Rishabh Sharma: I have lost my brother. How can I withdraw his PF?
Vikash Jain, Co- founder, ShareSamadÂhan, replies:
Only the nominee who is chosen by the deceased employee (at the time of creating his PF account) can apply for PF withdrawal. If the deceased did not nominate anyone at the time, an immediate family member or legal heir/s should submit claims for PF and pension money. The claim can be made by filling in the new Composite Claim Form, or CCF, which has replaced all existing UAN or non-UAN-based claim forms such as Form 19, Form 10C and Form 31. If he does not have a nominee, his legal heir/s will get his full and final PF settlement, pension and employee deposit-linked insurance benefit.
