An EPF (Employees Provident Fund) member can withdraw his/her PF balance partially for different kinds of purposes like ; for purchase of House / Flat, Site, Construction of house, to meet marriage expenses etc.,
An EPF subscriber can also take EPF advance for the purpose of medical treatment of self / family members. As of now, to make a partial withdrawal for medical treatment, a member has to submit a doctor’s certificate (medical certificate) along with the partial withdrawal form.
To add further convenience to EPF subscribers, an EPF member will no longer be required to submit any Medical certificate or any other certificate or document or proforma whatsoever to avail PF advances for medical treatment purposes.
This new guideline has been included and amended under paragraph 68-J or under paragraph 68-N of EPF Scheme 1952.
New Composite Claim Form for EPF Partial Withdrawal
The EPFO has recently introduced single page Composite Claim Form for full / partial withdrawals. You can use these new forms to take PF advance for medical treatment.
- EPF Composite Claim Form (Aadhar) : If your UAN has been seeded with Aadhar and bank details, this form can be submitted for all types of withdrawals. The attestation of employer is not required and this form can be submitted to EPFO directly. Click on the below image to download New EPF Composite Claim Form (Aadhar).
- EPF Composite Claim Form (Non-Aadhar) : If your UAN has not yet been seeded with Aadhar and bank details, this form can be submitted for all types of PF withdrawals. The attestation of employer is required and the form has to routed through an employer. Click on the below image to download New EPF Composite Claim Form (Non-Aadhar).
A couple of weeks back, the EPFO has also allowed its members to withdraw up to 90% of EPF balance for purchase of House / flat / site / construction of house.
It is nice to see these new initiatives being taken up by the EPFO but they also need to make sure that their online portals are up and live 24/7 (EPFO UAN based portals have been down due to some technical issues for the last many weeks). Also, let’s hope that EPFO will launch their online PF withdrawal facility soon 🙂
A word of advice ; Your EPF contributions / savings are meant for your retirement (long-term). So, think twice before you withdraw your PF money. Try out all the options and sources to fund your expenses or needs. EPF Partial Withdrawals should be your last resort.

Dear Sir, My years of service is more than 5 year. My employee share amount was 150000 Rs. I have already claimed once Advance PF for illness = 6 times my basic monthly salary = 6*10000 = 60000 Rs. through online proess. That is I have already claimed once 60000 Rs out of 150000 Rs my employee share in Dec 19. I received my first claim amount 60000 Rs. Now my Balance in Employee Share is 90000 Rs.
so, my question is :
1) can i once again claim for second time 60000 Rs. advance pf against illness from balance 90000 Rs through online process.,
2) or is it that i have already consumed the option of advance pf against illness on online process, as i have already clamed once advance pf against illness = 6 times my basic monthly salary = 6*10000 = 60000 Rs ( Pls advise ).
3) If i can claim for second time for 60000 rs = 6 times my basic monthly salary = 6*10000 , my question is how much months gap should i keep between 2 claims . My first 60000 rs claim was received in Dec 2019. so when should i Claim for second Advance pf claim.
Please advise Sir
Dear Vinay,
1 & 2 – Yes, can claim again but the amount will be subject to eligibility criteria.

Dear Sir,
When I Want to withdraw my Pension amount in below mentioned situations-
1. Before ten years (If I do not want to continue PF with new job), is a single online apply / claim will enough for withdrawal all Pension amount of all jobs , or have to apply / claim separately for each organization with form 10C for withdrawal all Pension amount of all jobs .
2. After ten years or after 58 years (If I continue PF with new job) is a single online apply / claim will enough for withdrawal all Pension amount of all jobs , or have to apply / claim separately for each organization with form 10C for withdrawal all Pension amount of all jobs .
Please inform / reply.

Dear Bivash,
1 – If you do consolidation of all your previous EPF accounts (if any) and maintain one active EPF account then one single EPS withdrawal claim (Form 10c) is enough.
2 – You can not withdraw EPS total balance, you need to apply for Pension. Suggest you to kindly go through the suggested link/article in my previous comment.

