Understanding EPF Form-2 Nomination Process: Online Filing and Submission Clarifications

From "Thiyagu": In view of most of the employers not submitting the EPF Nomination Form 2 to the PF office, kindly clarify if submitting the EPF Nomination Form 2 is compulsory. If not submitted, what actions are taken by the EPF office?

Right now, the nomination process is online, to be completed by members through their UAN login and digitally approved by the employer.

Thank you. If you have any official notifications related to this, kindly share if possible.

Please let me know if you need further assistance or have any other questions.

Thank you, sir. So, don't want to submit Form-2 at the EPF Office?

Thiyagu,

Think before you pose a question. If the nominations are updated online, would you need to submit a physical form?

Sir,

But yet not an official notification from EPFO. That only causes confusion because in the future, EPFO inspection may raise questions and impose penalties.

Thank you.

When they want to file nominations online, they have done away with the physical form. Trust us.

Dear Shrikant,

Yesterday, I asked EPFO about this doubt, and they mentioned that submitting FORM-2 is compulsory.
