Hi Shankar,
A person who has deducted PF before and has joined a new company can transfer his EPF UAN under the current employer's PF consultant. On the other hand, if one has to deactivate their UAN, they need to be unemployed for 3 months before being able to withdraw their PF amount.

Understanding the Universal Account Number (UAN)
UAN stands for Universal Account Number. The UAN acts as an umbrella for the multiple Member IDs allotted to an individual by different establishments. The idea is to link multiple Member Identification Numbers (Member IDs) allotted to a single member under a single Universal Account Number. This will help the member view details of all the Member Identification Numbers (Member IDs) linked to it. If a member is already allotted a Universal Account Number (UAN), then he/she is required to provide the same upon joining a new establishment to enable the employer to, in turn, mark the newly allotted Member Identification Number (Member ID) to the already allotted Universal Identification Number (UAN).
After successful ECR submission and remittance of the same in the bank, the list of employees without UAN in that ECR will be available in the ‘Confirm Previous Employment’ link for either declaring previous employment details or fresh employment on the basis of Form-11 submitted by the new member. Once it is approved by the employer, this information will be pushed to EPFO for UAN allotment/linkage accordingly. The newly allotted UAN List will be populated on the portal under the option ‘Download UAN List’.

Hi,
With the new Unified Portal for PF, how do we link employees' old UAN? I tried uploading ECR, but it says, "Entered UAN does not belong to your establishment." Where else can I log in and confirm his previous employment?

Until the employee's ex-employer marks the exit in their PF account, the new employer can't link the old UAN to the establishment. This is the solution.
