EPFO's move to launch the PF Transfer Claims Interface under the Unified Portal aims to streamline and simplify the process for members and employers. Here's a practical guide on how members and employers can navigate the online PF transfer request system:
🔵 Member Interface Process:
1. Members with seeded Aadhaar and bank details to their UAN can initiate PF transfer requests online.
2. Fill in the transfer request on the Member Interface.
3. Download the Form 13, sign it, and upload it within ten days of submitting the transfer request.
4. Ensure all details are accurately filled to expedite the transfer process.
🔵 Employer Interface Process:
1. Employers receive the signed Form 13 from the member.
2. Digitally approve the transfer request using the authorized personnel's digital signature.
3. For transfers submitted post 1st March 2017, attest the signed copy of the transfer claim PDF (Form 13) and send it to the EPFO Field Office for processing.
4. Verify new joiners, previous employment details, and KYC information using the UAN/Member ID to maintain accurate records.
🔵 Verification and UAN Allocation:
1. EPFO emphasizes that a member should have only one UAN throughout their employment history across various establishments.
2. Employers should ensure that new joiners are not assigned a new UAN if they already have one, reducing UAN duplication issues.
By following these steps and guidelines, members and employers can effectively manage PF transfers and ensure compliance with EPFO regulations.
