If you are a salaried individual and contributing to EPF scheme then you may be aware of EPFO’s OTCP (Online Transfer Claim Portal). PF subscribers have been using this online portal for submitting online EPF transfer requests (transfer of PF funds from previous EPF account to new EPF account).
However, the EPFO has recently launched a new facility for submitting EPF transfer claims online. This new provision has been provided through EPFO’s unified member portal interface.
What is EPF transfer? – When you (EPF member / employee) change your company, instead of withdrawing PF amount, you can transfer EPF balance to your new PF account. You can transfer EPF funds either through offline (or) online mode. If you submit EPF transfer claim online, the entire process can get over in just few days. It is simple and easy!
Online EPF Transfer Facility : Pre-requisites
Below are the pre-requisites to transfer EPF online through Unified EPF Member Portal ;
- You should seed your Bank account & Bank IFSC Code details to your UAN (Universal Account Number). These KYC details should have been verified by your ex-employer.
- Seeding of Aadhaar is optional for online EPF Transfer Claims.
- Your Date of Joining (DoJ) and Date of Exit (DoE) with reason for ‘Exit’ in the previous Company should be available on Unified Portal.
- Kindly note that only one transfer request against the previous member ID (EPF a/c) can be accepted. (In case, you have multiple old EPF accounts then you can consolidate your EPF accounts using – ‘One Employee – One EPF account‘ facility.)
How to transfer EPF online through Unified Member Portal?
Below is the step-by-step procedure to do online EPF transfer ;
- Kindly visit Unified Portal (member interface). Login with your credentials (UAN ID & Password).
- Click on ‘Transfer Request‘ under ‘Online Services’ menu tab.
- You then need to select and provide the details of your previous EPF account (previous Member-ID). You have the option to submit the online EPF transfer request to your ex-employer or current employer (for attestation). You need to provide previous Member-ID or UAN number in the respective field. In case, your EPF account number format is an old one, you can generate Member-Id (in new format) by clicking on ‘Get MID’ option.
- In the next step, you need to click on ‘Get OTP’ to authenticate your online EPF transfer claim request. Kindly note that an OTP will be sent on UAN registered mobile number only. Enter the OTP and click on ‘submit’ button.
- You are then required to submit the signed copy of the online PF transfer claim (PDF document) to the selected employer within a period of 10 days. (Somehow, I believe that they should have done away with this offline work!)
- Your employer may then digitally approve your EPF transfer request.
Latest news (11-August-2017) :
Your PF account will be transferred automatically when you change your job….(w.e.f Sep, 2017) – Chief PF Commissioner, EPFO. (Source – The Times of India.). The Adhaar number should have been seeded with UAN and it should also have been verified. Kindly read – “Detailed procedure on Auto-transfer of EPF account on change of job | How to stop an auto-initiated EPF Transfer Claim?“.

While we try to claim PF amount for one of our employee at initial stage Aadhar verified by UIDAI and the Aadhar linked with the UAN account. When we try to claim the amount at the final stage it sent the OTP for claim but showing the following reason “OTP verified but the data available against the UAN in system is not matching with the data available with UIDAI (AADHAAR)”. But we hadn’t make any correction on AAdhar. Kindly help me to find a solution for this issue.
Dear RAKESH,
Is this Transfer claim or Withdrawal claim?
While I try to transfer previous PF amount to current PF account at the final stage it sent the OTP for claim but showing the following reason ” Form Tempered”
Kindly Suggest.
I am getting error while entering the member ID. “Details of previous account are different than present account. Hence claim request cannot be processed.”
Kindly suggest.
Dear Priyanka,
Kindly check if your personal details like name, Date of birth, gender etc are matching between the two EPF accounts..

Kindly check if your previous EPF account is maintained by a PVT Trust of your ex-employer..
Hi,
Same situation!

Also, When I put UAN, it says “failed to verify UAN” please advise.

Hi Sreekanth,
Need your expert comments
I joined Kotak in Sept 2014 and left the organization in Feb 2017, my pf number was MH/BAN/xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
I joined new Organization (ANZ Bangalore) in Mar 2017 and they opened another pf number within same UAN, I left the ANZ in May 2018.
After that i moved to Toronto, Canada.
I recently did the PF Withdrawal online through EPF portal but i got just the balance from ANZ pf account number
So as of now balance in my ANZ pf account is 0 and my Kotak pf account has over 3 lacs.
My understanding is that pf was not transferred from “Kotak pf account” to “ANZ pf account” when i changed the organization. Although Both are under same UAN.
Now that I have withdrawn ANZ pf so i am unable to initiate the transfer from one epf acc to other acc.
So my ques is, only option left is to withdraw PF manually through Kotak Mahindra Bank or i can do that online as well.
I submitted an online request through”One member one epf account” using option ” Attestation through present Employer” and now claim status shows “Accepted by field office”. I do have a tracking ID there as well.
Earlier it was showing as ” Accepted by present employer” and now changed to “Accepted by field office”
When i reached out to ANZ; the office person told me to reach out to Kotak and do the process manually but seems like , online transfer is working
Can you comment on this issue.
Please assist.
Dear Nishant,
If your latest EPF account (ANZ) has been settled (final settlement is done) then I am not sure if the funds (Kotak EPF ac) will get transferred to your ANZ EPF ac..
If it does then its a new learning to me as well!
In case, if it gets through then how can you submit final settlement again for the EPF ac which is already settled?? (sorry for cross-questioning!)
In case, if it does not get through, you may kindly contact Kotak team, can submit offline withdrawal request. If your Aadhaar/KYC has been seeded then you can submit claim form to the concerned EPF regional office directly as well.

