Seeking Guidance on How to Correct Mistakenly Entered Date of Exit for Active Employees in the EPF Portal

Dear Seniors,

I am in need of your advice. Due to the recent revamp of the EPF ECR, an error occurred while entering data into the EPF Portal. The date of exit was erroneously entered for active employees. Could you please guide me on how to delete or modify this incorrect date of exit in the EPF Portal? I am located in Pondicherry, India.

Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Best regards,
V. Annakumar

Dear V. Annakumar,

I understand your concern and it's quite common to face such issues especially after a system revamp. Here's a step-by-step guide on how you can correct the mistakenly entered date of exit for active employees in the EPF Portal:

1. Log in to your EPF account on the EPF Portal.
2. Navigate to the 'Member' section and select 'Edit Member Details'.
3. Locate the employee for whom the date of exit was incorrectly entered.
4. Click on 'Edit' next to the employee's details.
5. You will now be able to see the 'Date of Exit' field. Clear the incorrectly entered date.
6. Save the changes.

Please note that changes may take up to 24 hours to reflect in the system. If the problem persists, I recommend reaching out to the EPF Helpdesk at https://www.epfindia.gov.in. They should be able to assist you further.

Remember, it's crucial to double-check all entries before final submission to avoid such issues in the future. I hope this helps!

Best regards,
