Ans: You may have physical PF slips, documents from your employer which provide details of your EPF account during 1995 to 1999. If you have these records then you can visit EPFO and furnish application to link(merge) this account with your current UAN. They may need a letter from your employer during that phase, attesting the facts about your EPF account.

Ans: To update your service records and correct the discrepancies in your EPF and EPS contributions, follow these steps:

UAN Portal Login:
Log in to the UAN (Universal Account Number) portal using your UAN and password.
Verify your personal details and check the service history available.
Contact Previous Employers:
Reach out to your previous employers from 1992 to 2012 to obtain your PF account number and passbook or statement.
Request them to update your exit date and contribution details if they haven't already.
EPFO Grievance Cell:
If your previous employers are unresponsive or the company is closed, raise a grievance on the EPFO (Employees' Provident Fund Organisation) portal.
Provide details like company name, dates of employment, and UAN for quicker resolution.
PF Regional Office:
Visit the nearest PF regional office with necessary documents like ID proof, service certificates, and bank passbook.
Submit a written request to update your service history and contributions.
Legal Assistance:
If the above steps don't yield results, consider seeking legal assistance to resolve the issue.
Regular Follow-up:
Follow up regularly with EPFO or the grievance cell for updates on your request.
Keep copies of all communication and documents for future reference.
Remember to keep your communication polite and professional, and maintain records of all interactions for documentation. It may take some time to resolve, but persistence should help you correct your service records and contributions.

I have completed my msc in biochemistry n now doing internship but I am confusing about my future because I see this field don't pay me inuff for life even for future... N don't have more jobs in Maharashtra. I don't like production jobs but in Pharma only production pay much so what can I do .. Can u suggest me which job is high payable after Msc biochemistry
Ans: Hi Nandu,

Greetings!

Could you please let me know which year you completed your course and whether you are currently doing an internship or apprenticeship? An internship is part of the curriculum, where students gain practical training, sometimes with a stipend and sometimes without. After completing your course, you can opt for an apprenticeship, which typically lasts one to one and a half years and includes a stipend, usually split 50%-50% between the industry and government.

If you are in the internship phase, please inform me about the specific field you are working in. Initially, you may not expect a high salary, but after gaining expertise in your field, your compensation will improve. Typically, this takes about three years, so it’s important to focus on skill acquisition for a better future.

If your internship aligns with your field of study, I encourage you to continue and consider starting a medical lab or exploring opportunities in medical devices related to biochemistry. However, pursuing a career in pharmaceutical production may not be suitable for you, as it is a different field, and you may find it challenging to grasp the processes involved since you are currently inexperienced in that area.

Please share the specific field of your internship, and I would be happy to provide more tailored advice.
with regards