Hello,
I have recently joined a new organisation in January 2019.
My online PF account only reflects my 1st employer history. The 2nd and 3rd employer details aren’t reflected. This is my 4th employer and I’m unable to initiate a Transfer in request.
Who should I contact to view my previous employers history?
My name appears in the list of employees under the respective Company search option of EPFO.
Please help.
Thank you.
Dear Marushka,
Are the all EPF accounts been linked to same UAN? Did you consolidate your EPF accounts (transferred the funds from previous to latest EPF ac?)
Hi Sreekanth,
I’m trying to find out from my previous employers.
As far as I remember, I had submitted Form 13 to each of them to initiate a Transfer.
Dear Marushka,
You can check in your EPF Passbook.
You can also request for Annexure – K by submitting a grievance request to the EPFO via this link..
Hi Sreekanth,
Thanks for your wonderful post.
I worked for an employer from 2012 to Aug 2018 lets say A and then joined company B(PF under Trust account) from Sep 2018 (will be resigning this month) and will join Company C in Mar 2019.
Currently I can see Two PF accounts under my UAN account and I never raised a request to transfer amount from A to B and I don’t know if its done automatically.
So my question is, Since B is trust account I cannot see the balance in PF passbook (1) How can I know my balance In B passbook? and (2) Is there anyway to know if it includes my balance amount from company A?
If B doesn’t have A amount included, then once if join C (3) Can i raised a transfer request to move A to C and B to C?
Thanks in advance.

Dear SHAIK,
May I know why your present employer (2nd) is unable to deposit the EPF contributions??
Hi Sreekanth,
I recently joined to my new company on 28th Jan 2019 and my last working day in previous company was 25th Jan 2019. Now when i open my UAN account, I would see present employer details where they created new PF account under same UAN number. But I could’t see my previous employer details and transfer option too.
I see be error in the bottom of the same page
Online claim request cannot be processed as :- Present employer has not made payment in your PF account.
I have 2 questions here
1. Will this issue get resolved once my current company start depositing PF amounts to the UAN/PF account?
2. I already submitted partial PF withdrawal from my Previous Company PF account on same UAN. Will this request will process through or not?
Please help me on this.
Thanks,
Ram.
Dear Ram,
1 – Yes
2 – If it is partial claim (and if eligible), it will be processed.
After few days, you may try transferring the funds from previous EPF ac to current EPF ac.
Is your previous EPF ac maintained by the Pvt Trust of your ex-employer?
Thanks Sreekanth for the information.
Previous EPF was maintained by ex-employer only.
Dear RAMKUMAR,
For transfer of funds from a Pvt trust to non-trust, you may contact your ex-employer and submit the transfer request..
Hi Sreekanth,
Now my PF transfer request shows “Accepted by employer”. May I know what is the next state and how many days will it take to complete transfer request.
Dear Ramkumar ..It may around 7 to 15 business days (as per my observations..). Keep a track of your claim and Passbook entries.
Hi Sreekath,
I have raised PF transfer request and it got accepted by my current employer on 9th April 2019. After that there is no updated on this. Any way I get information about the current status? Please help me…
I’ve initiated online transfer (using EPFO website) of PF from my previous organisation (unexempted) to current organisation (exempted) on 18-Jan-2019.
The status of this transaction is still showing as ‘Submitted’. I’ve submitted the ‘Form 13’ in my Previous organisation too (attestation to previous employer)
Do my previous employer needs to approve the transfer request? They were saying like there isn’t any necessity of approval in online process. Is that true?
Dear Prem,
I believe that they need to approve the transfer claim..kindly follow it up with them..
Hi Sreekanth
My current Employer pf account is with Trust. When I applies to transfer/merge (from older to current) these accounts.
After i provide PF No. (Trust) in following format
GNGGN000xxxx0000yyyyyy
I get following error,
“Invalid present PF A/C number. In case if PF A/C in trust differs from member’s PF A/C number, then maximum allowed length is 20. Please enter valid data.”
Dear Amit,
I believe you need to contact your ex-employer and get the funds transferred through offline mode….
I think Your ex ememployer has Put wrong date of exit in your epf portal .Contact your Ex Employer.
Thanks both of you. It was a system validaton glitch, it worked finally.
i am also getting the same error.. how it was resolved for you?
You can try different browsers after clearing the cache, browser history.
It requires PF no. for your current account as mentioned in your payslip. For example for me it was GNGGNxxxxx by default.
So For trust PF no. i had entered like GNGGNxxxxx
and for EPF no. I had added GGNxyyyyy. Make sure it is as per the required format.
The other possibility is that your ex-employer had entered wrong exit date as mentioned by Puspadhar.
I have two PF accounts (same UAN). I am trying to transfer, after selecting “Attestation through Present Emplpyer and Entering UAN, I am not getting any any details upon clicking ” Get Details”. I have the same mobile number updated in Aadhar and UAN portal. Please help me.
Dear Kiran,
Kindly check if your previous EPF account is being administered by a PVT trust of your ex-employer..
Sir,
I got two UAN numbers and old UAN having having two employer which having issue with date mismatch. But, they have not given date of exit for withdrawal. Both the employers are not responding for the above issue and it’s not allowing me to transfer either due to account mismatch error. Kindly guide me for the mentioned issue.
Dear Nagaraj,
Your Employers have to co-operate with you and update the DoJ/DoE details for the respective EPF accounts. Kindly follow it up with them..
Sir my transfer claim is Accepted by employer . what is next stage.
Dear Mr Chavan,
Kindly just wait for the transfer to complete. You can check your Passbook (EPF) for the TRANSFER-IN entry.

