Dear All,
Please let me know if we need to have final settlement with the company before proceeding with PF withdrawal. Can the company withhold the PF amount if the final settlement is not completed?

Dear Savpril,
Final settlement has nothing to do with PF withdrawal. PF can only be withdrawn after two months from the Date of Leaving (D.O.L), which is the last working day in the organization.
Unless your final settlement/no dues are cleared in the organization, you won't be relieved, and they may also withhold or not issue the experience and relieving letter. No one has the right to stop you from withdrawing the PF.
Please let me know if your organization has its own PF trust. In that case, they can hold the PF withdrawal until your final settlement is cleared, but they can't prevent the PF withdrawal.
Thank you.

Full and final settlement will be done once you leave the organization, and that has to be done by your company. Your leave balance, recovery, etc., will be considered, and if there is any recovery, then you have to pay the amount. If there is any due, the company will pay you back.
PF can be withdrawn only after the completion of 2 months. You have to fill out the withdrawal form and submit it to your organization.

Savpril Verma,
It is advised to submit the withdrawal form once the final settlement is completed. Moreover, the withdrawal form submitted by you will be handed over to the department after 60 days from the date of resignation from the company. Before settling the dues, if you submit the withdrawal form, the contribution pertaining to the final settlement will not be a part of your withdrawal. You will not receive the benefits of the final settlement contributions. Moreover, no company will hold the final settlement for 60 days.
Do let us know if further assistance is required.

As per PF rules, the withdrawal is permitted only after 55 years of age.So if the company mentions in the withdrawal application or calls for your present employment details, you will have problem

Dear Friend,
PF withdrawal has no connection with final settlement. Final settlement and PF withdrawal are two separate issues. You should fill out the appropriate form, duly signed, and submit the same after 60 days from the date of leaving the job to the ex-employer. The employer cannot stop PF payment. They have to forward your application, duly signed at the appropriate place, to the concerned PF Office before processing.