Sir,
If I take advance from PF for treatment of my mother then –
1. Should I need to submit Doctor’s certificate?
2. Should I need to repay the amount?
3. My Employee share of Previous Company is Rs. 41329 & Present Company is Rs. 6602, I also transfer whole amount from previous to present Company and My current basis Salary is Rs. 9481, then how much amount I will get for treatment of my mother.
Please inform me.
Thanking you.
Dear Bivash,
As per the EPFO’s notification, there is no need to submit any documentary evidence. And there is no need to repay the advance amount.
But, have noticed that EPFO has asked for documentary evidence if the Partial claims are submitted often.
“For the purpose of ‘medical treatment’, the least of 6 months basic wages (or) employee share with interest is allowed as partial withdrawal.””
Sorry to say I don’t understand the meaning of “But, have noticed that EPFO has asked for documentary evidence if the Partial claims are submitted often.” – according to your reply, please elaborate what is the difference between partial claims and advance.
Dear Bivash,
If an EPF member claims advance too often, I have noticed EPFO (may) asking for documents (ex : Medical certificate)..
Advance or partial claim, both are one and the same..
Thank you

Hello Sreekanth, I appreciate the information you provide on your blog as well as in Quora. I have a question which I already asked in Quora to you reply. My question is I have made a withdrawal from PF account to cover my medical expenses, I was under impression that I would get my 6 months basic wages + DA which comes around 1.3 lacs but I just got half of that amount. Is there any specific reason? Since the amount is not sufficient, can I make a withdrawal request again instantly? Thank you in advance.
Dear Saikat,
Thank you for following my blog posts and on Quora.

Hi Sreekant !!
I applied for 30K Medical Advance but only 4.8k was transferred-which was the balance at my present company’s employee contribution balance.
Later I understood my previous account was not transferred-that’s why the balance might not have reflected.I did request from my previous to previous employer-where my major portion PF was stuck–and proceeded with an online transfer requested-which got approved and the balance was also reflecting in my present organization’s pf balance.
Post that I applied again for 30k as that was required–My PF balance(employee contribution only) standing at 95k+ –however the same was rejected posting no reason at all.
Can you please tell me the reason-what can it be? I am unable to understand as for medical tenure of service is not required at all. Really in need of the same but unable to proceed,

If you are currently employed and contributing to EPF scheme then you can not make full PF withdrawal claim. Once you transfer the funds from your previous EPF account to new one, you can submit partial withdrawal claim.
Purchase of House/Flat through a Society / Housing Agency : If withdrawal application is through a Society then minimum years is 3 years. ( through a registered society or houses/flats being constructed through forming a society.) – Section 68 BD. In this case, 90% of EPF balance is payable as an Advance.
Purchase of House/Flat directly from a Builder : In this case, the Membership service criteria to withdraw is still considered as 5 years only. – they are referring to Section 68B.
For purchase of site directly from builder :
24 month’s basic wages and DA.
For purchase of house/flat/construction:
36 month’s basic wages and DA
OR
Total of employee and employer share with interest
OR
Total cost.
Whichever is least will be allowed as withdrawal.
Kindly read : EPF partial withdrawal options & rules..
Dear Sreekanth ,
Any documents need to submit for taking advance for medical ground?? anyhow i am expressing sincere thanks for such informations for public.
Dear Biswajit,
As long as there is sufficient balance, an EPF member can withdraw PF partially for the purpose of medical treatment. No, documents are required to be submitted.
But, a few blog readers have informed me that EPFO has again started requesting for Doctor certificate etc, though there is no official notification on this.
How many times i can withdraw advance for illness and treatment???
Hi Sreekanth,
I have Employee share: 2800 and Employer share 478000 – I have requested for PF withdrawal (Illness) of amount 3lacs but i see the status after 2 days as 69300 has been approved may i know so less? As per your comment it should be either 6 month basic salary or interest earned in employee share. My Basic pay is 50,000 per month so in that case 3lacs should been approved .. please advise.
Hi,
For the purpose of ‘medical treatment’, the least of 6 months basic wages (or) employee share with interest is allowed as partial withdrawal.”
What is the balance under Employee share?
Is Rs 50k total salary or just basic?
Hi Sreekanth,
I have Employee share: 2,800 and Employer share 4,78000. My basic salary is 50,000. But i got approved amount of 69,300, Why ? As per the process 6 months basic wage or interest of employee share i should have got 3lacs, is int?
Hi,
Kindly note that that it is LEAST of the two conditions.
Probably they would have paid employee share Rs 2800 + accumulated interest to you.

