Our reader, Jobin, has suggested a solution to the problem. His comment, given below, is reproduced here. Appreciate him sharing with all of us. Have raised it on Twitter here, Keeping my fingers crossed.

The solution suggested by EPF is “You are advised to approach the employer for rectifying the same by submitting revised return to the EPFO for merging the EPS contribution to EPF”
Hello all,
I am also facing the issue in PF transfer due to the reason that my basic salary is above 15000 when I started the job. After running from pillar to post for around 2 years, finally, I found a solution for this issue. I would like to post the same here for the benefit of all. Request @Bemoneyaware to update in your article.
The solution is that
Step 1) the previous employer (who remitted EPS) has to sent a request to EPFO to merge both EPS and EPF accounts.
Step 2) The EPFO will be able to process the EPS and EPF merger based on this request
Step 3) Finally the member will have only EPF account. Then one will be able to transfer the EPF account to current employer.
Currently completed Step 1 and awaiting Step 2 to be completed.
You might have to follow up
Take the letter from the employer for rectification & submit it to the EPFO office for merging the accounts.
Continuously raise the grievances on the portal for this rectification. this will put some pressure on the EPFO office.
Still facing the issue, then simply raise the RTI application with detailed questions & ask for the reason for the delay. (RTI application fee is just Rs.10). They have to reply to the RTI within 30 days.
Understanding the EPS Contribution
For new members joining the EPF scheme on or after 1 September 2014, the contribution is required to be made only under the PF and insurance scheme – as such employees are not eligible for membership under the pension scheme.
New EPF members enrolled on or after September 1, 2014, and having a salary of more than INR 15,000 month at the time of joining, will not become members of the EPS. Accordingly, the entire contribution of 24% (from the employee and employer) will go to the provident fund account of the employee. The image from the Document on EPF site is shown below
EPS Contribution EPF document
How the EPF, EPS Contribution is calculated
- 12% of Employee’s Basic and Dearness allowance goes to EPF.
- 8.33% of Employer contribution for Salary less than 15,000 and a maximum limit of 1250 goes towards EPS.
- Remaining 3.67% of Employer contribution goes to EPF.
- If Employee Basic and DA are more than 15,000 then entire Employer contribution should go to EPF.
The following table shows the EPF, EPS Contribution for employees who joined before and after 1 Sep 2014 and have a Basic salary more than 15,000
Employer-Employee Contribution in EPF EPS
Who is at fault for EPS contribution for Employee with Basic more than 15,000?
Both employer and EPFO.
But also the employee, because
- he faces the problem during Transfer or Withdrawal
- and misses out the interest also as some part of his salary, is diverted to EPS which does not earn interest.
Employer and EPFO both know the joining date of the employee in the company. The Challan which employer submits to EPFO has UAN number, Name of Employee, Basic Wage and EPF calculation as shown in the image below. But it does not have the joining date.

The Video below shows how does employer makes ECR Challan, Uploads it in EPF website for Employer.
What can be done once Employee realizes that there is EPS Contribution?
The Employee needs to follow up for no fault of his. Yes, it sucks but you need to fight out to get your money. For your next job make sure that your entire Employer contribution is going towards EPF
We are looking for the solution, are in talks with many EPF consultants. Some of the solutions by our readers that have met some success are given below. We appreciate the efforts of our readers, Jobin & Yash. If you have found any other workable solution do let us know.

Hi Sir,
I have applied Form 19 for full settlement on May 2023. It got rejected 5 times, saying multiple times.
1) verification of high value claim confirmation not received on letter head by the employer and verification not received by the bank
2) PHOTOCOPY OF BANK PASSBOOK NOT ATTESTED BY THE AUTHORIZED SIGNATORY
3) FORM 15 G / 15H, PAN CARD NOT SUBMITTED BY MEMBER
4) UAN CLAIM ¿ CANCELLED CHEQUE NOT AS PER KYC BANK DETAILS
Point 1: Company gave wrong exit date and amount of mine. I communicated the same to the employer. This is a fault.
Point 2: I have attached a proper cheque with (Name, Acc No and IFSC code). Why the EPFO is asking for the Passbook? Either cheque or passbook is enough rite? EPFO online portal has only max 500 KB attachment limit, can’t attach both the images.
Point 3: Why is EPFO asking for the FORM 15G, when my PF account is more than 10 years. As per rules >5 years, it is not mandatory rite?
