EPFO E-nomination: Every PF subscriber should choose a nominee so that in the event of his death, his nominee can get the benefits linked to his account. The EPFO had asked subscribers only last month to get their accounts e-nomination done.
New Delhi: The Central Provident Fund Organization (EPFO) provides many facilities and benefits to its subscribers. The process of documentation etc. related to this has also become very easy. Now subscribers can get many types of work done online only. One such process is e-nomination (EPFO E-nomination).
Every PF subscriber should choose a nominee so that in the event of his death, his nominee can get the benefits linked to his account. The EPFO had asked subscribers only last month to get their accounts e-nomination done. A circular in this regard was also issued by EPFO to all the regional offices. Earlier, the subscribers had to go to the office and get this work done offline, but this work can be done online through e-nomination.

There are many benefits of e-nomination. First of all, know that EPFO gives the benefit of life insurance up to Rs 7 lakh to the family of the employee on the death of the subscriber. In such a situation, if the details of the nomination are completed, then there is no problem of any kind later. The benefit of Employees Deposit Linked Insurance Scheme (EDLI Scheme) is available immediately.
If the subscribers make nomination online, then they will not have to bother to get NOC later.
Through e-nomination, account holder members can also make changes in the nominees. The biggest advantage of this will be that for e-nomination, the subscribers will be able to do the verification themselves. There will be no need to run here and there.
It has often been seen that due to non-filling of the nomination form of the PF subscriber, they face difficulty in taking insurance or other benefits. If the account holder dies due to any reason, then they have to make rounds of the EPFO branch. There is also a problem in completing all the documentation process.
After the death of the subscriber, the nominee can claim the insurance and EDLI benefits online by himself.
How will the e-nomination be done?
