Confused About Changing Bank Details on PF Withdrawal Forms in Bangalore? Need Guidance!

Hi Friends,

Please let me know the correct process to change the bank account details after submitting the PF withdrawal forms to the PF office in Bangalore (KR Puram). I have gone through the forum for similar issues, once I read that a "PF Reauthorization Form" needs to be used, and another post indicated that there is no such thing; hence, I am confused.

FYI, the PF status is still in process, and the money has not been transferred to the account.

Thanks & Regards,
Rumana Naaz

You need to contact the concerned officer in the PF department to make the necessary changes. This change also requires authorization from your previous employer.

Dear Rumana Naaz,

Kindly take the passbook of your bank and obtain the necessary authorization. Please submit the same at the PF Office. Do not hand it over at the entrance where they accept the forms. Instead, inquire about your section and provide it to the case worker for prompt processing.

If you need any clarifications, feel free to contact me.

Cheers
