Dear Community,
I have a situation where I worked for two companies. 1st company (April 14 to May 18) 4.1 years and 2nd company (May 18 to Feb 19) 9 months hence my total service as an employee is 4.10 years. Now I dont contribute to the EPFO and working as a freelancer. I have query regarding my PF, lets say for a time being i am not contributing to the EPFO and also dont wish to withdraw the amount now, as I expect to join new company 6 months later (by Aug 19). So If I join a company again in Aug'19 and start contributing to the EPFO will my EPFO duration be continued with previous total of 4.10 years? If not, do I only left with choice of withdrawal with 10% TDS before 5 yrs of service.
EPS: Also please suggest what will happen to my EPS in same scenario. what i need to do.
Please note my PF amount is more than 50000 & my recent company was having PF trust.
Thank you for your help.
