Dear All,
I resigned from Company B in Dec 2006. Actually, I left Company A in Aug 06 and joined Company B in Sep 06. However, I did not like the environment, and my health was deteriorating. I discussed my situation with HR and my Manager, and they accepted my resignation. When I requested a release letter and an Experience letter, they only sent me the final settlement amount. I had received a relocation amount when I joined Company B, which I was supposed to repay if I left before completing one year, as per the offer letter. I have not repaid anything to the company and have not received any letters. I am currently working abroad. My questions are:
1) I want to withdraw my PF (I have already transferred my Company B PF to a new account in Company A, and I only have the PF account number). Form 19 requires the employer's signature; if the employer refuses to sign, what should I do? Can the employer withhold the PF amount?
2) Will I receive the full PF amount (employee and employer contributions)? Is there any issue with withdrawing after a year?
3) Can you guide me through the procedure?
4) Can the employer withhold my Form 16 & TDS in the case of non Full & Final settlement?
I apologize for the numerous questions. Your assistance is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
DK
