When you change your company, it is important that you also take your Employee Provident fund along with you by transferring the PF. Here are few details that may help you transfer your PF from your previous employer to the new employer.
First and foremost, you need the new and revised form 13 to initiate the pf transfer process .
Note: If you are withdrawing your PF amount (through a different form), be sure to mention your bank details, as EPF withdrawal Claims are now being settles fast via e payment
All references mentioning ‘present employer’ in the form mean your new employer (New company).
Some details of your previous employer Before you submit the application to your previous employer, you need to fill few columns regarding your new employer, which if possible should be filled by the employer it self. Details regarding the New Employer such as Name and Address of the new Company, EPF code and Account number allotted to the member, FPF Account number allotted to the member (if available), if the company is exempted or un exempted, your name (Payee name) will be required from your new Employer.
After filling the application form (form 13), it has to be submitted to your previous employer which will hence be forwarded to the concerned EPF Commissioner. Once everything is verified, the EPF Commissioner will initiate the EPF transfer containing the money accrued when you are with previous employer to your new EPF account allotted by the New Employer.
