Navigating a 2-Month PF Overlap: How Can I Resolve It and Protect My Career?

Hello, I joined Company A as a fresher, but later I had to join another Company B on Sept 1st. I've resigned from Company A and requested an early release, but they have not reduced my notice period. However, my Company B HR said I can join the company on Sept 1st, so I have stopped reporting to Company A and joined Company B.

Later, Company A updated my last working date to Dec 14, so I have a PF overlap of more than 2 months. I have cleared all the dues with Company A and paid the bond amount as I left the company before 1 year.

Resolving PF Overlap Issue

In my case, how should I resolve this PF overlap issue? Can I raise a change of date of leaving from Company A in the EPF portal? Can Company A help me in updating the date of exit? Will this PF overlap impact my career opportunities? Please provide any solution to fix this issue.

Service Overlap and Its Implications

The service overlap will not only affect your career but will also lead to several issues regarding the transfer of funds from one account (A) to another (B or any other company). Since the error was committed by the Personnel Manager of Company A, they should correct it. You can either inform the PF authorities, marking a copy to Company A, or file a case against Company A if they do not correct it. Please mention that when you have not worked for these two months with Company A, and when Company A has not paid any salary nor contributed any PF for that period, the exit date is arbitrary and against the law.
