    Dear Sir,

    My employer seeded wrong KYC details(bank a/c number, PAN) against my UAN. Later I myself uploaded correct details and employer approved them. But now, my approved KYC is showing both older incorrect kyc and the newly updated correct KYC. There is no ‘delete’ option on KYC page in epfo.

    Which kyc will be considered when I withdraw my PF ? (ps – I don’t wish to withdraw right now, only after my retirement which is several years from now).

    Thanks
    Revathi

    • Dear RevK ..You can request your employer to delete the unwanted row. They may in-turn request the EPFO to get this done.
      Kindly check with your employer.

        Dear Sreekanth,

        Thanks for the reply.

        I have already spoken to my employer and EPFO office. Both are saying that there is no option for them to delete a KYC once it is approved. I’m not sure whether this is correct or not?

        Thanks

    Hi Sreekanth,

    My wife was working with one firm where she has resigned in April’2009 due to personal reasons and not joined anywhere else. This placed she has worked for almost 2.5 year and now we have decided to withdraw he PF amount.
    She has her PF number and we also submitted PF withdrawal documents to company and which they are saying will take almost 4 months to get credit of PF amount.
    Can we get details of her PF account balance by online or mobile app (She doesn’t have UAN no. and can she activate UAN account with out company’s help).

    Please suggest.
    Thanks & Regards