Point 4: Cheque is exactly as per Bank KYC details, then why this rejection reason?
Could you please help me in this regard sir?
I am currently working in 4th company and i didnt transfer all my previous 3 Pf to current company. So i have tried to transfer my 3rd company which is previous one to current company through online transfer and it got rejected two times with the below reason.
1. Wages More than 15000 wages, pension amount paid Till date of Exit.
2. Father name differs
I have tried to contact my previous employment multiple times and simply said no mistake from our end and nothing can be done from my end. But i have replied back to the Previous company stating that If whoever joins after 2014 sep and wages more than 15000 needs to submit FORM 3A and to merge the EPS to EPF. Then they gave clarification like below
“As per PF act member who joined before 01/Sep/2014 and their wage could be any thing they are eligible for EPS.
Member who joins after 01/Sep/2014 and their PF Wage(Basic wage) is less than 15000 they are eligible for EPS(Pension).
Member who joins after 01/Sep/2014 and their PF Wage(Basic wage) is more than 15000 they are not eligible for EPS (Pension).
If the member joins before 01/Sep/2014 if they withdraw the pension(FORM 10C) they are service got closed, and if person joined any company from there, their service will be counted and if this person wage is less than 15K again they will eligible or else they will be considered as non EPS.
Note: in your case your first service is started in 01-NOV-2018 and first PF wage is 15000 so your eligible for EPS and as per your declaration we have paid the EPS . if any transfer in came in our company then you will be considered as eps as PF record they can see only one account in their ledger so they considered your service as first service, if you made any previous transfer to our company they can see the details in their record(Which is actually not possible for transfer right now because our company is not your active or present account).
For this we need to submit your form 11 and clarification letter as your eligible for EPS since from your first service and your joining wage is 15000 only.
I have requested to goahead with FORM 11 along with clarification letter and now my question is ” Based on my First Company PF passbook, EPF Wages mentioned as 15000, that means i am eligible for Pension right and after that EPF wages were more than 15000 then all companies paid to Pension till the current company.
Now the previous company submit FORM 11 is right option to choose instead of submit 3A since i am eligible for Pension account. Please confirm. Now my previous stating one point that “if we submitted FORM 11 you will be considered as NON EPS member in our company and you can transfer it to present account and in future your claims will be rejected due to this reason at the time you need to submit FORM 3A to bifurcate the EPS which is your trying to merge now”. What exactly this point meaning and do i face the same issue transfer my first & second company PF transfer to current company, do i need to ask them to send Revised FORM 11 to EPFO same as the immediate previous company following.”
Please confirm and clarify my queries and following up with so many people no one is giving proper information.
1. In passbook, if EPF wages shows 15000 in first company, AM I eligible to EPS ? Even current wages are more than 15000, EPS is deducted so is that fine later to transfer or withdraw?
2. How to transfer my first & second company PF transfer to current company? is the issue observes again with same rejection reason?
3. To correct Father Name, joint declaration form is enough to submit through Current company or Do i need to submit joint declaration form from both companies(Previous & current)
Hello sir, while I changed the company I transfered through online
And it was rejected for below reason:
“EPS CONTRIBUTIONS MERGED PLEASE CLARIFY 2) FATHERs NAME DIFFERS”
When contacted PF office via email they mentioned as stated below:
“Your transfer in received with EPS service from previous office. But current employer merged EPS with PF. Therefore claim was rejected seeking clarification for the same”.
Pls guide me whom to contact and get my problem resolved.
Please acknowledge my request.
I request you to please mention the which PF office
Hello,
This is my experience with RTI filing of PF transfer which was rejected for >15000/- WAGES. CHECK FOR ELIGIBILITY OF MEMBERSHIP UNDER EPS 1995 2) FATHERs NAME DIFFERS.
Initially, I raised a request online for PF Transfer. I was trying to transfer PF from my past employer which was from unexempted employer to an exempted employer. It got rejected.
So when visited the PF office personally and asked reason for rejection, I was asked to submit a clarification from my past company on the Past Company letter head stating the reason why Employee EPS share was paid to Employer EPS share along with the attested PF Passbook statement from my past company. I visited my past employer office and My Past employer has given clarification stating that it was done by mistake. So I got the clarification document from my past employer on the company letter head and also go attested the PF Passbook statement. This time I have placed the transfer request manually using Form 13 along with the above mentioned documents. So, when I submitted these documents manually, the PF office has marked an ink stamp on the clarification letter which I got from my past employer stating that they have received the documents. I HAVE TAKEN A PHOTO OF THIS INK STAMPED DOCUMENT AS A PROOF THAT PF OFFICE HAS RECEIVED THIS DOCUMENT(LATER THIS DOCUMENT WAS USEFUL FOR RAISING AN RTI AS A PROOF). I was mentioned that this time the PF transfer would be successful. I was with lot of hope that the transfer would be done but after 1 week, the transfer was rejected with the same above reason.
