Hi All,
I was employed in an organization and I left it without serving proper notice period. So, I don’t have relieving letter with me. I went through this forum and understood the process, but still I have some queries.
1. What should be my course of action to withdraw the PF.
2. What all documents do I need to send to withdraw the PF and to whom? Shall I send it to my organization(employer) or Hindustan Instruments Ltd (PF firm for organization) or to EPF office?
3. If I have to send all the documents to EPF office – how can I get the address of the office?
4. Is there any format or any order in which the documents should be sent?
5. How can I keep a track of the submitted application? In case I would need to file a RTI.
Please let me know the complete process. I shall be very thankful.
Kindly help. Thanks Much.

Dear Sahni Manish,
Greetings for the day.
Referring to your query, I understand that you resigned from the service by serving proper notice to the concerned party and have not been provided with the relieving letter. Could you confirm if your full and final settlement has been completed by the company? Do you have a copy of your resignation acceptance letter? Once these details are confirmed, we can draw a conclusion accordingly.
Thanks and Regards,

Sir,
1) The reply to the 1st question is that you should apply to the concerned EPF office (can tell if you provide the PF number) in Form 19 & 10C which you can download from the website Epfo (Govt. of India)
2) If you are employed in some other company you have to transfer the accumulations to the new company. For this purpose you have apply for transfer in Form 13. There is now provision to apply for transfer through your new company and through online also.
3) you can visit the website Epfo (Govt. of India) to know the exact address of the concerned EPF office
4)Form 19 & 10C, cancelled cheque. The claim forms should be routed through the ex-employer if you are not employed any where. If you are now employed you get the amount transferred which will benefit you in the long run.
5) you can track the claim status in the website Epfo (Govt. of India) "Know your claims Status"

I also want to withdraw my PF, as i left organization without notice period. Is it possible to withdraw possible without any formalities to previous organization.
Thank you for the reply. I still have a few queries unanswered - if you could help. My PF number is HIL EPF Trust-HR/5572/261863.
Following are the queries:
1. I want to withdraw the PF amount. Where should I submit the documents? EPF office, HIL office, or my employer's office?
2. Which documents should I submit?
- Form 10C and 19 -- attested by a Notary (because the previous employer is not cooperating. What should I do now?)
- A letter to EPF stating the reason for getting a sign from a notary
- Cancelled cheques (2)
- Photo
- PAN
- Affidavit on Rs 100 paper attested by a notary - attesting that I am not employed anywhere
Is there anything else that should be sent? Please confirm. Thanks again.

Sir, normally you have to submit the forms through your ex-employer. As you have problems with your ex-employer, you can get attestation from any gazetted officer or from the manager of the bank where you maintain an account. The bank manager can attest your claim in the space provided for the employer, with a reason why you could not send it through your ex-employer. I would suggest that if you are employed anywhere, you can transfer your account. No need to go to a notary. No need for any affidavit.

Dear all,
Greetings for the day.
Your EPF accumulation can't be stopped by the employer. You have your EPF account number. Simply fill Form 19 & 10C and enclose a complaint letter with the form which accompanies the claim that your previous employer is not signing the withdrawal claims. Submit the same to the concerned EPF office after getting it duly signed by your banker, gazetted officers, notary advocate, members of legislatures, councillors, etc. The EPFO officials will take action against the employer.
Secondly, if at present you have an EPF number with your current company, then transfer your accumulation by simply filling out Form 13.
Thanks and regards,
