I am working and while in the job, I had applied for PF through online (form-31) under the reason House construction. However, now I wish to change my bank account details as I want this amount PF settlement in my other bank account (not in my account that I had provided at the time of online claim). Currently, EPFO claim status reads as Under process. Can someone suggest to me how to change bank account details while the PF claim is in processing status?
