EPF e-passbook facility down again

The e-passbook service has been unavailable for the past few days, which has raised concerns among EPF subscribers. Through its portal, it provides members a variety of online services. However, members are not able to download their e-passbooks via the EPFO website or on the Umang app.

Some EPF members used Twitter to express their dissatisfaction and urged the EPFO board to intervene. To most of the tweets, the EPFO replied: “Dear member, we regret the inconvenience. The concerned team is looking into the matter. Kindly wait for some time. The matter will be resolved shortly.

EPF members have faced a similar problem previously in the last few months.

What is EPF
Employees contribute a specific amount of their pay to the EPF scheme. Similarly, your employer will contribute an equal amount to this as well. The Employee Provident Fund Organization then receives the combined sum (EPFO). On this sum deposited with EPFO, you also continue to accrue a certain rate of interest each year. The Employees Provident Fund Organisation (EPFO) has fixed the interest rate at 8.15% for financial year 2022-23.
