EPFO’s New Rule: Transfer Your PF Savings to Pension Account
The Employees’ Provident Fund Organisation (EPFO) has announced a new provision allowing members to transfer their PF corpus to their pension (EPS) account, instead of fully withdrawing it. This aims to promote long-term retirement security and discourage premature withdrawals.
What’s Changing
1️⃣ PF Withdrawal Timeline Updated:
Members can now withdraw their PF amount only after 12 months of unemployment.
2️⃣ EPS (Pension) Withdrawal:
Pension account settlement or withdrawal allowed only after 36 months of unemployment.
3️⃣ Option to Transfer:
Members can move their PF corpus into EPS, increasing their future monthly pension instead of taking a lump sum now.
4️⃣ Goal:
Encourage members to build a steady pension income rather than spending PF savings early.
What It Means for You
✔️ Strengthens your retirement fund – more money in EPS means higher monthly pension later.
✔️ Reduces premature withdrawals, ensuring better financial security post-retirement.
✔️ Helps members maintain continuity of service benefits even if they change jobs or face breaks in employment.
Key note :
EPFO is shifting focus from short-term cash withdrawals to long-term pension planning, ensuring that India’s workforce enjoys a stable income in their golden years.
