To offer convenience to its members, the Employees Provident Fund Organisation or EPFO is allowing them to file e-nominations earlier this year.
“The e-nomination helps in transferring the earnings and benefits of the EPF account holders to their dependents in case of the sudden demise of the account holder. It allows the nominee(s) such as the spouse, children, and dependent parents to withdraw the accrued amount from EPF, Employees’ Pension Scheme (EPS), and Employees’ Deposit Linked Insurance Scheme (EDLI).”
EPFO E-Nominations
There is no deadline for file e-nominations but EPFO is insisting its users complete the process early for smooth and convenient service benefits without circling their offices physically.
