Unclaimed Pension Balances After PF Withdrawal: How Can I Access These Funds?

Hello Experts, I would like to inquire about some pension amount balances that I have noticed in the passbooks of my two previous employers. After leaving those companies, I withdrew the PF amounts, but I am unsure why there is still some pension amount showing as a balance. I worked for less than 10 years in each of the companies. I am seeking clarification on what these balances represent and how I can withdraw them. Thank you in advance for any assistance provided.

Hi, here are a few inputs before taking any actions:

- Check how many UAN/PF accounts you have.
- Did you transfer the previous one to the new PF account before withdrawals?
- During withdrawal, did you apply only for EPF or both EPF/EPS?
- Raise a grievance in the PF Portal and act as per EPF advice.

Note: If you have multiple PF numbers, you need to be cautious and transfer them to one UAN/PF account before making any withdrawals.