Hi Sreekanth,
Its been only 3 months since I have joined my company. Say for eg. if basic is 21000, so you mean to say that 1,26, 000 (21000*6) would be maximum amount that we can request ?
or else its only 3 times my basic as its only 3 months i have joined my new company? please explain
Also a quick question, if i have applied for 50k advance withdrawl for illness…. would there be any sort of deductions in my salary?
Dear chaitanya,
Is your employee share less than your 3 months basic pay?
If it is then you can withdraw up to that extent only.
There won’t be any deductions as such.
Dear Sreekanth,
Thanks for the reply. much appreciated
My 3 months basic pay in total is 65,000.
Employee share is 6,290 per month.
So pls tell me the amount that I am eligible to receive?
i didnt understand what extent you are referring to for withdrawl!1
Dear chaitanya,
It is the least of the two..So, in your case it is 6,290 * 3.
Hi Sreekanth,
Below is the current status 🙁 from EPFO claim status portal.
TOTAL AMOUNT APPROVED : 6200
Dear chaitanya,
So, 6300/6290 is your accumulated employee share and its not monthly. So, EPFO is correct.

how to correction in online pf form 31
Dear hemant ..In case, you have submitted the claim form online then I believe that you may not be able to correct/edit the details..
Hi Sreekanth,
I khow that the basic criteria for partial withdrawal is –
“The least of 6 months basic wages (or) employee share with interest is allowed as partial withdrawal.”
Now I am working in a company for 7 yrs and when I see PF passbook it is not showing interest part. Then for partial withdrawal if I need to consider interest part as well (to quote my required amount) then where to look for the interest part to put the correct amount.
In worst case if I put some amount and if this amount is exceeding allowed amount then can you please let me know if my claim will be rejected OR it will be settled with correction (max allowed amount)

Dear Anjanjyoti,
If your cumulative service period is more than 10 years then you can not withdraw EPS amount, you will get pension after 55/58 years of age.
However, you can withdraw EPF amount.
Have you transferred the funds from all your previous epf accounts to current one?
Hi Sreekanth,
Thank you for your reply.
I have transferred the EPF amount to the current organisation.
I want to withdraw the amount, please guide me how I can claim the amount. Also since EPFO has rejected my first claim request due to the reasons mentioned, so can i again place a new request for claim withdrawal.
Regards
Anjan
Dear Anjanjyoti,
Yes, you can submit online claim again.

Dear Anand,
Yes, if you be honest then you can not claim for the mentioned purpose.
By the by, do note that there is no need to submit any documents to claim partial withdrawal for medical treatment purposes.
Hi Sreekanth,
Thanks for your reply I have some more queries if you can please answer those that would be really helpful to me.
1. As I am taking this partial withdrawals for the cure of cancer of my Fathers sister but unfortunately I have to show that any one dependent like myself, my father or mother is having this problem, but the question here is as my company is having medical policy where my all dependents are covered, so is there any chance my company will reject this claim saying that you already have the medical policy and please go through with that.
2. Please provide me the Link of the form so that I can submit.
3. As my company has its OWN PF trust, so how many days will it take to credit the amount in my account.
4. whether company will require 24 hours hospitalization proof or not.
5. Is the amount directly credit in my account correct.
Thanks & Regards
Anand
Hi Sreekanth,
Also is there any medical certificate needs to be provided by the doctor to the company. Please confirm.
Thanks & Regards
Anand

Dear Saravanan,
You can apply multiple times for partial withdrawal for medical treatments and no time-gap is needed.
However, they might have rejected the application as there wont be any min amount that can be paid to you.
“For the purpose of ‘medical treatment’, the least of 6 months basic wages (or) employee share with interest is allowed as partial withdrawal.”
Dear Sir,
“For the purpose of ‘medical treatment’, the least of 6 months basic wages (or) employee share with interest is allowed as partial withdrawal.”
what is d exact means for above statement.could you pls explain with example..because i have confused
Dear Nijam,
For example : If basic salary is say Rs 1000 pm and accumulated employee contribution with interest is say around Rs 10,000 then
Least of i) Rs 6*1000 or
ii) Rs 10,000
which is Rs 6,000 is allowed as partial withdrawal.
Hi,
I worked in my first company for 4 years and when i left from there, i withdrew the PF amount.
Then I joined in another organization and worked there for 2 years 8 months.
Now I am working in another company for 8 months. I have transferred the PF amount of 2nd organization to current one.
Totally I have 7+ years of experience. I approached PF office for PF Advance with category ‘Construction of House’ which needs only 5+ years of membership with EPF. But They told that I have less than 5 years of service and I cannot apply for PF advance with that category.
My Question is, If we withdraw the PF amount, service will not be accumulated.? (4 years of service with my first company has not been added.)
Dear Karthi,
Yes, as you have withdrawn the funds from 1st EPF ac, that service period of 4 years wont get carried forward.
The service period of EPF-2 & EPF-3 only is considered.
Kindly read : EPF partial withdrawal rules & options