So I visited the PF office again and when enquired, got the reply that the documents need to be verified by PF commissioner and it would take 2-3 weeks for the process to be done and asked me to raise a claim request after one month. So I waited for another 1 month and raised the request again. This time also PF got rejected mentioning the same above reason. I went to the PF office again and this time they asked me to submit the Past Employer’s Offer letter and first two months of salary slips attested from my past employer again. So again got the Past Employment Offer letter and two salary slips attested and submitted the documents again and waited for 45 days. Then I raised the transfer request again and this time also PF transfer got rejected mentioning the same reason. So I visited the PF office again and they said that the offer letter and salary slips need to be approved by PF Commissioner and asked me to wait for another 45 days. After 45 days I again raised a request and again it got rejected with same reason. Then again after every month for 2 times I raised the transfer request and again it was rejected. By this time I got sure that this request would not work.
So finally I raised an RTI along with the ink stamped document attached to the RTI. I thought my pf transfer would be completed in 2-3 days as mentioned by others here but it took 2-3 days for the RTI to be assigned to the correct PF office. Then for 1 week there was no change in the status of the RTI. Later it got assigned to an associate. Then for another next 1 week there was no change in the status. I thought that there is no use in filing RTI. But after two days I got a reply from the PF commissioner stating that they have merged the EPS and EPF account and I can raise the online transfer request again. So again I raised the request. I thought my PF would be transferred. But after couple of days when I looked at the status, again it was rejected. So again I went to the PF office and said that I have filed and RTI and got reply from PF commissioner stating that the EPF accounts were merged and showed the RTI reply doucment asked the reason for rejection. They said the transfer was rejected due to bulk upload and asked me to raise to the request again. So by now I have lost all hopes of PF transfer. I thought lets file another RTI file another mentioning that my PF transfer still got rejected even though it was mentioned in my first RTI that the PF accounts got merged. So I filed second RTI stating that even though it was mentioned in the first RTI that I can file transfer again, it got rejected and asked them if the PF office has really merged the EPS and EPF account. As usual, it took 2-3 days for the the second RTI to be assigned to the concerned PF Office. But this time this second RTI got assigned to a wrong PF office. And for next 10 days there was no response on the second RTI. I thought the RTI has lost its power. During this time, I did not know what to do. I was thinking the reason for transfer rejection after first RTI was bulk upload, so I thought, this time I will try a bit different. This time I would raise the request again, and instead of getting the online transfer request getting attested through my current employer, this time I have selected the option of getting the transfer request attested through my past employer in the online transfer. So I have raised the online transfer request again. Now coming to the 2nd RTI request, after 14 days, I got a call from the PF office stating that the RTI was assigned to a wrong PF office and they has assigned it to the correct PF office. Now, I thought that it would take another 14 days for the reply. So I felt that lets look at the status of the PF transfer filed again. And when I checked the status of the PF transfer which I asked for attestation through my past employer, this time the PF got transferred. WhoHooooooooo! I was very happy! And after two days when I looked at the status of the 2nd RTI, I got a reply again from the PF office stating that they have rejected due to oversight and they have mentioned that this time the transfer is approved and also provided me an Annexure K.
So, based on my experience I feel that RTI still works. So, as mentioned by others here, it will not be completed in 2-3 days. I may take a bit longer or even less time. But finally it will work. So guys, have trust and keep trying. Its your hard earned money. All the Best!
Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for sharing. Can you please share the clarification letter from your past employer for merging pension account with epf. It would be helpful for me.
Hi
Very nicely written ….
for my case … I joined my first company A in March 2015 with basic salary more than 15k monthly then I joined B, C and D companies … All of them were contributing to my EPS.
I could transfer all my funds from
A to B then B to C companies
Now My funds are with C’s PF account and D’s PF account.
When I placed PF transfer request from C to D , it failed due to above said error (Contribution in eps after 2014 with salary more than 15k, please clarify)
Now My questions are
1) All A, B, C and D were contributing wrongly ?
