PF: Every employed individual in India possesses PF accounts. One twelfth of the employee’s salary is contributed to the PF account. The identical portion is contributed by the company, namely the employer. A PF account functions similarly to a savings account. Funds can also be taken out from it if required. EPFO offers you the option to withdraw funds based on various requirements. EPFO has established rules concerning PM accounts. It also includes established guidelines for withdrawing from PF accounts. If an individual exits a job and remains without employment for a month, he may withdraw as much as 75% of the balance in his PF account. Conversely, if he stays jobless for two months, he may also take out the remaining 25% of the funds.
If a PF account holder takes another job shortly after resigning and his UAN stays active, he will not be able to withdraw the PF funds from the previous job. To achieve this, he must move his PF account. Only after that can he take out his money.
