Navigating PF Account Decisions: Should I Transfer or Withdraw After Leaving My Job?

Hi All, I left my last organization on March 10 after serving for 11 years. I haven't withdrawn or transferred the PF account yet. My questions are:

1. Should I transfer the old PF account balance to my new PF account, or should I withdraw the amount?

2. If you suggest transferring, is there a time limit for completing the transfer?

Any help would be appreciated.

TIA, Kris

You can access the Provident Fund accumulation and obtain a scheme certificate for your pension scheme. Surrender this certificate to the PF office to link it with your existing pension account. This will enable you to receive the seniority pension upon reaching retirement age. Alternatively, you can transfer the amount to your existing account by submitting transfer form 13 (R).
