Your E.P.F. account will remain Idle for the period in during which you and employer is not contributing towards your E.P.F. Account. and as per act this period will be treated as NON - CONTRIBUTORY PERIOD.
Yes the same may be activated by two years if you start to contribute towards in your existing account.
Moreover, In principal , an employee shall be covered from day one of his employement there is no question of probation or regular etc., under EPF & MP Act - 1952
Surprisingly your company has two years probation period which is neither in practice nor feasible or ethical, rather a malpractice. Even you are in probation your employer is under obligation to enroll you as a member of e.P.f. other wise it will be a voilation of Act.
if your employer covers you as a member of E.P.F. than only you can transfer your previous accumulation of P.F. A/c. given by your last employer (Fill form 13 and process it through your existing employer).
and Last option with you to withdraw the accumulation of your p.f. by filling Form 10C (for Pension Fund if previous contribution less than 10 years) and Form 19 (For P.F. Accumulations).
hope it will clarify our doubts.
