I have completed 4 1/2 years in my current organization and am considering changing jobs. So, let me know...

1. Will the amount be taxable if I withdraw it?
2. Can I transfer it to a new employer and then withdraw after completing a total of 5 years of employment?
3. If the withdrawal is tax-free, how many times and how much amount can I withdraw without incurring taxes on it?

If your organization is exempted, the withdrawal amount will be taxed if you do not complete 5 years. If your organization is not exempted, then income tax will not be deducted, regardless of the years of service. However, you can transfer the amount to your new organization by filling out the 13 R form and depositing it to your new employer, mentioning the PF account number, date of leaving, name of the previous employer, etc.

Thanks,

Its always preferred to transfer the EPF account from old to new account, it adds seniority to the pensionable limit
