EPFO has issued important information: If you are also employed then this news is of your use. Actually, the Employees’ Provident Fund Organization (EPFO) has issued important information for all the account holders. EPFO has tweeted that you can transfer your Provident Fund (PF) amount from the previous company to the new account opened by the existing employer sitting at home.
However, since the introduction of Universal Account Number (UAN), all the accounts of the employee remain in one place, but the money remains in different accounts. Therefore it is important that you first share your UAN with the new company. Later transfer the money from the old account to your new account. To make this process online, you have to follow some easy steps…