2) Why my previous transfers were accepted/allowed but only recent/last transfer request was rejected ?
3) Now as per solution I need to request employer C for a merger of EPS into EPF … Do I also need to request merger to A and B companies as well ? or only to C company, that will merger all my EPS funds from A and B companies as well)
4) Once EPF is transferred from one company to another company what happens to EPS. Does it also get transferred ? Who owns that EPS, whom to request for the merger of that EPS fund.
Please help ..
Thanks in advance
How to make merger request ?
Or can I claim entire EPS amount and close my EPS account ?
I am Kannan, Joined company xxx in Aug 2012 with a salary of 10k/month and I moved on to the second company in the year 2017 August and the third company in Aug 2018. In all three companies, I had both PF/EPS contributions.
Instead of transferring my first company PF/EPS, I had withdrawn both the amount and due to which my service history is erased. While trying to transfer PF from a second to a third company, it is rejected due to my wages being more than 15000 and I am not eligible for the pension contribution.
I have spoken with my current employer regarding this and stopped pension contribution and they are in the process of submitting revised form 3A to the EPFO to transfer pension contribution to the PF.
But my second company is not responding to this issue, how can I get my service history transferred from second to the third employer.
Was the second company an EPFO trust?
If not, then you can submit the transfer request to your 3rd employer
Go through our article http://bemoneyaware.com/why-transfer-old-epf-account-new-account/ for more details
My joining year of first company was 2011 and had withdrawn the EPF amount completely. When i joined third company during 2016 i had received new UAN number and now am trying to transfer the EPF amount from third to fourth company EPFO rejecting the transfer claim with the same reason of Wages more than 15k not eligible for pension contribution . I think due to the UAN number changes impacting my transfer.
In this case, what action can i take from my end? ( Because am still eligible for pension contribution and joining year was 2011) but i need to prove EPFO officers.
Which year did you join second company?
Were EPS contribution made in the second company?
Please check your EPF passbook of different companies.
For pension check our article http://bemoneyaware.com/eps/ for details
Yes, my second company is a trust. They had transferred the PF amount but not able to transfer the service history.
What does your EPF passbook say?
Claim Rejected NON EPS MEMBER
What should I do after this now?
Which claim have you made?
Did you try claiming a Pension?
Are you contributing to Pension? Is your basic more than 15,000
My joining date is post Sep 2014 with basic pay more than 15k. My previous employer correctly made entire contribution to EPF only as explained above, but my current employer has made the mistake for contributing to EPS along with EPF. Still my transfer claim from previous to current employer got rejected from same reason.
What’s the solution in this case?
Hi Team
My PF transfer from 2nd employer to 3rd got rejected with comments “Your Claim [ Claim Id – ******** ] has been rejected due to : 1) WAGES MORE THEN 15000/- NOT ELIGIBLE PENSION 2) FATHERs NAME DIFFERS
I started my career with my 1st employer, post sept 2014 with basic salary less than 15k and PF transfer from 1st to 2nd employer had no issues.
With the 2nd employer the basic pay was more than 15k.
When I connected with my 2nd employer(2nd) to submit the clarification letter regarding the EPS amount contributed in the pf account, he is asking me to get the PF statement in month-wise format from 1st company. My 1st company has exempted trust and their std PF statement format is in annual format for ex-employees, hence they refused to share the statement in monthly wise.
Now my 2nd employer is saying that without verifying the monthly-wise PF statement from my 1st company, he can’t proceed further as PF remittance are correctly remitted from him.
What actions I can take next?
When i raised a form 19 to close my pf it was rejected given the reason The member is getting higher wages pl furnishe any previous employment .. what does this mean..
When did you start working? Before or After 1 Sep 2014.
Was your basic wage more than 15,000 per month
Was EPS deducted?
After 1st September 2014 PF Department said if any person starts his new job with a salary more than Rs. 15000 then his pension contribution would be nil
Take the letter from the employer for rectification & submit it to the EPFO office for merging the accounts. Do we have a format for the letter ?
No I don’t have it,
I have asked Labour Law Advisor who are experts in EPF.
This is for having Basic above 15K right?
Hi Sir
I am facing a similar issue as well and need your help to get this done.
My 1st job – Started in 2010 ; left in Feb 2014 – I was getting both pf and eps. I claimed both amounts and went to study MBA and hence did not work for 3 years.
