It is a requirement by law that every employee who works in either a private or a public organisation and whose monthly gross income is over 6,500 rupees should enroll in an Employee Provident Fund Scheme. This should ideally be from the date of commencement of employment as stipulated in the Employee Provident Act of 1952. As an employee having joined an EPF you will sometimes need to make a claim. In that case do you need to be physically presenting yourself to the local EPFO office to find out about the status of your claim? Of course not. You can check your claim status from any computer or device with an internet connection.
