Hello,
I had one doubt. I changed my company, and the earlier company did not bifurcate the pension amount from the PF. I enquired at the PF office and was told that the company needs to submit three documents:
1) Letterhead
2) Form 3A
3) Indemnity bond
My doubt is:
On a Rs. 100 stamp paper, if we make an indemnity bond, is it fine? Also, the stamp paper is issued with a name only. So whose name should I put?
Also, if anyone has faced this kind of problem, is the issue resolved after submitting the documents?
Thanks

Indemnity Bond to be on Rs. 110/- Stamp Paper duly Notarised after your signatures.
Usually, this correction takes 3-4 months.
Also, submit your copy of Aadhar, PAN, Form 5, and Form 10 (All attested by your employer).

Thanks, Abhishek. I have not heard of 110. It is usually in denominations of 50 or 100. Is this some special kind of stamp paper? Also, I wanted to ask, if an employee suffers with no fault of his own, meaning pension has not been deducted from the employer's side, is there no remedy without involving the employer? Can the PF department make this rectification directly?
Furthermore, why does it take so long? They did not mention to me about forms other than 3A.
Thanks

In this case, most of the time, employees fill in wrong information at the time of joining in PF Form 11 due to unawareness. Based on the declarations in Form 11, the employer moves ahead for EPS or No EPS.
There is no remedy without the involvement of your employer, as the employer will attest all the documents and give a declaration on letterhead stating the facts. In case of any fraudulent payment occurring in this regard, the employer will be responsible for the same. Similarly, the employee also gives an Indemnity Bond for the same purpose.
Normally, Indemnity Bonds are on Rs. 110/- Stamp Papers in most of the states. But in case Rs. 110/- stamp paper is not available in your state, then you can use Rs. 100/- as well.
Maybe the PF Office may not have informed you about the other documents, as it is common. It is advised to submit the additional documents as mentioned above so that no delay or rejection may occur by the PF Officials.
As the correction involves internal approvals at various levels and involves long calculations depending on your service and adjustments of any withdrawal, it usually takes 3-4 months. Also, you have to do follow-ups.

Hello,
The company is not cooperating at all. Hence, I have decided to handle the indemnity bond myself. After that, I will obtain the stamp from the company along with the required documents.
Is it fine for an employee to submit the documents to the PF office? Also, what precautions should be taken, such as obtaining a signature on a Xerox copy as proof of submission?

While filling out the employment form, I filled in the following:
- Whether earlier a member of Provident Fund Scheme 1952 - I answered yes
- Whether earlier a member of Employees' Pension Scheme 1995 - I answered no
Is it possible to have the above scenario?
In what cases could it be the same, and when could it differ?
