Hello Team, I resigned from my company on November 24, 2025. However, my employer incorrectly marked my exit date as January 12, 2024. I joined a new company on November 29, 2023. Due to this discrepancy, there is an issue of dual employment showing in my EPFO account. Even after discussing this issue with my employer, they stated that this cannot be corrected. Interestingly, they marked my attendance even on days when I did not attend the office or perform any work. This error has resulted in significant problems for me as I have been rejected from two MNCs during the background verification process. I have the email of the resignation I sent, but the dates on my relieving letter and experience certificate are incorrect. I am seeking advice on this issue since no one is paying heed to my concerns. Please guide me on how to rectify this situation.
