How Can You Withdraw Your PF Amount from ATMs? Step-by-Step Guide & Key Details News24 –


Union Labour Minister Mansukh Mandaviya announced a significant update on the Employees’ Provident Fund Organisation (EPFO) during an event in Hyderabad. He revealed that EPFO is introducing banking-like services, including ATM-based withdrawals and several digital features aimed at simplifying transactions.

What is EPFO 3.0?

EPFO 3.0 represents a major technological upgrade to the traditional EPFO system. Currently, withdrawing PF funds is a cumbersome process involving extensive paperwork and employer approvals. With EPFO 3.0, employees will no longer need to navigate lengthy documentation or visit EPF offices. Instead, they will be able to withdraw their PF money instantly through ATMs, just like a regular bank withdrawal.

How To Manage EPFO Through UAN

Mansukh Mandaviya explained that EPFO 3.0 will make the system similar to a bank. The system allows subscribers to manage their accounts easily using their Universal Account Number (UAN). However, details regarding withdrawal limits from ATMs will be announced later.

Which Services Are Set to Change?

EPFO 3.0 is a significant upgrade aimed at making fund withdrawals, claim settlements, and pension transfers faster and more seamless. This modernization effort focuses on eliminating delays and enhancing user convenience.

With new digital tools, managing PF accounts will become much easier. Union Labour Minister Mansukh Mandaviya emphasized that since the money in EPFO accounts rightfully belongs to employees, they should have unrestricted access to it whenever needed—without bureaucratic hurdles or long waiting periods.
