If you have more than one Universal Account Number for EPF, do this now

The Employee Provident Fund Organisation allows individuals to only have one Universal Account Number. It said that in case two UANs have been issued, the member should apply to transfer money from the previous EPF account to the new one. In case the previous employer was still making payments to the old account, EPFO said, its system would recognise the active UAN against the deactivated one and redirect the funds to the active account. Those with multiple UANs must log in to their old account and transfer the funds to the new one, said Jain. How to merge UAN accounts Kunal Kabra, chief executive of Kustodian Life, said that to merge two UAN accounts, you simply need to log in to their current UAN account, navigate to the ‘Online Services’ section, and select ‘One Member One EPF Account’.
