Then this work will have to be done in 10 days
The selected company or institution has to submit a self-attested copy of their online EPF transfer application in PDF file within 10 days of submission of the online application for PF transfer. The company or institution digitally approves the EPF transfer request. After approval, the EPF is transferred to the new EPF account with the existing company.
Tracking ID is also generated
Keep one thing in mind, a Tracking ID is also generated during the Employees Provident Fund transfer process. It can be used to track the application. Another point is that the employee has to download the Transfer Claim Form (Form 13). In some cases, the employee has to submit this form to the company to complete the process of EPF transfer.
In how many days can you withdraw money?
Many times in an emergency, people withdraw their PF money before retirement. For this, you have to apply. You will get the money after a long claim process of about 20 days. PF is a great facility available to the salary earners. 12% of the basic salary of most employees is deposited in the PF account every month. The same amount is deposited every month in the employee’s account on behalf of the company.
