Respected Sir/Madam, After the original documents are verified by the EPFO office, how many days does it take to settle the death claim procedure in the case of an offline application by a widow and children? Can you please clarify? Thank you.

With warm regards,

Hi, it cannot be predicted. Subject to the submission of all required documents, it might take a 2-3 month range. After COVID, even now, many PF offices are functioning with minimal manpower. So after the submission of documents, you need to wait and see.
