Thank you for reading my blog. Hope you get your hard earned money much sooner.

If you can directly submit the form to PF office after duly getting is signed from your employer you can avoid 10-15 days of transit time through courier. 

I have read that if you get it signed by higher authority in PF office claiming any urgency you can get your money in 1 or 2 days. After all its your money go for it. 

Please check link below if you can do your claim online instead of my above offline process
