EPFO Online Claim: EPFO has put in place strict guidelines to ensure that claims are processed as quickly as possible and the same claim is not rejected on multiple grounds.
EPFO Online Claim: Like other institutions including Indian Railways, Employees Provident Fund Organization (EPFO) also keeps taking many measures for its members. It is seen that people have to face a lot of difficulties to get their PF claim. EPFO has taken cognizance of this issue. On behalf of the organization, the regional offices have been asked to reduce the delay in the claim process. It has also been asked to ensure that claims are not rejected repeatedly or on unfair grounds.
In a letter to regional offices, EPFO has now given strict guidelines to ensure that claims are processed as quickly as possible and the same claim is not rejected on multiple grounds.
EPFO said that each claim should be thoroughly scrutinized in the first instance and the member should be informed about the reasons for rejection in the first instance. It has been found that often the same claim is rejected again and again on different grounds.
EPFO fixed the responsibility
Further, the Regional or Additional PF Commissioner will be responsible for rejection of claims in his jurisdiction. Field offices have also been asked to send a report on rejection of similar PF claims every month to the zonal office for review to ensure that they are processed within the required timelines.
Many members and stakeholders had complained to EPFO. It was said that the money was not coming within the stipulated time limit. People have complained of undue delay and harassment. Many members have also highlighted the irregular practices being followed in some PF offices due to which their claims are being returned multiple times.
