PLEASE HELP !!!!.....EPFO showing overlapping employment due to notice period PF contribution - can this be corrected or will it affect future PF claims?
Hi everyone,
I'm facing an issue with my EPFO service history and would appreciate any guidance from someone who has dealt with a similar situation.
Here's the timeline:
- I resigned from Company A on 8 Aug 2025.
- My resignation acceptance email clearly stated that I was "released from the services with immediate effect."
- Based on that, I joined Company B on 11 Aug 2025.
- Company B started depositing PF from my joining date (11 Aug).
Much later, I found that Company A had:
- paid me for a 15-day notice period,
- deposited PF for that period, and
- marked my EPFO Date of Exit as 22 Aug 2025.
This has created an overlap in my EPFO service history from 11 Aug to 22 Aug 2025.
I contacted Company A requesting a correction. They replied that:
- I was released with effect from 8 Aug 2025,
- they paid for the 15-day notice period as per my employment terms, therefore PF contributions were deposited till 22 Aug,
- and they cannot modify the PF exit date now and refusing to cooperate.
My questions are:
- Is there any provision under EPFO to correct the Date of Exit in such a case?
- If the employer refuses to modify it, can EPFO make any correction based on supporting documents?
- Will this overlap create problems in future PF transfers or withdrawals?
- Has anyone here successfully resolved a similar issue?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
