Ans: You can get it from the nearest EPFO office. The online link on the EPFO portal was not working when I tried.

Ans: You can start your pension from EPF in the following circumstances:
• At the age of 58: This is the normal age of retirement for EPF members. If you have completed 10 years of service, you will be eligible to start your pension at the age of 58.
• After the age of 60: If you defer your pension beyond the age of 58, you will be eligible to receive a higher pension amount. For every year that you defer your pension, you will receive an additional 4% of your pension amount.
To start your pension from EPF, you will need to fill out Form 10D and submit it to your EPFO office. You will also need to provide proof of your age and service.

Ans: Full withdrawal of EPF funds is allowed only after retirement. However, early retirement is considered by the EPFO only after the employee attains the age of 55.

To claim your EPF money, you will need to submit the following documents:
• Form 19 (EPF Withdrawal Form)
• Self-attested copy of your PAN card
• Self-attested copy of your Aadhaar card
• Cancelled cheque
• Proof of VRS (such as your VRS offer letter or termination letter)

You can submit these documents to your nearest EPFO office or online through the EPFO website.

Here is the step-by-step process for claiming your EPF money online:
1. Visit the EPFO website and login to your account.
2. Click on the "Online Services" tab.
3. Select the "Claim (Form-19, 10C & 11)" option.
4. Enter the required details and submit the form.
5. You will receive an SMS notification once your claim has been processed.
6. The EPF money will be credited to your bank account within 10-15 days.

Please note that the above information is based on the current EPF rules and regulations. The EPFO may change the rules from time to time. It is always advisable to visit the EPFO website or contact your EPFO office for the latest information.
