The Employees’ Provident Fund Organisation in its press release dated 15th June 2020 has launched a multi-location claim settlement facility that allows EPFO offices to settle online claims from any of its regional offices, across the country. All types of online claims i.e. provident fund, pension, partial withdrawal and claims, and transfer claims can be processed under this novel initiative.
In order to reduce the delays and for uniformly distributing the claim settlement related workload nationwide, EPFO has moved away from the existing system of geographical jurisdiction for claim processing by rolling out a multi-location claim settlement facility. It enables fast-tracking of the settlement process through the most appropriate engagement of EPFO’s workforce in all its regional offices across the country.
