Dear Friends,
In the case of intercity travel - for example, from Delhi to Mumbai RPFC, I have had a very painful experience as my PF transfer has been stuck for the last four years. My suggestion is not to attempt it and instead withdraw. There seems to be no accountability in RPFC offices. It has been such a painful experience; no one responds.

Dear Raja,
The process explained above by Mr. Ramachandran to make use of Form 13-C (obtain it from the EPF Office or download) requires completing the form with details of your PF membership account number obtained from your previous employer or the one printed on the PF annual statement provided by the previous employer. Submit the completed form through your present employer who, in turn, is required to send it to the concerned EPFO, indicating your PF account number in the current organization for the transfer of the account. My experience shows that continuous follow-up with EPFO through your current employer is necessary.
Hope this is clear.

I agree with Aseem. It's always advisable not to transfer your PF but to withdraw the same and apply for a fresh one when you join a new company. If you are going with the transfers, you never know how much time it will take. I have seen cases that are pending from the last 3 years or so.

You should fill out Form No. 13 (Revised), which contains both your previous and existing concern details. Apart from this, you have to submit Form No. 3A and 6A under your previous employee code. You can contact your previous employer for these forms. Additionally, provide details about yourself and your family in Form No. 2 (Revised) under your current employer and submit all the data to the local office of the present company. Once your funds are transferred, you will receive a confirmation letter from your previous local office. In this regard, you need to stay in touch with your previous local office and inform them of your current location.

Dear Friends,
It's always better to withdraw the PF money if you are changing the account, especially in the case of intercity. Neither the previous employer nor the current employer is responsible if your money doesn't get transferred. It is better to withdraw and invest somewhere so that you can get a good amount of money as a return.

Dear Raja,
You can transfer your PF accumulation from your old company, PF A/c No., to the new PF Account No., which will be allotted to you at the time of joining the new company. Simply fill up Form 13 duly filled in and signed by you and your present employer's authorized signatory, and submit it to the current O/O Regional/Sub Provident Fund Commissioner office. You have to regularly follow up on whether your PF has been transferred or not. Generally, if you are transferring from one state to another state, it takes a long time. However, if it is within the same Regional Commissioner office, it will be transferred within 2 months.
The second option is withdrawal, which can be done by filling up Form 19 and 10 C by your previous employer and submitting it to the same PF Regional Commissioner office.

I have filled out Form 13 for PF Transfer. My current company has requested other forms, including Form 3A, which I have obtained from my previous employer. However, upon verifying Form 3A, I noticed that my father's name was mentioned incorrectly, but all other details are correct.
I have heard that the PF office will verify details such as name, father's name, EPF number, amount contributed, signature, etc. Will the transfer proceed with the incorrect Form 3A if I continue?
Can someone help me? I am unsure of the next steps I need to take in this case. Any clarification would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
I am concerned about my PF transfer. Earlier, I was employed in Bangalore. I moved from one company to another in October 2007 in Bangalore itself. However, my new employer did not initiate the PF transfer process for the first 6-7 months as the HR person was not aware of the process (he was super dumb). Later, we pushed him to initiate the process, and he took the forms from all of us and submitted them. It has been over 2 years now, and it's still not transferred, and I have now left that company as well. I am going to join a new company in Mumbai. With three PF accounts, will that be a problem? Can I withdraw the PF from both of these organizations now?
Please advise.

Your new company's HR department can fill out Form 13 (APPLICATION FOR TRANSFER OF EPF ACCOUNT) and send it to the concerned PF authorities in your region. The PF authorities will confirm the details of your previous employment with your previous employer and transfer the previous account to your new account.

After collecting the scheme certificate, what should we do next? Also, if my service in my previous employment is less than 6 months, can I get a scheme certificate?

PF transfer is very simple. The Form 13 should be filled out and taken to the present employer for signature, then submitted through the present employer. You should ensure the following documents:
1. Your previous employer code no. & your PF No.
2. PF Regional Office correct address.
3. Break in particulars of your previous employment.
If you do not submit your break in service, PF authorities will return your Form-13 to your previous employer. This way, you will obtain break in service particulars.

If you have already been assigned a Universal Account Number, you can transfer funds easily. Ask your employer for UAN, if you haven’t got it.
Go to the EPFO website at http://members.epfoservices.in/home.php and create your UAN based login ID.

Then you need to check if account is eligible for a transfer on the EPFO site. You need to fill in the state where the employer was located and search by name or establishment number from a dropdown menu.
After you have filled in the details, click on Check Eligibility.
The site will then let you know if your account is eligible, or not. If it is, then you can register on the EPFO website.
You have to submit a valid photo ID such PAN card, Aadhaar or driving licence. The website will also send a PIN to your mobile which you have to verify.
Submitting the PIN successfully will give you a confirmation message. Continue further.
This will take you to the EPFO Member Claims Portal, To log in you have to provide the document ID and phone number. After signing in, you can see all options.
Go to the top tabs and click on Request for transfer of account.
You can now access and fill in PF transfer form. It has three broad parts:
First, you have to enter personal information in the first part. Other than your name and email you have to enter IFSC code of the bank and your salary account number.
In second part, fill in details of your old PF account
In part three, fill in details of current PF account.
The claim can be attested by your previous or current employer. It takes some time for their end to do it.
After the form is correctly filled in, you can click preview to see if the information is correct. Or else modify.
After ensuring all the information is correct, enter the captcha and get PIN. Also click “I Agree”.
After entering the PIN, the claim transfer is initiated.
You can also check the status of your funds transfer through the portal. In case of any hitches you may enquire at the previous/ current employer end or write to EPFO directly.

After the form is correctly filled in, you can click preview to see if the information is correct. Or else modify.
After ensuring all the information is correct, enter the captcha and get PIN. Also click “I Agree”.
After entering the PIN, the claim transfer is initiated.
You can also check the status of your funds transfer through the portal. In case of any hitches you may enquire at the previous/ current employer end or write to EPFO directly.
This is how easy, the funds transfer of PF has become through the online portal.

Dear All,
I have two UAN numbers, one for the last company and one for the present company. I want to merge or transfer my PF from the last company to the present company. How do I transfer PF amount online from one company to another?

Dear Raja,
It is better to use the OTCP Portal for transferring PF online, and you can then submit that copy to your present employer. OTCP stands for Online Transfer Claim Portal. The required details for the transfer are as follows:
- ID Proof (Pan Card, Aadhar Card, License, Passport) copy of the member
- Active Mobile Number (must be activated and logged in for the transfer)
- Bank Account Details (with IFSC Code)
This information is provided for your reference.
