What to do if Online PF Withdrawal Claim Rejected

There are mainly Two reasons for rejection of online PF claims of the employees. They are incorrect bank account details and the second one is the non submission of PF form 15G or PAN for claims more than 50000 Rs in below 5yrs of service.

Online EPF Claim Rejection Reasons

Two main reasons for rejection of online PF claims

  • Incorrect bank account details
  • Non-submission of form 15G (For online claims not linking PAN)

When compared with offline EPF claims there is less possibility for rejection of online claims. Because the online claim process is possible only when all the details of employees are correct. Otherwise, they can’t able to link their Aadhar number and other KYC details with UAN number.

When UAN is not linked with KYC then it is not possible to claim PF online. So in maximum cases, online claims don’t get rejected. As we discussed earlier there are only Two reasons for not getting PF claim online, they are incorrect bank account details and not linking PAN.

Whenever your PF claim amount is more than 50000 Rs and when you are withdrawing it in less than 5yrs of service then you need to link your PAN with UAN, otherwise tax will deduct from your claim amount. In order to prevent tax deduction, EPFO rejects your claim. So, in this case, link your PAN with your UAN.

In that case, you need correct your bank account details and again apply for EPF claim.
