A.Dear Client,

In the current situation, consider addressing your grievance by directly meeting the administrative/executive officer or the chairman of the Municipality before resorting to legal action. If the issue persists, you may apply to the competent court, seeking an ad interim injunction under Rule 1 or 2 of Order 39 of the CPC. Additionally, filing a suit for public nuisance under Section 268 of the Indian Penal Code is an option. Seeking guidance from an advocate is recommended for proper steps in resolving the issue effectively.

A.Dear Client,

Anomalies in EPF records, such as overlapping service dates and discrepancies in A & B Company details, can lead to withdrawal issues. To rectify such errors, a joint declaration form, signed by both the employee and employer, must be submitted to the regional PF commissioner. The form includes corrected and incorrect particulars, the date of submission, and supporting self-attested identity proof documents. Mismatches can be reported through the EPF i-Grievance Management System. Employers play a crucial role in updating service history, and employees should contact them for corrections. Background verification checks, vital for hiring, rely on accurate EPFO records. For resolution, contact the Regional PF Commissioner.

A.Dear Client,
The overlapping in service in respect of previous and present establishment and any anomaly or discrepancy in EPF records in respect of a fund of any registered member is a ground of future dispute. When your EPF record shows an anomaly in the joining and exit date in both the A & B Company which is contradictory to each other due to the miss-posting of dates in the PF records by your ex-employers, until and unless those anomalies are rectified by the concerned employers, your request for withdrawal and closure of PF account would not be processed by the PF Authority. A joint declaration form is used to correct Provident Fund (PF) member details. It is a combined form that the employee and employer sign and submit to the regional PF commissioner to update the wrong information entered in the employees’ PF accounts. An EPF member should fill out the joint declaration form to correct details like father’s name, joining date, Exit date etc., as these details will be verified against the Aadhaar. The EPF members or employees should physically submit the joint declaration form to the regional PF office with which the company or establishment is registered. The employees should enter the following details on the joint declaration form EPF: Date of form submission, Regional PF commissioner address, Name and company name , Correct particulars, i.e., particulars that need to be corrected or updated in the PF member account, Wrong particulars, i.e., particulars that have been wrongly entered in the PF member account, Signature of the applicant, name of the authorized signatory for the establishment and signature of establishment with its seal. After filling in the above details on the form, the employees should attach self-attested identity proof documents to support the correction claim and submit the form to the regional EPFO office where the establishments are registered. The PF office accepts the following self-attested documents to make the changes in the PF member account details like PAN Card Voters I /Card, Passport, Driving License, Aadhar Card. If there is any mismatch between the EPFO and EPF member records, then an individual can file a complaint using the EPF i-Grievance Management System (www. https://epfigms.gov.in/). An individual is required to provide documentary evidence where the mismatch is occurring. Documentary evidence can include salary slips showing EPF contribution, EPF statements shared by the employer, etc. An employee cannot update the service history. Only an employer can rectify the error in the employment record of the EPFO. So if an employee finds an error in the database, they should contact their present or previous employers and get it corrected. Further, Background verification(BGV) check is a process many organizations carry out in order to verify the information provided by the candidate during hiring. Verification of EPFO records through UAN is critical for conducting employee background checks because it allows employers to confirm that their employees are not using false or stolen identities to gain employment. In case of a negative background verification check an employer can even reject the employment of the candidate. In the given situation, to resolve the issue of overlapping in the P F records of both employers, you need to approach the office of the Regional P F Commissioner who is the competent authority to resolve any anomaly arising out of date of appointment and date of discharge in EPF records
