PF Transfer When Changing Jobs - Form 13 Complete Process

Apr 12, 2026 1 min read

Why PF Transfer is Important

When you change jobs, your PF account does not automatically move to your new employer. If you do not transfer, you end up with multiple PF accounts, which causes problems during final withdrawal.

Documents Required for PF Transfer

  • UAN of previous and current employer
  • Date of joining and date of exit from previous company
  • Aadhaar card linked to UAN
  • Bank account details

Step-by-Step Transfer Process

Step 1: Login to UAN portal with your credentials

Step 2: Go to "Online Services" and select "One Member - One EPF Account"

Step 3: Fill Form 13 with your previous and current employment details

Step 4: Submit and note the tracking ID

How Long Does Transfer Take?

Normally, PF transfer takes 20-30 days after both employers approve the request. You can track the status online using your tracking ID.

Important: Make sure your Date of Exit is marked by your previous employer before initiating transfer. Otherwise, the claim will be rejected.
