EPFO News: Employees’ Provident Fund Organization (EPFO) has given a new facility to its members. In this, EPF members can take advantage of the Kovid Advance facility even after leaving the job. According to the EPFO, if an EPFO ​​member has lost his job, then Kovid can withdraw money from his PF with the advance facility. However, keep in mind that the EPFO ​​member has not made the final EPF withdrawal. Being an advance, the employee is not required to put the money back in the Provident Fund (PF) account.

EPFO has given the facility to withdraw PF advance in the time of COVID19 pandemic. Although there is a facility of partial withdrawal from PF account even earlier, but it can be availed in case of some special situations like medical emergency, education of children, marriage, etc. Under the EPFO ​​Advance Scheme, subscribers can withdraw basic salary and dearness allowance for three months or up to 75 per cent of the member’s deposit in the EPF account, whichever is less. Due to this, EPF members, especially those whose monthly salary is less than Rs 15,000, have got a big help during the Kovid-19 epidemic.
