Check how to know the PF balance On the EPFO portal
EPFO members said the e-booklet portal had been down since last week.
EPF booklet: The ability to access and download the Employees Provident Fund e-book through the EPFO portal started operating normally on Thursday. Earlier, several PF subscribers complained on social media pointing out that the e-booklet was not accessible on EPFO’s dedicated portal.
