Solution: As Per Multiple Payment Member Service is Overlapping On The Other Estt in PF Claim

If your PF claim is rejected due to the following message that “AS PER MULTIPLE PAYMENT MEMBER SERVICE IS OVERLAPPING ON THE OTHER ESTT” then it means that your date of exit or date of joining is wrongly entered either in the previous company of yours or in present company. Some time new employers update your new date of joining before your exit date in your previous company.

For example, you have worked in a company from 1 Jan 2020 to 30 Jun 2020 and joined another company on 1 July 2020. So your new date of joining a new company is 1 July 2020.

But if the new employer adds your date of joining as 1Jun 2020 then your claim will be rejected for the above reason. At the same, if the old employer updates your date of exit by mistakenly as 30 July 2020 then also your claim will be rejected.

The Solution for this problem is you have to correct the wrong date of joining or wrong date of exit because EPFO doesn’t allow you to contribute for the EPF from Two companies at the same time.

(Recently EPFO added an option to update the date of exit of employees themselves in the UAN member portal without the help of the employer, so some times EPF members are mistakenly updating their date of exit.)

You cannot correct your date of exit or date of joining online, you need to submit PF joint declaration form to your regional EPF office to correct your details, after correction you can reclaim your PF amount.

    • You have to transfer yoru PF offline to your latest PF account, after transfer you can withdraw total PF.
      (Or) If there is wrong DOJ or DOE, you have to correct them.

  6. Hi,
    I had joined the Company A on March’23. In April.23 i Got good offer from Company B. I joined Company B but left in a couple of days since company A has given same offer. But Company B intentionally transferred some amount as salary in the month of May due to this PF amount is showing in my account. Company B still did not provide Exit Date. Due to this Overlapping is happening between company A and Company B.
    How i can correct this?
    Can we put Date of Exit with our own?

    • You can update your date of exit yourself.
      But incase your service periods are overlapping in both companies, it will create problem in transferring your PF amount to company B.
      To correct your date of joining by submitting PF joint declaration form to your PF office.

  7. Hello,
    my claim got rejected because of wrong joining date of one of my previous company (year 2014) and my employer also closed what can i do now?

  8. Hi Rajesh,

    I worked in company A for 3 months and joined company B and sent the resignation to company A on the day of joining company B, therefore company A had put the date of exit as 25th Dec, 2019 while date of joining company B is 25th Nov, 2019 (means 1 month overlap).

    I applied for pf transfer from A to B company and they accepted and transferred it from A to B. In between, I also withdrawn some advance and it also got accepted in company B regional pf office.

    Now, after working for company B (for 3 years), I’ve joined company C and raised a request for pf transfer from B to C company, but it got rejected stating overlap between A and B company.

    Now my entire pf (A&B) is in company B pf account and company C pf account is also started.

    I have below questions now,

    1. Instead of transferring from B to C, if I choose withdraw from B, then will it affect any future pf transfers and claims (C onwards)?

    2. If I treat company C pf as fresh start (and decide not to transfer from B to C), then will it affect on retirement pensions?

    3. What is the best way of resolving this issue?

    Thanks

    Anuj

    • You cannot do this as the claim will be based on Single UAN. Also claim can be made only if you are not in work, now being in Company C, you will not be entitled to claim in total. Just provide a Joint declaration signed by old employer with a letter mentioning a mistake happened. Attach your Aadhar & any proof for working with that employer. Submit to PF office, it may take about 30-45 days to correct. Later apply for transfer.

    • Hii Vikram, the same issue happened with me as well. Today only it got rejected by field officer as my first employer DOE is overlapping with the 2nd employer DOJ and I have already transferred my 1st employer PF to 2nd Employer account now when I am trying to transfer 2nd Employer pf account to 4th employer account it is getting rejected. I have sent a mail to my 1st employer to correct the DOE. Let’s see what they reply with. Once I get a proper resolution I will let you know

  12. Hi,

    Can anyone please guide me. I ha e an overlapping issue in my organization. I joined a company but left it because I didn’t like their policy for covid they were calling office after very first lockdown and in the mean time I got an offer from an MNC so I joined them. So my exit date of previous company is 01-May-2020 and my current joining date is 30-Apr-2020. Two days overlap. So can anyone please guide me how to get this correct as my previous employer will not coordinate on this matter.

  13. Hi,

    My previous employer “Date of Exit” and new employer “Date of Joining” are same i.e. Sept 30th 2022.

    I signed form 13 and asked previous employer to transfer the PF. But they mentioned as DOE and DOJ are same, they cannot transfer it. They are asking to update DOJ of my new employer.

    How can I transfer PF without changing DOE or DOJ ?
    Will this have impact at the time of withdrawal at retirement ?

    Regards,
    Pravin

    • It is not possible to change PF without changing DOE or DOJ in your case.
      It is better to change your DOE or DOJ by submitting PF joint declaration form to your PF office along with a request letter.
      Otherwise, your first company’s PF amount will remain in it. (You can withdraw only a portion of the PF advance, but not the entire amount)

      Reply
      • Hi Rajesh,

        Let’s say both my previous and current employer denies to change DOE or DOJ through declaration form.

        What would be the impact in future ? I will not be able claim any amount ? Not even the amount that i invest by working in future ?

        Or just my previous company’s PF amount ?

        How can i contact you one to one ? or any other contact person where I can get more details on this issue ?

        • It doesn’t affect your current and future companies’ PF amounts. You can transfer/withdraw them later.
          But unnecessarily you will waste your first company’s PF contribution & service.
          If your employers are not helping you with this issue, register a complaint on the EPF grievance portal, and they will give a solution.

    • If the PF is credited to that account, it has to be transferred to your latest PF accounts in an offline process.
      For that you have to submit form 13 to your current PF office.

  16. Hi,

    I requested my PF transfer request, but request got rejected by PF officer with below reason.
    OLD ESTABLISHMENT EXIT DATE OVERLAPS WITH NEW ESTABLISHMENTS JOINING DATE.

    I know reason of rejection. As my Previous company exit date is 25th July 2021 and current company joining date is 3 July 2021. Reason of the overlapping with exit date with joining date is my previous company after joining month due to project unavailability they told me leave with given 15 days grace duration which is till 25th July 2021. By that time I got another job by 3rd July 2021.

    Now how can I resolve this issue, please guide me ?

  17. Hi All,
    I joined a company on 20th Sep 2018, on the same day few of the policies I did not Like, Next day only I wrote email to company stating that I am not continuing service in your company. But mistakenly they kept my employment active till 24th Dec 2018 and created member ID in EPFO. Now when I am getting service overlapped issue. I have all mails as a proof as well.. which went from my side and they also excepted that I have not reported from the 1st day, somewhere its their mistake to keep my employment active. But still that company is not ready to change my Date of Exit. If any one can help me to letting me know how can I get my DOE corrected that will be a great help friend.
