EPFO will host a live session on the Pradhan Mantri Viksit Bharat Rozgar Yojana (PM-VBRY) on 8 September at 12 pm. Here’s what employees and employers can ask during the session, along with the scheme’s key benefits, incentives, and eligibility criteria.

EPFO is urging eligible PF trusts to use a one-time amnesty scheme to retrospectively regularise their exemption status. The scheme offers relief from certain compliance requirements and past proceedings, with applications open until 28 December 2026.

Employees moving abroad and foreign nationals working in India may fall under EPFO’s International Worker rules, which can affect PF contributions, withdrawals, pension eligibility and social-security coverage.

The EPFO is expected to launch E-PRAAPTI by the end of August to help members recover money lying in old or inactive PF accounts. The Aadhaar-based portal aims to simplify account tracing, reduce paperwork, enable UAN linking, and make claims faster through a digital process.

EPFO's e-Office application will be unavailable from 6 pm to 9.30 pm today due to a scheduled system upgrade. Members may experience temporary service delays while key UMANG services remain available. Here's what EPF subscribers and employers need to know.