2nd Job – Joined June 2017 ; Resigned April 2021 – I was getting both PF and EPS.
3rd Job – Joined April 2021 – I am only getting PF and no EPS
My transfer claims are getting rejected twice now. What could be done. Please help
What are the reasons for rejection?
Hi,
My claim is rejected with below reason, please could you help how to fix it ?
Your Claim [ Claim Id – KDMAL220150109839 ] has been rejected due to : 1) WAGE IS MORE THAN 15000 BUT PENSION CONTRIBUTION GIVEN, REVIESE ECR 2) FATHERs NAME DIFFERS 3) CLAIM ALREADY SETTLED
OMG, are they asking you to choose one of options?
Which claim have you applied for : Withdrawal or Transfer?
Let’s see the problems one by one
1. Did you join after 1 Sep 2014 with a basic of more than Rs 15,000 then your employer should have not deducted the EPS.
Check your passbook and talk to your employer to revise the return
Read our article Basic Salary More than 15000,EPS Contribution,Rejection of Transfer or EPF Claim for more details.
2. File a EPF complaint to know the FATHER’s NAME as per EPFO records
3. Check your claim history &/passbook
How to file EPF complaint is explained here
My claim was rejected and the reason cited was: “Claim Rejected DATE OF JOINING AFTER 01/09/2014 WAGES ARE MORE THAN 15000/- STILL EPS CONTRIBUTION IS DEDUCTED”
My DOJ EPF and DOJ EPS is 14/03/2013. This is reflecting correctly on the EPFO portal. As per Passbook, Pension contribution was being deducted since April 2013.
I’m not sure why the claim was rejected, as per my interpretation it should not have been. Appreciate any assistance you can provide. I have migrated and I am overseas at the moment and need to get this sorted asap. Please help.
What does your Service History show?
Did you change the job and did not transfer the EPF?
My claim is getting due to the same EPS issue. My basic salary was 15000 when I joined my first organization. As per the company I should be eligible for EPS but still the claim for transfer is getting rejected with the below reason Wages > 15000 but still member of EPS.
I am not getting any proper response after raising grievance multiple times. Any idea on how to resolve this ?

HI ,
My PF transfer request got rejected for below reASON
New:UAN
DOJ:Feb 2016
Your Claim [ Claim Id – PYBOM210850103109 ] has been rejected due to : 1) ERRONIOUS EPS CONTRIBUTION. NOT A EPS MEMBER AS WAGE EXCEEDS 15000 ON THE DATE OF JOINING 2) CLAIM ALREADY SETTLED
i am already eps member from 2012 from my first company but this account was part of old UAN and i tranfered this amount to current new UAN.
1.can i be member of EPS? still the rejection is correct or not? Please help me with solsution. Thanks!
Is your current employer deducting EPS or not?
If you have joined before Sep 2014 you can contribute to EPS else not.
Claim Rejected WAGE EXCEEDS 15000 NOT A EPS MEMBER. EMPLOYER TO CLARIFY THE SAME.
this employee joined before sept 2014
pls suggest to cllose the issue
My first employer has opened my EPS account even when wage was more than 15000. After several follow-ups and requests, my EPS contribution has been transferred to the EPF account (employer contribution) but without interest.
Since I was unaware of this issue, so I continued this EPS account in my second employment. The 2nd employer is a trust, not unexempted institution. So what process shall I follow if I want to transfer EPS contribution to the trust
Whether it is unexempted or a trust EPS money goes to EPFO.
You need to inform your employer and follow the process with them again.
They would have you refile the Challan with corrections
Ok, Thanks. I will follow up with them.
My PF claim got rejected for below-
1)PLEASE FORWARD PREVIOUS EPS SERVICE DETAILS FROM KN/WFF/3575066/1015977
2) Wages more than 15 T
Please help is there any solution?
New EPF members enrolled on or after September 1, 2014, and having a salary of more than INR 15,000 a month at the time of joining, will not become members of the EPS. Accordingly, the entire contribution of 24% (from the employee and employer) will go to the provident fund account of the employee.
So is your salary more than 15,000?
Is the contribution being done for EPS?
Please check your passbook.
Then talk to your employer as explained in http://bemoneyaware.com/view-epf-uan-passbook/
Hello sir,
My past employer has contributed entirely to EPF for first 5 months, then to both PF and pension for next 6 months, then to PF alone for the next 3 months. My basic above 15000 for the entire duration of employment in that company. The transfer was rejected saying “PENSION CONTRIBUTION NOT RECEIVED”
What type of letter should I get from the employer to correct this ? Is Form 3A needed ? Kindly help. Earlier, they rejected due to some other reason and I followed up and corrected it. Now, I have got this reason. Your guidance will help to explain to my employer as it is a small company.
