Invest savings

Almost all salaried people contribute a certain percentage of their salary towards their Employee Provident Fund (EPF) account every month. While most of us know that EPF is an effective tool that helps generate a corpus for life post retirement, many of us are unaware that you can make a withdrawal from your EPF account for urgent cash requirements.

However, an EPF account cannot be treated like any other saving bank account implying that there are certain specified criteria under which withdrawal is permitted from an EPF account. An individual needs to furnish all relevant documents and satisfy the necessary requirements in order to be eligible for premature withdrawal of EPF.

Here are the categories and other details with respect to premature withdrawal from EPF.

Withdrawal from EPF after leaving an Organization

On switching jobs, an employee can apply for transfer of money from the EPF account through a form which is filled by the employee and attested by the designated authority at the employer.

Withdrawal of money from the account in between two jobs is illegal and is permissible only under the following two circumstances:

• When a member is in between two jobs
• If the member has been unable to find another job for over two months

Grievance related to withdrawal from EPF

There is a mechanism to address grievances of EPF members which comes under the Consumer Protection Act. To report a grievance, a member needs to:

• Log on to the website www.epfigms.gov.in
• Click Register Grievance
• Enter the details and information in the specified field.

All grievances related to the following subjects can be addressed to the grievance cell:

• Withdrawal or final settlement of EPF
• Scheme certificate
• Transfer of accumulated PF amount
• Issuance of PF balance or slip
• Return or misplacement of cheque
• Payment of insurance benefit

EPF is the corpus that helps build financial stability post retirement. It is, therefore, advisable to leave the amount undisturbed during employment tenure unless the circumstances are unavoidable.

Kind attention to representatives and members of AIGETOA :

Friends, Today CMD has called for an emergency meeting of the Board of Directors. We are at the threshold of success. About a dozen of us are at Delhi representing all of us from Karnataka. We are looking for volunteers for the next programme of hunger strike beginning on the 12th at Delhi. Register your names so that we can make necessary arrangements.

Further, AIGETOA KTK is overwhelmed by the massive support from all SSAs. Those SSAs where no body existed have been re-organised. New bodies have been formed. Now we are better organised to tackle the management at the local level. Please keep up the good work. Be assured that AIGETOA is the only platform that can legitimately and whole-heartedly take up the issues of BSNL recruited officers.

All DRJTOs/DRJAOs/DRDGMs/DRTTAs of Karnataka circle are requested to give 100%  support from all SSAs for ongoing agitation,this struggle is for Basic rights of all the Direct recruits, so continue the support till  goal is reached.

It is heartening to note that there is a massive ground-swell of support from JAOs across KTK Circle. Today all of them are on leave.

This is the last and final appeal to any DR who is still working in office. Let not any claim ignorance of our rights and duties. Please come out till our demands are met.
