Employees who are not eligible for Pension, can File Form 10C in Online for withdrawal of EPS accumulations

Will they be a member of P F again or not
B- Some employees have superannuated after completing 58 years of age, and they are now enjoying their pension and have withdrawn their P F , if we rehire them, do we need to contribute to their P F again?

If they are getting PF pension, they need not be covered by EPF but can be excluded from coverage on their rehire.

An employee who has withdrawn his PF accumulations on attaining the age of 55 is an excluded employee. Excluded employee is defined not in Employees Provident Fund Act but in Employees Provident Fund Schemes. A person whose salary at the time of joining (other than an existing member) is more than Rs 15000 and an apprentice (under Apprentice Act or as per Certified Standing Orders) are excluded employees. Other than these, as per scheme 2(f) a person can be excluded from PF if he has already withdrawn the PF accumulations following two conditions. Of that one is withdrawing PF on retirement. The second is withdrawing the fund after migrating from India permanently. At the same time, an employee withdrawing PF due to termination of employment to due ill health, retrenchment, VRS, resignation etc will not qualify for exclusion. But following some verdicts if the person is already a PF pensioner he can be excluded on his rehire. Similarly, if the PF accumulations are withdrawn after his attaining the age of 55 years, he can be excluded from the coverage.
