EPFO : PF money is deducted from your salary every month, but you don’t receive a message or are unable to check your PF balance. This problem is about to end. EPFO has launched the Passbook Lite feature.
Now, members will be able to view their PF account information directly from the portal, without a separate login. Until now, to check PF balance or transactions, one had to log in separately to the Passbook portal. But with the new Passbook Lite feature, this problem has also been solved.
What is Passbook Lite?
Now, employees can view details of their contributions, withdrawals, and total balance directly on the member portal. Labor and Employment Minister Mansukh Mandaviya announced this service during a program. He said this improvement will not only enhance the convenience of PF members but also reduce the load on the existing passbook portal.
How to use Passbook Lite?
The EPFO has made the process of checking your PF balance extremely easy. Simply visit the EPFO’s official website, www.epfindia.gov.in, and select the Passbook Lite option. Enter your UAN number and you will receive an OTP on your mobile phone. Once you enter and submit the OTP, your PF passbook will appear on your screen.
Why was this feature necessary?
Previously, viewing your PF passbook was a difficult task for many people. Sometimes technical issues or network problems arose. To address this problem, the EPFO has launched this lightweight feature, allowing millions of users to easily access their PF details.
Now you will get transfer certificate online
When an employee changes jobs, their PF account is transferred online to the new company’s PF office. The old PF office then generates an Annexure K transfer certificate and sends it to the new PF office. Previously, this certificate was shared between PF offices, and members received it only upon separate requests. With the change, members will now be able to download the Annexure K directly from the member portal in PDF format. This feature will make PF transfers completely transparent. PF members will now be able to check the status of their transfer application online, ensuring their balance and service period have been correctly updated in their new account.
What benefits will the employees get?
Claim processing times will be reduced, and funds will be disbursed more quickly. Accountability at the field office level will increase. The approval process will be simplified, and service delivery will be expedited. These reforms will benefit approximately 80 million EPFO members. Services such as passbooks, transfer certificates, and claim status will now be available through a single login.
