EPFO Delinking Update - “Pending at DA” approved, now stuck at “Pending at SS”

EPFO Delinking Update - “Pending at DA” approved, now stuck at “Pending at SS”

I wanted to share another update regarding my EPFO delinking issue because this process is becoming extremely frustrating and there is almost no transparency in the system.

My delinking request was initially stuck at “Pending at DA” for many weeks. Around 2 weeks ago I visited EPFO office personally and met the compliance madam handling that section. At that time she clearly said that approval or rejection option was not available in their system.

After multiple follow ups, office visits, CPGRAMS complaints, RTIs and continuous pressure, finally after around 10 days So I again visited the office and the status changed from “Pending at DA” to “Pending at SS”.

I tried to understand what “Pending at SS” means. They informed me it means Pending at the Section Supervisor.

Now again the same story started.

The same madam told me that approval or rejection option is still not available in section supervisor system, also he is on leave for 2 weeks.

Honestly this is becoming difficult to understand.

EPFO issued the new delinking circular on 13 April, but even after more than a month, field offices still seem confused about approvals/Rejection, system access and workflow.

There is:

No proper tracking system

No estimated timeline

No notification when request moves internally

No way for member to know who currently has the request

No option for member to cancel or re-initiate request

We literally have to repeatedly visit office physically just to ask where the file is stuck.

Even when I requested them to reply officially on mail that the delay is due to internal system issue, nobody was ready to give written confirmation.

The most frustrating part is that this issue is affecting employment opportunities and people are expected to keep taking leave from work and repeatedly visit offices without any clarity.

If anyone else is facing “Pending at DA” or “Pending at SS” status in EPFO delinking, please share your experience or timeline.

Need advice regarding delayed flat refund by builder (Mumbai / Navi Mumbai)

Hi everyone,

I need genuine advice regarding a flat cancellation refund issue with a builder in Navi Mumbai.

I had booked a flat in under construction project in Kharghar and paid around ₹9.8 lakh in total (booking amount + taxes etc.). Later, the flat got cancelled from the builder’s side without any prior notice. After that, they asked me to sign cancellation documents, bank details, refund forms etc., which I submitted around 1.5 months ago.

Since then, I have been continuously following up with the developer, accounts team, and staff members through calls, WhatsApp, and emails. Every time they say things like:

  • “2 din me ho jayega”
  • “approval pending hai”
  • “higher authority out of station hai”
  • “accounts team process kar rahi hai”
  • “payment prepare kar rahe hai”

But no exact payment date is being given.

Now they have mostly stopped replying properly. Calls are not picked regularly and messages are seen but often ignored. One person says contact another person. The developer earlier said RTGS hoga, then later they said physical approval/signature is pending.

What is frustrating me more is:

  • flat cancellation was from their side,
  • they already have my money since months (almost 5 months),
  • and the same flat has already been sold again at a higher price.

I am trying to stay polite and professional because I ultimately want my refund smoothly, but mentally this has become very stressful.

I wanted advice from people who have handled similar builder refund situations:

  1. Is this normal delay behavior from builders?
  2. Should I wait more or immediately file RERA complaint?
  3. Does sending legal notice actually help?
  4. Will office visit by friend/family create pressure?
  5. How do you deal mentally with this kind of uncertainty and continuous delay?

Any practical advice would genuinely help.

I’m dealing with an issue with Capgemini related to employment/PF records. I’ve already sent a legal notice, and they replied with an interim response saying they’ll take up to 45 days to review internally.

Before sending the notice, there was already more than a month of follow-ups with no proper resolution.

Just wanted to check:

- Has anyone here sent a legal notice to Capgemini?

- How long did they take to give a final reply?

- Did they actually resolve the issue or just delay further?

- What happened after that — did it go to court or got resolved?

Would really help to know real experiences. Thanks!
