Dear PF Experts, My daughter worked in 3 different organizations from 2011 to 2021 (one after the other without any gaps in service and without any overlaps also). She is not working now. When she was working in 3rd organization, she was able to get UAN. In this UAN, PF accounts of second organization and third organization are mapped/moved. Somehow, first organization’s PF account not moved to this UAN. My queries are:- 1) Can she move first organization’s PF account to the above UAN now? If so, what is the procedure to move? 2) Can she withdraw the full PF amount available in UAN now through online mode without moving first organization’s PF account to UAN and claim PF amount accumulated through first organization at a later date through offline mode? 3) Somewhere I read that even for claiming PF amount available in UAN, first we need to merge the accounts in UAN. Is it correct? When two accounts are already available in UAN, why merging is required? Not able to understand merging point clearly. If merging is required, how to merge the accounts? Or can she withdraw one after the other? It would be great if suitable advice / guidance is given to us. Best regards Murali Krishna

Ans: Hello;

Answers to your queries as given below:

1. Yes she may link First company pf with this UAN.

2. Yes, but it is advisable to withdraw entire pf in one go! The complexity of withdrawing from old pf account not linked to current UAN will only increase with time.

3. Merging multiple pf accounts under single UAN(active) is a simple online process(EPFO provides step by step guide on their website for the same, even other reliable resources are available). It is essential to do so before withdrawal.

Best wishes;

My son has secured 85% in ICSE 12 th board with PCM, Eng n Mass communication. In PCM group he has secured 61% only hence not eligible for BITSAT, could not qualify JEE mains (20percentile). NDA not cleared. Appeared in WBJEE. Result awaited. Thru CUET, he wants to study English literature in the best colleges of India. He is very good at English n secured 98%. He is the only child, we want him to be technical graduate, so that he is employable and can take over from his father, who worked with ALFALAVAL, now has his own techmart company and is a dealer of ALFALAVAL a Swedish MNC in heavy Engg
Ans: Your son’s 98% in English and 85% overall in ICSE align strongly with BA English (Hons) at top CUET colleges like St. Stephen’s College (DU), Lady Shri Ram College, or Christ University, which prioritize language proficiency and holistic profiles. However, to balance technical employability, consider interdisciplinary programs such as BA English with Digital Humanities (DU) or Integrated BA+MA in English (EFLU Hyderabad), supplemented by certifications in technical writing, project management, or business analytics to align with your family’s engineering business. Alternatively, explore BSc in Computer Applications at Ambedkar University Delhi (via CUET’s General Test) or BA Economics with Data Science (JMI), blending analytical skills with humanities. If WBJEE results permit, Jadavpur University’s Comparative Literature offers flexibility to minor in technical electives. Prioritize institutions like DU or Christ University for their industry networks, enabling internships in tech-adjacent roles (content strategy, technical documentation) while maintaining literary rigor. All the BEST for your Son's Admission & a Prosperous Future!
