Pf exit date noy done by employer
1 week ago
Hi,
I absconded from one company by mutual understanding on march-28-2022 and I didn't informed that I'm joining in another company. But after that they contributed pf money in April 2022 .
In my new employer I got a mail regarding old employer is still active you need to consult the old employer to mark doe.
And after that I consulted my old employer through phone and I asked for my doe but they are rufused to mark my doe on March 28th Or 31st . But I discussed and left the organization on 28th march only. Iasked why they are saying as per our policy you are abconded here so we raised absconding process.so as per our policy and records we will mark your doe on july-01-2022.
I don't know what should do in this case.
If I try to mark my doe it will over lap my current employer because my doj is 1-04-2022.
I have only march payslip which they held and processed my salary in April.
Please suggest me the solution.
And FYI in epfo the exit is in my hands only but it is showing only the April month. It is not reflecting the march month.
I asked to previous employer but they are not accepting my request to update my doe on March month.
Please approach the following authority or similar authority in a state

From the query, it appears that your previous employer had initiated disciplinary action against you for your unauthorized absence from work and based on the proven misconduct they dismissed you from service on 01/07/2022. Accordingly, your previous employer updated the EPF records mentioning the date of exit as 01/07/2022. An established policy or rules of an establishment cannot be altered for the personal benefit of an employee. You have to approach your previous employer for rectification of EPF Records. 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need to approach the office of Regional P F Commissioner who is the competent authority to resolve any anomaly arising out of date of appointment and date of exit in EPF records. A joint declaration form is used to correct Provident Fund (PF) member details. It is a combined form that the employee and employer jointly sign and submit to the regional PF commissioner to rectify the wrong information entered into the employees’ PF accounts. On facing non-cooperation from your previous employer, a member of EPFOl 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 overlapping or dual employment from your EPF records with the cooperation of your previous and present employer, your employment with the new company will be restored/protected with clean EPF records.
Firstly you have breached the contract of employer and employee hence once the due process of resignation is followed only then you would be eligible for the PF. Please get back with your old employer and follow the procedure required by the company or else it would be an issue in all the other places that you would work
