How to gain access to provident fund
28-May-2023 (In Labour & Service Law)
I have retired on 31-12-2016. The Employer has not contributed his part of PF from 2005 to 2014, but to my surprise the Employer contributed his part from 2015 to 2016 to EPFO at bengaluru. I asked the manager but there was no answer. Employees will have this two savings after retirement two feed their Families. I want to file the case in bengaluru.
Recently the government has proposed to introduce some rules to resist the PF withdrawal before retirement. The new rule shall be that you cannot withdraw the employers’ contribution towards PF before you turn to 58 years age.
You can withdraw your PF with the following ways:
New withdrawal form
Those who have linked their ADHAAR number with EPF account, their job has become very easy to withdraw the PF money. Only the filled up UAN based form 19 has to be submitted to EPFO. Seven information to put in the form such as Name, PAN no, Date of leaving service and Reason, canceled cheque etc. After the processing, the amount will be directly credited to Bank account.
Old Withdrawal Form
This old form 19 is obviously complex than the new ADHAAR based form. If you have completed 10 years of membership and want to withdraw the pension amount, you have to fill up form 10C. This filled up form has to be submitted to HR department of your past employer. In most of the cases, the process is full of hurdles. As you have left the organization and hence they are not in a position to serve you quickly. They take their own time and ultimately you receive the money very late after so many follow ups.
Online withdrawal
After much waiting, EPFO has introduced the system how you can withdraw the PF amount online. Members can apply for the following services.
a. PF Final Settlement (Form – 19)
b. Pension Withdrawal Benefit (Form – 10C)
c. PF partial withdrawal (Form-31)
The members are required to have the UAN number and Mobile number linked with the EPFO account. You have to update your AADHAAR number with the EPFO account for the online claim. If you don’t have UAN number till now collect it from your employer. You can also search your employee database or PF slip or salary slip for UAN number.
After getting the UAN no, you have to register your UAN no. on the EPFO portal. After successful registration, your mobile number will be linked with UAN no. With this UAN no. your future transactions with EPFO will be smooth.
You follow the steps for the online claim of PF amount.
Log in to the UAN portal with the UAN number.
Check the AADHAAR details have been updated or not? If not updated you cannot claim the money. It will ask to update AADHAAR.
You have to select relevant withdrawal type as mentioned above.
You need to verify the claim with the OTP received in your mobile. The mobile number has to be updated with UADAI database.
EPFO will verify the data from the database of UADAI and based on that they will process the claim.
In this regard, remember that there is no need to communicate with your past employer.
