A.Dear client,
As ,per the procedure in the EPF office if the employee has resigned from service and no further deposits are made in the EPF account for a period of one year, the account is designated as "uncalimed deposit account" (UCD) and no interest is credited to the account. However interest will be paid when the employee submits his application for refund of the amount. You may therefore get in touch with your ex employer through whom you have to submit the refund application form. You can down load the prescribed application form on line.
Thank you.

Sir, when I came to know that one account is declared UCD and got transferred the whole fund from UCD acct to new acct of the same employer on transfer posting, EPFO doesn't pay interest. Application submitted regarding demand of interest to both office. But no action taken. Any possibility to get back my dues vide legal assistance,pls highlight.