Dear shreekanth,
I have two pf member ids, I want to transfer my old pf into new one. I chose attestation through present employer, I sent hard copy with signature to present employer. But the previous employer is denying to confirm it.
What should I do?
Dear Dhairya,
Any specific reason for non-cooperation?
Yes, actually he asked me to sign resignation letter. But I denied because he has 30k arrear due of me. He wants me to forget arrear and then he will approve for pf. Its totally harassing
Dear Dhairya,
You may submit your grievance to the EPFO about this via this link..
If the issue is not resolved, you may let your ex-employer know that you may escalate this issue with the concerned Labor court. (I am assuming that your final settlement/arrears have also not been settled…)
Yes you are correct, he is adamant to not giving arrear. Even he say you do whatever you want. As he has company he has lawyers also. Will it be easy or should I forget my arrear amount.
Dear Dhairya,
That YOU need to decide..
Sir I was working in one company previously he allotted me one UAN number.I left that company and joined another company. Instead of creating new UAN number new company started using same UAN number for my PF amount. Now I want the whole PF amount of previous company. Is there any way to get it? Please suggest me sir.
Dear Ambica,
As you are currently employed and contributing to EPF scheme, you can not withdraw full PF.
Suggest you to kindly get the funds from your previous EPF ac to current EPF ac (if not yet done).
Sir,how many days it takes for advance withdrawal of PF?
Dear Ambica,
Online claims can be settled within 15 business days and offline ones within 30 days..

previous company is already shutdown. I do have my old PF no.Request you to guide me to withdraw my PF.
Dear Basheer,
If you are employed and currently contributing to EPF Scheme, you can get the funds from your previous EPF ac transferred to the latest EPF ac.
If you are unemployed then you can withdraw the funds.
Suggest you to contact the EPFO via Inoperative Helpdesk facility.
If possible, you can also contact the concerned EPF regional office (where you old EPF ac is administered) and get the funds transferred.
Hi Sreekanth,
Do you have any idea about why the epf site showing error FORM PARAMETERS TAMPERED
Dear Ajeesh,
This can be due to a temporary Technical issue..kindly try after sometime.. You may also submit your grievance to the EPFO online via this link..

How can i claim my pf amount since i dont have any PF number or any salary slip available and moreover the company already been shutdown. I dont have any documents available to claim my pf amount. Please advise whether i am entitled to get back the amount or the case is closed for ever.
Dear Rophy ji,

Dear Rophy ji,
You may try visiting the office in person, can inquire about the unclaimed PF funds based on your ex-Employer Company name. If they do not respond, can file an RTI..
Hi
My UAN No is 10002240xxxx.
The last I worked was with Employer B from 11/2015 to 08/2016. Recently, I could apply online for final PF and Pension settlement. The same however did not allow me to choose the Member ID/PF No. It by default was auto-filled with the last i.e. of Employer B. The claim was settled and has now been credited to my bank account too. The updated Passbook now clearly shows the contributions made by both me and the employer, and the balance which now stands as Zero after the claim.
Before that I worked with Employer A, from 03/03/2014 to 01/10/2015. The DOE for Employer A has been updated just two days back, wasn’t mentioned before (there was never an issue with the details pertaining to Employer B). The PF Passbook for this clearly shows the contributions made by both me and the employer.
My concerns are as follows:
• How can I apply separately for Employer A as well, when the form doesn’t allow me to fill or select the member ID/PF No (as I said, it automatically is auto-filled with the last one i.e. of Employer B)?? I cannot register/activate Employer A separately either, as it says this (UAN 10002240xxxx) is already activated.
• If the provision of claim is only for the last Member ID/PF No and not any other from before, and I hence need to transfer first all previous balances into the last one before claiming for final settlement, how can I do that when the ‘One Member one PF – Transfer Request’ option is not letting me do it giving me the error message “Online claim request cannot be processed as: – Present employer has not made payment in your PF account”??
Kindly suggest.
Thanks and Regards
Karan Singh
Dear Karan,
You can submit offline claim request for old EPF account (Employer A). Kindly contact them.

Hi sreekanth,
Tis is rehman.i have previuosly worked in two companies for which my UAN is same but when i logged into my UAN portal it shows two different pf numbers from my previous two companies. I am not in the service with those companies anymore. Is it possible to merge those two pf accounts to withdraw my complete pf amount?
Dear Rehman,
UAN number is unique and remains the same throughout your career.
However, when you change your job, you get a new Member-ID issued by your employer(s) and it gets linked to your existing UAN.
Yes, you can merge the two EPF accounts and can claim the consolidated balance.

