The Employees Provident Fund Organization (EPFO) has simplified the process of employees Present or Previous EPF Account transfer claims.
Dr. Mansukh Mandaviya (Minister, Ministry of Labour and Employment) said the EPF members who have linked their Universal Account Number with their Aadhaar number, can file their transfer claims online using the one-time password generated using Aadhaar. Now the intervention of employer is not needed from now.
According to the EPFO Circular issued on January 15,2025.
- Transfers between Member IDs linked with the same UAN, where the UAN was allotted on or after 01/10/2017 and linked with Aadhaar.
- Transfers between Member IDs linked with different UANs, where such UANs were allotted on or after 01/10/2017 and linked with the same Aadhaar.
- Transfers between Member IDs linked with the same UAN, where the UAN was allotted prior to 01/10/2017, is linked with Aadhaar, and the name, date of birth (DOB), and gender is identical across the Member IDs.
- Transfers between Member IDs linked with different UANs, where at least one of the UANs was allotted prior to 01/10/2017, is linked with the same Aadhaar, and the name, DOB, and gender are identical across the Member IDs
Employees UAN details and Aadhar details are same, then this new rule helpful and easy way to transfer the EPF Previous and Present account without Employer (Company) Approval.
