Understanding Provident Fund Forms: How Do You Fill Them Out?

Can anybody tell me about the different types of PF forms and how to fill out this form?

Hi Kanchan,

In this site, somebody has asked the same questions, so you can do one thing. In the search option, type "PF" and see how much information you get.

Hi Kanchan,

You need to fill Form 13 if you want to transfer your PF to the new organization or Form 19 if you want a withdrawal of the total amount. Submit both the forms with the previous employer.

Form 12: A monthly return, Form 5: new joiners, Form 10: details of resignations during the month, Form 6A: annual return, Form 3A: annual return of individuals. For withdrawals, Form 9 and Form 10 are required. Hope this information will help you.

We were new to registering in EPF. All the challans are created on the E-sewa portal, but I want to know which form needs to be filled for all employees registering in EPF for the first time.