Dear Sir
I need a partial withdrawl from my PF for the medical treatment of my mother. She is not my dependent as per rules.
My father is getting pension. Can I get amount of 6 months basic and DA.
Dear Athar,
If we go by rules, I believe an EPF member can make partial withdrawal for medical treatment of dependent parents only.
If you require the money urgently, you may go ahead with the partial withdrawal (though I should not advise you like this), but health is more important!
Kindly read : EPF partial withdrawal rules and options!
Hi,
I had left my previous organization on 4th November, 2017 and joined new one on 20 November, 2017. Now when I am applying for PF ,there is only one option available i.e. advance FORM 31 . Wjy I am not getting any other option ? Moreover I have applied for advance payment under illnes category so how to camcel that ?
Dear navdeep,
I dont think there is an option to cancel the claim which is already submitted.
Mostly, your ex-employer might not have updated the Date of Exit under Services history menu tab. Kindly check with them.
If you are employed and currently contributing to EPF, you can not make full balance withdrawal.
Thabk you for your reply.
My previous pf amount was 8700(including employee and employers contributions) and 4500 amount was towards Pension contributions.
And I have applied for 10,000/- advance payment. And in my new company therr is no PF deposit yet. So would I get this 10,000/- applied sum ? And If yes then do I need to return this back ???
Dear Navdeep,
There is no need to return the advance amount to the EPFO.
How much you can get- it depends on the ‘purpose of withdrawal’.
Kindly read : EPF partial withdrawal options & rules.

Hi SIr,
I am Mehul Munge applied for partial pf withdraw for alteration of home in last month Aug 2017 but i got sms saying it got rejected due to insufficient service. I have completed 3 years.What are the other options so i can withdraw pf amount.
Do we need to compete 5 yrs to avail for withdwaing partial pf amount.
Dear Mehul,
If you are applying individually then 5 years is the minimum service period for partial withdrawal towards house construction.
If application is through a society or housing agency then minimum period is 3 years.
I believe that for alterations/repairs, the condition is ‘5 years from the date of completion of house’.
Kindly read : EPF partial withdrawal rules & options..
Thank you Sir for your information.
I have one question. How much amount we can withdraw pf amount for medical purpose.
Dear Mehul,
It is, least of i) 6 months Basic + DA or ii) Employee share with interest.
Kindly read : EPF partial withdrawal options and rules.
Do we need medical certificate from doctor for this.and what is self declaration.is it seperate form or main withdrawl form is sufficient.
Thanks.
Dear Mehul,
No other documents are required if you are submitting the claim online.
If it is offline claim, you can just submit new Composite Claim Form.
Dear Sreekanth
This is your Information that for medical purpose Form C is required for both Online or offline. I have applied from UNA portal and got rejected showed remarks is ” enclose necessary certificate”
Dear Prashanta .. I believe that different EPF officers are following different procedures as of now, one of my blog readers has applied for the same, claim was rejected, he again applied online with no documents, claim was accepted.
As per the latest EPFO’s notification, no additional certificate is required for partial withdrawal for the purpose of medical treatment.
Hello sir,
Where i would get EPFO notification saying for medical purpose no certificate is required and there is no minium service is reqquired.Please send me this notification so i can give details to my HR he is asking for me.
Dear Mehul..You may kindly check this link from Ministry of Labour – press release.
Thank you very much sir.
for wihtdrwaing pf amiunt for medical purpose is there any number of years of service is required. Please give me that link also.
Dear Mehul ..No minimum service period is required, this rule has been there earlier also.
You can check this link (EPFO’s).
for any construction of house you need to complete 5 years service
Dear Dinesh/Mehul ..If applying through a housing society or agency or cooperative society, the minimum service period for the said purpose is 3 years only.
Hi Sree,
i have two EPF accounts (with old org.- worked for 4 years) and another with current org. (working for past 2 yrs).
Due to some medical urgency, i need full withdrawl at the best or if not possible, at least partial withdrawl.
what would you suggest:
Option 1: Apply composite claim (aadhar) form against old epf account?
Pros: Immediate cash in hand.
Cons: Bear 10% TDS. Also, wont be able to furnish doctor certificate over a quick period
Option2: First merge old epf account with new one and then apply for PART withdrawl
Pros: No TDS.
Cons: Not sure off total turnaround time? Any guesses?
Also, believe would be able to only partly withdraw? what about max. allowed %?
Dear Saurabh,
I guess, online transfer is pretty quick can happen within a week (max) and you may then apply for partial withdrawal (yes it is partial).
In case, you require it urgently, suggest you to make online partial withdrawal from your current EPF account (TDS is applicable), and then apply for online transfer of funds from old EPF account and then apply for one more partial withdrawal for medical treatment.
Kindly read : EPF partial withdrawal options & rules..
How long it should take after I submit the composit form offline for medical emergency?
Dear Tirthankar ..may be around 2 to 4 weeks..
I want to partially withdraw from my PF account by using the physical form for medical treatment purposes. I am not able to apply online as it shows multiple PF accounts linked to my UAN.
Please let me know how and where should the form be submitted? Can I send the form by post or courier? I am based out of Delhi office of my organisation. But the PF account falls under PF office in Ambattur in Karnataka.
Regards
Harish Pandey
Dear Harish,
Yes, you can submit new Composite Claim Form…
Suggest you to also consolidate your old EPF accounts..Transfer the funds from your old EPF accounts to new one.
Dear Sreekanth,
Thankyou for your prompt reply. Could you please let me know where should I send the form to? The PF office in Delhi area under which my office falls or the PF office in Ambattur, Karnataka?
And I have another query. If I apply for partial withdrawal for renovation in my existing parental house, would the amount be transferred to my account or do I need to provide the details of the contractor who would carry out the alterations?
Regards
Harish
Dear Harish,

