EPFO Upadte: Now Check Your PF Balance Instantly with Just a Missed Call or SMS – No Internet Required!

The Employees' Provident Fund Organisation (EPFO) has made it easier than ever for millions of salaried individuals to access their PF account balance. You no longer need an app or even an internet connection to check your Provident Fund balance. Thanks to a simple and free-of-cost system introduced by EPFO, a missed call or a quick SMS is all it takes to know your current PF status.

Let’s understand how this new system works and how you can use it efficiently.

✅ Two Simple Ways to Check Your PF Balance 1. Via Missed Call

EPFO has launched this facility for users whose mobile numbers are linked to their Universal Account Number (UAN). All you need to do is give a missed call to 9966044425 from your registered mobile number. Within seconds, you will receive an SMS from EPFO with your PF balance details.

Highlights:

• The service is completely free.

• It works 24×7, including weekends and holidays.

• No internet or smartphone is required.

2. Via SMS

To receive your PF balance via SMS, send a message in the following format from your registered number:

EPFOHO
For example, if you want the details in Hindi, type:
EPFOHO UAN HIN

Send this SMS to 7738299899.

This SMS-based service is available in 10 Indian languages, including English, Hindi, Punjabi, Gujarati, Marathi, Kannada, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, Bengali, and Assamese.

⚠️ Important Points to Keep in Mind

• Your UAN must be activated.

• Your mobile number should be linked with your UAN.

• To ensure smooth service, your Aadhaar, PAN, and bank account details should be seeded with your UAN.

• Once your UAN is active, you can not only check your balance but also download your e-passbook.

💡 Why Is This Feature Beneficial?

This initiative is particularly valuable for employees who do not have access to smartphones or internet services. People living in rural or remote areas can now easily stay updated about their PF contributions without visiting any office or logging into websites.

It’s a convenient, secure, and round-the-clock solution designed to bring more transparency and ease for India's vast workforce.

So next time you wonder about your PF balance, just give a missed call or drop an SMS—and get the details instantly!