Hi Sreekanth,
Good day!!
Is it really necessary to send the Form 13 signed copy to the designated employer chosen.I can see above where few ppl have not done that and can see their claim transfer status changed to “Accepted by Employer or so” under epfo portal.Can you please clarify if this is really needed otherwise what is the need of online submission of this process if we still need to send the hard copy signed?
Please revert back to me with your comments asap
Dear Rahul,
I believe that there is no need to submit the hard-copy/physical one..
No previous employment details found against this UAN.
THIS ERROR RECEIVED WHEN I DO GENERATE MEMBER ID
Dear Karan,
Kindly check if your previous EPF ac is maintained by a Pvt trust (by your ex-employer) ??
Hi sreekanth
mine is the same case.what do you mean by Pvt trust.
Dear subbarao,
Kindly note that your Organization can be an Exempted establishment or Unexempted one. A company having its own trust for provident fund is exempted from getting it self registered with the Provident Fund Authorities. So, if your employer has their own Trust then your monthly contributions get deposited with the Trust and not with the EPFO.
Check in the member portal if it has DOE(Date Of Exit) updated by your previous employer. If not make them update it and try again from the new uan for the transfer.
Hi,
My old epf account details is not showing under online pf account transfer Tab. How can I transfer my old pf into in pf account.

Im unable to initiate the transfer. For ‘Attestation through ‘ Previous/Present its saying invalid member ID or UAN. Every time its giving different error message. Even of I choose Present Employer and UAN ID, error message says ‘previous employer ID wrong’

Hi,
I am getting the following error “Present & Previous member ID’s must be different.”

Dear Siddharth,
Kindly refer to the below comment of Dibyendu..it can be applicable in your case as well…
I am getting this message:
“Present & Previous member ID’s must be different.”
I have selected “Attestation through: Previous Employer”.
Can you please help me out, what I am missing.
Dear Dibyendu ,
Is your current EPF ac (member ID) linked to same UAN.
Or do you have been allotted two UANs?
Is your Previous EPF a/c maintained by a Pvt trust of your ex-employer??
Thank you Sreekanth for replying.
I confirmed the same with my current employer, and there I found PF account from my current employer will reflect after the 2nd month payroll, maybe after that I will be able to transfer my PF.
Dear Sreekant,
I have initiated PF transfer through online last 14th, and now the status is “Accepted by employer”.
Do I need to take the printout of PDF and send it to employer ?
After how many days it will be transfered?
Dear Amit,
As per the information received by other blog readers, there is no need to submit physical doc and the process is completely online.
However you may kindly recheck this with your employer.
Dear Amit,
I went through a similar phase a couple of weeks ago.
I had raised an online transfer request for the PF account to be moved in to one member id, it took about 10 days for the status to be moved from ‘Accepted by the Employer’ to Accepted by the Field Office’.
And soon after I could see the transfer entry in my present passbook (roughly in two weeks time). The only thing I am concerned is that my EPS has not been transferred from the old PF account and I seeking some guidance from Sreekanth Reddy on this.
Cheers.
Hi Suraj,
Did u sent the signed copy of the printout to your employer?
Actually I have selected previous employer.
Hi Amit,
No I did not. No paper work done at all. Everything was done online. And yes, I too selected previous employer to transfer the PF balance in to my present employer created PF account.
Hi Sreekanth Reddy,
I had recently raised an online PF transfer request via the UAN portal under the One Member – One PF Account (Transfer Request). I see under the Track Claim Status the below update regarding the transfer request:
Claim Status: Accepted by Employer
Attestation Through: Previous Employer (XXXX Pvt Ltd)
I seek you help on the below:
I had two PF accounts under my UAN. First PF with employer A (served for 5.2 yrs and the Second PF with employer B (served for 1.2yrs). Now I have requested for the Employer A pf account to be merged in to Employer B pf account.
As mentioned above the claim status is “Accepted By Employer” and Attestation Through “Previous Employer”. In this case previous employer probably meaning Employer A.
1. How do I be sure that the PF accounts have been merged as per One Member – One PF Account?
2. What is the next step for me to withdraw the entire PF amount?
Please assist. Thank you,
Suraj Lokre
Dear suraj,
1 – Once the transfer is done, you will see ‘transfer-in’ entry in your EPF passbook.
Related article : What happens to EPS on Transfer of EPF account (or) when you switch Jobs?
2 – You can withdraw the funds provided you have been unemployed for minimum 60 days and not contributing to the EPF scheme currently.
Related article : How to withdraw EPF online?
Dear Sreekanth,
Thank you for sharing the links. It does have elaborate information pertaining to EPF transfer.
The eye opener in the appended link is that a major part of the Employer’s contribution goes towards the EPS. Thank you.
Could you please provide some explanation on my earlier asked question No.1?
Also, I do not see any changes in both the PF passbooks. They remain the same even after doing the online transfer (Not sure, if my transfer has been processed completely, hence the question no.1).
Regards,
Suraj Lokre
Dear suraj,
You can submit a grievance to the EPFO online and get Annexure-K from them, which gives details about the Transfer details.