Hi Sreekanth,
So I have finally sent my partial withdrawal claim form to EPFO. However, I hear from a colleague that employees of Infosys (I work there) wouldn’t be allowed to submit claims directly to EPFO because it has a separate PF Trust or something. Do you have any information on this? Should I approach my employer for this withdrawal or will the offline claim be processed?
Thanks in advance!
Anil
Dear Anil ..You may kindly check with your employer…
Do provide the status update here..will be useful to other readers..thank you!
Hi Sreekanth,
Thanks for the updates. I found out that my PF office is the one in Bommasandra, Bangalore. The lady at the PF office told me that I can send the composite claim form along with a cancelled cheque to the BOM office via post. Is that possible? Would i need to attach any documents other than the claim form and cancelled cheque? If i send the claim by post, will I still be able to track it online? How long will this route take once they receive the claim by post?
Thanks in advance!
Regards
Anil
Dear Anil,
Yes, it is possible. You have to enclose cancelled cheque leaf, a copy o PAN card and Form 15G.
Yes, you can track the claim status online. Generally they take around 2 to 3 weeks to settle offline claims.
Hi Sreekanth,
Do we need to submit PAN and 15G if the service period is more than 5 years?
Thanks in advance.
Anil
Dear Anil.. PAN copy has to be enclosed. Surprisingly, the EPFO has been asking for Form 15G from all the offline applicants (irrespective of eligibility conditions..)

Dear Prashanth,
Did you submit the claim online or offline? I have submitted an offline claim about a month back and the claim is still not showing up in the EPFO portal. And if you had submitted the claim offline how long did it take to show up in the portal? Also is your claim settled now? Thanks in advance.

Hi Sreekanth,
Thanks for the updates. I have a medical emergency in my family. So to make a partial withdrawal all i need is the new composite form. Is that right? Do i need to carry any documents in original/copies? How long does the whole process take to complete form form submission to account crediting?
Thanks in advance.
Dear Anil,
Yes, you can submit New Composite claim form .
You also have the option to withdraw online.
No documents are required to be submitted along with the withdrawal application.
Generally, EPFO settles claim within 10 to 20 days (offline).
Hi Sreekanth,
When I am trying to make an online claim I am getting the a message which says Aadhar not authenticated, please visit EPFO office. Can you please tell me how I can get this authenticated? Also how long does it take the EPFO to settle an online claim?
Thanks in advance.
Anil
Dear Anil,
Your personal details in Aadhaar Vs UAN may be mis-matching.
You may get the linking done by visiting EPFO office.
Though they have said that online claims will be settled on the same day, looks like they are taking 2 to 10 days to process these..need to get a clarity on this!
Hi Sreekanth,
So today I visited the EPFO regional office in Trivandrum. They checked and informed me that my PF account belongs to a different PF office and I should submit the claim directly to that office. Can we find our concerned PF office from the UAN number?
Thanks in advance.
Regards
Anil
Dear Anil,
Simple way is to check with your employer/ex-employer about the concerned EPF office address where your account is being administered.
You can also know the PF office details based on your EPF account number ..click here..read this article..
