Forms are available in market, with o/o RPFC, and on line : https://epfindia.nic.in/

If ex-employer is not available/company is closed, you can get your signature attested by:

1.Manager of a bank.
2.By any gazetted officer.
3.Member of the Central Board of Trustees./ committee/ Regional Committee (Employees'
Provident Fund Organization).
4.Magistrate/ Post/ Sub Post Master/ President of Village Panchayat/ Notary Public.

Your father must be having PF accumulation reports and PF number.

If it is more than 25 years old PF accounts, probably he might have closed the PF accounts and received the PF settlements earlier itself and might have forgotten the same. Hence please check your father's bank accounts. Also it is to be noted that if the PF remittance was made less than 6 months, you will be able to receive only member's accumulations (Form 19 only)  If you father's records show the PF account code number of the employer it will be easier. Otherwise, approach the PF office nearby, with the records like the PF account number, yearly contribution details till leaving the company and the reason why it has not been claimed for the last 25 years and the present residence proof, identity proof and bank account., etc. based on which they may be able to help.
