In that case can I ask PF department about money order.

authority to reject my PF claim if I asked to deposit PF amount
to my joint account only?

4. If all above condition is not acceptable to PF office then what is

I think PF can transferred in your joint account. If you are exiting the company, you have two options - either to transfer it to your PF account in the new company or transfer it to your bank account.
While exiting, you need to provide details regarding this and if u choose transfer to bank account then you need to provide bank details, which need not be your salaried account.
If you need to transfer it to your new companies PF account, then you need to fill a form in your new company for the same.

Hi,

For your 1st question I would say,Sam is absolutely right. You can definitely get your PF transfered to your joint account. I did the same thing. When I was leaving I filled up a form which asked all the bank/account details and I got the PF transfered to my joint account.

1. Yes, you can ask PF department to deposit your PF amount into your joint account as long as you are providing blank cancelled cheque to them (with your name first).

2. No money order required since you are entitle to receive your amount to your joint a/c.

3. Previous company can assist you on this since they have credited your salary to this joint account earlier.

4. PF office will accept the condition, first reason is you and company authorize to do so with your contact and other personal details, including your wife detail in spouse column (proof for joint a/c matching).

NRE can't open saving a/c actually when they work in abroad but they can open an NRE a/c only. If you would have already opened SB a/c in the past then you move to abroad, it has no issue but need to inform it to respective bank.
