Hi all,
My husband has a purchase agreement with a power for consideration agent towards purchase of a residential land. We have decided to withdraw from the EPF for financing the purchase. But we have a lot of clarifications regarding the filling up of the new declaration.
1. Name and address of the owner of plot from whom agreement executed - We do not know whether we have to provide the address of the owner, or the details of the person holding the power for consideration as the document entitles him to sell the property to us. It is a registered valid document. Please help
2. Can we withdraw from the PF for purchase of a dwelling site or is it mandatory to construct a house immediately? If so what is the time limit for constructing a house on that site? Kindly advise.
3. Please note that this is just a residential property in a small town and in no way like the plots sold in cities. The area is 25 cents (approx. 4.5 grounds)
Thanks and regards,

Hi Aditya,
Thank you for your response. The information you provided is there in the EPF website as well as in all related articles. But my query is very specific. Can you please look into my queries and see if you can help resolve these issues? I really need information regarding this.

Hi Deepa,
1st thing You should have registered document of purchase of Land. The name and address of the land owner and P.A will be in the agreement.
If you have alredy purchased land i.e. transaction is completed, you cannot withdraw amount from PF.
You can provide the documents for construction of the house. i.e. Estimate, Permission from Local Authority and approved Plan etc.
It is not binding to build the house on the land immediately.
Thanks,

Thank you Vidhyadhar Bhat. I was searching the internet for the information you provided for almost a week. I'm not planning to construct a house immediately and the EPF website had no information about this. Thanks a lot. You've been very helpful.
We have entered into an agreement to purchase, but haven't actually purchased the land. So I'll go ahead and apply for the PF withdrawal.
