EPFO - Could anyone suggest what action needs to be done to rectify the DOB in scheme certificate?

Greetings Everyone,

Writing this on behalf of my father, who was earlier working for a factory which was closed 10 years ago.

My father applied for the pension and PF amount using scheme certificate.

We received a SMS the amount will be dispatched shortly. However as on 9.21 dad received a call stating his DOB isn't matching with the proof of documents submitted.

This was a fault from the old companies end where they entered wrong DOB of birth.

Since there is a error in DOB the application is rejected.

Could anyone suggest what action needs to be done to rectify the DOB in scheme certificate?

as per my Knowledge if you have valid DOB Proof like ( School Certificate, Birth certificate & passport)
then you fill Joint Declaration Form attached AAdhar, Pan & DOB Prof with your signature & any of Govt. Gazetted officer signature( Stamp) & Submit EPFO office

Gurupada,

The factory closed 10 years ago
So I think I joint declaration is not possible in his case.
Is there any other way you can suggest to them?

Hi,

Please contact respective PF office correct DOB proof and also a submit a self declaration ( notary attested they might ask). They will be able to resolve the issue.

concern with relevant PF office. You can submit bank Manager/Labour officer signature at Joint declaration, undertaking with required documents if pf department ask.

Saswatabanerjee Sir,

I mentioned in above , when factory is closed,then you can can signed you correction letter and id proof from any goverment gazzetted officer and submit it to PF office.
