The Employees Provident Fund Organization (EPFO) has helped people a lot during the difficult times of the Corona epidemic. EPFO accelerated the process of withdrawing funds from PA accounts and made the process easier. This is the reason why those who faced financial crisis in the lockdown, withdrew advance money from their PF accounts.
On the other hand, shareholders who have not availed EPFO facilities in the initial stages of lockdown, can still withdraw funds from their PF accounts as per the requirement. EPFO has once again informed about its easy methods.
To withdraw money from EPF account, visit EPFO website. For this, the UAN and the account must be linked to Aadhaar. Login to EPF portal with the help of UAN and password. Then click on Online Service and choose Claim (Form-31, 19 & 10C). Enter the account number and click on Verify. Then click on Yes. Now go to proceed for online claim option. Here we have to explain why we are withdrawing the amount. After entering other general information, SMS will be sent to the mobile number registered in the EPFO. Usually, the money is transferred to the bank account within 15 to 20 days, however, at this time the amount is coming to the account in 72 hours.
PF money can be withdrawn without UAN, know the way
If you do not have a UAN, you can submit by submitting an offline form. This form has also been downloaded online. Download the Aadhaar based composite claim form or Non-Aadhaar based composite claim form from the EPFO website and submit it to the nearest office.