Dear Sreekanth,
Your guidance has helped me indeed. Looks like the Transfer of PF funds in to one account i.e One Member ID has been processed. I see the status as ‘Accepted by the Field Office’ and the passbook shows the transferred PF amount.
However the previous EPS still reflects in the older PF account. How do I transfer the EPS in to my present account? Or is there a way to withdraw 100% of the EPS along with the EPF balance? Kindly assist.
Thank you,
Suraj Lokre

I am trying For PF Online Transfer as I moved out to a different company. Actually, I have seeded my Adhaar against UAN & but still I am facing this issue ..
No previous employment details found against this UAN.

Dear Arthi,
Did you share same old UAN with your new employer?
Are your details (name, DoB..) matching between old EPF ac and new EPF ac?
Is your old EPF ac maintained by a Pvt trust by your ex-employer?

Hello, i require a help regarding my Aadhar. i have linked my new number with Aadhar. My old number was registered with my Epf portal.number is changed , but when i am trying for online claim it is showing the old number only. so would like to know that do i have to contact with epfo customer care or Aadhar customer care.
Dear Tanushree,
New number? Is it UAN or EPF number or mobile number?
If it is mobile number, you can update it by login to your UAN account.
When we do online claim, the otp goes to mobile number which is updated with Aadhar. I have updated my number with Aadhar so why is it still showing the old number.
I had submitted my documents in 2015 and amount was not credited into my salary account and it got inactive which am unaware. While checking my PF balance through registered number it used to show settled. Someone suggested me on checking in a website and I came to know that the payment was settled as of 01 July 2015 and was returned. Please do suggest me whom to contact on this. Is it possible still to get this money.

Hi Sreekanth,
I’ve updated my KYC details on both of my UAN accounts and submitted UAN transfer request via online through previous employer attestation. However the previous employer is unable to approve the request as the old UAN has Father’s name and new UAN has Husband’s name. I’ve requested them to consider the latest one which is my Husband’s name to process the transfer approval. However they are getting an error at their end while processing this request. Currently I’m not working with any organisation. Please advice the best solution in this case.
Many thanks!!

Dear Chandrakala,
May I know what is the error they are getting?
Do you meant to say that you have two UANs? or two EPF accounts (Member-IDs) linked to same (one) UAN?
Hi,
I can’t able to get OTP while transfer funds from previous employer to current employer. Please guide me the option which I have to choose in transfer step-1 process. “Attestation through – present employer is right one?” then Member ID / UAN option – which member id I have to give? If I have entered UAN (My UAN is same for both the employer) and click “get details” in left side next I need to choose “Establishment” in that which one I need to choose its present or previous employer? I was tried to choose old employer can’t retrieve details of that and also OTP option is not working even though its enabled.(Its shows as Red circle with one cross inside). I need to transfer in online so please give me all these details clearly. Thank you.
Dear Thamizhpriya,
If you are getting the transfer claim processed through present employer, then attestation (submission of physical copy) needs to be done through present employer only.
Present or Previous employer? – Its your choice.
If so, kindly try opting for present employer as the option.
In case, problem persists, you may submit your grievance to the EPFO online..click here..
Yes. Thanks for your response. I am also choose as present employer for attestation.
Then Member ID / UAN option – which member id I have to give? If I have entered UAN (My UAN is same for both the employer) and click “get details” in left side next I need to choose “Establishment” in that which one I need to choose its present or previous employer? I was tried to choose old employer can’t retrieve details of that and also OTP option is not working even though its enabled.(Its shows as Red circle with one cross inside).
Please guide me for the above.
Thank you.
Dear Thamizhpriya,
You need to provide/get previous EPFO a/c (member id) issued by your previous establishment.
OTP error – can be a temporary tech issue.

I have two UAN number/account and for both account KYC is completed. Now I am trying to do online PF transfer from old UAN to new UAN , When i entered MID and click on ‘Get Details’ it shows error message “Details of previous account are different than present account. Hence claim request cannot be processed” also “Get OTP” option is also disabled.
Is it because of below reason evnthough KYC is updated for both account ,
1. Date of Exit is not entered by previous emplyment.
2.My name in old UAN is not exactly matching with current UAN? (But KYC is updated for old UAN as well long back)
Dear PARSH,
Kindly note that an employee can have only one active UAN.
Suggest you to transfer the funds from your old EPF account linked to old UAN to current EPF account.
In this process, your old UAN will be blocked automatically.
Kindly request you ex-employer to update Date of Exit.
If online transfer is not possible, you may have to get it done through offline mode.

‘As you are deputed to onsite you will not have the access.’
Please advise if this is the correct answer OR I should ask counter questions.
NOTE: I can see the PF balance in my current epf acc (for which I am getting error ) in my member passbook when I login using new/current UAN. Which might proofs that my employer is submitting PF.
Dear Chandra,
Do they mean (current employer) that you are not eligible for EPF deposits? (as per your salary arrangement)
Kindly read : How to check online if your Company has deposited EPF dues?
Hi Sreekanth,
yes they mean I’m not eligible because I am deputed at onsite and they have deposited in epf acc by the time I was working in India.
And I think the process is changed from what’s described in above link, please review.
I have raised the concern with employer and they asked for screenshot.
The issue is because of this error ‘Select details of previous account’ under Transfer Request is not appearing in my UAN portal and I can’t merge two UAN.
Dear Chandra,
Thank you, I just realized that the online procedure to check’EPF dues’ has been changed.
One can check the ‘establishment search’ at new link..
I believe that once you get the first tow issues sorted out, you will be able to transfer the funds form old EPF a/c to new EPF a/c, an employee should have only one active UAN.
I have observed that few of my blog readers have transferred the funds from old EPF ac to new EPF ac (in which no contributions have been not happening, left the service).
You may also submit your query to the EPFO online..click here…
Kindly update us the status, the info will be useful to all of us, thanks!
Hi Sreekanth,
The first two issue got sorted out but it’s still giving me same 3rd issue (Present employer has not made payment in your PF account.) Everything is find now, don’t know why it’s there. Old UAN has full up to date details, new UAN also has all the details, epf passbook is showing fund deposit till the time I was in India but still this issue. I am completely blank on what to approach to next to resolve this issue.
Dear Chandra,
You may kindly check with your employer, if it is possible to link your new EPF a/c to old UAN itself and this can trigger auto-transfer.
(just a suggestion!)

