EPFO Update– Provident Fund is a place of trust for private sector employees. And with time, the government has brought several timely changes to this Provident Fund. One such facility is the facility of knowing the PF balance through missed call or message.
Many times, EPFO members do not understand how much money is in the PF. For that, they have to download the application on the phone and register with the Universal Account Number or UAN and then check it. And this method is a little complicated. As a result, ordinary smartphone users cannot check their account balance using this method. And for them, EPFO (Employees’ Provident Fund Organisation) has brought this new facility.
First, you have to give a missed call to 9966044425 from the mobile number registered with the Provident Fund. After a few seconds, a text message will come to your mobile. In that, you will get all the information related to the PF balance. And there is no charge for this missed call.
You can also check the amount of money in your Provident Fund account by sending a text message. You need to send a text message to 738299899 from your registered mobile number. Write EPFOHO{space}UAN{space}ENG there. Then all the information related to your PF account will come to your mobile through a text message.
