This circular outlines the expanded procedure for de-linking incorrectly linked Member IDs (MID) in the EPFO system. It allows members to request de-linking through the member portal, subject to specific conditions such as the number of contributions received. The process involves employer verification, regional office review, and final approval by the designated authority. Cases where claims are already processed, settled, or pending, or where more than six contributions have been received, are excluded from this facility. Detailed instructions and a user manual are provided to ensure accurate implementation and prevent grievances.
