EPFO Problem

If I have my name printed as Miss. Momina in my bank account and as Momina in my PF account, will my PF get rejected?

Hi, salutation will not be a criterion. Your PF will not get rejected. Rejection happens only in case of a mismatch in the given name, surname, etc. Also, you should ensure that your name with initials looks alike in both PF UAN and Bank Account.

Name Consistency in Accounts

Name in your account, your Aadhar, and UAN should be the same. It is also important that your account should be Aadhar linked.

Salutation is not the problem. Also, the cheque or passbook which you submit for account verification must have the same name.
