EPFO Deadline Extended: Employees’ Provident Fund Organization (EPFO) has extended the deadline for applying for higher pension till July 11. Earlier, the Employees Provident Fund had given the last chance to apply for higher pension till June 26, 2023.
But, now you have to compulsorily apply by July 11 to get higher pension. Although the high pension scheme is not for everyone. According to the decision issued by the Supreme Court on November 4, only a few members of EPF can apply.
Last date has been extended twice
Employees’ Provident Fund Organization has informed people eligible for higher pension that they should apply as soon as possible, otherwise you will not be entitled to get higher pension after the last date is over. It has already been extended twice by EPFO. In such a situation, the possibility of doing it further seems less.
EPFO issued circulars
For how you can apply for higher pension, EPFO has issued some circulars on how employees can apply for higher pension from EPS. The retirement fund body has introduced an online link on the Member Services Portal to submit its joint application form. You must have some important documents while applying.
