I do not have my PF number. I worked at Sutherland Global Services in Chennai from October 2005 to November 2006 with Emp ID: IN 028880. I had to leave the company due to personal reasons, and I was absconded. Can I claim my PF? Or should I go back to my employer and ask for the PF number, etc. How should I proceed? Please help.

Hi Deepu,
Here are the steps you need to follow to claim your PF amount.
1. Get your PF account number
3. Your HR/accounts dept. will fill the amount contributed by you towards PF & attest the forms.
4. Submit it to the PF office - this again depends on the company: some companies submit it directly to the PF office and some want the individuals to submit it to the PF Office.
After all these, the amount will be credited to your account, which you specify in the above forms.
I guess this helps you.
All the best in getting it done.

Here are the steps you need to follow to claim your PF amount.
1. Get your PF account number
Hey, didn't your payslips have your PF account number?2. You will have to fill two forms, Form 10c & Form 19 - which you will get from your HR (this also depends on the company - some give the forms & some will ask us to collect it from the PF office) & submit it to your HR.
Usually, in some companies, payslips will have the PF number of the employee. Check whether you have it... and in some companies, they maintain all pay details everything on their pay site - check whether you have anything like that.
3. Your HR/accounts dept. will fill the amount contributed by you towards PF & attest the forms.
4. Submit it to the PF office - this again depends on the company: some companies submit it directly to the PF office and some want the individuals to submit it to the PF Office.

Dear Depu,
I can understand your situation. I think you can fill the form by consulting a local gazetted officer/MLA who is well-known and submit the proof attested by them that you have worked in the company and can claim your PF. I hope this provision is there... better consult the PF Office first.
Wishing you good luck.

Dear Friend,
Absconding will not make the employer stop providing the PF Number. Email or reach out to the employer to inquire about your PF Number and politely suggest that if you are unable to obtain the number directly, you will apply for it through the PF office. There is no need to visit the previous employer in person.
Rest assured, they will respond, as they understand that filing for your PF number at the PF office due to the employer's lack of response will have implications for them. It is their statutory responsibility to provide the PF number upon request.
With friendship,

PF is a big fraud in which all corporates invariably indulge. The methodology is to keep the employee blind to PF details. The cessation of your service (and even appointments) will be conveniently reported to the PF office as 'Private Settlement'. A person in service cannot press for details as it would be seen as deviant behavior amounting to termination. You will not be entitled to any compensation upon termination. The courts in India will cost exorbitantly for such cases, resulting in delayed justice. If you are shrewd, you will understand that corporates generate black money with their dubious PF records. Part of this will be used to bribe the PF inspectors!

Please see if you have your PF slip Form 23 where your PF number will be mentioned. If you don't have it, fill out Form 19 & 10C. Ask your company for your PF account number. You will need an authorized person from the company to sign Form 19 & 10C, then send it to the PF office.

Corporates in India are above statutory regulations. The case of Satyam is an example. The discrepancy between the number of employees and the number of PF accounts at Satyam became public knowledge after the scandal, and still, the PF office did nothing about it. The truth is that the process of making a complaint or litigation process regarding PF is not favorable to account holders.
The bulk of the teachers in private institutions surrender their original certificates at the time of getting an appointment. They will get their certificates back only if they sign 'no due' for settlement at the time of cessation of employment. PF is, in fact, not a safety net. Instead, it is a dangerous pit, and it will cost one his/her job if they show more awareness of it.
