Understanding PF Transfer Rules: Pension Withdrawal and Form 13 Requirements

Dear Friends,

If one has completed 3 months in an organization, can he transfer his PF amount to the new organization's PF account?

Dear Arjun,

Anyone can transfer their PF amount, whatever is accumulated with the previous company. He/she can perform the task even on the first day too. The only thing to be clear about is that he/she must have a new PF number in the current organization when fulfilling Form 13, which is mandatory for PF transfer cases. If you have any doubts, please share.

Thank you.

In case the service is less than 6 months, contributions towards the pension cannot be withdrawn, so it is advisable to transfer the PF amount.
