How to track status of your PF transfer online?
With the completion of computerization of 117 of the 120 provident fund offices across the country, PF account holders who have sought a transfer can now track the progress of their applications online.
The step, officials in the Employees Provident Fund Organization (EPFO) say, is aimed as much at user convenience as to infuse transparency in the working of the organization.
The facility was started last week and officials say that though the transfer deadline is a month, “unofficially” they are looking at a window of one week within which effort will be made to complete the transfer. The system of electronic transfer of PF money was put in place from January, which is when the deadline was brought down to one month from a year that it used to take earlier.
For online tracking of the application status, the applicants can visit the EPFO website epfindia.nic.in and click on the “know your claims status link”.
“Whether the application has been received, cleared or payment sent, all that will be shown. So, if something goes wrong, applicant can immediately follow up instead of waiting for months for the money to come, only to be told that the application was never received,” said an EPFO official.
