Best Answer

This is a portion of our salary that our employer deducts every month. This money is remitted to the government of India's PF trust. This money is used by our government for its cash needs. Once we retire or close our PF account, the money that has accumulated against our name would be given back to us. The money in our PF account grows at the rate of 8.5% per annum compounded every year.

Usually the PF amount is 12% of your Basic salary.

What to do if you are not being paid your provident fund after resignation?

Possibly, you have not turned in the correct forms. Ask Provident or your HR to send you the forms. To obtain your 401K money, you need to set up an IRA at a bank, or elsewhere, and fill out the Provident papers with the account number and what the check should be mailed to (the bank will provide this info if you bring the forms). Avoid getting the payout directly to yourself since this will subject you to 20% taxes and penalties for early withdrawal--instead keep the IRA going and do not spend the money.
