EPFO allows partial withdrawal from the provident fund accounts for purposes such as education, marriage, illness and house construction. Through its unified portal, unifiedportal-emp.epfindia.gov.in, EPFO enables eligible subscribers to apply for a withdrawal from the EPF account. Once the KYC (know your customer) details provided by such applicants are approved, the PF money is transferred to the subscriber's bank account within 10 days, EPFOÂ said on Twitter.
