PF Withdrawn Issues

[dilipmevada]

I resigned from prev employer in may 2008. As i was travelling immediately after that, I applied for PF withdraw to previous employer August 2008.
My prev employer help very much for this proecess. Than after two month i started followup regarding the status of PF withdraw, Last week I got information my prev employer got information from PF office is

"Your pf settlement claims have been processed on 25th March 2009 and the cheques have also been issued.
In your application form, you have given the details of your bank account with Axis Bank, Gujarat and PFO has forwarded the cheques to that address only. Please check with the bank and get back to us."

Than after i check with the bank and also check account statement,but not found any transaction related to PF credit amount.

I aslo talk with bank managar where i have account, but he told me that we haven't received any check from PF office related to my account.

My prev employee also got information "PF Office has not received the cheques back. Hence they should be lying with the bank. Please check and request them to return the cheques. Then only PFO will issue fresh cheques."

My question is :

• now what to do ?

Dear Dilip

Option/s U have:

1. File RTI with pf office for the status of refund. Reply ll clear the details.

2. File RTI with pf office and ask for the settlement statement & copy of proof that the cheque was sent to your bank on 25 th March.

For detailed information on how to draft & file an RTI application, please see the "All About RTI" links on the homepage & RTI Guide section of the portal.
