  • The Employees’ Provident Fund Organisation (EPFO) has announced the several significant updates to its services and guidelines that will be implemented in 2025.
  • The updated process classifies members into three groups for easier handling:
    • Members with Aadhaar-based UANs (post-October 2017): Requests are processed online.
    • Members with UANs validated by Aadhaar (pre-October 2017): Requests are also processed online.
    • Members without Aadhaar-validated UANs or deceased members: Requests are submitted physically.
  • The Pensioners will soon be able to withdraw their pensions from any bank in the country, without requiring additional verification.
  • EPFO members will soon be able to withdraw their provident fund balance via ATMs.
  • EPFO is considering offering its members the option to invest directly in equities, beyond ETFs.
  • The latest data shows a decrease in formal job creation, with a five-month low of 1.34 million new EPFO members in October 2024.