Is this your first company or were you contributing to EPF before Sep 2014?
Check with your employer why is he not sticking to one method
Thanks for the reply Sir. This was my 2nd company. 1st company started deducting PF since Dec 2014 only. Is a letter from them sufficient to make this correction ?
My pf transfer claim is getting rejected frequently saying that EPS MERGED WITH EMPLOYER SHARE.CLARIFY
What should I do. Kindly help me to resolve this issue.

When did you join the company?
Was it after 1 Sep 2014?
Was your basic salary more than 15,000?

1. I was a contract employee until I joined in this company at the age of 30. So I don’t have any PF accounts or PF contributions for my previous companies. So what and where should I upload to state my situation. Is “ F-10C-RO.CHENNAI2@EPFINDIA.GOV.IN “ an email ID?
2. I had attached a cancelled check leaf at the time of withdrawal. Should I attest it from bank manager?
You can submit the details by raising the complaint at EPFO site http://bemoneyaware.com/epf-grievance-complaint-online/
Yes it would be good to get the cancelled cheque attested
Hi Sir, my pf transfer request cancelled by asking to submit the revised form 3a from privious employer. Epfo said that they will merge eps share getting approval from compitent authority. Any idea how long it may take?
Sad to hear.
As EPFO is Govt related we don’t know.

Hello all,
I am also facing the issue in PF transfer due to the reason that my basic salary is above 15000 when I started the job. After running from pillar to post for around 2 years, finally I found a solution for this issue. I would like to post the same here for the benefit of all. Request @Bemoneyaware to update in your article.
The solution is that
Step 1) the previous employer (who remitted EPS) has to sent a request to EPFO to merge both EPS and EPF accounts.
Step 2) The EPFO will be able to process the EPS and EPF merger based on this request
Step 3) Finally the member will have only EPF account. Then one will be able to transfer the EPF account to current employer.
Currently I completed Step 1 and awaiting Step 2 to be completed.
Thanks a lot Jobin. The solution is some ray of hope.
Appreciate your sharing.
Keep up updated.
I have updated the article and shared your suggestion on Twitter
Here some tips from my experience with same issue
Take letter from employer for rectification & submit it to EPFO office for merging the accounts.
Continuously raise the grievances on portal for this rectification. this will put some pressure on EPFO office.
Still facing the issue, then simply raise the RTI application with detailed questions & ask for the reason for delay. (RTI application fee is just Rs.10). They have to reply the RTI within 30 days.
Hope this will solve the issue.
Hello, Even my PF transfer has got rejected with the same reason. But the problem is when I stated my 1st job (post Sept,14) my basic pay was less than 15k where as now with 2nd job it’s more than 15k. Now the PF transfer from 2nd job to 3rd got rejected.
Do the 2nd employer needs to send request to epfo to merge the EPS and EPF? while I was eligible for EPS in my 1st job and not in 2nd job??
My 2nd employer is saying that PF contribution were made as like the 1st company and has no fault in them.
Please clarify.
Once you start your contribution in EPS then one cannot stop it.
So your employer would continue to deduct EPS.
It is a max of 1250 per month.
So you just have to live with it.
Hi Jobin,
I’ve the same issue. My ex employer is not responding. Could you please tell me more on How I can get this resolved? Can I withdraw the amount somehow? Or can i request EPFO to merge my EPF and EPS?
Try raising the complaint at EPF grievance site explained in the article How to register EPF complaint at EPF Grievance website online
Hi,
I got the below reply from epfigms:
“You are advised to approach the employer for rectifying the same by submitting revised return to the EPFO for merging the EPS contribution to EPF”
I’ve been sending emails to my previous employer but they do not seem to be helping.
Please suggest what can be done
Hi, I am in the same boat as you. My transfer needs to be done from Delhi to bangalore and EPFO Delhi has merged epf and eps but i dont see the transfer on portal and can’t seem to connect to EPFO bangalore.
What can i do?
Did you get your transfer completed? Did it require an RTI?
Hi Jobin,
Is your issue resolved?
Hello, I worked at a company for 15 yrs and then in 2017 , i joined another company from 2017 and worked in that till Feb2021.
