Hi,
Can anyone please advise and help me? Looking forward to your help.
I had left employment almost 10 years ago for self-employment. I want to withdraw my PF, which has been deposited with the PF office in Delhi, Wazirpur. I live in Kolkata. I got the necessary Form 19 and 10C attested by my old company (employer). They told me that their work is done and that I should submit the form to the PF office in Wazirpur. I don't have a SSN. Do I need to get one first, and if yes, then how? As I don't work for any organization now, and I don't think my previous employer will sign the form. Is there any way to submit Form 19 and 10C without a SSN? Also, can I submit the form at the Kolkata PF office, or do I need to send it by registered post to the PF office in Wazirpur, New Delhi, where my PF has been deposited? I'm very confused about what to do. I would appreciate help as soon as possible. Thank you!
Warmest regards and best wishes,

SSN is not mandatory for withdrawal cases. Even for the current members, the work of allotting a Security Number is not being done properly. Therefore, you can send the forms directly to the Delhi Office for settlement.

Dear Akash,
SSN is not mandatory for PF withdrawal. You need to get Form 19 & Form 10C duly signed by the authorized signatory (Employer). After that, you can send the forms directly to the Delhi Office for settlement. After submission, it will take around 3 months to process.
