If your PF claim status shows payment under process then it means your application is being verified by the EPFO, after verification, you will receive a message from EPFO that your claim has been settled and payment sent via NEFT. Remember the maximum time set by EPFO fo claim settlement is 20 days, so in any one of these 20 days, you will get your PF amount.
Once you receive this message then within 1 or 2 days your PF amount will be credited into your bank account.
EPF claim status under process meaning
The meaning of EPF claim status under process is your claim is under review at PF office i.e your PF claim request received to your PF office and it is under process by EPF officers.
After checking the claim request EPFO will send your PF money to your bank account through NEFT (National Electronic Fund Transfer).
EPF members who apply for full PF, PF advance, and PF transfer by using forms like form19, 10C, 31, and transfer form 13 will see this message in their PF claim status.
There are a total of three types of messages you will be seen in the PF claim status website they are 1. PF claim status under process 2. claim settled and payment sent via NEFT and 3. claim is rejected (if is there any problem in your PF claim otherwise your claim will be approved.)
When EPFO makes payment through NEFT then you will see the below message in your PF claim status.

PF claim status under process for form 19 & 10C
We use form 19 to claim PF contributions of employee and employer (12% + 3.67%) and form 10c to claim pension amount (8.33%). It is common to see PF claim status is under process for forms like 19 and 10C. If everything is fine and bank account details are correct then soon your PF amount will credit into your bank account without any problem.
PF claim status under process for form 31
Form 31 is PF advance claim form, EPF members can get some amount as PF advance while working in the job by using this form. The maximum time to settle PF claims is 20 days. If you applied for PF advance with reasons like the outbreak of pandemic COVID 19 or illness then within 1 or 2 weeks your PF claim status will settle and you will receive the advance amount in your bank account.
PF transfer claim status under process
Unlike PF withdrawal request, for PF transfer settlements you need your present or previous employer attestation. So first your PF transfer request will go to your previous employer or present employer-based on our choice while applying for PF transfer.
After their approval only your transfer request will be sent to your regional PF office. In the meantime, your claim status will be seen as pending at the employer for attestation and pending at filed office respectively.

But some times even after updation of claim status temporarily it will not be visible to you. In that case, you don’t need to worry about, soon the claim status will be updated.
How many days it will take to get the PF amount
The maximum time to get the PF amount to get into your bank account is 20 days, if your PF claim doesn’t settle within 20 days then you need to raise a grievance at PF portal to know why your PF claim is not settled and pending. Once you raise a complaint then within 24 to 48 working yours you will get an email from EPFO.
Why PF claim is rejected
There are so many reasons for rejection of the PF claim, these reasons change from one EPF member to another EPF member. For example, some claims will be rejected due to not uploading cancelled cheques or bank passbooks and some will be rejected due to non-submission of form 15G and some may due to the digital signature problems of employers.
