Hi Sir,
I left NCC 3 years back but I, didn't get my pf balance to my account. I checked with my company, they said my account is not operative. I went to my company again. I filled the form and submitted to my company(NCC) but today is almost 4 months over, there is no information about my pf at all in EPFO site. The availability data is not updated since April for Hyderabad EPFO .
Please update the data for Hyderabad EPFO Office. So, that i can check my PF status.
