Some of the money will transfer towards the EPS [Employee Provident Scheme]. There are several ways you can check the amount of EPF here. 

If you are retired and feel that you want to get your money, there is a EPF withdrawal procedure. An EPFO member has to wait for more than two months to apply for the withdrawal of his or her PF claims.

Rules Associated With EPF Withdrawal

One can receive their Provident Fund amount within two months after leaving an existing job. The PF money is meant to help employees when they have retired meaning they do not have monthly income from their employers. There are some guidelines that one needs to understand before making a PF withdrawal of their EPF claims. They include;

• The applicant has to fill in the Employee Provident Fund form with correct and relevant details and add a stamp from your previous employer.
• A member of the EPFO should submit Form 19 to withdraw his or her Provident Funds.
• Members are also required to provide form 10C when they want to claim a pension.
• The members should know that it usually takes about 40 days from the date of submission to transfer your funds from one account to another.
• If an employee withdraws his or her Provident Funds before the end of five years after opening the PF account, the money becomes taxable.
• No employee is entitled to apply for their Provident Funds just two months after leaving their jobs.
• Withdrawal of your Provident Fund earlier after leaving one’s job is not encouraged because after retirement means you can never get employed again and you will not have any salary rather than depending on the Provident Funds money.
