How to check PF Balance with UAN number
To check your PF balance with UAN number, you can use the Member Passbook facility provided by the Employees’ Provident Fund Organisation (EPFO). After registering on the Unified Member Portal, your passbook will be available after 6 hours.
How to check PF balance using EPFO portal
To verify your EPF balance, it is essential to have your Universal Account Number (UAN) activated by your employer. UAN serves as a unique identification number for employees enrolled in the EPF scheme, ensuring a seamless online operation of EPF services, including balance checks, withdrawals, and loan applications.
After activating your UAN, follow these steps:
- Visit the EPFO portal and select "For Employees" under the "Our Services" tab.
- Click on "Member Passbook" in the "Services" section.
- Log in with your activated UAN number and password.
- Choose the relevant "Member ID" and click on "View Passbook [Old: Full]."
- Your PF details will be presented on the screen.
- To retain a record, use the "Download Passbook" option to print the passbook.
For those planning retirement, combining EPF savings with Fixed Deposits (FDs) is a smart way to build a secure future. FDs provide stable growth, and unlike EPF, they allow you to access funds at a predetermined maturity date. This makes them ideal for achieving medium-term financial goals while keeping retirement savings untouched. Click here and book an FD now!
