I am not able to get UAN for my pf account (worked in company 1991 to 2013). Employer requested to pf office 1year back.

Ans: You can decide on the following course of action:

1. You can contact the Grievance Redressal Officer at your regional EPFO office. You can also file a grievance with the EPFO's adalat, which is a grievance redressal forum.

2. You can file a Right to Information (RTI) to get clarity on the reason for the delay.

3. You can serve a legal notice to the EPFO for harassment and delay.

4. You can file a grievance with the Prime Minister's Office via the Centralised Public Grievance Redressal and Monitoring System (CPGRAMS).

But make doubly sure that their is no error on your or the employer's side.