Currently i have left my Job & After waiting for 2 months ( 60 days unemployed ) i applied for EPF withdrawal through Form 19 in May2021 and today got my response :
Your Claim [ Claim Id -** ] has been rejected due to : 1) PREVIOUS TR RECD NOT ELIGIBLE FOR PENSION MEMBERSHIP BUT ESTT REMITTED PENSION CONTRIBUTION 2) FATHERs NAME DIFFERS
Hence my Q is :
1) I see that my previous employer with whom i worked for 15 yrs deducted my EPS pension but when i got my EPF transferred to new employer in 2017, the Passbook had 0 contribution for EPS. which i understand that after 2014 , if somebody has basic salary above 15000/- they are not eligible for EPS.
So now how do i rectify this issue so that i can withdraw the full amount as i dont know what this point no. 1 means , if my first employer remitted pension contribution then how am i responsible for it and what is my fault in that . I read online that i need to get EPS & EPF merged since i am not currently employed , how do i get this merger ? or if this is the right way to move forward ?
Kindly help if anyone can through some light on this ?
Even i got same rejection reason.. father nme is correct and dont know what is the issue. Claim rejected in the 3rd time, after raising grievance during 1st rejection, they mentioned bifurcation of amt is done and i can reapply.and again i got same rejection reason..dont know what to do
The rule for pension is not applicable if you have been working before 2014 which is in your case.
For example, I have been working before 2014 and my EPS is deducted.
in Transfer of EPF, passbook will show EPS as 0 as explained in the article http://bemoneyaware.com/eps-transfer-epf/
Does earlier Employee history show up in your UAN?
Did your earlier employee have Private trust?
I face similar issue, could you please provide guidance for my specific case. I started working in 2011 and have been contributing to PF since then. My claim got rejected with this messages –
‘PREVIOUSLY EPS MEMBER IN ANOTHER ESTT. NO EPS TILL 04/2020 PL CONTACT EMPLOYER’
Since 2011 i have worked in 4 organisations, first 2 of these organisations made contribution to EPS but for the other 2 i see contribution as 0 for EPS. Further more the organisation i worked with in 2011 i had different UAN than the organisations i worked with later. I had got these 2 UANs merged at some point of time.
On emailing PF i got below reply:
“If you have any closed or live EPS account with d.o.j. prior to 09/14 you may be considered as a EPS member. For that, kindly submit F/11 and furnish that previous a/c number in F/11 to process this claim otherwise if you have closed the EPS account for the period prior to 09/2014 on the date of processing the claim, you are not considered as a EPS member. For that, kindly contact your employer to submit revised F/3A along with employer letter to merge EPS with EPF.”
Could someone please help to guide what should be next step for me?
Thanks!
What did you do to EPF for the jobs before 1 Sep 2014?
Did you withdraw your EPF money or transferred it?
Can you send your EPF passbook to bemoneyaware@gmail.com so that we can check it and answer better

If someone knows any solution about this issue, kindly let me know.
Thanks,
I joined organization XXX after post graduation (year 2016) In PF form , I mentioned that , I was not member of EPF and EPS previously. As per rule, as my basic was
more than 15000, i was only memeber of EPF scheme only.
In 2018 , I switched to new company YYY, But this time, I mistakenly mentioned that I am member of EPF and EPS scheme . I am getting 1250 amount in my EPS account.
In 2019 , the YYY company got closed and merged to its parent company ZZZ . In company ZZZ also, I am member of both EPF and EPS scheme.
I tried once PF transfer from XXX to ZZZ , its got success .
I tried once to transfer PF from YYY to ZZZ , its got rejected with EPF Wages is more than Rs15,000.
I have already informed about my mistake to current company ZZZ . They are saying submit a fresh pf document and duly signed letter to PF office mentioning about the mistake . The timeline to resolve this issue ( close eps account) can take 1 year.
Now i am moving to a new company after few weeks , I am planning to mention in new company joining PF doc as ” I am member of EPF scheme only”.
Can someone please let me know, if my process is correct below
1)I will join the new company and i will mention there , I was member of epf scheme only previously. So that , they will not deposit 1250 in my eps account
2) I will wait for the issue resolve from ZZZ company regarding eps account close . once the issue got resolved , I will transfer epf balance to my new company
My PF got rejected for transfer to current employer with the reason below:
1) Wrong EPS deduction seen in system in 2018/12.
