Hi all,

I received 1st month's salary in new organization, but didn't receive pf text message on phone.

As per my information, as I joined new company, a new pf account will be created and pf amount will be added to that account every month. But, I didn't receive any message. So, I am unsure if new account has been created or not.

Also, I need to transfer pf from previous employer to new employer.

But, I am unaware of the process.

Can anyone please help me, how to proceed?

Thanks!
