This query is : Resolved
Hi,
I was working for a company which maintains (exempted) EPF account in Mumbai, after leaving the company I joined another company which has EPF account managed under Delhi EPF office, in 2016 I had got the transfer request to the Delhi office processed and the previous company had sent out the cheque to my company for the transfer. This was submitted to Delhi EPF office but the transfer amount entry is still not coming up in my epf passbook. I realized this in 2019 and since then I have raised multiple grievances with the EPF office but I get a standard reply " credit confirmation has been called for from the cash section, please wait"
I just want to know whom should I approach and how do I process here.
Thanks

This is procedural laps. May send RTI to EPF office for information.

Thanks for all your replies, the last grievance that I had applied has got it resolved, now the amount is transferred to my new EPF account.
Just a followup question on this, the EPF transfer request had been raised in Nov-2016, I think I should be entitled to the interest for these years as this was a lapse from the EPF Account Office. Is my thinking right and if so how can I claim this interest should I be logging in grievance again.

You should claim interest, raise grievance.

no need to claim. as a matter of policy EPFO gives interest on all deposits till finally disbursed.