Mobile should not be of any issue.
You may take help of your current employer in this regard.
Check if DOE and Reason for exit updated in your old pf account by previous employer.
Hello – I have submitted online PF transfer through UAN self service portal. My present employer has also authorized it online and the status now read “Employer Accepted”. How long usually it takes to transfer to finish. Is Aadhaar seeding mandatory for transfers? As my Aadhar in KYC is showing still pending.
Please share your thought
Thank you !
Dear Ravi..Seeding of Aadhaar is optional for online EPF Transfer Claims.
Amrit Pramanik
Dear,Shreekanth sir,
I was working with company A, Due to sudden death of manager the company A provided salary but not shared(employee and employers both) epf and eps since December to March 2017. So i join to a new company B after 4 months and with company B i am working from April to till now. Initialy My UAN number created in company A and I had an epf account. But now company B provide a new epf account and create a new UAN which is running. Now I want to transfer amount from company A to company B..please help me,how to transfer sir?
1) May I transfer pf amount from Company A to company B’s epf account which is related to B’s UAN ?
2) May I solve this vice varsa, i.e may I transfer pf amount from company A to company B keeping under A’s UAN active( where’s B’s UAN becomes unwanted)
3) among 2 and 3 which procedure will be better?
4) In online epf amount transfer, are there any roll of previous employer and/or current employer?
Dear AMRIT,
1 – This procedure is correct. If you transfer funds from Co A to Co B, your Co A UAN will get deactivated automatically.
4 – Yes, your employer has to approve the claim.
Hi Sreekanth Reddy,
Please clarify:
Which one should be done?
1. Is New EPF Composite Form-11 or
2. Online EPF Transfer?
3. Or Both the above,
should be followed On Changing Job?
1. https://www.relakhs.com/new-epf-composite-declaration-form-11/
New EPF Composite Declaration Form-11 for automatic EPF Transfer on change of Job!
2. https://www.relakhs.com/online-epf-transfer-unified-portal/

Request to please revert back ASAP.
Looking forward to hearing from you,
Dear Ravi,
On change of job, if new Org also provides EPF scheme then new Composite Declaration form (F11) has to be used with effective from Sep 2017.
In case, your Aadhaar has not been seeded then Form 13 can be used to transfer the PF funds offline.
Respected Sir/Madam,
I am uploading KYC details like Bank, Adhar and License but SQL error is displaying so please can you guide me for next procedure.
Also I want to transfer my two epf accounts to the present EPF account is it possible?
Thank you
Dear Suresh,
Suggest you to try submitting through a different web browser during off peak time.
“Kindly note that only one transfer request against the previous member ID (EPF a/c) can be accepted. (In case, you have multiple old EPF accounts then you can consolidate your EPF accounts using – ‘One Employee – One EPF account‘ facility.)”
Hi,
I am trying to submit PF transfer form online using the above process, but GET OTP is disabled in step 2. I have updated aadhar number and KYC is approved under KYC Tab, also no error got displayed on the form.
Dear SM… May be a technical issue.
Are the pre-requisites as mentioned in the above article have been met?
You may submit your grievnance to the EPFO online …
You may also consider for an offline Transfer request through new Form 11 through current employer (or) through Form 13 via ex-employer.
Thanks for the response. As per above prerequisite, DOE and exit reason is not mentioned on the Unified portal so could it be one of the reasons for OTP disabled? If yes then how it can get it updated.
Dear SM.. You need to request your ex-employer to update the DoE details.
Dear,Shreekanth sir,

Hi Sreekanth,
First of all thank you for help, I already asked you question in same forum.
I have 3 EPF account(2inactive,1Active)
1st account linked to old UAN,
2nd account not linked to any UAN,
3rd account linked to new UAN which is Active.
Queries:
1.By above mentioned process is it possible to merged my 1st,2nd account to 3rd active account/UAN?
2.Also Can i transfer pf amount in this case ?
3.My name is not matching with UAN database(facing KYC problem), so how much time will take to update name from date of submission of ‘Joint Declaration Form’
Dear Parsh,
1 – Yes. You can consolidate the old accounts to new a.c,
2 – yes.
3 – For name correction, you need to submit a joint declaration along with your employer to the EPFO (contact your employer, they will assist you), no time-line has been defined, but may take 2 to 4 weeks I guess..
Dear Shreekanth,
I was working with company A , its shut down in AUG 2016.Then i joined company B and i worked there for 2 months.After that joined new company C they created new UAN number. Can you please help me out how can i transfer the amount from company A to B to C , A & B has same UAN but not transferred A to B.
Dear VINNY,

