Dear Dr Pananjay Tiwari, I am currently doing my BTech Final year. I would like to pursue masters in Data science in Australia. Though the opportunities are lesser when compared to the US . I prefer it for its work life balance and culture. But my parents wanted to send me to the US as I may get higher wages .What's your view on this.

Ans: Hi...Pursuing a master’s in Data Science in Australia can be a great choice if you prioritize work-life balance, a supportive cultural environment, and high-quality education. While it’s true that the US may offer more job opportunities and potentially higher wages in the tech field, Australia also provides solid career prospects, particularly for those who value a balanced lifestyle and a diverse, welcoming community. Ultimately, the decision should reflect what you consider most important for your personal and professional growth: if you seek a better quality of life and are willing to explore opportunities in a slightly smaller market, Australia could be the right fit; however, if maximizing earnings and accessing a larger job market are your main goals, the US might be more suitable.

Insurance, Stocks, MF, PF Expert - Answered on Apr 28, 2025

Money
We are a Private Limited Company with an employee strength of 60, and we strictly follow all PF rules. As per the applicable salary criteria, we contribute to the Provident Fund wherever required. Recently, we discovered that an employee who joined our company two years ago has an existing UAN linked to their Aadhaar. However, at the time of joining, the employee declared in Form 11 that they did not have a PF account. Based on this declaration, we did not contribute to their PF account. Now, the employee states that they were unaware of their PF account, and the UAN linked to their Aadhaar is currently inactive. Furthermore, they do not wish to activate their PF account. Given this situation, should we present Form 11 as valid proof for non-contribution, or are there any corrective actions required to comply with PF regulations? Kindly guide us on the appropriate steps to take in this matter.
Ans: Hello;

If the organisation is such that EPFO laws are applicable and if employee 's salary is as per the threshold given by EPFO (15 K basic +DA) then you don't have an option to avoid EPF.

The EPFO commissioner may issue your organisation a show cause notice as to why the form-11 submitted by the employee was not scrutinized thoroughly when it was submitted.

You may furnish joint declaration in the prescribed format to correct the mistake in form 11 and deposit all employer employee contributions till date with penalty as decided by the EPF Commissioner.

Actually such willful suppression of facts by the employee, which bring the employer into legal issues, deserves termination.

Seek advice from a lawyer specializing in labour and EPF laws, if required.

Best wishes;
