Hi, I worked in an IT company for two and a half years from 01 July 2013 to 31 December 2015, and my UAN was created during this period. When my PF account and UAN were being created, my employer mistakenly entered my father's name and my date of birth incorrectly. I discovered this discrepancy when attempting to transfer my PF account from my old employer to the new one using the online transfer claim portal. As my previous company has shut down, I am unable to rectify the information and transfer the amount to my new PF account. I would appreciate it if you could provide me with guidance on how to correct my father's name and date of birth in the UAN details and facilitate the transfer of the amount.
Thank you,

This is possible with a joint declaration by the employer and employee, format enclosed. If you can get your old employer's signature on it, then it would be easy. In case you are unable to trace, then visit the EPFO. They will suggest that in the absence of the employer, who can attest to your declaration. If any of the KYC is digitally verified by your old employer, then it would be easy for EPFO to recognize you and process the case.