Hi Sreekanth,
I have 2 doubts
1) I want to transfer my pf amount from ex-employer TCS which holds a trust account. Can I follow the above procedure or is there any other way to transfer from trust account.
2) My bank IFSC is wrongly updated, in-spite of multiple requests its not updated by my employer. Does wrong IFSC code affect in any sense for PF Transfer.
Dear Abhinay,
1 – I think the process should be the same.
2 – Yes, it will affect. Is your current employer not supportive?
I resigned from my previous company 2 months back.. Currently I am not working and will join my new company by this month end. That is the reason I spoke to my ex-employer.
HI,
i am trying to transfer my earlier PF account money to my new PF account however it gives an error saying ” previous account details are not same as current ” .. unable to get this through .. any pointers ?
Dear Dhwani…Mostly your personal details associated with old EPF a/c might not be matching with your new/current EPF account. Kindly cross-check.
Hi Good evening

but not message and more informations in my profile …………….
sir/madam please help me …….
and next step
Dear suryasree .. If the EPFO has received your application, they will process it within 10 to 14 days.
Hi Sri, what is the time taken for this whole process
Dear Yuvaraj ..as far as I know, the time-line is around 10 days (max) for online claims..
Hi,
TO receive my pf amount i have applied through epfo portal and now it says claim settled after 30 days. but i have not received in my account.
can u please help me what is the next step. Im not working anywhere now.
Dear bhuvana ..You may receive the amount to your bank account in 2-3 days.
I got the new UAN number in current employer , now i want to transfer previous PF amount in current PF account,
Queries:
1.How to proceed if I have two UAN?
2.I logged in on portal with current UAN, but unable to complete KYC as details are mismatch with PAN/ADHAAR details. Is KYC is compulsory?
3.Current UAN –> ‘Service History’ shows only Current employer details , how shall i proceed for pf transfer from previous PF/UAN account?
Dear Parsh,
Yes, KYC details are mandatory and they need to be verified by your employer. You also need to verify/link aadhaar number.
If you can not submit online transfer claim, you may do the transfer offline and during the process, your old UAN will get deactivated.

Hi Sreekanth garu,
Recently, EPFO has given option for higher pension. The pension payable under EPS has been capped to a salary of Rs15,000 since 2014. Prior to 2014, it was Rs6,500. So under the old salary limit, the pension comes to around Rs3500 and a little over Rs7000 under the new ceiling.
The supreme court order gives scope for an employee to get pension according to a higher salary. In case the employer begins contributing on higher salary from the day the employee’s pay surpasses upper limit of Rs6,500, even pension has to be paid as per actual pay.
Kindly enlighten us by writing an article on “Higher Pension” if you are aware of it. Is it beneficial to opt for higher pension option or not.?
Thank you.
Dear Sanjay,
Yes, I think sometime back, I too have read about this topic in news reports.
If an youngster is planning for retirement then I believe that he/she has to think beyond PF, to accumulate desired Retirement corpus.
Dear Sreekanth garu,
Thanks for the quick reply.
You mean to say that I should not opt for Higher pension option. Keep money in EPF account instead of diverting it to EPS.? Pls clarify.
Dear Sanjay,
You may consider other investment options (if for long term) that can beat inflation and give you good real rate of return.
Kindly read :
List of best investment options
What is real rate of return?
Dear Sreekanth garu,
Thanks for your valuable suggestion.
I will definitely invest for long term as per your suggestion. Already taken Term Plan, Accidental Policy, started ELSS, surrendered traditional policies as per your valuable suggestions and posts.
But the thing here is, I am in PSU (Public Sector Unit) where EPF Deduction is little high compared to private employees due to Basic plus DA. Other incentives are very low for us. We have no choice to get rid of EPF deduction. Employer share will also be added to this as you know.
Previously, 8.33% of Rs.15,000/- i.e. Rs.1,250/- (fixed) used to be deducted from the employer share and corresponding Pension was Rs.7,000/-. Remaining share of employer will be added EPF. If the “Basic + DA” is Rs.50,000/- then 12% (Rs.6,000/-) will be deducted from our salary. Employer will add Rs.1,250/- to EPS (Pension) and Rs.4,750/- to EPF which can be withdrawn anytime under some rules.
With recent order from Supreme Court, we can give the option to deduct 8.33% of whole “Basic + DA” and remaining share of employer will be added to EPF. If “Basic + DA” is Rs.50,000/- then 12% (Rs.6,000/-) will be deducted from our salary. Employer will deduct 8.33% of “Basic + DA” i.e. Rs.4,165/- (mostly vary quarterly) to EPS (Pension) and remaining Rs.1,835/- to EPF.
We have to either opt for either Higher Pension or simply not to opt. In this regard, kindly suggest which would be a better option among both the options.
Dear Sanjay,
As suggested in my previous comments, you may contribute the minimum required amount to EPF/EPS, and try to invest in other investment avenues which can beat inflation rate over longer period.
Hi, I followed all the steps. I am able to select the UAN details, however when I enter OTP received , it shows : “Something went wrong!!! Please try again later!!!”
Could you suggest me any possible work around for this ?
Dear Rakhi ..May be a tech issue..kindly try after sometime or submit grievance online..click here..
I am also getting the same error. When I put the OTP, it shows me , something went wrong error.
How to get rid of this?
Dear Subrat.. You may kindly submit online grievance..click here..
As suggested, I have tried to submit grievance, however, the grievance itself is not getting submitted. Please help.

