Employees’ Provident Fund Organization (EPFO) has started a special facility for higher pension. For this, eligible pensioners can now apply online under the combined option on the EPFO ​​member portal. EPFO has allowed this after the decision of the Supreme Court.

Under this, on December 29, 2022, the EPFO ​​had issued a circular related to the implementation of the Supreme Court’s decision for the employees eligible for higher pension. In the circular issued, the EPFO ​​said that pensioners who had deposited salary in excess of Rs 5,000 or Rs 6,500 as an employee and opted for the combined option under EPS with the pre-revised scheme will now get the benefit of higher pension. . EPFO has said that now all such eligible employees will be able to apply online on EPFO’s website.

Supreme Court gave relief

Last year in November 2022, the Supreme Court in its decision upheld the 2014 Employees Pension Scheme amendment. Due to this, EPFO ​​subscribers got another chance to opt for higher pension. All those employees who were members of EPS as on September 1, 2014, were allowed to deposit a maximum of 8.33 per cent of their actual salary in the erstwhile EPS for pension. Under the relevant order of the Supreme Court, the EPS member was given six months to opt for the revised scheme.

Employees who retired before September 1, 2014 for higher pension and opted for the erstwhile pension scheme under the combined option can login to the UAN portal under this special facility of EPFO. Eligible employees can submit their application by visiting this portal. For this, first of all go to the main website of EPFO ​​​​website and then select the option of member login. After this, complete the process by login by choosing the option of UN Portal.
