EPF refund status

Now you can check your EPF refund status online, Click Here Remember to open it in Only in Internet Explorer.

In case, you are not happy with status of your withdrawal/refund application, you may contact EPF office. You may find address/phone number on this link: http://www.epfindia.com/epfo_directory.htm

If they also do not listen, launch a complaint on this website: http://epfigms.gov.in/

EPFO (Employees Provident Fund Organization) is now moving to electronic payment system. PF refund amount will now be credited directly into member’s bank account through NEFT (National Electronic Find Transfer).

Currently department issues cheque and post it to member’s address, the process takes up to a month and leads to a large number of complaints. EPFO will also collect the mobile numbers of the members so that it could send SMS alerts informing about credit of the pension amount.

  • Hi Mr. Batra,

    Would like to know if there are any standard timelines for withdrawl as per PF odficials.

    I have read a few articles which say that withdrawl is taking maximum 30 dyas and Labour Ministry is trying to reduce the same time period to 3 days. Please through some light on this. As per citizen charter ot EPFO website it is 30 days

    Highly appreciated the insight provided in the article.

    Regards

    • @Prashanth
      There are no standards being followed by PF departments.
      They are taking more than 2-3 months in some cases. Best way to get it done fast is to file RTI asking reason for delay.

  • Dear Sir,

    I applied for PF withdrawal on 05Jun2015. Pf account is GJ/AHD/0029807/000/0001835. Today I got 4 sms. 2 sms for form 19 and 2 sms for form 10c. One sms mentions claim rejected and the other mentions claim is under process. What does this mean? I am confused.

    Thanks,
    Shihab T

  • Hello Sir,

    I want to know that how many days normally it takes the amount to be deposited in to bank account after getting confirmation from pf office that your payment is sent through NEFT. Thanks.

  • Form 19 approved and form 10 C has been rejected.
    The reason for the same is not available in the database.

    And how to get the pf amount now ??