2) Certificate A/B/C/D/E/F not enclosed/ Signed.
Pls let me know the reason.
Thanks in advance.
Hi,
My EPF claim got rejected due to the below reason. They said my employer is the reason. I followed up and they told they have given a letter for this to the commissioner a month back. But still it is getting rejected. Do any one knows how long will it takes to merge the accounts?
Your Claim [ Claim Id – PYBOM190XXXXXXXXX ] has been rejected due to : 1) MEMBER HAVING EPS MEMBERSHIP IN PREVIOUS ESTABLISHMENT,PRESENT EPS CONTRIBUTION NOT REMITTED 2) CERTIFICATE A/B/C/D/E/F NOT ENCLOSED / SIGNED
There is no clarity from EPFO on EPS deduction if the salary is more than 15,000.
We again raised the issue on twitter here https://twitter.com/bemoneyaware/status/1174653844367654912

BBA,ACMAI.
This is the employer side mistake.
You need to speak to your employer.
Did you check your passbook?
I had raised a grievance for the same issue. They asked me to provide F/11 (previous service particulars). Not sure how and to whom do I provide this F/11.
Hi guys,
Please update here if any one has taken necessary steps for the problem. So that it would be helpful to others.
I just sent a mail to my previous employer & again raised a grievance in EPF (Asking about the solution). Will update here how it goes….
Thanks..this is a grey area and no one knows how it pans out
you have to write a letter to the PF commissioner of your circle (from the employer side) and handover the letter in person to the concerned case worker alongwith 2 copies of your PAN card, For 15G, you can take an acknowledgement in a duplicate letter (photocopy) for your reference.
My transfer claim got rejected with remark “Your Claim has been rejected due to : 1) WAGES MORE THAN RS.15000/-NOT ELIGIBLE FOR PENSION MEMBERSHIP BUT ESTT REMITTED PENSION CONTRIBUTION 2) CERTIFICATE A/B/C/D/E/F NOT ENCLOSED / SIGNED” .I have raised grievance for this problem with EPFO multiple times. But they are not responding properly. I am not sure how I can get my PF transferred to my current Employer PF account. Can you please suggest?
I am also facing the same issue. If anyone knows solution please post it here.
Have you got any reply yet.

Hello Team,
I have issue with my PF transfer. I shall explain you the reasons..
I had joined Accenture on 9th Feb 2016 and worked there for one year and left on 24th Mar’2017. I joined another organisation and had given the UAN number of Accenture and both are linked to one UAN ID.
Before to this i worked in IBM for 4.4 years and i had a UAN which i withdrew it completely. At the time of joining in Accenture they created new UAN number. Now IBM UAN is a dummy UAN since i have withdrawn the complete amount.
My Accenture PF is not transfered to the current organisation and when i initated it was rejected saying “Salary is more than 15000 and eligible for EPS membership but establishment has not extended the same and not remitted EPS contribution.”
Now i am in a position were i cannot transfer nor withdraw. Can you please advise and suggest me what to be done.
Regards
Vineeth

Hi Vineeth/Abhijeet/HImanshu,

Regards,
Ashok
Sir, your employer has to write a letter saying that the merger of EPS+PF of yours alongwith the UAN Number (should be quoted in the letter)…this letter which should be signed with the authorized signatory of your company (check with HR who is authorized signatory).. and take two copies of it (one original+one duplicate photocopy) and submit it in person to the concerned case worker along with Form 15G, 2 copies of clearly visible PAN card.. your claim will be settled in 15 working days
Dear Krishna
I am also stuck with the same problem..wanted to check…will EPFO merge eps and pf ..even if my current organization has a trust ….or epfo will merge eps + pf only if both are with EPFO…please clarify.

Are you not planning to join a new company? It is better to transfer.
Please speak with your company ASAP as why did they do it?

I am also facing the similar issue. I have withdrawn PF and eps contribution from my first org. 2nd .org started from 2015 and the PF transfer is not happening to my current org PF account. Let me know if I have to submit any document.
Why is the transfer not happening?
Did you submit the papers for transfer to new/old organization
Is it a trust or regional EPFO?
For those of us who had joined before 2014 and the basic pay is more than Rs. 15000 now, can we stop the EPS contribution? In fact, is it possible to completely opt out of both EPF & EPS once your basic pay is more than Rs. 15000?
No you cannot opt out of EPS, Fortunately or unfortunately.
Hi sir/madem,
