They will be able to view their PF account balance directly on UPI, instantly withdraw up to Rs 1 lakh through an automated system, and choose their preferred bank account for transfers.&#8221;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Moving ahead, the withdrawal options have been expanded to include funds for housing, education, and marriage, along with existing provisions for sickness, Dawra said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Expected Huge Improvement In Processing Time<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to the labour and employment secretary, &#8220;The EPFO has made significant strides in digitalizing its processes, integrating over 120 databases to streamline the withdrawal process. Claim processing time has been dramatically reduced to just 3 days, with 95% of claims now automated and plans to further simplify the process underway.&#8221;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If we consider the present process, EPFO members cannot withdraw PF through UPI.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After introduction of UPI, the claim process is expected to be completed within hours or even minutes which is much better compared to the current 2\u20133 days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As we have already witnessed that UPI has simplified digital payments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, this feature is most likely expected to make PF withdrawals easier for the individual.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.khanglobalstudies.com\/blog\/what-is-epfo\/\">Image Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In an aim to improve efficiency and reduce transaction time,, the Employees&#8217; Provident Fund Organisation (EPFO) is set to introduce UPI for processing claims, said labour and employment secretary Sumita Dawra on Tuesday.
