At the time of claim, the claimant has to produce the death certificate of the EPF subscriber as well as the death certificate of the second nominee. However, the fund may ask for an indemnity if either of the nominees passes away. If the EPF subscriber is alive but one of the nominees has passed away, the nomination can be changed by the subscriber using the Umang app.

As per the rules of the EPF scheme, in case the provident fund account holder doesn’t have a family while filing the nomination, they are eligible to nominate any person or persons. However, after acquiring a family, the PF member can only nominate one or more persons belonging to the family.
Definition of Family in EPF
The family includes 'spouse,' 'legitimate children,' 'stepchildren,' 'deceased son’s widow,' 'deceased son's legitimate children,' 'deceased son's step-children,' and 'dependent parents,' who are considered as legal 'family members.' Any nomination made by a PF account holder in favor of a person not belonging to their family will be treated as invalid. The brother is outside the family, and the nomination is invalid, so the share given to the invalid member reverts to the valid member and can be paid to the spouse in this case.
