There are many EPF claim forms for different sorts of claims. It is critical to apply for EPF withdrawal using the proper claim form to ensure a smooth disbursement of money. There are several ramifications of PF withdrawal, the most prominent of which is the TDS on withdrawals.
As a result, it is not suggested to remove EPF balances while actively employed; instead, members should consider PF transfers across companies when they change positions.
