A.Dear Client,
It is important to rectify the discrepancy between the joining date and exit date of the company. If there is an overlap in the PF records it might show dual employment during the background verification. So, in this case, you need to approach the office of the Regional P F Commissioner and seek to resolve the anomaly between the appointment date and exit date in EPF records. Further, you need to submit a joint declaration form, a form jointly signed by the employer and employee to rectify the details of the member in PF records. On the receipt of this declaration, the regional PF commissioner can correct the wrong information entered into the employees' PF accounts. If the employer refuses to sign the joint declaration or cooperate in that regard, a member of EPFO can file a complaint against them using the EPF i-Grievance Management System at www. https://epfigms.gov.in/. Thereby, you will be able to correct the details and overcome the problem of dual employment.
Hope it helps.
Thank you.

A.Dear Client,
When your EPF record shows an anomaly in the joining date in both the A & B Company, then until and unless the concerned employers rectify that anomaly, PF records will show dual employment. A joint declaration form(JDF) 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(JDF) with correct details like father’s name, joining date, Exit date, etc., as these details will be verified with the Aadhaar. The EPF member or employee should submit the joint declaration form countersigned by the concerned employer who entered the wrong data by mistake to the regional PF office with which the company or establishment is registered. Only an employer can rectify the error in the employment record of the EPFO. So if an employee finds an error in the database of EPF Account, he/she should contact present or previous employers and get it corrected. In the given situation, to resolve the issue of dual employment 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 rectify any anomaly in EPF records of a member on receipt of JDF. In case of non-cooperation from the employer, a member of the EPF Account can file a complaint against them using the EPF i-Grievance Management System (www. https://epfigms.gov.in/). Once you succeed in wiping out the stigma of dual employment or overlapping of service from your EPF records with the cooperation of your employers, your EPF records showing the correct date of employment shall be restored.
