Yes, it is possible to transfer your Pension Fund from your previous employer to your current employer. Here are the steps you can follow:

1. Check Eligibility:
- Ensure that you have completed at least 10 years of service, as per the Employee Provident Fund Organization (EPFO) rules, to be eligible for pension benefits.
- If you meet the eligibility criteria, you can proceed with the transfer process.

2. Transfer Process:
- Obtain Form 13 (Revised) from the EPFO website or your current employer.
- Fill out the form with accurate details including your previous employer's details, PF account number, and service details.
- Submit the form to your current employer for attestation.
- Your current employer will forward the form to the EPFO for further processing.
- The EPFO will verify the details and initiate the transfer of your Pension Fund to your current account.

3. Tracking the Transfer:
- You can track the status of your transfer request online through the EPFO portal using your Universal Account Number (UAN).
- Once the transfer is completed, the pension amount associated with your PF account will also be transferred to your current account.

By following these steps and ensuring all necessary documentation is in order, you can successfully transfer your Pension Fund from your previous employer to your current employer.
