Dear Mr.Chetan,
If the deceased employee has nominated his wife, EPF office is bound to settle the claims to the widow after receiving the appropriate claim form. If no nomination has been done earlier, the survivors of the deceased has to get the death and legal heir certificate of the deceased from the local revenue authorities and annexe the death and legal heir certificate to the claim form and submit to the EPF authorities.
In case of undue delay in settlement grievance redressal authorities can be approached for early settlement.
