Are you struggling to transfer your Provident Fund (PF) from a previous employer to your current one?
You’re not alone! Many employees face challenges during this process, but don’t worry — here’s a guide to help you navigate PF transfers more smoothly:
Common PF Transfer Issues
-Mismatched information between old and new accounts
-Incomplete documentation
-Delays in processing by employers or EPFO
-Technical glitches on the EPFO portal
-Multiple UANs causing confusion
Steps for a Successful PF Transfer
-Activate your UAN and ensure it’s linked to Aadhaar
-Update your KYC details (Aadhaar, PAN, bank account)
-Verify that your previous employer has updated your exit date
- Log in to the EPFO member portal
Navigate to “Online Services” and select “One Member — One EPF Account (Transfer Request)”
- Fill in the required details accurately
- Choose either your previous or current employer for form attestation
- Authorize the request using Aadhaar-based OTP
-Download and sign Form 13, submitting it to your employer within 10 days
Tips for Troubleshooting
-Double-check all personal details for accuracy
-Follow up regularly with both previous and current employers
-Keep copies of all submitted documents

-Consider seeking assistance from your HR department
