How to Claim a Provident Fund After a Loved One's Death Without a Nomination?

AmithS
Claim for the Withdrawal of Provident Fund Accumulation

On the death of a member, if a valid nomination subsists, then the nominee can claim the Provident Fund. If no nomination exists, then family member(s) of the deceased member can claim, duly supported by a list of surviving family members (as on the date of death of the member). This list should be furnished by the last employer or Mamlatdar/Tehsildar or executive magistrate, indicating complete particulars such as name, relationship with the deceased member, age, and marital status in the case of parents, and whether they are dependent or not.

If any family member is a minor, the claim should be made by the guardian of the minor. If both (a) and (b) above are not applicable, the claim should be made by the legal heir(s) of the deceased member, duly supported by a legal heirship certificate.
