If you are a subscriber of the Employees’ Provident Fund (EPF) and would like to make any changes to your account, you can do it online without going to fill out a paper form.
Formerly, subscribers to the employees’ provident fund were required to turn in a jointly signed declaration form once their employer had signed it. But that’s no longer the case! They can fill it out and submit it online.
The Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) for allowing subscribers to complete the form online has even been made available by EPFO.
Online adjustments are available to EPF subscribers for eleven things. These include the member’s name, gender, birth date, parent’s name, relationship, marriage status, joining date, reason for quitting, leaving date, country, and Aadhaar.
The Following 11 Parameters Are Modifiable Using The Online Mode:
1. Member’s Name
2. Member’s Gender
3. Date Of Birth
4. Father’s / Mother’s Name
5. Relationship
6. Marital Status
7. Date Of Joining
8. Reason For Quitting
9. Date Of Quitting
10. Nationality
11. Aadhaar Details
