PF Interest Continues After Job Exit: EPFO Rules

• Your PF account remains active and continues to earn interest even after you leave your job.
• Interest accrues on your PF balance until you turn 58, and potentially up to 61 years of age if not withdrawn.
• After 61, the PF account becomes inactive and stops earning interest, but the principal amount remains safe and can be withdrawn as per rules.
• PF withdrawal is an online process via the EPFO website, typically taking 7-8 working days, with a current interest rate of approximately 8.25%.

Why It Matters: Your PF money continues earning interest long after you leave a job, securing your future.
