of 58 years and they are waiting for clarification on the same. So my withdrawal request is on hold. As I have applied for PF before the current notification, am I eligible to withdraw my PF now? Can anybody give me an answer?
Curious to know about this.. I have also applied for full Pf withdrawal in mid Jan ’16. I was told it will take 3 months for Pf credit and now I’m wondering whether this new rule will be applicable in my case.
It takes around a month these days. If your form is approved by EPFO after 10 Feb 2016 then you would most probably not get Employer share. Please do keep us updated. It would help other readers.
If your employer was holding your PF withdrawal request until now and submitting it to EPFO now, this rule applies. U can withdraw only your contribution plus interest and not the employer’s contribution. This same thing happened to me.
can you provide me new pf withdrawal form without employer share & pension …… please please. its a request…

Govt. rules are getting harder. The policy was of course good for Govt employees as they don’t have RECESSATION in their jobs, whereas in private sector there is no guarantee of your job, if you leave a job at age of 27 you have to wait till 58 to get your hard earned money? Is it a joke? also it would be charged with 60% tax.
All Govts work for lower income groups and upper income groups. Middle class are always burdened with heavy taxes, strict rules.

They have made fool of all the private sector employees. In my case I am no more in job, doing business of mine. I require pf money for my business. With the new rule major portion of my pf will be stuck for years.
I think the idea of the government is not to give money
Common sense it not so common. Worse is they don’t give a window in which you can take decision whether you want to withdraw or continue. It becomes applicable the day it is announced.

This is loot by Modi Govt. We people are working in BPO’s & private sectors where we hardly have any allowances for emergencies like medical requirements etc. Neither there is any job security, forget the job security we don’t even know of the next day and then there is no govt for any job guarantee. With this rule we will be left stranded alone & now we can’t even withdraw our own hard earned epf money. So if we are now jobless or met any accident, forget abt d pf. Coz d govt is hoping dat u would die early and den they would be able to enjoy ur money

Hello,
I will be going abroad to study masters and postdoctorate, I have worked for almost 4 and half years. So according to the new rules, will the employer share be blocked in my EPF account in case I’m not employed in India for the coming 5 years atleast?
I’m not sure whether you are aware of this or not. Make sure that your EPF forms are “accepted” with date stamp at RPFO, before 30-April-2016.
Due to complications in implementing the new withdrawal rules, these have been postponed to be effective from 01-May-2016.
So if you can, make sure that your RPFO receives all the “relevant” and “correct” documents before 30-April-2016.
Also note that my documents were accepted and stamped on 16-March-2016, but the acknowledgement was dated 18-March-2016. So you need to keep margin for at least 3-4 working days.
Hope this helps.

We have been fooled by current govt showing the good picture. Now have to wait till new govt come and change the rules again.

It is not right to withhold the money earned by employee. As in most of the private sectors the employer’s share is reduced from the employees salary from the day of appointment. It is only on papers that it was employer’s share. As a result a big amount of salary is deducted in the name of EPF and EPS. When a person leaves job thinking he/she would get their hard earned money, so that they could meet their expenses till they find new job or stand their own business, then Govt new rules of EPF break their back bone.
This employee sector is mostly of common middle class families totally dependent on salaries. If they are denied of this income at their struggling stage, it is not a good idea.
Totally agree. Govt is making EPF rules stricter and stricter.
In budget by FM on 29 Feb 2016 they declared 60% of EPF deposits to be taxed on withdrawal
Can we start a petition or something like this where we can reach to the government officials and pressurize them to rollback the decision. This is really pathetic that we can’t withdraw our hard earned money i.e. employer contribution at will. All they want is to work for them till 58 years and pay the whatever taxes they force upon us.
I was having this plan of starting my own business after 4-5 years with the help of my PF money and other savings, was not expecting that would be screwed this way. The present government decisions have been really heavy on the common people, not expecting acche din this way.
yes we have to file a pitition
shit cheat government . cheating with innocent people who don’t know the abc of EPF i mean some illiterate person. this is very bad decision please change old one.
It has been changed. Govt has withdrawn the changes.
