EPFO Passbook Portal Down: Angry PF Subscribers Share Grievance On Social Media
EPF passbook is a facility that shows you your EPF account balance, month-on-month.

EPF Passbook: The facility to access and download Employees’ Provident Fund passbook through EPFO portal has not worked since the last couple of days, said several users who were not able to view their passbook online on the dedicated portal of the EPFO.

EPF passbook is a facility that shows you your EPF account balance, month-on-month.

There are other ways to check the PF balance other than the EPFO portal.

PF subscribers highlighted that they were not able to access their e-passbook. One such user tweeted on April 21, “Member passbook is still down! I know there is no point telling you guys… but I just wish to attract attention of others tagged in here!

To this EPFO replied saying that the organisation is looking into the matter.

“Dear member, we regret the inconvenience. The concerned team is looking into the matter. Kindly wait for some time. The matter will be resolved shortly,” EPFO tweeted.

Another user on Sunday said, “Don’t understand why the EPFO site is always under maintenance. I am seeing this message for the last 2 weeks continuously, and this has always been the case when it comes to EPFO. This is absurd that, as a taxpayer, you cannot login and check your passbook.”

One user claimed that the e-passbook facility has not been working since the last 15 days.

Reportedly, it is the second time in this year that the e-passbook facility on EPFO portal is down due to technical glitches. In January, EPF subscribers had said the passbook facility was not working, and showing an error — ‘EPFO services are not available on account of Technical Maintenance related issues. Inconvenience is regretted’ — when they tried to access their passbook.

It is important to regularly check your EPF passbook to ensure that your employer is depositing the correct amount into your account and that there are no discrepancies in your contributions.

EPFO

Employee Provident Fund is a savings scheme for employees in India, which is managed by the Employees’ Provident Fund Organisation (EPFO). The EPF scheme was introduced by the Government of India to help employees save a part of their salary every month, which can be used as a retirement fund.

Under the EPF scheme, both the employer and the employee make a contribution towards the employee’s EPF account every month.

The EPF scheme offers several benefits to employees, including tax benefits, financial security in retirement, and the ability to take a loan or withdraw money in certain circumstances. Employees can access their EPF account details offline (through missed call, SMS) and online through the EPFO’s website or mobile app.

  • Visit the official EPFO (Employees’ Provident Fund Organisation) website: https://www.epfindia.gov.in/site_en/index.php
  • On the homepage, click on the “For Employees” option under the “Our Services” section.
