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.

        • @Solomon
          How much it will take to receive PF amount. It depends on EPF department.
          I have been waiting for my PF amount even after 4 months of application confirmation.
          What more can you expect from such a pathetic Govt department.

          • Thanks your suggestion in my problem and my cousin"s, Pankaj sir to day i recived info SMS from EPFO they send me the total AMOUNT Details.
            once again thanks Pankaj

            Thanks & Regards

          • I get so much assurance on reading this post, I submitted my PF withdrawal form in Feb 2011, but still not received anything, checked my status on the link u provided, and found it is under process, but no mention about whats going on and what is the ETA on it. Then I lodged a complain with their online grievance management system, got a refernce number, and contact number of the officer, but cant reach them on mail or phone regardless of whatever time i make the call, finally wrote an email to CPFC, and i am in urgent need for that money, God help me!

          • @Paromita
            Unfortunately PF department is like other Govt departments who do not care for people and complaints.
            If possible, please visit PF office and request them to process it fast.

  • Dear Pankaj,

    I worked in a org for 4.6 year and left org in 2010 april. I submitted application for withdrawal of pf in jan 2011.
    will the amount receivd by me taxable ?

    • @Ashish
      As you deposited two forms (form 19 and 10c), two different claim IDs will be generated.

  • Hello Pankaj Ji,
    I am Krishna. and I have a question.
    When the EPS amount will be credited to my saving bank account ?

    Today I got an SMS to my mobile with regards to my EPS (sms received from EPFO)

    Message - Form 10C (Withdrawal benifit / Scheme certificate) for acct THTHA000042400000XXXXXX recieved on 22.07.2011 and claim ID THTHA 11070001XXXX is under process.

    Regards,
    Krishna

    • @Krishna
      It will take minimum 20-25 days to get EPS refund. There is no maximum time limit in which EPF department provide refund, just like another irresponsible Govt department.

  • When will I get my PF amount
    form is submitted on April 1,2011 and registered complaint on egov.
    pls suggest something what shuld i do further???

    • @Manoj
      Only option is to complain on epfigms.gov.in site.
      You will have to just wait may be for 3-4 months more as computerization of database is being done at all EPF offices and they are not taking other work in the name of that.
