Dear Sir,

I worked at a retail garment brand for 5.7 months and resigned on 11/05/2012. However, I have not yet received my full and final settlement. They are not providing me with a proper response. When I asked them to fill my PF form, they said I have to wait until my full and final settlement is processed because they need to attach the settlement papers with the PF form. Is this correct? Kindly clarify this for me.
