EPFO's big gift: These 5 big changes will happen for crores of employees..

EPFO: Employees Provident Fund Organization, i.e., EPFO, ​​​​is soon going to bring a new digital platform for its more than 8 crore members, named EPFO ​​​​3.0. This new system is expected to start in 2025, and it will provide many new and easy facilities to PF account holders. There will be 5 major changes related to EPFO ​​​​, which will benefit crores of employees.

Big IT companies like Infosys, Wipro, and TCS have been selected to create this platform. Earlier, it was planned to launch it in June 2025, but due to some technical issues, it has been delayed a bit.

You will be able to withdraw PF money from an ATM.
The most special thing about this new system is that now you will be able to withdraw your PF money directly from the ATM. For this, you just have to activate your Universal Account Number, i.e., UAN, and link Aadhaar to your bank account. With this, if you suddenly need money, then you will be able to withdraw money from your PF account immediately without any long process. This facility will be very useful, especially in an emergency.

You will also be able to withdraw funds through UPI.
Apart from this, in EPFO ​​3.0, you will also be able to withdraw your PF money through UPI. Nowadays, the use of UPI is increasing very fast in India, and by joining this system, EPFO ​​will provide even faster facilities to its members. If you suddenly need money, then you will be able to withdraw your PF money without any hassle through the UPI app. This will end the old and long process of claiming.

Facility to update the claim

Apart from this, you will not need to go to the EPFO ​​​​office to make minor corrections or update the claim. You will be able to correct your account information, like name, date of birth, etc., through online OTP verification. Also, you will be able to easily check the status of your claim. This will save your time, and the delay in the process will also be reduced.

There will be no problem in the claim process.
If a member dies, then his family will now have less trouble in getting the claim. Especially for minors, a guardianship certificate will no longer be required. This will help the family get quick financial help.

Will be able to use the new platform

Along with this, this new platform will work easily on mobile phones. You will be able to see your PF account information, deposit amount, and claim status anytime, anywhere. All these facilities will make EPFO ​​more transparent and user-friendly.
