    Hi Ravi,

    Just wanted to know – Is it possible to withdraw the amount in EPS (Employee Pension Scheme) online, when a person is employed? I ask because the EPS amount doesn’t get any interest. It is accumulated till age of 58 and we get peanuts as pension. Instead, if we can withdraw it now, it would be really good. Please update if you have any info.

    You can withdraw the contributed EPS amount along with EPF balance.But the condition is you must not have completed 10 years of service.After that withdrawal of EPS is not allowed. You will get money on retirement only.

    In the ‘select claim option’, I can see only ‘PF advance form’ option, unable to see the rest of the forms, any idea why?

    You are only eligible for PF advance so it will display only PF Advance form.It will not display EPF Full and Final Settlement and Employee Pension Scheme Withdrawal.

    Dear Subrat,

    As per me your date of joining would be Aug 2010.As 5 years of services is over EPF amount will not be taxable on withdrawal. If your account is KYC Compliant you can withdraw it online. Otherwise you need to fill composite claim form along with Aadhaar,PAN and ID Proof. You need to send it to EPF office.

    Dear Mohan,

    Generally EPF withdrawal take time of 30-45 days. I suggest to check claim status under unified portal.

    Even a long time has passed, I am answering it because someone may need it.
    1. You will get the pension and full settlement option only after 2 months of quitting your job.
    2. In your online profile, the date of exit (DOE) must be available. To check it, go to VIEW->Service History. If DOE is not available in your service history, you will not get the final settlement or pension forms. In such case, contact your employer and request them to update it. If they do not update after your request, you have to contact PF office with document of your resignation.

    Hello Sir,

    My PAN is not updated in UAN portal but rest details are updated. Can I provide PAN details in the final settlement form while submitting online claim? As of now, it is showing as “No PAN info (TDS @34%)”. And also I would like to know if Form 15G can be submitted online.

    Thanks,
    Sony

    Hello Sony,

    Kindly update PAN card on UAN portal and submit online claim for withdrawal. If your PAN is not updated and withdrawal amount is above Rs.50000 TDS will be deducted @ 34.608%. You can not submit form 15G online.
