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.

Please ask your employer to provide EPF account number. You have right to know that.
Once you have that you can inquire about refund from EPF office.

@Santosh
Please ask for EPF account statement from your employer.
what is minimum service condition for taking epf return .
is there any time limit for epf refund
@Kuldeep
EPF refund takes minimum 1.5-2 months to process.
There is no minimum service condition for applying for refund. If you apply before 5 years, refund will be taxable as per income tax slab.
Hi Pankaj,
My frined and I had filed a PF refund form at my previous employer at same day in the month of december last year. Both my friend and I had got a NEFT transaction for the EPF refund amount on Monday (28-02-2011), where my friend got 2 NEFT transaction amonting to 2 lac and I had got only single NEFT transaction of 16K only, although both of us should be getting equal amount as a refund. He had got it already and now its almost 3 days over and I have not got my 2nd NEFT transaction.
Should I wait for some more time or should I take some action?
Kindly advise
@Ankur
There might be some delay in processing of one of the accounts. So I would advise you to wait for some more days and then inquire about this from PF office.
It is frustrating to see the PF department in Pune, sending a cheque after 3months to a bank which has shifted..inspite of providing them with the cancelled cheque & complete bank account details.
Is there any Bank account type restriction for PF cheque to be deposited?
Has it got to be a single account?
Can a EPF refund cheque be credited to a Savings account of a Non-nationalised bank, the account is in joint name of EPF account holder & his spouse.
Thanks, Shri
@Shri
There should not be any such restriction on EPF account cheque deposit. It can be deposited to any bank account in your name (single or joint)
