Is There a Minimum Balance Required in Your PF Account for Withdrawal?

Hi Seniors,

Is it necessary that there should be a specific amount in your PF account before you can withdraw it?

Dear Snel,

There is no specific rule regarding the amount for withdrawing the PF. However, ensure that all other parameters are fulfilled before submitting the withdrawal forms.

I have filled the PF form but have received a letter from the PF office that my amount is less and henceforth cannot withdraw it.

Minimum 6 months' contribution should be there to withdraw employer PF. Please check.

Dear Snel,

Please check with the PF officials regarding the exact reason for your rejection. Are you inquiring about withdrawal or taking an advance amount? Which forms have you submitted? Is it Form 19 and 10(c) or Form 31?

Thanks,

If you leave the job before the six-month period, you can only withdraw the PF amount, not the pension amount. The amount in your PF account does not matter.