When I enter UAN number, it gives error like ‘Previous employer detail not found for this UAN number’.my old pf & new pf number link one UAN
What should I do now, I do not understand how to proceed? Can you please let me know?
Dear LAKSHMI.. Even few other blog readers have raised this concern..looks like a tech issue. You may submit your grievance online to the EPFO..click here..

Dear Meeta ..Are the two Member-IDs linked to same UAN? Or Have you been allotted with two UANs?
When I try to do it via online after entering OTP, I get an error that “something went wrong!!! Please try again later!!!. I tried few times but no luck. I am not sure what went wrong. Do you have any idea how to resolve this?
Hi Tarun,
I am getting the same error. Have you been able to overcome this issue. Please suggest.
Hi Rasool,
Yes. I have given for offline transfer to do. It’s because my previous employer PF was Trust and current employer is EPF. We can not transfer between Trust & EPF managed PF via online. Please check with your current employer for an offline transfer.
Thanks Tarun for your answer.
Now i understand. My previous employer PF is also with Trust.
Thanks!
Hi,
Prerequisite which you have mentioned in the above blog “You should seed your Bank account & Bank IFSC Code details to your UAN (Universal Account Number). These KYC details should have been verified by your employer.”
Here which UAN you are talking about? Is it one which Old employer has provided me or is it the new one which is provided by my new Employer.
To transfer PF online through which UAN(OLD or NEW) I should login and follow the above steps ?
Kindly help me out to complete this process as I am struggling with it from past 6 months.
Thanks and Regards
Abhijit
Dear Abhijit,
An employee should have only one active UAN.
You may login with your new UAN and submit the transfer request, during the process the EPFO will deactivate your old UAN (if any).
Read : Two UANs allotted? How to blog old UAN?
Dear Sreekanth,
Thanks for your kind reply, it’s really very helpful post.
Still I have some questions. It will be better if you give reply for it. As other than this blog there is no information on internet for latest portal.
Should I have to activate my new UAN first and then follow the above steps as there in your blog?
Also should I have to inform my previous organization to put date of exit in portal?
Thanks and Regards,
Abhijit Thorat
Dear Abhijit,
If you have not been given new UAN then you may use old UAN only.
In case your new employer has allotted you a new UAN, then you may login with that and then submit transfer request.
Yes, you need to request your ex-employer to update DoE .
Hi Sreekanth,
I have the same issue. KYC for both UAN is done. Both PF accounts are with epfo. when submitting transfer claim, it is shows error “Something went wrong!!! Please try again later!!!”. I am trying since last 1 month but every time i see same error. I have also submitted to grievance but they don’t even bother to reply. Please suggest.
Thanks & Regards,
Ravindra Singh
Dear Ravindra ..I am not sure what could be the reason!
Whether your personal details in both EPF accounts match?
You may check with your current employer also. Can try for offline transfer.

Hi ,
My Name matches with the previous and present employer, but , DOJ and DOE is not available for my previous employer , I am not able to initiate transfer , getting error message , Previous and present details does not match, how to proceeed further.
Thanks
Bala
Dear Bala..You may have to kindly contact your ex-employer..
Will you please let me know the formalities for correction of name e.g. My full name is” PRADEEP KUMAR ANWAR” , but in the PF Account it is” PRADEEP KUMAR”..
Dear Pradeep,
You need to submit name change request to your employer, they will then forward it to the EFPO.
You may kindly go through this circular..
could you please guide me in filling register grievance in EPF portal as guided in other blog page of yours?
Should I upload any PDF out right there?
When I try this, the website says old and new PF details are not matching. There is no additional info. How to proceed from this point?
Dear Raju..Mostly, your personal details (like name, DoB etc) might not be matching between old EPF account and new one.
You may get them edited through your current employer.
I have the old EPF number while working some where around 2007, I failed to claim EPF from my previous employer due to critical illness. Could you guide me in getting universal account number? Should I approach my previous employer for generation of UAN?
Dear Mahesh ..Are you currently working and contributing to EPF scheme?
Your old EPF account would have become inopeartive..You may try using Inoperative EPF a/c helpdesk and transfer to your new EPF account (if any).
You may also try doing the transfer online as suggested in the above article.
Dear Sri, Not EPF as these days NPS has been contributed. I tried with the help desk, but couldn’t succeed. I am not getting any reference number even after several attempts. Is there any other way out? help please. You have mentioned about addressing to grievance cell, should I include any PDF? My previous employer will help me though in fetching yet they need the proper direction. Hence guide please.
Dear Mahesh,
You may submit your grievance to the EPF online..click here..
And your employer may have the required details right?? You may submit offline withdrawal form through them.
Certainly will do Sri, Could you help me to find out Form 10 C, Form 19 in EPFO website? Please, as my previous employer is asking me so…
Dear Mahesh ..You may submit new Composite Claim Form..
Thanks will try shree
Hi Sree,
When i am trying to submit the request online after entering OTP, it says perameter form tempered.
What is this.
Please advise.
Dear Adesh ..Can be a temporary tech issue, kindly try again!
