EPFO new service: The Employees’ Provident Fund Organization (EPFO) has launched a new service for employees. Checking your PF balance requires neither logging in to the website nor using the Umang app. A single missed call will now display your PF balance on your mobile screen. This move will provide relief to millions of employees who were previously frustrated by the repeated login process or internet issues.

EPFO releases new toll-free number
EPFO has released the number 9966044425 for this service. By giving a missed call to this number at any time, your PF account information will be sent via SMS within a few seconds. The message will contain your account’s current balance and latest contribution. However, this facility is only available to employees whose mobile number is already registered in EPFO records. The missed call must be made from the number linked to your PF account.
Information will be available even without internet access.
This new service is especially beneficial for employees who live in remote areas or lack regular internet access. Now, even such employees can check their balance in just a few seconds by simply giving a missed call, without the need for an app or website to access their account information. This move by the EPFO is considered a major effort towards digital inclusion.

Other Options for Checking PF Balance
If you don’t want to use the missed call service, you can also check your PF balance through other EPFO services. This information can also be obtained through the Umang app, the EPFO’s official website, or SMS service. To do this, type “EPFOHO UAN ENG” from your mobile and send it to 7738299899. Here, “ENG” stands for English. If you prefer information in your language, you can replace ENG with the language code, such as HIN for Hindi, MAR for Marathi, or TAM for Tamil.
