How Do I Rejoin an Employee to PF Using Their Old Account After a Break?

Vasantha Kumari raj
One of our employees resigned from her job in December 2012. We marked her exit in the PF ECR file. She is rejoining on 7-2-2013. Kindly guide me on how to rejoin her into the PF using her old PF account.

I advise you to issue a new PF number with the new join date. Deduct PF on the joining date. You can do one thing: fill up a withdrawal form and withdraw PF, or fill Form 13 for a transfer from the old account to the new account.

Thank you,

Hope she has not withdrawn the PF so far. On rejoining, you can give the same (old) PF number to her and process her joining with Form 5 marked with the old PF number allotted to her. The gap of two months will be treated as a non-contributory period.

If somebody is leaving the company today and then rejoining after the next 4 months, and again left... So how many times can a person join and leave maximum to keep the same UAN?
