  1. This EPFO account website and procedures are all wrong and playing with employees. If an employee lost his job and wanted to withdraw his PF, Processes makes him to see hell with employers and EPF field officers. The one who benefits with these processes are only the online brokers who have contacts in offices. There is nothing to be done for a common man with this damn worst EPFO maintanance.
    PF became a big drama in India now.

    • You need to correct this by submitting PF joint declaration form along with a written request letter to your PF office.
      (the letter and joint declaration form should be attested by your employer).
      It the respective employer doesn’t respond, then register a complaint on the EPF grievance portal.

    • You don’t need to deactivate it, just continue with your last UAN number in all your future jobs.
      If you have any PF balances in your old UANs then transfer them to your latest UAN.

  8. Hello, I have initiate the PF transfer request, meanwhile the date of reliving was identified wrong and same has been corrected. Simultaneously the PF transfer was already initiated and same has been approved by employer as well as field office. Now how to cancel this request and re initiate the transfer request.

    Reply
    • If PF amount not transferred to your new PF account then, you need to raise a grievance at PF portal to cancel the transfer claim request.
      If it is already transferred then check whether full PF amount transferred or not, if full PF amount transferred then submit PF joint declaration form to PF office to correct wrong date of exit.
