KYC Approval Process for PF Withdrawal
Last date is marked and verified by the employer on the Member's Portal. Bank KYC is also verified by the employer while the member was in employment. After separation, the PF is not withdrawn by the member for 2 years and also not transferred. Now, the member decides to withdraw PF. In the meantime, the member's bank has merged with another bank. The member updates bank details on the portal under 'Manage-KYC'. After updating the KYC details, the KYC is shown as 'KYC Pending for Approval'.
Why is the employer's approval required when the last date is already marked and approved by the employer? This approval process adds a dependency on the employer when the member is no longer in service with the employer.
